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

  • REPORT: Essendon

    What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

  • POSTGAME: Essendon

    Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

  • GAMEDAY: Essendon

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?
