Bombers scandal: charged, <redacted> and <infracted>
Chook replied to Jonesbag's topic in Melbourne Demons
What!? They do? Oh God, I'm screwed! -
I'd love to pick it up. I don't have a dog, but I'd put it out front with a red and blue Beagle lying on top.

Perhaps the AFL adds a subsidy that would multiply the club's offer by that club's average finishing position over the last x number of years. A club that finished an average of 18th over the last 5 years would be able to pay an equivalent of 1.8 times whatever they're offering. A club that won the premiership would receive no subsidy at all (1.0 times their offer).

Did she have an Indian accent?

We should draft Evan Panozza. He seems like a handy footballer.

Wow. You know it's time to retire when that's the best thing someone can think to say about you. Kicked a pretty ripper goal against the Doggies earlier in the year.

Non-Jack Watts threads always digress to discussion of Jack Watts. Jack Watts threads always digress to other topics.

Taste in sport is like taste in music. I happen to love watching tennis but hate watching golf and basketball. I love playing tennis and basketball, but I've never had any interest in even trying golf.

If you ask me, the AFL would have a lot to gain from bringing the career of someone like Liam Jurrah back from the dead. An indigenous player with his talent and background would be the greatest possible role model to people of all walks of life who would like to become involved in the industry, but whose personal circumstances seem prohibitive. Get on it AFL!

What a pathetic thread title. No offense to anyone, but come on...
-
I was one of this guy's only defenders early in the year, but after about the first Brisbane game I found less and less to support.
-
Heh. You love a man.

Do you even know what WAG stands for?

I'm surprised either party would have wanted a three-year deal, but I guess this is good news.

How is that relevant? In case you didn't know it already, Miller won't actually be playing for us.

They're getting pretty incestuous up there in Brisbane town. I don't get the attraction, but whatever.

Uh oh. I smell another Jack Watts.

The Priority Pick is dead! Long live the financial assistance package!
Chook replied to deanox's topic in Melbourne Demons
I'm okay with not getting a priority pick this year because of the Hogan situation. But if we're in the bottom four again next year (which I believe would make it the eighth year in a row), then surely we'd qualify for the utmost support. -

So another barrel of money winds up on our doorstep and that's supposed to fix everything? Since when has that ever worked for anyone? -
"Underperform" is all relative. I suspect if you cracked the top ten of the BnF in your dreams you'd be over the moon. To actually do it in real life takes a level of commitment 99.9% of people don't have. Perhaps "leadership" is the ability for ordinary people to make extraordinary people out of themselves.

I've always thought of Brad Miller and Chris Dawes as very similar people and players. I rate Chris Dawes as a future senior coach; so given that, I'd expect Brad Miller to be a pretty good coach as well. I like it!

What more can you say that hasn't already been said? "Have my babies Nathan?"

So?

Garlo is miles better than Rivers was even at his best.
