Rules are poorly written

By my reading Neitas Great Aunt may be eligible; bit of a worry for everyone else.

Rules were written by a 'spaghetti coder' from the 70's

I could not believe the vitriol! I won't provide any examples but the word "disrespectful" does not go near it. Some of comments drew on events that happened hundreds of years ago.

My parents and grand parents talked about Cromwell like it happened yesterday.  And mum was a monarchist who supported the republic. Go figure.

Lack of self belief

Lack of a lockdown small defender

Lack of a tall forward

Lack of accurate goal kickers

Positives....

1.  Fritta, genuine forward who has kicked plenty.

2.  Oliver, consistently consistent (wtf) probably the best Demon I have seen

3.  Trac, played a game like that with a bung leg, enuff said.

4.  Petty, come of age this year.

5.  Demonland postings - the breadth of the coverage, and the passion, has been most entertaining.

6.  MFC having the only Christians in the AFL (bloddy heathens)

7 Angus, Christian and Clayton signing long term

8.  Hibbo saying that the best decision he ever made was coming to the MFC,

Out - Hunted

In - Hunters

Big year coming up

@Wodjathefirst speaking of Hunted/Hunters watch out for Wodjathesecond

Well every season when you dont win the flag is a waste.  last year i though we were the best team, this year i think we were about the 4th best.  So we havent lived up to that.

Then again it is all about talent and we are lacking goal kicking talent.

Most of demonland would have sacked norm smith.

Rubbish, we would never have appointed him in the first place.  Didnt know the difference between brie and camembert.

You don't rate Bedford, Lauire and Chandler? 

Laurie, no.  Not consistent enough at VFL.  (Had 5 disposals last game).

Bedford is excellent for picl 70+? but cant get the ball.  Bedford and Chandler would get games with teams out of the 8.

Richmond station after a game has been a disaster for 15 years. 

I think a tad longer than that.

I remember as a young fella standing on the platform and looking at all the red rattler 'football specials' lined up down the track waiting to take the fans away.  Now that the jolimont yards are no longer there this doesnt happen.

And having to tap on at 11pm is absolutely stupid.

I have ruled myself out with a 'back'.  (Not sure if it is a hamstring related back or a back related hamstring).

Cant wait to get back to FNQ and get some heat on it.

Whatever we have been doing, we have won 16 games doing it.

Ever noticed why we don’t come back from being behind late in games?

Like against carlton?

Totally agree. They have lacked a chf option since TMac went out. You need a chf to win big games on the MCG. 

Yep.  And who was standing a chf at the start of the last quarter? Brayshaw.  (Gawn in the square and BB on the pine)

Seeing guys like Chandler, JVR, Laurie, Baker and Dunstan continue to put in consistent form at VFL level for little to zero reward is disappointing. 

IMO Baker and probs Laurie not AFL standard, Chandler has had 4 or 5 games but probably marginal,  Dunstan was the replacement for AVB who was the security if Viney broke down.  The disappointment is not getting a couple of games into JVR.  Next season he should be ready to go.
