Constant Mongrel

and he was a mad tigers fan growing up, so if anyone, he'd be tempted by them..

thats awesome! cheers for the heads up mate

just moved to a new place near preston oval.. looking forward to getting along to some games next year!

that would explain his apparent lack of visibility on the day.. no possessions and no tackles. poor effort even if he was in the stands on crutches.

meh. bit soft isn't he? don't recall him really standing up in the crows GF (but no one really did).. long way down our list of priorities i would have thought.. 2013 dees would be all over him but. and pay through the tooth for him!

treloar seems like a really nice dude.. i haven't really seen any of the reports on his possible mental health issues, but why this has been made public is real yuck (unless its him disclosing it). wish him all the best. be happy to have him at the dees if the price was right. otherwise, maybe the kangas could finally get a decent signing?!

absolutely, i would maybe compare him to jordan lewis or someone like that? game sense.. someone you hate on other teams but are glad that you have on your side. what an ending! the storm definitely deserved it defending minus those two players.. they did look like they were falling apart though hey? it will be interesting to see how they go should smith retire.. not sure that i rate munster as a leader. i'm a raiders fan btw, so like to think that next year it might be a raiders v panthers gf.. 30 years after their '91 gf match.

no idea.. not much. brown? maaaaaybe? be nice to sign higgins. hopefully jacko and kossie click and kick some bags. fingers x no injuries. love to see may and trac kill it again. also be great to see the bombers get the wooden spoon and be a mess.

i wish we'd just get rucks from other clubs/vfl/wafl.. it seems as though the club are against this? it seems more likely than a cat b rookie. surely we can find some flashy winger/FF with no tank whatsoever to fill that spot next time?

ahh, i never saw anything come out from him.. i live in melbourne btw, but have a solid grounding in league. the culture is very different to afl. and i work in disability support, so it really bothered me, apart from just being a really ****ty thing for him to have done at the time. but look, like i said, we all make mistakes and this was just really public. i just don't like the way he niggles and wastes time and 'manages the game' with the ref, etc.. but he is smart. definitely has a football brain. i wouldn't argue against that. geez, the panthers nearly had them at the end.. i have never in my life seen a side turn down a goal attempt either.. such a strange game?!

yes i was aware of that jack. funny though, I very nearly wrote nathan broad type, as i was impressed with his toughness and desperation during the GF.. amazed to see he's available atm too? be awesome to get either of them. def upgrade for us. killer instinct x 2.

i am pretty sure they didn't.. of course it wasn't his fault (the incident) but he should have come out and apologised/addressed it. maybe it was because he was a lot younger and bit more stubborn, but he's certainly not perfect and certainly not 'the greatest ever'. but aside from that, he did speak really well after the game last night. not perfect, but who is?

higgins has been one of my faves since he came on to the scene.. happy go lucky, gives his all. SIGN HIM UP. i'll be [censored] if he ends up anywhere else. happy to lose hunt, macs, hannan, preuss, etc and only get brown, smith and higgins.

as a nswelshman, everyone respects the storm organisation. so this whole 'everyone is against us, no one thought we could do it' rubbish is, well, rubbish. very essendon/pies. the reason everyone has hated the storm was all the maroons in their team. now its full of kiwis and other pacific islanders..and blues, the hatred is less. cameron smith is a dirty, time-wasting, no-good hack. he has skills, but is very over-rated. see how he dealt with the incident where alex mckinnon lost the use of his legs during a game. not an apology. I realise that as most of the dees on here will support the storm (if they care at all about 'the rugby') i will get feedback on this, but it is true.

far out i hope we can pick up a hard-at-it small/mid.. someone like jack higgins with tidy skills, goal sense and pressure. not too hard surely?!

completely agree.. as others have said, high ball drop and a bit dumpy, but it comes with where he gets the ball.. if he could take a few steps and also work on his technique, that’d be ace

if the rating options are: excellent, very good, good, poor, then yes, oliver is a good kick.

where's the farm?

Don't they say the Saints and Dees fanbases are around the South East of Melbourne? Bayside, etc..? I can see a merge potential there, also, what a marriage! Bayside 64/66 FC. Lol. Bulldogs aren''t going anywhere (the 'Western' saves them - a key to a developing region). North are in big trouble for sure. They play for a inner city suburb and have a low fan base. Growing up a League fan, I have seen the pain caused by mergers.. They never work. Even if the clubs win premierships/flags.. They lose their soul. May as well just go down to the VFL/state league to play and keep the identity..

no idea.. not exactly exciting, but can't be excited by every player.. hey we DID get tomlinson last year.

carn fitzroy

couldn't be too much dimmer than gawn. personally i reckon viney is a pretty nice guy, despite his footy persona. dare i say it, a sensitive new age guy..

a vomit cake

i'm normally all over the draft boards, blogs and podcasts, but loving the fact i can have a break from all that weird addictive news chasing re: draft and trade period.. looking forward to getting into the EPL instead. see you in march dees!

soft as angel hair.. i’d trade him for a skilled mid.
