He did say Jones should've been captain in 2012, and was ridiculed for doing so.

He might be a muppet, but I don't see thevil1 going out on a limb.

Rightly so. Jones's breakout year was 2013. He was too inconsistent even in 2012. He tried to break tackles and would get caught every time. He's learnt his limitations since and became a much better player for it and deserved the captaincy when he got it. Edited by AdamFarr

I won't go on a Wines/Toumpas bashing post like others and I still think Toumpas could be a good player for us. However, if you are correct that he is homesick, it makes me think back to one of the reasons given for taking Wines over Toumpas and that was the go home factor.

Sad if that turns out to be the case.

Werent dilligent enough were we..... ( but hey that was then.... we're in the now )

Be a win win therefore if he were to be part of a home going for both players..( Dangerfield to Vic, Dimitri to SA )

Until we know we are getting pick 3 for Frawley, nothing will eventuate in regards to Dangerfield. We will need to trade pick 2+3 to get him. And it is easily worth it. He would be the first superstar we've had in decades. He would improve our midfield instantly. He wins contested ball, he breaks away with pace, he throws people out of his way and he kicks goals. He is also a leader. We need quality midfielders, and we need senior leaders. Pick 2+3 is easily worth it and I hope like hell it eventuates. Once we know the Frawley compo it will heat up!

I shouldn't be saying this but I have it on good authority that Dangerfield is ours. He is just waiting to sell his house and get all his possessions moved before the feral locals find out and they torch his house. :)

When you say good authority, are you 100% confident he is coming to us, because you know someone in the inner sanctum , whom you trust,that has told you so?

Your second sentence is very confusing.

I'm not sure if you're attempting to be humorous or if it's serious?

I have a headache.

Consistent enough to win our B&F in 2012.

Neeld opted to appoint Trengove and Grimes, with much fanfare around here.

Neither proven to be good captains - with both lucky to even remain in the side.

Jones should've been captain in 2013, no doubt about that.

Roos rectified this stuff up and Jones is doing a tremendous job thesedays.

Apologies. Getting my years mixed up. The last few have sort of rolled into one. What I meant was that his breakout was 2012, so to give him the captaincy prior to that (ie the start of 2012) didn't make sense to me. I agree he should have been a co captain or captain at the top of 2013.

Yeah, either way it doesn't matter now, all is well.

Just really hope Trengove eventually comes good for us.

Heart breaking to see him in the twos this year, was such a fine junior footballer.

I reckon he'll be alright, particularly if we get Danger. Less pressure on him in the middle.

Is that first line the set up to a C grade joke or do you actually have good info?

We need a [censored] detector on this site. No hang on, we won't get anything posted on here if we did.

I was told from a source that wishes to remain anonymous that this thread has gone to [censored] fast.

It's ok, you can tell them.

The other aspect to this that others have touched upon and I really like, is the message it shouts. MFC open for business. We're intent on getting better; come join us ( and we'll pay the right person bucket loads and reward his prior club handsomely.

Even if we don't land Danger you can be assured either another player and/or his management will be looking on interested.

That in itself may work well for us...I.e. first in, best dressed gets the lollies.

Love trade time...it's fascinating entertainment :)

Yep, the balls are out of the Truss, set free to swing wildly in the breeze... & I think they're liking It.

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to
