Bring back Bohdan!

By whom?

Sounds like Luke Jackson must have pinched MD's girlfriend or run over his dog (or the other way around).

Who says we are flag favourites? Certainly not the bookies and, by extension, not the punters either.

I can't see us losing this one. If we do, I can attribute it to just the one cause. Sauce?

I doubt that my posting of a gag on a footy supporters' website would have any impact on the performance of the Melbourne Football Club, Mr. Hemingway. But, just to be sure ...

Hmmm, Carlton you say?

Can't you remember, P2J? Big Simon played in the same era as our own Robbie Flower, who you assured us in another thread that you had seen play. Unless you were being economical with truth, that is. Of course, to have seen these champs running around you would have to be at least in your forties by now and I don't think you're anywhere near that old, are you?

Notable by their absence on this forum when we are winning are Dr.D, Elegt and olisik. Maybe they (or is it he?) are too busy celebrating. Or something.

Yeah, I dunno wsw. I've always found such juvenile nicknames (eg. Port Adelaide Pear, West Coke, Essendrug etc) really tedious and childish. It's the sort of thing you'd expect from the immature teens on BigFooty.

I don't get this either.

As Jack Dyer once famously commented, he made a great debut last week and an even better one today!

I would argue the opposite, HFF and so would mental health professionals. This is a far preferable course of action compared to bottling things up inside.

I'd just like to endorse all the other posters in their praise for Goodwin outcoaching Ratten.

What was Donald Trump Jr. doing out there in the first place?

Boy oh boy! Wowee! I almost spat out my cornflakes when I came across this news item in The Daily Bugle this morning. It's absolutely incredible! I can scarcely believe it... I hope it's OK by the mods if I reproduce the article in full. In what is believed to be a first in world sport, Melbourne Football Club is on the verge of sacking its entire coaching staff and replacing them with a group of fans from their website Demonland. This innovative and radical move would save Melbourne millions of dollars and shore up their financial position in perpetuity. An anonymous source from within the club says that they have long valued and admired the collective judgement and football wisdom of Demonland posters and that it would make sense to make use of their talents, particularly when it would cost nothing at all. CEO Gary Pert has refused to comment publicly, but insiders claim that he sees this move as a game changer that would put Melbourne ahead of the curve. When contacted for comment, under siege coach Simon Goodwin stared into the middle distance while absentmindedly scratching his left leg before saying in a flat voice "The reality bus is full of learnings and I've recognised for some time that Demonland posters know much more about this coaching caper than I ever will. I could see their involvement bringing about instant and ongoing success for the team." Our source can also reveal that List Manager Tim Lamb has conceded that his position was redundant given the collective expertise on tap and was looking forward to Melbourne cutting out all the deadwood on the list and winning every trade period in future. Recruiting guru Jason Taylor is said to be equally enthused and was overheard saying that he was looking forward to the parade of champions that would be drafted from here on and that the Demons would never pick another spud with the experts in charge. President Glen Bartlett has privately conceded that the entire football department is on notice, with the possible exception of the boot studder, the doorman and the bloke who cuts up the oranges at three quarter time. The Selection Committee is also expected to be given their marching orders and be replaced by a poster who has not been identified but is believed to live in the vicinity of Werribee and who has agreed to take on the task of weekly team selection on the proviso that the side is printed IN UPPER CASE. While this amazing news has been greeted with widespread enthusiasm from the Demonland faithful, a cautionary note has been sounded by one long-time fan who wished to remain anonymous but agreed that he was an Old Dee and said that he was pessimistic that these changes would help and predicted that Melbourne would never be any good. Melbourne Football Club remain tight-lipped about this visionary proposal with a formal announcement expected to be made at a supporters function to be held on 1st April at the Spearmint Rhino Gentlemen's Club in King Street.

He is named as an "out" on the AFL website, along with subs from other teams who have been omitted from the squad.

I think I heard somebody say that Blicavs is tall and athletic. Funny it's never come up before.

Would Rohan be looking at a couple of weeks holiday for whacking Neale in the chops in the first quarter? Agree that Selwood should have a case to answer for that tackle.
