Burn the bridge, destroy the plans for the distributor. They will rue the day they deprived us of our prize.

Think he forgot to mention Prestia in that deal

Why can't we have Wines!

Wasn't Goodwin praising McDonalds versatility, making particular note of forward and ruck efforts.?Might be a hint of what's to come. Frost up back or forward. Dunn also. Really liked Dunn's role last week. Maybe it's a horses for courses rotation.

Ollie Wines?

Chestnut grandmaster. Subtle difference. One not lost on those suffering.

I'm not sure about McKay? But, if these guys are fit and firing at the same time. I feel pretty good about next year. Give us 1 a grade mid to boot, I'll feel even better

I'd love us to start one game with Riley, Viney, VDB, Brayshaw and maybe Hogan in the centre. All go man on man and scare the living bejesus out of the opposition.

Assuming the wise heads at AFL house grant Carlton an end of first round pick for Henderson, not picks 1 & 2. Nor, grant Brisbane a pick to go along side pick 2. For either Luenberger or Martin. Could push us back to pick 7/8

Jobe Watson to the Dees have any traction?

This is all to cruel. I thought I'd made my peace with this. I'll now be checking for updates every 5minutes. Damn you Robbo! GNF...Chook.any news...a signed forward dated contract perhaps? Something?

Someone used to hang out down Smith street? It always amazed me how many people asked if I was Jason, until I worked it out.

Well looks like Danger is off the table

Hmmmm. Sigh. Hmmm. Arrgghh time to go drown my head in a bucket of suds And forget I'm a Melbourne supporter till the papers tomorrow. Back to the misery.

Bloody awful. Vale Mr. Walsh

Schwartz on SEN rated him very highly

Hey, party boys! Get a room.

Watts didn't catch Selwood when he powered out of the centre in the last quarter for a goal. But, the laconic lope and doe eyes are gone. That was the look of commitment and determination. Also loving the bromance of Jonesy and Brawshaw. You can see them having fun. I'm sure it's the delirium of the win, but, can we still make the finals? I feel something building.

Pretty sure, well known food critic John Lethlean, from The Australian, is also a long suffering supporter. Wonder what his thoughts on the Dees Palio diet is after our 2:2 start to the season.

Ablett's handball to Garland in the goal square. The enjoyment and belief it seemed to give the boys was gold.

Perhaps we could join forces with the boys in blue. They can drive a divvy van around at 1/2 time looking for potential D&D candidates. While the supporters find their voices by reclaiming classics like "your going home in the back of a divvy van" And "what's the colour of a two cent coin?" Ect. Maybe an old Holden can be installed behind the goal posts for one lucky winner to beep the horn at every goal. Food for thought.

The club is in an interesting position, where it's branding is both geographically specific and potentially a more encompassing term that draws in the city as a whole. So how do we become the worlds most 'liveable' club? Where is the focus? Can we capitalise on the trend of other clubs to dilute their geographical identity in search of homogenous branding. Can we incorporate our colours with the branding of Melbourne through the Melbourne City council or for that matter state level. Or, should we cave in, wear black with some ironic motif, like a fuchsia on the breast. Game day seems trickier. There is a time and place for importing successful formula from other codes and nations. But, I'm not sure we want to create a homogenous supporter experience across all codes. Since our supporter base hasn't come from s traditional geographical area, most seems contingent on the glorious 50s. My guess are most of our supporters have been indoctrinated by family. These families have dispersed across the country, but, seemingly concentrated in our eastern suburbs. I can imagine our APS old boys putting together some 'old school', maybe Latin based, club chants. Maybe not My nonsense ravings tonight come from the higher and much steeper slopes of the La La's. Great, great vino. My humble apologies and good night

Obviously very excited

Whoops
