For those of you who can handle watching the show itself .... Jack Watts on the Footy Show Panel now!

 

Jack Viney on the Mangarook Footy Show tonight.

Very composed. Captain worthy performance!  He said:

- Hogan loves playing with Dawes

- His pre season scuffle with TMc was because he thought Tommy was being a bit soft...could have been joking

- On the hunt for a puppy...like Bernie's mountain dog----->images?q=tbn:ANd9GcT2SA_ZeRF3L0oK_rE7wFC       Cute, eh? 

- Agreed with the singing of Wagner's praises.

- They accept making a few mistakes while learning and practice of 'our way of playing'.

- Roos pushed defence for 2 years and once we got that sorted we started an attacking game style in this pre-season

That is all I can remember...

A 5 year contract for Dawes is now on the table...

As JV said it, I groaned for that reason. 

I guess if that is what the club thinks is best and it keeps Jesse happy so be it

It would probably be a cheaper option than buying him a gold mansion and filling it with naked ladies who feed him grapes all day

Shhh... don't tell OD :unsure:

Superannuation maybe  to fill in for Hoges and the Weed when needed and mentor future forwards.

I'd give him 3 years and a Zimmer frame

There always seems to be an essendon player on the panel. I will just fast forward Zaka's crap he says. But good to see footy shows take an interest now.

Yeah, but a lot less interesting. 

Know anyone who might apply? :)

I loved when Jack was asked about Prestia coming to the Dees next year, he started his reply with "well, I'm not in charge of list management obviously or I'd have given myself another contract by now"

OD would have a better chance of getting a 5 year contract BZ!

Understood Rusty.  Wanted to mention JV's first class performance somewhere on DL and this thread title looked a good place.

Just remembered, JV also mentioned JKH...said he had a bad run of luck with injuries but when fit would be in best 22.  Good vote of confidence for JKH.

I know.

According to Jack, Bernie Vince has one hence my words like 'Bernie's mountain dog' and they showed a pic of Jack with the dog.  I googled Bernese Mountain Dog to get the pic in my post.  But I can see how my post could be read as you have.:rolleyes:

Bernese were working dogs on Swiss farms. They have no problems in Melbourne, just don't sit them out in the sun in summer. They are very placid and great with kids.

I know Dawes isn't great at clunking marks and doesn't kick a lot of goals, but he has great footy smarts and works insanely hard to create space for his team. 

Jesse would love one v one rather than three v one

You think? No impressed how they have the Bears in a concrete pit, seems out of character with the Swiss in general.

Ever been there in winter, one cold old place.

  • NON-MFC: Round 06

    The Easter Round kicks off in style with a Thursday night showdown between Brisbane and Collingwood, as both sides look to solidify their spots inside the Top 4 early in the season. Good Friday brings a double-header, with Carlton out to claim consecutive wins when they face the struggling Kangaroos, while later that night the Eagles host the Bombers in Perth, still chasing their first victory of the year. Saturday features another marquee clash as the resurgent Crows look to rebound from back-to-back losses against a formidable GWS outfit. That evening, all eyes will be on Marvel Stadium where Damien Hardwick returns to face his old side—the Tigers—coaching the Suns at a ground he's never hidden his disdain for. Sunday offers two crucial contests where the prize is keeping touch with the Top 8. First, Sydney and Port Adelaide go head-to-head, followed by a fierce battle between the Bulldogs and the Saints. Then, Easter Monday delivers the traditional clash between two bitter rivals, both desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top end of the ladder. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • 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.

    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.
