picket fence

There is NO WAY KNOWN, that Danegrfield will come to Melb. You blokes are deluding yourselves but carry on! Just hope that when this is exposed as pure folly then the trip down is cushioned by a few tons of mattresses!

So the next level down of standard is it?? Sheeit Matty Bate has fallen greatly!!

And "Juice" was a contributor with 2 important goals .... Well done Go Norwood!

I would have keep Fitzy instead of Spencer !! HTF did he get an ongoing gig?

Yep entirely agree Moonman!! I am also very very disappointed! Cheeezas they were stiff, but shocking inaccuracy early cost them Sheeit how many times does Sgt Shultze miss from point blank. Sheeit I hate Hawks ever since preliminary final in 87

Hey Bitter but I know I might delve of the topic slightly but if you notice that in the adds section we have seemingly two categories of Girls who er Need the tender loving care of gentlemen who might er satisfy the "Tender lovin care" category 1 Asian girls who look er very nice category 2 Er some which er look PFO And not wanting to denigrate you at all but er Your avatar could well be one of the latter!!!! Ar any reason for this??? As for you Moon man have ya calmed down yet?????

Yep Jordie Mc Kenzie says HI!

AH THE FENCE, FIRST IN WITH THE NEWS,AS I ALLUDED EARLIER ( SEE MY PREVIOUS POST) SUGGESTING CRYPTICALLY THAT FREO WAS A LATE SUITOR! EVEN BETTER THAN BARRETT , "SHIP IN THE KNIGHT" ANCHORS AWAY IT'S FREO MAKING A LATE CHARGE! GEE IT'S GOOD TO BE "ONE THE MONEY" HEY MOON YOU STILL THERE ?? what do you make of this one eh?? What's that you say," Fluke" oh yeah fluke! my new avatar" Picket Fluke" Gee its good to have sources that really do know a thing or two! Bwah ha ha har!!

I am three persons in one! " " " anyway back to the thread, Jimmy Toumpas needs to have a stellar uninterrupted pre season and everything needs to go right next year, assuming he is still with us! Other than that Tom Mitchell used to live with Roosy, that should give him a head start, after all didn't whatshis name use to live with the Viney's?

HO ho Plonket! I like it "Plonket Fence" very good Moo, I do have some ideas, but would rather wait till after the Grand Final when almost all delistings have been made and we know the Status of our request for Draft assistance and the Frawley draft pick information relative to compenstaion is known. Then I would be happy to give you the "Foresight' of my "Recruiting" Acumen, based on players who I think we should target. Shall we call it the "Plonket Fence Phantom Draft? Oh one other thing,you really do need to stop drinking that cheap "Bowlers Run" wine

And as usual, if your logic won't suffice "attack the man" seems to be your typical response! Now where were we?? oh that's right Jimmy Toumpas, hnmm needs to show a bit!

Nup gave one reason as an example "Go Home" but really I was always an in an under fan not a outside receiver fan so really Oliie for me was a "No Brainer" But mate continue to push the dodgy "for" rationale basket, as wobbly and feeble as it is!

1 Two hip operations ( which have affected his pace) 2 Our greatest need for strong inside mid was palpably and culpably ignored ( and don't throw up Jack Viney) because you know who is miles ahead of him. 3 So if there is interest and it seems that there may be, and it's mutally beneficial, given what Roos has said anyone is up for grabs then does that same "I wanna play for Melb" really become so compelling??. 4 Is he really that good an outside mid? I mean other than a game or two where he played well has he really shown us anything other than cameos? 5 Before his appendix he was struggling to get a game in the ones at Casey, which do I need to remind you all, were absolutely shizen all year! As usual I am right on the money my friend and no amount of "FAIRY FLOSS" will sugar coat what has been yet another disastrous blunder by our recruiting dept!

No greatest crime was not being selected in front of Wines it was 1 Our greatest need ( inside ball winning ability was neglected) 2 Question marks over recovery after double hip surgery (pace gone) 3 Go Home factor. Regarding who PT would have taken my Sth Australian source strongly suggested at the time that Port would almost certainly gone with Toumpas.

Bah ha ha ha! "Overated" Iv'e now "Heard it all" Ollie Wines Overated!! Bah

Well for once it's good to be in minority even though it does my head in!

So why didn't he take him????? And if we don't point the finger at Neeld then Why when he knew the ability of Wines, was his sons best mate and wanted to come to the dees? WHY ??????

So Dazzler Why oh why did Todd take Toumpas when he knew KNEW full well the abilities of Olllie Wines and knew his son and him were best mates and knows ( as we all do ) you can't enough quality mids) so WHY OH WHY Then did he make this call?????? Eh?

Yeah but if your old flame was pretty special and you were seduced by the possibility of something better and she turned out to be a "Shocker" then how would you feel?

Nup not happy at the time and still not happy but as I have said if the go home factor is correct it is just one of many reasons we should not have gone near him> Um the other is WINES CAN PLAY not seen anything to suggest this bloke can!

Ah care to quote the Ablett stats from that day Dazzler?? And Stanton? IMV he is "just" a player!

Ah the sweet smell of prophesy!! nearly two years ago I said it Sheeeeeit I should be a recruiter!! If Phil whats his face can then surely the "Fence" can trump him!

Couldn't put a Tag on a Op Shop 50% off sale!

Don't know if this theory has been Touted but I just wonder" wonder" if Viney chose Toumpas because he might have had his Son's best interests at heart. I mean to say Wines is twice the player Viney is, even maybe more so. Hnmm some food for thought!

Yep and yep again, FWIW If the rumours are correct and he wants to go home I would trade in a heartbeat. A third rounder and or player should do it! A second round preferential but I don't think he's got that much currency! Best do it now because I cannot see him cutting it!
