I am attempting to adopt the "I told you so" pose (without out appearing too smug) with some EFC supporters that thought this would never happen. Very hard to reduce the smug level.
Stuff it, suck it up Essendon hahahhahahahh etc.

Posted before I read it. No doubt there will be more to come.
Hey mods, can we have a vote out a poster for a week button. Must get 10 separate posters to vote for a holiday. We could have a vote for, to get them back. It would give some posters an idea of how un/popular they really are. I think some are delusional. -That is probably me.
Ernie you have a fairly grim view of history.
"Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it". George Santayana or later Churchill's "Those who fail to learn from history are doomed to repeat it"
With the type of leaks coming out of our club of late (none) I'd say we are all speculating. That is fine but the certainty that some posters have is laughable. I wouldn't mind betting that the FD have a few scenarios planned, with nothing set in stone. Most of us were surprised with the Saints not taking Petracca last year, no doubt there may be surprises this year.

D G I thought saying thousands made it an obvious exaggeration. Perhaps I'll try gazillions next time. I don't remember the price but tickets and parking cost me hundreds more than the going to the MCC. Yes hundreds.
Edit :- for some reasons gaziilions - gazillions does not work with spell check. It does with gaziilion ---no now its working. hmmmmfft.
He has great vision and in those highlights every disposal hits its target. Also looked to make good decisions, but my only info is 4min of highlights, Sammy Blease looked like a super start too. But I think Parish has a hard edge so I say yes at 3.
Beeb it's more than that. We have a perfectly good home ground a couple of km's away, it is the best ground in the world. Many of us are MCC/MFC members and like to sit in our favorite spots with regular like minded supporters around us. Why would we pay thousands to park in the bomb shelter to sit in krappy seats with feral supporters of other clubs? As I have said before, its the G or the TV for me.
I read that without glasses and thought it read "Only other Demonlanders I've met in prison are Jaded, Fifty5, Baghdad Bob. Sounds more like Collingwood supporters to me!
To all the personal attackers, ease up.
Not that I am a mod. I should mind my business but I do get sick of personal attacks ruining good discussion and stuie you are capable of good discussion.
Please stuie try a less confrontational method of argument, you have an almost unique ability to rub people the wrong way. Perhaps you could forget the poster and focus on the argument.
