I think every player on the Dees list is terrible and I will not give you any reasons why. put that in your pipe and smoke it!

Indeed. The scary part is when you review that 22 for seasoned, talented, senior players (ie. leaders) that have been with the Dees for a few years that the young guys can follow. you are left with Jones and Dunn That is why Cross and Lumumba are important. and why our youngsters dont come on at half the rate of other clubs, and why we are so so bad

wow I'll never get that 5 minutes back get a room lads

looks an OK team. although: - 2 guys playing their first ever AFL game - 6 guys with less than 20 AFL games cant expect much from those. hopefully the senior guys can stand up and lead the way

I really have no idea what to expect for the upcoming season after the last 3 nab games. It had shook my confidence. Anywhere from 2 wins to 11 is possible. Surely we have to stop being pathetic soon????!

Bontempelli is unbelievable for a second year player. Could be the best player in the league in a few years

Thanks for update guys Gee it would be good to bring a youngster into a winning team for once. Bringing brayshaw into the current senior rabble will do him no good.

cool story

im working like a mad man trying to get done, drop the kid home and get back into city by 5. gotta have a beer before the game but i still manage to get on here and post a fairly pointless remark Gonna see the Dees play! should get a seat on the fence and just watch Hogan all game. (not in a creepy way)

When I said put $100 on the dogs I meant the greyhounds!! I should be a lawyer

I'm not saying we have no hope, But it is very unlikely we will win round one Err go dees

With the likes of Swallow, matera, prestia, bennell,day, Mckenzie, Thompson, malceski, Martin, smith I'll think they can cope with out or two. They'll be top 4 or near enough for the next 5 years thanks to the ridiculous draft concessions they got

Can't believe we didnt draft Freeman

fair enough mate. you're a braver man than I am

So maybe Frost and Gawn will be completing for the one spot (forward/2nd ruck). interesting

would you tell Magner to his face that he has been ordinary and he was delisted for a reason? bring your scooter if you do! he's a big bloke [brian Taylor reckons he built East Link - haha good one Bristle you kn0b]

just looking at my team for round one and its difficult to leave players out for the first time in 8 years When Howe/Vince are back, we could be leaving out players such as Toumpas, Frost, JKH, Bail. Cant remember this ever being the case.

no magner or clisby

Misso said they ideally want 2 1/2 games into most players up for round 1 selection. so I guess the guys who were subbed the last 2 weeks will play full games and the others mgiht be likely to be rested or play a half. I reckon Pedo and Dawes might get a half each

Vince has 10+ preseasons under his belt. even at 80% he get picked over some of our bottom 6 Howe is a freak of an athlete so I dont expect him to need 5 more weeks of training and 3-4 casey games to be right either fingers crossed

Howe and Vince listed as a test. They should be able to get a Casey game in prior to round one. They did a fair bit of pre-season and they are senior guys so I reckon they could play round 1. Vince, Howe getting closer to return So by round one we have Trenners out and 2 first year players. Great result MFC, well done!***touching wood/crossing fingers***

3 game memberships are BS and shouldn't be counted

Afl are trialling a shot clock count down when someone takes a shot and worst of all the umpires will be broadcast over the PA when explaining free kicks. Good lord! Should we just call it the NFL now? Hearing the umps yell play on incessantly on to is bad enough!

Was tongue in cheek

looks like we might reach our ambitious target of 30,000 by round 1 !! over 29,000 now.
