  1. Quite a few on here seem to believe Petty will head to the backs once TMac or May retires. Im not sure that will happen. As long as Petty keeps improving as a key forward, I don’t think Goody would have any desire to move him back.
  2. Am really tempted @WalkingCivilWar,biting my tongue.
  3. I wanted to believe that it is all about lack of fitness with Clarry. But he’s shown on the field that there are far more issues than just fitness to worry about with him. He has lost his “game” altogether. He is 10% of the player he was. In fact, if you didn’t know better, you’d swear he was a Fine Cotton ring in. He may well have a big pre season but my fear is that we will never see the old Clarry again unfortunately.
  4. Rivers has really stepped up. His efforts need to be acknowledged because he had to carry Oliver and Viney as well.
  5. I hope Marty Hore gets another go in the ones. Casey certainly relies on him.
  6. Hunter will have to beg Goody to have any chance of playing his 200th game. It certainly won’t be on form.
  7. Such a shame that Laurie cannot hit a target. (He’s not the only one mind).
  8. Luv your constant positivity.
  9. Haha if you are in Pattaya you ain’t all that well!
  10. Haha I bet you have Clint.
  11. With Windsor out, what are the thoughts on playing Disco on the wing. He has pace, he can mark, he can defend, he’s good below his knees and he can kick. This might allow Jeffo to get a run up forward - which would make @picket fencevery happy.
  12. My rage has simply been transferred.
  13. Haha You’re an [censored]. (Why is the word idi ot is a banned word?)
  14. Please show me where it is written that we are, “factually”, the laughing stock of all other AFL supporters. What a silly thing to say. So is your defining of different classes of supporters to deride those who choose not to attend a game. Hate to think how’d you classify me then. I’d have to be below your “theatre goer” classification, because I rarely go. Maybe I cannot be classified as a supporter at all. Maybe I’m simply a “barracker”.
  15. Neil Crompton replied to Oxdee's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    Thanks for the late tip Red!
  16. And Neil McMullin’s jaw in 1974.
  17. @Abyssal If, by some chance, you are referring to WCW with your non-too cryptic remark, I’m sure that, if she possibly wanted too, she could well claim the crown as the most loyal supporter we have. But she’d never do that because I think you and some other DL’s totally misunderstand where,I believe, she is coming from. It’s obvious that she loves the club and the players so much that she cannot abide anyone disparaging their name. They are truely like sons (and daughters to her) and as such won’t hear a bad word said against them. Imagine if your son received some of the same vitriol that our players are often subjected to on this site. I think you would react to that - I know I would. Perhaps, for her own good, (and not yours) WCW should be banned from the match day thread once the game has begun, and the post match thread for at least a day after a completed match (unless of course if we win). WCW might be deranged (my affectionate term for her), but do realise it’s her sons and daughters playing out there - so beware. If you have the right to spew vitriolic comments about one of our players, then she has the right to be critical of your comments. We are all different, just understand and accept that. Despite her “derangedness”, she can light up DL, and for me, and I’m sure many others, she makes this site a whole lot better than it would be without her.
  18. Ffs I wish we could help put you out of your misery. You are so depressing.
  19. He has pressured his butt off
  20. I think I bought a “Rolex” in that establishment.
  21. Nice to see Jeffo as the main man up forward, and not crowded out by the likes of Schache and BBB. Hope he has a good day.
  22. Isn’t Jed Adams the team speedster?
  23. If we had a camera operator of the year award

. well let’s just say it would be an honour to even be considered for nomination, as well she might.
  24. You are not clutching my pearls D.
  25. I see you finally found the zoom button WCW. Well done. (Haha we were all hoping you’d have found it weeks ago).
