    Yeah he was  but  my question for you geniuses was which unfulfilled talent  did the Dee's make better?

    Maybe Brent Moloney? 

    Wasn't bad at the Cats though.

    So you're happy having 10 small forwards on the list and no midfield depth? That's bound to end well for us.

    Oh I forgot we’d finished making our selections at the draft and finalised our list and those we’ve slowly been introducing to some midfield time was just for [censored]$ and giggles and not to help us moving forward

    Stephen Sylvani was just on Trade Radio and said they hadn't even spoken to Melbourne about Billings. So who knows. SOS would be the last person I'd trust on anything. Based on the Vibe. Nothing else. 

    Asleep at the wheel.

    Melbourne supporters - we have too many inside mids who can't kick.

    Melbourne - trades for quicker outside players with skill.

    Supporters - we have no midfield depth

    Thought this was a done deal and we were just waiting for the ink to dry …

     

    Silvagni is doing his best Dodoro impersonation.

    The back and forth between the clubs would be mainly by Billing's manager so no surprise that the clubs themselves haven't spoken.  Silvagni is there now to sign the paperwork before 7pm for what was agreed.

    Why is your name a pale blue colour?

    Agree

    The manager would have been given parameters including the salary chip in amount so it should be done.

    That aside a strange comment as it would have taken him (SOS) literally 30 seconds to understand the deal outline

    Trade Radio much the better for Silvagni finding gainful full time employment!

    As much as I’d like to get involved in a pile on and prove to @IRW that their post was rubbish, I have news:

    Apparently Tom Morris likes his surname pronounced like how a French person would say “Maurice”.

    And does he prefer Tom-[censored] or Tommy ET?

    That colour is gentle on the eye.

    I've run out of 'storage space' to post images etc.  I've been deleting 'attachments' like crazy but to keep the Contracts thread going Andy put me into the 'Contributors' category as it was the only way to increase my storage space.

    Billings as we're looking to trade Chandler in a "move up" deal involving him with picks?

    • REPORT: Brisbane

      “Max Gawn has been the heart and soul of the Dees for years now, but this recent recovery from a terrible start has been driven by him. He was everywhere again, and with the game in the balance, he took several key marks to keep the ball in the Dees forward half.” - The Monday Knee Jerk Reaction: Round Ten Of course, it wasn’t the efforts of one man that caused this monumental upset, but rather the work of the coach and his assistants and the other 22 players who took the ground, notably the likes of Jake Melksham, Christian Petracca, Clayton Oliver and Kozzie Pickett but Max has been magnificent in taking ownership of his team and its welfare under the fire of a calamitous 0-5 start to the season. On Sunday, he provided the leadership that was needed to face up to the reigning premier and top of the ladder Brisbane Lions on their home turf and to prevail after a slow start, during which the hosts led by as much as 24 points in the second quarter. Titus O’Reily is normally comedic in his descriptions of the football but this time, he was being deadly serious. The Demons have come from a long way back and, although they still sit in the bottom third of the AFL pack, there’s a light at the end of the tunnel as they look to drive home the momentum inspired in the past four or five weeks by Max the Magnificent who was under such great pressure in those dark, early days of the season.

    • CASEY: Southport

      The Southport Sharks came to Casey. They saw and they conquered a team with 16 AFL-listed players who, for the most part, wasted their time on the ground and failed to earn their keep. For the first half, the Sharks were kept in the game by the Demons’ poor use of the football, it’s disposal getting worse the closer the team got to its own goal and moreover, it got worse as the game progressed. Make no mistake, Casey was far and away the better team in the first half, it was winning the ruck duels through Tom Campbell’s solid performance but it was the scoreboard that told the story.

    • PREGAME: Sydney

      Just a game and percentage outside the Top 8, the Demons return to Melbourne to face the Sydney Swans at the MCG, with a golden opportunity to build on the momentum from toppling the reigning premiers on their own turf. Who comes in, and who makes way?
