Garland can't take a tall either. Height isn't everything in a defender. 

i didn't say it was everything. i was just pointing out that whilst taller than puopolo 186cm is not tall these days.

whether you were impressed or not garland was often played on the opponent's 3rd tall

Im intrigued by Hibberd, probably suits us as an upgrade on a Garland type, intercept mark 3rd tall type?

Hardly a tall at 186cms. He is shorter than Grimes. Garland is 191 cms.

Call me anything but late for breakfast I have a feeling that Hibberd is going to breakdown ( actually my white witch told me) for a long time. Hasn't the footy factory GWS got someone we can poach i.e Caleb Marchbank.

So we now know  how much manure to apportion anything Essendon hey !

The thing is I still despise  the AFL more. Dumbo will get away scott free.

LOL the tears from Essendope and Worsfold are great.  Nice feeling to be one of the clubs kicking them while they are down. I hope all other clubs join the party.

PD you were right to call me on my thinkings towards the 90's and woosha.  Quite seriously I wasnt focusing on those years at all and was late at night..but  granted ...fair call. i mistook the post for referencing  Worsfold's nefarious doings in general.( and later )  I still do.  He's a skunk

What involvement he had in the 90's...wtf  knows. History suggests many things. His directions in latter events in the Naughties however  seem to speak for themselves.

The last thing we would want is to upset them .

We should offer Brian Royal as compo.

Melksham vs Hibberd? Hibberd all the way. Better player all round. Melksham I'm lukewarm on. Goes in hard, tries his guts out, but meh disposal. If one thing's been made clear to me this year (apart from how good we're gonna be in the next 5 years or so), it's that we need a little more pace and a lot more skill.

Thought I'd paste a response from Nick Bowen on the AFL website trade chat today... Not ground breaking but worth a mention...

Question asked if we were chasing anyone...

Michael Hibberd is likely to be at the Dees next year. Dion Prestia also in Melbourne's sights.

Bowen on afl.com yesterday speculated that one VIC club is heavily interested in him and the 2 WA clubs are sniffing around. A contract extension was almost done and dusted earlier in the year but the landscape has now changed with Jetta.

I reckon something is playing on Jetta's mind and he's put in near career worst performances the last fortnight.

One of Jetta, T Mac or Watts will be gone IMO. We always lose a player a year.

We have to turn our list over by 3 each year. Let's hope its Terls, MJones and Grimes for Hibbert, Prestia and Hurley, rather than TMac, Jetta and/or Watts. Highly unlikely, but a guy can dream can't he?!

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the

    GAMEDAY: Rd 15 vs North Melbourne

    It's Game Day and it very well could be the last roll of the dice for the Demon's finals aspirations in 2024. A loss to the bottom side would be another embarrassing moment in a cursed year for the Dees whilst a win could be the spark they need to reignite the fire in the belly.

    THE HUNTER by The Oracle

    Something struck me as I sat on the couch watching the tragedy of North Melbourne’s attempt to beat Collingwood unfold on Sunday afternoon at the MCG.    It was three quarter time, the scoreboard had the Pies on 12.7.79, a respectable 63.16% in terms of goal kicking ratio. Meanwhile, the Roos’ 18.2.110 was off the charts at 90.00% shooting accuracy. I was thinking at the same time of Melbourne’s final score only six days before, a woeful 6.15.51 or 28.57% against Collingwood’s 14.5.89

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t
