Im surprised you dont hide his posts De-vina, Just thought everyone did.

All those players may make mistakes Bob, but they are fast getting rid of it. I would like Jack Grimes to succeed and if he just played on quickly rather than overthink each disposal his mistakes wouldn't be so blaring. This deliberating exacerbates his errors. He made some fantastic spoils.

Any Demons supporter except his apologists were fearful when Jack Grimes got the ball on the half back flank 3 points up 2 minutes to go. Says it all.

We realise the toll of going to the Northen Territory means we lose the following weeks.

I guess its been brought up by the unfortunates I dont read, but yet again we get smashed after returning from playing in the Northern Territory.

My Godfather! Standing in the rain on the steps watching Jack Watts I wondered if he just thought that the conditions dont suit him? To read some (if you cant say anything etc...) think that his team mates are hindering JW's career, is deeply disappointing. One level because it is possible thats what he might think. Another level it makes me wonder if many MFC fans are inclined to think that. But mostly because of Jack Viney's brave efforts today.

People will say they tried... I saw no pride in most of those players performances. No motivation to take a mark in the wet or nail a kick in favour of a team mate. I get so depressed with this team.

I like reading Saty's reports and although it can slightly irk me, I dont mind if he is thought of as a Demonland respresentative. I am happily part of that. Stick with it Saty.

Don't know much about history. Don't know much biology. Don't know much about a science book... But I do know that Lance avoided the axe until he was too old to ride. I can see this riding on till Essendons guilty players have had at least 2 more years of paid competition before they're compelled to stop.

Inscrutable humour again spunjy. good one.

Grimes is consistently poor.

If we did have a "precinct" it is in South Yarra, Prahran and Caulfield. I can imagine parkville enticing to those that live North of the city. That said, If there were better opportunities to attend training anywhere within 5 kms of the city and the club actually provided for fans to help attend i.e. afternoon sessions and food and toilet facilities, Id go there.

Junction Oval would be much better. Not tooth by jowl with Carlton.Melbourne University is in Parkville. If only someone could broker a deal with Cricket Victoria to get things rolling.

Brad Scott - once a bully always a bully. He will never admit (or even get) that he was way out of line. At most he will make a joke of it. Well done Tom Rockliff for defusing the situation.

Just saw this. Thanks Jack!

How did you get there from what I said?

OK Thanks BB I will read it later.

I feel Im being cornered into supporting the players but I dont really want to. If I got sacked from Hungry Macs for what was Hearsay I would appeal to a court. Its not simple.

Thanks BD that makes sense. So that means no actual law is broken which means Dank cant be made to show his records. I do understand that EFC and its players can be rubbed out of competition but Rules of Court dont apply.

Ok I get it. The court is in Egypt. Thanks for clearing that up.

Ok Dumb question 1) Is ASADA's case against Essendon ruled by Federal or States Laws? Im thinking its a Fed case but if it was a Victorian case there would be a "Mention" where evidence is shown to the defendant. That is fair. Dumb question 2) If Danks has got evidence (one way or the other) and he stated he isnt showing until a court orders him, why isnt he subpenaed? Is it still not a "Court of Law"? If any of the lawyers present has a simple answer to these I would be grateful. I dont feel comfortable thinking a court can charge you and not have to show evidence of why youre charged. Thanks

I really like Nathan Buckley and he may have let the lid off the pot today, but in general, I find his views very refreshing.

Actually the statue of Justice at Victoria's Supreme court is not blindfolded which is the only one in the world except the Old Bailey. Its meant to show that Justice is not blind. Having said that, the guy who hanged the Ballarat rebellers and didnt allow Ned Kelly to have a defence is celebrated with a statue in front of the Melbourne library. I prefer the statue of St George killing the dragon just near it. Probably closer to the truth than Redmond Barry's good deeds or that Justice may not being blind.

Yes the posts are informative. I do enjoy them. I dont like the thought that someone may be representing me (as part of Demonland) however the mood strikes them, to the club and its players. I accept my view may be churlish.

Sufferin' Succotash, Batman! Rohan Connolly and Mark Robinson's dramatics only sweeten the pot.
