So apparently Izzy Folau has had a falling out eith Rugby Australia and won't be donning the green and gold for the world cup. World class, professional athlete who has played the game with some success (GWS) and could bring him on as a category B rookie, so won't cost much. 

Sure he has some pretty strange beliefs such as everyone going to hell and that it's ok to keep slaves so pong as they are foreign, but these minor 'quirks' may even help galvanise the playing group. 

Thoughts?

    I understand the apprehension but were not going to improve by doing same, same so lets try something out of the box. Izzy is too good to be lost to sport forever.

    I think I read somewhere that statistically Folau was the worst player to have ever played the game. not sure that sort of talent will help us much.

    So as an approx. 23yo he managed all of 13 games over 2 seasons in the embryonic GWS (i.e. while they were [censored]), and now you want to bring him in as a 3yo - an age where players are in decline?

    Is this a ploy to get god on our side?

    Get that other ex NRL playing K Hunt while we’re at it. 

    Everything should be on the table, or mirror, or whatever.

    We would have to change our name from The Demons to The Evangelicals  and the theme song to the tune of ‘Praise the lord and pass the ammunition’ and tithe him 10% of all club revenue plus match payments and expenses before he would consider us.

    Israel Folau would look at the Melbourne Football Club now and for half a century, and immediately be inspired to quote scripture;

    I the LORD thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation. - Deuteronomy 5:9

     

    But I doubt there's any real danger of attracting Folau, we just can't fit the necessary shekels under the salary cap.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
