Hi Ron,

Agree with you on this, and IMHO Frawley is probably being (ill) advised by his manager who sees in the move a nice little bonus!

(Managers are another topic worth discussing at length one day)!

His manager is doing what good managers do for their clients by informing him,

What The offer from MFC is

What he could get as a free agent at another club

What he could achieve by going to another club (finals)

What clubs are interested in him

What financial benefits in staying/going

The things that a good player manager should do for his client

The decision is chips and chips alone.

Yeah. I don't like fish either.

Early Dawes but if Clark is returning hopefully Chip will been a little keener to stay .

After watching tonight I am not sure the Cats are that good a destination. I think they are on the slide and a long way short of the Hawks and they are showing their age. There will be some ageing champions not there within 2 years and Chip may not find all that success he craves. If he was early smart he would head north to the Gold Coast

Agree with this. While the Cats may not bottom out, I reckon they are on the slide, and success may not be Frawley's; will probably play finals tho'. There again, so might MFC in a year or 2. Don't see how Hawthorn have sal cap room, but does he want to head into the tropics?

A reality is that under current rules Chip CAN'T simply announce (yet) his intentions. Not publicly.

He probably has privately and everyone does the dance of the sugar plum farcies !!

did you mean faeces bub?

Sugar plum faeces!!! I'll let Biffen work with that.

Prunes are the key to my unhealthy lifestyle.

I take it Beezle was not referring to our Persian friends.

Otherwise i might take offence on their behalf.

No...

But possibly applicable

No Biff

Just attempting a whimsical meld of faries and farce.

Seems it wasn't sufficiently obvious.

Must find more informed room to work :rolleyes:

I am loathe to ask but my taste for the bizarre is irresistible. What do you do with the prunes Biff. Is it a solo act or .....FMD. I just don't know sometimes whether I am a sick and disturbed person or it is those who surround me!!

Details please

You dont want to know too much chook but at the risk of sounding like OD and co I ingest them and no matter how much damage I do to my body I rarely get ill and of course I am as regular as an 8 day.

Prunes are of course plums.

Sugary plums.

All cats are grey in the night.

Yours are grey in the day also.

I am Firmly of the belief that even though not Firm at point of exit, the eating of Chillies is the way to avoid bowel cancers and other potential cancers of the stomach!

Reasoning is that it burns every potentially harmful agent entering a developmental phase!

Not sure if evidence can back this up but that is what I have heard!!

Anyone any info regarding this?

i hope you have passed (so to speak) this little pearl of wisdom on to d-l who is land's chief cancer researcher

Picket,

No need to yell this out but Johnny Cash held similar beliefs.

Germans use an observation deck.

We may as well use the same method to predict the future of the MFC as the tea leaves don't seem to be working.

Why is his "Mugg shot" still on the Demonland banner?

Even if he isn't going he doesn't deserve to be there!

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

We'll break down the Match SIM against North Melbourne and wrap up the preseason with insights into training and our latest recruits.
