picket fence

Yeah well the way he has been playing, he might not be too far of!

Does anyone else reckon Goody looks lke a Cyberman in the Demonland Podcast advertisement viz

Right!! Ahh, I only have a partially completed PhD ! Would you like to finish it for me??

You must be kiddin!! A bloke that breaks lines and provides inspiration and your not worried about him?? Wish we had a few more like him!

Happy with the following Hogan, Pedo, Hibberd and possibly Kennedy IN Weeds, Melksham, Harmes and ??? Out!

I don't know who is a bigger outside reciever Bruest or Chris Mayne . Both played in good teams but cannot get near it when asked to win own ball!

What TF does anyone see in Oscar M? Slow, He was outbodied last weekend by Ayce Cordy and just isn't up to it! Oh, I get it he will play on Jack Riewoldt for entertainment factor! Cheez get real people! Pedo must come in IMO

Rob Flower knocked back quite a few BIG offers from AFL clubs to leave Melb and his answer was always a resolute and resounding NOOOOOO! He would have played in premierships, but he remained loyal to the Melbourne Football Club. I don't care what sport it is, Loyalty is such a lost virtue ( and before anyone says yeah but the club can trade you out at a whim), I can remember Ron Barrasi talking to his players in that Iconic book was written by John Powers "The Coach" and he said, Regarding transfers, "No player who is really valuable will ever be traded out of North Melbourne" or words to that effect. Rob Murphy was very similar and I suppose thats why we have always loved the Champion that still gets well paid but isn't totally driven by the $$$ Or the possibility that life on the other side is always greener!! Chip Frawley?? NOOOOOOOOOOOO !!

Bingers! Thanks for this!! Unfortunately most of the members depicted have gone to the great "Gig in the sky" Except Mike Rudd who is still kicking around! Cheers PF

Kidding? Right ??Pity?? You must be joking!???

Yeah but Neeld "Never saw anything coming" other than his " Strange Fanatastic Dream" ! apologies to great rock band "Ariel" for literary licence!

Sheeit that sounds like the equivalent of a Footy Frankenstein blundering into the Abyss!

Dazzle, I like Hannan and I reckon he will be a fantastic player for us, I reckon he has some serious X factor! I would much rather have him in and drop Harmes Thoughts

As for Pedersen ? He's a dud. Poor decisions, turned it over, and only got the ball while he was on ball. I much prefer Weideman as a contesting forward. He is stronger than Weeds at the moment and so comes in automatically a no brainer! Trengove's class at times stood out. looks like he was playing majority as a half back flanker which is something we might see in the AFL soon. has time and composer at this level. "At this level' which is a zillion miles from the frenetic pace of AFL Too slow and finished! IMO Oscar was another who was meh for me. Got rag dolled in a marking contest by none other thrn Ayce Cordy.. Needs time at VFL level That's coz he is no good and never will be! Ragdolled by Ayce Cordy?? Might as well have been Cale Morton! OR Paul Callery! PF

Who plays key defence in the abscence of Frost?? Pedo?? Nar.... put Jesse , Pedo and Jack W as forward talls and watch Richmond struggle with our Forward height and marking strength! Then all we need to do is get first use out of the centre! Sounds almost too easy!

Here Here. I do applaud Goodwins style BUT he is trying too many things in too short a space of time. Agree with all you have said! The dual Captaincy thing is his biggest blunder to date and there is no fixing that till next year, unless Viney abdicates ( which isn't likely) The buck stops to a degree with the players and if some cannot adapt to the way he wants to play then at the end of the year see ya later!

A touch of Frostbite is better than a Junior Burger anyday!

Sheeeeit we had the chance to respond this week and what happened?? Too many players just content to play AFL with no desire, skills or footy smarts to be any more! We should be called Mediocremelb FC

This is telling! And I'll ask another question... Why was Ollie Wines was not recruited in Todd's tenure??? Eh?? And don't anyone tell me Bloody Jimmy Toumpas was the player reputed to be our saviour when we were crying out for inside mids!

LOL surely takin the peeezz!

Dazzle you and a hell of a lot of others are doing the same! Trengove and Grimes scapegoated for years of bad footy judgements! On what basis did Goodwin think 1 Dual Captains was the way to go? 2 Pick a young Jack Viney who really hadn't done that much and for me was a solid C+ Player!?? Would have been better of giving it to Max,or even Jack Watts. Poor decision that as you say continues to earn disrepute! I'll give you another spin on this Chunk Jones in my book quite rightly got his nose out of joint regarding this decision as well! Iv'e said before Viney needs a huge game next week, if he dosent deliver and gives the same stuff I would drop him no question. What he needs to do is stop this brainless trying to beat tackle after tackle by head butting his way through traffic and take a leaf out of Clarry Choo Choo's book, dish it of to first option. Yep he took a courageous mark and yes kicked a great goal but in the Maelstrom of his afternoons efforts a lot of poor decisons were made and he was not an effective leader or player and hasn't been for 4 weeks. That's my take!

Yep maybe we should apply for a Job!!

Interesting I would perservere with Hannan at the expense of Harmes!

To answer the tag question, is 2-2 acceptable? A resounding NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!

Yeah I agree third tall a handful of games some average to dreadful delivery. Time at Casey?? No way known! must be played and will become Stevie Johnson like or even better!
