  1. What a goose of a thing to say.
  2. This is an excellent choice as a sign-off. You should apply it more liberally.
  3. Im hoping but assuming the BP accusation from Ben-hur is a joke. Im fearful that the Riley accusation is true. I think it might be. Im no lover of Mike Sheahan but he is disgusted in the melbourne football club and in his words 'the worst thing is, they are irrelevant". He is spouting the same bile as many a true supporter does. I would have him on board at MFC. How about that? I believe there are a few supporters that are too objective and they take things too calmly. They are cold blooded. Last Thursday was the 1st time in at least 35 years when I wasnt interested in who we picked. Ive sacked footy tipping too, cant bear it any more. All the same it is going to get worse before the the draft. We have to wear it. We need to have hope we will rise again but right now, im thinking that light at the end of the tunnel may be a light globe.
  4. Liam couldn't hope for a more empathetic magistrate than David Bamber. Very aware of all the difficulties LJ has faced. Bamber is from Melbourne and a Demons supporter.
  5. Not sure if you are the real ted fidge etc.. Any time I see a good torp by anyone with short legs I think of Ted Fidge.
  6. My pet hate is "he should of..."
  7. Broken Jaw last year at the end of a pretty good Pre-season. Broken back (2 vertibrae) at the end of this Pre-season. I had a similar injury to this one Easter(surfing not Footy) and I was lucky to do my laces up that winter. he still isnt over it. He hasnt helped his cause either Its got to be said, but dont forget he was good enough to be in the international squad last year before he created his own FU. Keep him, for mine.Im backing him to finish the year off strong.
  8. Did you used to be called Ivan from ivanhoe?
  9. I saw that. I reckon he did that because the ball wouldnt come up and he had chased it for 10 meters already. He is happy to contest the man but he is confounded with an awkward bounce. He is a hard doer but I still remember how "lucky" we were supposed to be when we got him Pre-season from Brisbane. They must think we dont do our homework...
  10. He has taken that observation to heart Ralphy.
  11. I find it very difficult to barrack for a team that plays Joel MacDonald. I find it hard not to growl when I see Jack watts jogging outside a contest looking disinterested in the 1st quarter.
  12. Well since Alan Johnson for passing, but Jakovich and Bennett have claims too for Distance and Accuracy.
  13. TJ is at the Galleon in st kilda today and as he is with the president of Chelsea heights, I am guessing he might have another game for them this weekend. He played for them 2 weeks ago.
  14. Woudnt miss either the banner or extraneous national anthems Would swap both to go on the ground after.
  15. Dismayed how Petterd's career has downturned. My hopes for him have finally given way. I shouldnt be surprised but I am.
  16. There is at least one family I know who had a board member at that time who now dont follow Melbourne. Sad.
  17. Gentle rocking in Brighton but it lasted for 20 seconds. Got me up and rocking. spun the new remaster of Ziggy Stardust. 5 years. That's all we got.
  18. Whats more important to me is that someone smacks Tom Scully. Theres no school like the old school.
  19. Damo

    'ology

    I too am an old 'Ology user. It was fantastic, i was one of the 1st to sign up and old days were great. I moved when I found myself wanting to meet people just because i found them so rude. Other than the Racing Tips I wont miss it.
  20. My nephew played at Torquay for a couple of years. Boaks father Roger won a couple of B&F's there and has the grandstand named after him IIRC. You would think Geelong would have the inside running.
  21. I would move both Watts and Garland. Put watts in the back pocket on a small/medium forward and play garland on the wing.
  22. Bringing in the sub early always has an effect on the last quarter. This in part explains the exhausted efforts in the last.
  23. Too true. Wardy could find the footy and cover yardage quickly. He also wasnt a bad kick if he had time. What he couldnt do was run fast and compose a decent quick as well. Out of bounds on the full a fair bit IIRC. Chris YarrAn (and Mark Murphy for that matter) are so good because they can spot someone up while going flat tack. Hard low passes lace out while at full speed is what we want with one Sam Blease.
