A snapper or a flathead?

 

The consensus amongst commentators (apart from that stroker Duh-Wayne) is that the MFC have the most promising set of youngsters.

I reckon Jesse knows this too.

Don't know about that mate, extremely bold statement!

The consensus among comentators? it would go something like this IMO:

1. GWS

2. Gold Coast

3. Western Bulldogs

4. St Kilda

5. Melbourne

 

Gws..before or after this trade/ draft ?

I seriously wouldn't put Saints ahead of us.

GC ?..Again after trade ???

lol, it's not what i believe. Just the impression I've got from listening to people in the media.


You've made my day Bub.

Heard from the axiomatic 'reliable source' that Roosy is currently walking around with a smile he just can't wipe of his face. Apparently he is pretty chuffed at landing another 'big fish', which will be announced when the time is right.

I just hope my 'reliable source' is correct.

You have just raised the expectations of all demonlanders. I was getting depressed over the silence at Melbourne. Now I am excited. If this is a rumour and not fact, you will be tracked down and shot at dawn or slowly tortured.

I hope Hogan is just guessing about where Frost will be playing in 2016.

He's far more suited to the back-line.

We beat 3 of those sides and lost to the other by 2 points.

Apart from the Dogs, there's not a great deal in it.

I was merely suggestinv how foolish the media are. Not having a go at yoyrself.

My point is simply...the dynamics of lists now as compared to final lodgement can be quite different.

Ours will be :)

Do I get a last wish?

Do I get a last wish?

Of course you do ivá. Given the consequences of a wrong prediction, your last wish is obvious I would have thought. Perhaps Roosy was smiling with the thought of getting away from Melbourne and landing the big fish in the waters off Hawaii. Of course if your prediction is right, you will go from martyr to hero straight away.

Not my prediction Ernest. It comes from my 'reliable source'

i'va, you mentioned earlier the 'big fish' player responsible for Roos' 'cheshire cat' type smile will be revealed when the time is right.

Can you tell us roughly when that will be...the anticipation is killing me!

Can't be sure on that one LH, but I would think sometime after the Granny is done and dusted.

Thanks iv'a...does that mean he is be playing this weekend :rolleyes:...rhetorical question!

Whoever it is we are doing a damn good job of keeping it quiet!

BTW I did hesitate posing that rhetorical question for fear it will set all the DL's player wishes off the scale.

Then I thought 'what the heck' it gives people a new line of speculation for the next few weeks!

I once predicted the fall of the Roman Empire. Seriously, I have no information other than what my snout gave me. That's all.

on a scale of 1 to 10, with 10 being 'Paul Roos' and 1 being 'some random down at the pub' what score would you give your source? :D

On tippin winners at the races, I give him a big fat zero. On his footy connections, I'd give him a 7

  • WHAT’S NEXT? by The Oracle

    What’s next for a beleagured Melbourne Football Club down in form and confidence, facing  intense criticism and disapproval over some underwhelming recent performances and in the midst of a four game losing streak? Why, it’s Adelaide which boasts the best percentage in the AFL and has won six of its last seven games. The Crows are hot and not only that, the game is at the Adelaide Oval; yet another away fixture and the third in a row at a venue outside of Victoria. One of the problems the Demons have these days is that they rarely have the luxury of true home ground advantage, something they have enjoyed just once since mid April.

  • REPORT: Gold Coast

    From the start, Melbourne’s performance against the Gold Coast Suns at Peoples First Stadium was nothing short of a massive botch up and it came down in the first instance to poor preparation. Rather than adequately preparing the team for battle against an opponent potentially on the skids after suffering three consecutive losses, the Demons looking anything but sharp and ready to play in the opening minutes of the game. By way of contrast, the Suns demonstrated a clear sense of purpose and will to win. From the very first bounce of the ball they were back to where they left off earlier in the season in Round Three when the teams met at the MCG. They ran rings around the Demons and finished the game off with a dominant six goal final term. This time, they produced another dominant quarter to start the game, restricting Melbourne to a solitary point to lead by six goals at the first break, by which time, the game was all but over.

  • CASEY: Gold Coast

    Coming off four consecutive victories and with a team filled with 17 AFL listed players, the Casey Demons took to their early morning encounter with the lowly Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium with the swagger of a team that thought a win was inevitable. They were smashing it for the first twenty minutes of the game after Tom Fullarton booted the first two goals but they then descended into an abyss of frustrating poor form and lackadaisical effort that saw the swagger and the early arrogance disappear by quarter time when their lead was overtaken by a more intense and committed opponent. The Suns continued to apply the pressure in the second quarter and got out to a three goal lead in mid term before the Demons fought back. A late goal to the home side before the half time bell saw them ten points up at the break and another surge in the third quarter saw them comfortably up with a 23 point lead at the final break.

  • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

    The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.
