Heretia Lumumba is a pathogen acquired by swimming in the Lamumba river, a tributary of the Zambesi. Those afflicted suffer from Grandiosity, Hypersensitivity and Proctalgia fugax. There is no cure.

Quoted from the Chookopedia.

Chook had a great laugh well done! hahahahha

What's Chookopediaspeak for Total W$*&ker

I think he is over rated as a player, has diminishing value and is just a pain

we'd have to run all of our media past him for approval !!! :rolleyes:

Pros:

Would provide the attacking run we so desperately need

Has a strong , mature body, is quick. Also desperately needed

Haven't heard much from him this year. Has he finally shut up?

Cons:

He cant kick

He cant kick

He cant kick

Tool

Yes definitely for HL. Whoever controls the steering wheel in Demonland must act on some of the rubbish comments in this thread. Pathetic commentary. Pathetic gutter dribble.

Irony at it's best..

Yes for sure. In case you've forgotten, we currently have melbournes playing list. None can kick. Harry/heretiririw is an explosive line breaking premiership player who is not past his prime. A running half back, wow, can't have that at melbourne, wouldn't fit in with the rest of our list. The only problem I can see is that he might struggle to adjust to not playing on from marks, and chipping backwards to a turnover rather than breaking the lines forwards and giving our forwards a chance.

Probably the most overrated player in the competition, to say nothing of his "holier than thou" attitude. I'd almost rather get Gary Moorcroft back.

Harry would definitely take offence.

If he wasn't busy boring everyone to death.

Anyone got any football reasons for passing, or is it all just personal?

In a team game, where one individual annoys people, is precious, creates attention and derives dirty satisfaction from drama, I do not care a hoot what their footy skills are like. They create a management headache from day dot. We have neither the skill, team strength or culture to tolerate him. Goodness, we cannot even tolerate the solid under-performers we have, much less a big stage drama like Heretier.

No.

We should leave no stone unturned, would have Crusty the Clown come to Melbourne if he could get into our best 22.

Heretier could get into our best 15 atm, hence we should look closely at him.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

We need fotballers who can run (and not get caught with the ball often), who can hit a target sometimes (he cannot), and who are not sooks !

Most overrated saying in football we let Stevie ARMSTRONG go and he became a Premiership Player. Yes everyone wants to be one but you should be not judged on that alone in regard to your football ability right place right time and a lot of luck can be the difference. Would you say that about Cam Mooney based on his performance in the 99 Grand Final donuts all round

a) Robert Harvey, Lenny Hayes, Gary Ablett Snr, Tony Lockett, Paul Kelly, Rob Flower, Bob Skilton, Matthew Pavlich, Dougie Hawkins, Garry Lyon, Nick Reiwoldt

b) David O'Halloran, Mitchell White, Ricky Olerenshaw, Stuart Anderson, Chad Rintoul, Richard Hadley, Robert Campbell, Darren Milburne

Which players would you take at your club

Why would you bring someone into a club that has a self-centered personality? Plus he's lost his speed and isnt the best decision maker. Might be time he looks to entering polictics as thats what he's always wanted to do isnt it?

NEXT!

I'd call that a footy reason, actually. :)

Probably the line breaking half back we need.

Maybe Roosy can help align his spirit.

He has the run and carry we need off half back, but he only does 2 things: 1) sprint like buggery and kick it as long as he can to the wing 2) sprint like buggery and do a dinky little 15.1 metre kick to a team mate. Too limited for mine, and his long kicking often is kicked straight back at him by opposition players who read his 2 options really well.

No for me.

I would cancel my mebership and not go to games if this muppet or Robinson from Carlscum ever play for us.

Gorgs, you seem to offer to cancel your membership regularly.

I am surprised that your are a member, are you still a member?

How good is Herry, really? All Australian in Collingwood's premiership year when the Pies' superflood caught everyone by surprise and Mick have Herry a licence to run off half back with pretty much no opposition in the vicinity. Once he got it he banged it long into the Collingwood forward line and waited back for the ball to be roosted out to either himself of Maxwell.

Those sorts of easy kicks are a footballer's dream.

Roos would have a different idea of how he wants to Herry to play, but I doubt Herry would be up to the change.

Good kick when roosting it long. Quick when given a chance to wind up.

He's not really what we want, and certainly not at the price he would ask.

Ok, here's a saying that not overrated.

Cemented best 22 in a side that has made finals 8 years in a row. Little better than 98% of our list

If he goes I suppose he will take his thinking chair with him

Could be a bonus!

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc.
