Michael Hibberd and Michael Hurley

Those fawning over Braysure's every word are starting to look a bit silly now.

Why?. He actually said Hibberd would probably become a Dee when he tried his second alias.

 

Our 2016 2nd rounder for Hibberd will be a reasonable result.  Essendon may be interested in a player like ANB, their inside midfield could do with a boost - 2nd last for both clearances and contested possessions, might be a later pick swap in their favour required.  Those hoping to pay less will be disappointed.

No-one is fawning over him, simply pointing out he was right and those who questioned his input were wrong.

I wouldn't clear ANB.

I'm absolutely positive that essedon will ask for a lot more than that.

Why did the Hibberd thread get merged with this one? Hurley is no longer relevant.

 

Because there was two concurrent threads going on the same topic.  Not sure how the software picked the title, but the OP is P_Man's post from the original "Michael Hibberd" thread.  I don't see "Michael Hibberd and Michael Hurley" a massive difference to "Michael Hibberd", especially when everyone had all but stopped talking about Hurley.

Braysure was a troll who would offer an Essendon point of view to every discussion he participated in.  Hurley singing at Essendon is Braysure fluking a guess at what was going to happen amongst all his other incoherent ravings.  In fact, as Hurley was always favoured to stay at Essendon, it's hardly a commendable piece of guesswork.

Word has it we're getting Hibberd

How's that for a scoop

And he chopped and changed his mind on Hibbert regularly, finally claiming he would laugh in all our faces.

Some claimed he was 100% right, which is easy to do when you hedge your bets.

KC from Casey has started a Michael Hibberd thread.

I think that in the event that we do complete a trade, it would be a good idea that we continue the tradition of welcoming new players to the club with their own dedicated thread.

Since, Hurley's now out of the picture, I believe this read should now end and we concentrate on one player.

Well if I'd known you were going to do that, I'd have just closed the 'Hurley and Hibberd' thread instead of merging it with the existing 'Hibberd' thread.  Booooo.

  • REPORT: West Coast

    On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

  • POSTGAME: West Coast

    Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

  • GAMEDAY: West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?
