Like the rather amusing time at Kardinia - 2 seasons ago the Cats celebrated Corey Enrights (who is a legend) 300th game or games record - pre match - (pre match, who the eff does that) as though the win was a formality. They don’t get up for their champions even at Kardinia ??

THIS. - Wayne's role in the media is to sensationalise, or infer stuff that can become sensational. The evidence of course is contrary and people write narratives post hoc. I remember when Collingwood were in their premiership year and they were amazing leaders because they could have tough finger pointy conversations on the field - and by correlation that they were winning, it was demonstrating that those tough convo's on the field were the CAUSATION of their success.... and THEN ...when they were loosing those same tough finger pointy conversations - were ALSO the cause of their failure! Melbourne will be fine...with rifts, and without rifts...

I agree with this, and with my albeit limited exposure to medical personnel in the afl - in addressing things that even THEY don't know a prognosis for, the only thing they choose to do is wait. So in essence, the medical team, advised by JV's pain experience will proactively be waiting... until inflammation subsides...as they too don't know (not through ignorance, nor malpractice, simply because JV is a sample size of one that every treatment and recover is unique to the individual).

Can this thread (and thread title) be used for all Jack Watts related correspondence for the rest of his career? Just your one stop shop for all Jack Watts.

All external noise that either makes you (as a supporter) feel hopeful, or resentful that the captains/pundits dont rate your beloved. About as irrelevant as Mark Latham...

The interesting part for me was Jackson's comment that, "only one real offer was made, and that in itself says something."

correct weight sir.

Yes it does, Ill pass on the details if you like... just currently tied up (but not enough to check demonland))

@stevethemanjordan - Agreed with all of this, and enjoy most of your posts...

age old gag...but trac vs mccartin....

I watched a bit of the north game and had watched a couple of strong overhead marks from him in pack situations - he’s done it a few times over the first few seasons (and his style is reminiscent of Dangerfield)- and I suspect he is better in that department than many give him credit for - this will only hold him in good stead if he drifts forward...

Hows the Weid tracking? Any legitimate observations?

It may have been mentioned before on the thread (and certainly I am repeating myself to myself) - I genuinely think he is as talented and will be as durable as Shaun Burgoyne.

Bloody hell mate... Harsh as - thyroid issues has had a significant influence on his trajectory.

Gilbert McAdam was a gem...

please elaborate...

what's d schwarz up to now? got a new gig eh?

great question...the facetious part of me thinks because of the reports that he 'talks and holds others to account'...ergo...that's enuff. Personally, i am very confident he can make the grade, just not straight off the draft as such

it takes one quarter in the jlt of hogan in the midfield for opposition to wise up methinks...

the pessimist in me goes - it remind me of the chip frawley 'experiment' forward (when he was clearly out the door behind the scenes) allowing TMAC to get blooded... he's getting a run in the midfield - cause he is away back home for compassion reasons soon enough. of course the optimist, is supportive of the idea, yet agree with @Clint Bizkit

Err, talk to @Grapeviney 'bout this one

Just on that... AFLX Premiers at Etihad, not at AAMI Park etc etc *how can you be premiers when there are other premiers at other grounds, on the same weekend ...FFS - its a joke.

EFF ME - 13 years goes quick - what a bloody tragedy.

Bears $$$hit in woods...
