    Not long ago I read this thread and I was concerned because I didn't have the first clue what youse were on about.

    Now I'm actually  more worried because I'm reading this thread  and I think I actually get it. In my addled mind that is more of a worry.

  2. Spot on, and they are doing it badly!

    Name one other business that would not try to make half of their franchises profitable to strengthen their overall position instead of just handing them cash year after year which only makes the comp weaker. Think they need to go to business school!

    I would swap bank account with AFL. I think as a business they do pretty well, as a competition they have much work to do.

  3. Hey stuie, sorry if I ruffled your feathers the other day, I've been feeling niggly.

    PS> My aim is to have fun here not to get into fights.

    Edit} Can I say niggly? Is it derived from anything? Damn, sorry if I have offended, life can be fraught.

    That's your answer! back to the 90's

    Perhaps you could count the flags won by Hawthorn since the nineties and add the finals played by Freo and subtract the flags we have won since then and voila a number that is almost exactly double your IQ

  5. Judging by the fact Pedo has been dropped for Dawes but not vice versa, I would say Roos doesn't agree with you there.

    I know a few others are stuck in the 90s, but not all forwards are there to actually kick the goals these days. You'd have to ask Roos what Dawes exact role is, but my opinion is his job is as a high half forward/wing link up forward who is meant to apply pressure, a big presence, and create space for our scoring forwards in Hogan and Garlett to work. It's not ideal, and I'm not saying it's our future or it's how it should be, but it's the reality of our list and how Roos is working with it.

    Which forwards at Hawthorn and Freo are there not to kick goals?

  7. This kid seems to overthink his game which could be a problem for him going forward.

    What's wrong with - in the future? Or are you meaning the forward line? I'm confused perhaps even a vacuous fool.

  8. If we wanted to do the trade now, we have either Pick 25 or 43 to offer. Essendon won't accept 43, so if we REALLY want him, we can only pay what we have in the bank, which is Pick 25.

    While it may be considered "overs", there's nothing we can do about it, unless we orchestrated a deal for us to get a late 2nd round pick from somewhere.

    It seriously isn't that hard to understand.

    Wrong silly billy, we have future picks and players, it seriously isn't that hard to understand.

  9. Looks like an offer has been made to Jesse. Mahoney: "We’ve already met with Jesse and we’ve gone through our plan as a club and we’ve presented that to him and made an offer for an extension for Jesse." http://www.melbournefc.com.au/news/2015-10-11/we-want-hogan-longterm-mahoney

    Not a gambler but would take a big bet that Jesse signs an extension beyond 2017!

    A pre Xmas announcement would be nice...a present from Santa :cool:

    Needs a prosthesis does he?
