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? 

 

Oh for [censored] sake...

Go and have a lay down Chook!

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.

That guy I'd put at CHF

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.

Agree, he’d nail it. 

I sick of getting my hopes up when saviors arrive at the club.

He can go to hell!

  • REPORT: Carlton

    I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

  • CASEY: Carlton

    The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

  • POSTGAME: Carlton

    A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
