  1. What the [censored] is Lamumba doing out there aside from guarding fresh air??
  2. Over using the bloody ball, cant get clean hands off the deck and we look slow!!!
  3. Have seen all 3 wins this year and planned on attending today. Unfortunately ive got 2 sick girls at home and the missus is working... Hope the crowd picks up and the boys keep the momentum going! Go you Demons!!
  4. I wont be watching...but can someone please keep a tally of how many times he uses the word "obviously".
  5. He said in the pre game that many rate St Kilda ahead of Melbourne....for which he disagreed. Was a pleasant surprise...
  6. Just called Jones, Nathan Brown. Its comical...
  7. Getting murdered in the centre clearances.
  8. "We take the best available" mumbo jumbo from Taylor aside...surely tactics are involved in who we take at 3 to ensure we get who we want at 7. It's possible the club may well be prioritizing the combined value of 3 and 7 overall rather than putting all their eggs in pick 3's basket. Maybe they believe by taking Parish at 3 they miss their number 7 target? Is the combined value of Oliver and player X at 7 better than who they might end up with at 7 if they take Parish? Who knows. Cant wait for draft night!
  9. The club clearly see the importance of rapid on field improvement. The fact they traded out next year's first round pick for an extra selection this year proves this. Its highly likely they will go with an Oliver type at pick 3. He has a body size thats ready to go and by the looks, will play next year if selected. I honestly cant see Parish being AFL ready for at least 2 to 3 years.
  10. Mahoney and co should just not even turn up tomorrow and leave a note on our trade desk that says "Out to lunch".
  11. Both potentially available at pick 6?
  12. Ill be honest...i know NOTHING about this years potential draftees... If we maintain pick 6 and dont land Parish...who are we likely to get best case? Surely there will be some form of potential gun up for grabs at pick 6?
  13. Cant wait for the first article on the Collingwood website with Jeremy: "I grew up a Collingwood supporter.....I feel like I was always meant to play for this club"
  14. I look forward to the day i'm like the Hawthorn supporters in my office and have no idea trade week is even on.
  15. Biding time and testing waters in order to get the best possible deals for the players we are targetting. Wouldn't you rather that than the club throwing picks away like candy, when better deals may arise as the trade period transpires. We are not Geelong (yet). We dont have the luxury of players lining up to pull on our jumper like they do. None of us have any idea what is going on behind closed doors, we are not alone in the lack of activity department...its the third day!
  16. I too am happy to become a sheep and request a PM from Adam, only if you're happy to oblige mate.
  17. I'm 39 years old and a borderline alcoholic during winter thanks to this club!
  18. Hahaha there are actually players out there that arent even trying. Im getting a beer.
  19. What the hell was Grimes doing there?? Our players literally dont want the ball!
  20. Just started watching the Foxtel replay played this morning. Why the hell do i have to endure Eddie and the other clown shoes' biased drivel commentary? Making me sick. Edit - already a thread on it...sorry guys.
  21. Watching the replay AGAIN...cant get enough! Have lost count though...of how many times we let Geelong get a centre clearance immediately after we kick a goal...to score an immediate (counter) goal. They just let all their hard work be undone in a matter of seconds. First world problems after a win like that...but really stood out.
  22. If we beat the Cats i will... ...Watch the replay 15 times (3rd time in right now).
  23. Lives in Eltham next to my daughters school...MFC legend. My old man was on the list when he played...says he is a terrific bloke.
