  1. Gone. He'll be sent straight to the tribunal, three weeks down to two with an early plea, and Roos will send him to the naughty corner. Other teams will look to provoke him until he proves he can control his temper.
  2. If Jesse isn't clear what the coaching structure will be next year, he'd have to be a little bit thick.
  3. Any ginger wearing 13 is all right with me.
  4. If you want to believe a club official at the AGM, back at you.
  5. I thought the possibility of a twelve-month suspension figured in the decision to offer Melksham four years rather than three. Trying to read the minds of the notoriously closed-mouthed Melbourne FD.
  6. Distributing "like" like confetti on this thread. Demonland in "up" mode.
  7. Might be worth giving him a go, if Goodwin likes him, but I expect Essendon to price him out of the market.
  8. Butter wouldn't melt in your mouth, old dee.
  9. Cut White and you'll wind up getting another rookie on the same money - you have to fill the list. He'll stay. Jamar's retirement would free up some money, but the salary cap is certainly an issue. Confident it will be sorted.
  10. Agreed, CF. Bilious History is a special branch of fantasy fiction.
  11. I'd like to see Aish at MFC. After the last round of trades/drafting I'm confident that if our selectors think he's worth getting, they won't pay overs for him.
  12. A vandenBeg/newton type? Would that be like an apple/orange?
  13. Plain, weedy nobody like Jesse would have no hope of finding a partner himself, especially in a small town like Melbourne.
  14. Perth is a very nice place to visit, but after six months the walls start to close in. And they don't have the G.
  15. If we have a full list, including JT and CP, we can't offer a contract because the position doesn't exist. A contract for 2016 is a different thing, as rpfc points out.
  16. Barry Oakley wrote about this in "A Salute to the Great McCarthy" (1970). "It is the story of McCarthy, the brilliant young footballer from the bush, and his adventures when he comes to the big city, determined to succeed." Barry Oakley also wrote "Let's hear it for Prendergast".
  17. Warm, wet pockets all around.
  18. Av - or maybe AvB.
  19. Of course you would. We all know that.
  20. Elusive Tunbridge replied to Cards13's post in a topic in General Discussion
    American Sniper - bad in so many ways. Eastwood claims it's "... the biggest anti-war statement (in) any film". Chatting to the chair again.
  21. Agreed. In the best of all possible worlds, Ollie is in the Port LG.
  22. But then, if we had drafted Wines, he might have had a career-ending injury at his first training session and we might still have got Petracca and Brayshaw. Endless vistas of speculation...
  23. I expect you know what you mean.
