Fritta and Turner

Potentially the Tigers have 9 picks.  Do they have a father son coming?

I think you're onto something here Jontee - LDC could be under alien control.

 

....... Unless of course you are under alien control.

..... or .... maybe you are the alien.

I am never under control

It must be something about this game and team that we love that people who I assume are in fine mental health suddenly exhibit extraordinary paranoia when discussing football issues. Whether it's discussing free kicks, umpiring, the MRO/Tribunal, the AFL media, or the fixture I am consistently amazed at how many posters seem to believe that somehow the MFC and its players are victims of bias and/or corruption.

I can't decide which threads exhibit the most paranoia. What say the rest of you?     

Who put you up to creating this thread?  What secret agenda are you running?

I cried myself to sleep back in that era too.

To his credit he has been very honest - party, party party

Mine has arrived.

AP says it is coming today

We lacked class and polish

Have received a message from the Club and AP that my membership pack is on its way!!!!

Has anyone received theirs yet?

I left out 1992 Jim Stynes, Todd Viney and Graeme Yeats.

Right, you have just been dropped from my Best 22 Posters 😁

19 13 is unlucky for some?

Gee your family were doing well in the 70s with a trip to Hawaii.

I thought Lakes Entrance was pretty Cosmopolitan back then and as far as we ever ventured barring our all out campervan holiday in Merrimbula. 

Sure beats Mordialloc or Dromana

Can we talk about coke yo yos soon?

No.  Still traumatised.  Was only a small kid and I reckon the string was longer than me. 2nd go the yoyo hit the ground and broke in 2.  The rest is history.  Explains everything really.

Should change his first name to Norman

Complicating the matter is the 31-year-old has a young family and does not want to leave Perth.

That leaves Darling with many options.....

The Caulfield Station itself needs some upgrades

True but unlikely.  You cant even change a light globe at Caulfield without going before the heritage committee.  (how they allowed electric trains i will never know)

people still doubt MFC after using pick swaps the best of any team in the league. 

what if the talent drops off dramatically after 12? what is we want player x and y and they rated out of sync with the general concensus?

if we land 2 more gun kids this year and next we are a huge chance at a flag or two in the next 4 years

Sparrow at pick 27, Rivers at pick 32, Petty at 37 and ANB at 40. We can find them

I don't know why we even bother with early picks when we do so well in 25 - 40 range

Has our drafting team lost their nerve?

We have given up 14, 27 and 35 for 11

Sparrow at pick 27, Rivers at pick 32, Petty at 37 and ANB at 40 clearly shows we are hopeless with late 2nd early 3rd picks

If we dont grab Reid this deal is an absolute stinker.

I would say, No

Yep....a schoolmate of mine's parents had a milkbar....   resultingly he knew all about the "Frees"..  there was actually a particular coding on the outside that verified the inside...If you knew what to look for ;)

We were at a milkbar just opposite Central Park Malvern way way way back...   We went in...searched through teh freezer cabinbet and both selected our Sunny Boys......ate them...went back in for our frees.......ate them....both went back in for our Frees....  The owner told us in no uncertain terms about coming back in !!! ...dint mind...we were pretty full as a goog by then ;)   We had a lot of frees ;)

Sunny boys - used to do similar  though I remember the printing on the seam used to be slightly different.

One thing is the same; been thrown out by the shop keeper when they worked out what we were doing.

Need to revamp the onfield leadership team.  Off his own feet and hands Max had a chance to put us into the prelim and he didnt.
