picket fence

Well I jumped into the TARDIS and assembled a bit of a motley crew from 1975 Bob Skilton was Coach and we missed out on finals by a Whisker' Happy to have these Hombres ready for Wednesday Night! B Laurie FOWLER Ray BIFFEN Wayne DELMENICO HB Peter KEAYS Gary HARDEMAN Tony SULLIVAN C Stan ALVES( c) Greg WELLS Robert FLOWER ( ALL STAR LINEUP) HF Ross BREWER Graeme OSBORNE Marty LYONS F John SPARKS Steven SMITH Crackers KEENAN R Carl DITTERICH Garry GUY Billy BARHAM INTER Gary BAKER , Paul HURST, Graeme MOLLOY , Frank GIAMPAOLO. ID BACK THIS TEAM TO WIN ON WEDNESDAY NIGHT We have Pace , Skill, Defensive Skills, Footy smarts Grunt, dominant Rucks, Goal kickers and probably the most classy lethal and pacy centre line EVER IN FACT THIS TEAM WOULD GIVE OUR CURRENT TEAM A HIDING!

Not CAN will they?? I guess you already know the answer to the soft touch user friendly selections to date!??

Both on about 800 Gorillas.per year I fear for Lever, and his body! May ?? Jury is out there but between them there is 1.6 Mill per year for the next ?? Years Hnmm great value!

In , about a dozen or so players from the Australian under 18 team. Add Clarry, Gus, Max, Pruessy, Melky, Nev, and a few others and You have a ready made team!!

And what worries me more is.. What such position should he play and would opposition coaches care any more??

I had this exact same conversation with a mate of mine who played for the Dees years ago! He said exactly the same thing. Hnmm is the Coaching staff up to it???

Ah, I have plenty of Histrionics but aint sure about the rest!

Wow Well keyboards aren't my strength, But I get by! Now Spargo, "Has a Fortitude that outweighs Jeffy" eh.?? Well thats great, he also has a smart footy Brain too eh, not to mention his level headed approach! All Admirable qualities But he lacks a requirement or two to play more than a handful of games at this level 1 Skill 2 Pace 3 Goal kicking ability 4 Height Now, Jeffy has his moments, but hell give me a 300 goal PROVEN player to a 19 something could but probably won't be, for my above reasons! Your Move!

Yeah Coz Contested ball Guru Spargo is the answer!

Thanks Dieter, I needed that I now feel like

And that is a HUGE HUGE Concern!!

Sheeit, can I have some of what you are on??

Yep many far too easily pleased just wearing the gear and saying Yeah I work for the MFC Too much complacency!

Yep welcome to Wonderland Alice, This is right on the money. We have a team of bathwater drinkers ( Most) and coaching that seems not in anyway to be innovative, swarthy, adventurous and BOLD Where is plan B C and D Serious , Serious Questions remain. I almost think really Roll the dice next week and make a statement and make 5 or 6 changes , put a few on notice and Roll the Dice Need to play Garlett, May if fit, Keilty, Lockhart, Sparrow, maybe another Gone Spargo, Lewis, Both Wagners, Hibberd also too slow, Petracca needs a rocket! That's just for starters

Yep , yet some were comparing him on this site to Caleb Daniel !! Give me a break give me Caleb ANYDAY!

He is NOT a forward but just shows how desperate we are. Sigh if he plays he plays on a Wing thats it!

Yep sorry to say inspite of a few good things he is Done! Pace is nonexistent! If Goody can coach then he needs to call it!

You, you, you bad-cop, you, fence. Are you superstitious 'fence' ? NOW I SAY Nar not at all superstitious, Now where were we...?? Oh yes thats right Young Spargo, Fine player, has all the tricks will play 200 plus games real footy brain, Just one little problem No Pace, Cant lay a tackle, cant kick over a jam tin, and did I mention . He seems to be keeping out a player who has kicked over 300 goals. Name of Jeff Garlett. But we dont seem to be able to fit him into the team. Yep Spargo will be a great player no doubt!!

A Blind date is on the cards Uncle!

That's my opinion! lets review at seasons end, Maybe even after todays game. If I'm wrong ( doubtful but possible) I'll eat humble pie.

Won't even be on the list! As limited a footballer as I have seen!

Spargo will NEVER win us a Flag..... Spargo is still chasing Jeffys dust. Spargo is small, but he’s got poor-average pace and doesn’t hit the scoreboard. He’s more of a natural midfielder and isn’t suited to the small forward role. We need Jeff in the team. He’s the most proven goal kicker on our list and offers elite speed. Poor Poor reasoning and rationale but sadly FD agree. Watch this come back and bite us on the ARRRRRRRRRRZE

He should realise that his little Bro is a very limited footballer who has been very lucky to play at the highest level!

IMV doesnt do enough , but Spargo on a limited possessions game does!?

Disappointed ?? A slow limited player Spargo gets a Gig against a well known team of outside run?? Lockhart/ Jeffy anyone?? Utter Madness!!
