When have I heard that before?

Better build a concrete fence as they have broken too many.

Maybe the players will rebuild the house, while they are attempting to rebuild our trust in them.

See my post before yours.

Good luck to them trying as the house was demolished last saturday.

How do you delete a post?

I watched this bloke pretty closely the last few games and noticed that he applies no pressure and doesn't like the contest. His attribute is pace. Don't think he would be a target.

As has been posted by a few others, we should now avoid recruiting any depth players. Any trades or FA's should be seen as best 22 or ignored. The draft can give us more depth players, being the ones that don't quite make it, added to those we retain.

Can assure you Moonie, that I will treat the summer training posts, articles and photos, as BB described in the post below yours.

I know all that and obviously appreciate the important things in life, but as you say and I am not even sure why, a week later, but I am still really p-ssed off with the players and coaches.They let the fans and themselves down and wasted a golden opportunity to have some finals experience, give everyone some reward for the rotten years, enhance sponsorship, membership, fixture and recruit opportunities, but they just blew it big time. That still really annoys me.

Can't wait for the training the house down crap to start again.

Don't know why I let this team upset me so much. 11 years of crap and finals there for the taking and we dish up that pathetic first quarter and only a slightly better rest of the game, against a depleted young side playing for nothing other than some pride. Then again we probably have none. I should have stuck to banana smoothies and forgot about the footy.

But won it well enough to give it a win.

Good starts to games.

Bombers will re sign him.

That should be the sole mantra for trades, unless they are seen as a developing young player.

They were to fend off people wanting to borrow money from Dusty.

That's true, my gripe is he played us and other clubs, when he was already signed with Carlton mid year. You can take that to the bank.

Never to us. It would have been hard to get him that year, as he had already committed to Dick Pratt, before he pretended he was still deciding which club to go to and wasted our time looking at our facilities and discussing his move. Not my favourite footballer.

I can't mention our first pick of the at year, as you would know from the biggest thread ever on Demonland and because he doesn't exist to me, but Trengove was not a mistake, as every club agreed he was 1 or 2 in that draft. Port even offered us 2 first round picks a la the Kelly deal for him. Unfortunately for us now, we refused. The Tigers a few years later offered us pick 12 for JT , subject to a medical, which he failed. Our target with pick 12 was none other than Jake Lever who was still there at that pick. As we all know Trengove's career was ruined by us and his injury, which robbed him of any pace he had. JT is a great bloke and sadly his AFL career will end this off season.

I guess you would have to say pick 29 for an AA is pretty cheap.

Trust may have stormed out as well.

I am interested in the term "done deal". To me it means the player has selected us and the clubs have agreed on the price. I would say it is a million to one on that definition to be a "done deal". IMO at best, the player has selected us and advised us of that. That is not a "done deal". Feel free to enlighten me.

Actually a few years ago every team could have had him.
