Samael, my cousin is playing his first senior VFL match today for the Scorpions. Can you give me a report on how Dale Gawley goes?

I'm thinking the youngsters like Viney and JKH are the only ones who will be playing finals at this club. The list is just in too awful a condition.

Yep you nailed it P Man. This list is damaged beyond repair.

But Satyr will no doubt hound me again. Not that i care.

I said at the time after 186 everybody had to go who was involved.

I still believe it.

Just to deep a cut to repair.

whats the betting Roos presser:

"Well theyre a contender and we know where we're at. We were given a comprehensive lesson by a better team....yada yada yada ...blah blah blah !!! "

Rome wasnt built in a day, a football team not in a year I realise but this is a throwback to our bad days

Changes for next year. Keep Viney, Dunn, Jones, Howe, Vince, Daws, Jamar and get rid of the rest of the players and recruit new players so that we can play real footy. I'm sick of dumb footballers. Slow and dumb.

Is Jetta injured?

He's crying on the bench...

Really? I didn't think he'd been to bad compared to others. Was surprised he was subbed except for the fact that Terlich had to come on in the back line.

Looked a bit that way but I don't think he was actually crying. Probably just disappointed he was subbed out - which is fair enough.

He appears to be ok.

I have a good view of the bench and he had his head in his hands and Grimesy was comforting him. Must just be upset at his performance.

I don't know why they subbed him though. Tappy has done less than nothing. I would have subbed him off and put Terlich as a defensive forward.

Oh well, deck chairs, Titanic and all that.

In other news it's so cold I have lost feelings in my fingers.

True about Tapscott. The only explanation I can think of (barring an injury to Jetta) is that Roos wants to see as much of Tapscott before the end of the year so that he can make an informed decision on his delisting, which appears inevitable at the moment.

As I said at the start of the year...there's only about 8 AFL level players I would persevere with from the present list. Roos has also killed off any confidence the group may have had after his "teach them how to play AFL, club is strapped for cash" etc comments a few weeks back. Watching a little of the trianing in the week leading up to the Dockers match, they looked rudderless and that is how theyve played since. Roos is the coach.... he is there to get them up each week but atm failing badly.

Not much on the park to work with but hasn't helped his cause of late and is in danger of losing most of the group.

Stating the obvious but massive clean out looming at years end

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,
