  1. It is and 8 people are up there atm.
  2. The guy is an idi-t and frankly quite nauseating.
  3. Takes a nice mark and kicks a good goal after running to make position from CHB.
  4. It looks like KFW is starting to learn the ruck game. Would like to see him after a solid pre season in the gym. Not writing this kid off.
  5. Yes. As I said, you arm or wrist them.
  6. Reid very often goes the Dusty fend off and we should be ready for it. The grabbing of his wrist and pulling it towards you, is possibly the best thing to do in this case, as it throws him off balance, stops him running away and forces a quick kick if he can manage it or htb or a ball up. All of which are better than him fending off and running away.

    He is less chance than Fullarton.

    This is not a good sign for Fullarton. We had our tallest forward out injured and the FD went instead with a 186cm forward, back after nearly a year out injured, without a Casey game, in preference to Fullarton, who is about 200cms and was traded in as a back up ruck/forward. Playing Fullarton would have allowed JVR to play solely forward and that would have been helpful to his game imo. There is no doubt that Melk is a better player than Fullarton, but we obviously didn’t go horses for courses. I am not arguing about the selection, but rather pointing out that Fullarton will struggle to get a game while Max is playing.

    You really do deserve praise for your commitment to the club and the players. Very few attend as much as you do and imo it gives you every right to voice your opinions on all things to do with the club and maintain your strong defence of everything MFC. You go girl.

    With a 2 day less break as well.

    2 of the oldest players in the AFL in top 3 for possessions for Pies with Daicos at 3/4 time.

    He will stay with Saints.
  13. Cripps is 195 cms which is nearly 6 foot 5 inches.

    Just for the record I am not advocating for Sheldrick or Robertson particularly, but rather players who could help us that aren’t getting a game regularly because of star studded midfields.
  15. I am a fan of Jeffo and have stuck fat. The decisions for the FD are probably is there a spot atm, is he ready to go at senior level, would a poor debut hurt him mentally and set him back and is he better than others available, or more deserving of an opportunity. Fullarton played in a final against us, plus other senior games, did ok and yet hasn’t got a game with us yet. Maybe this week will be his first. I am sure we have spoken to Jeffo about his progress many times and hopefully he is on board. Maybe he gets a game later or maybe another pre season is needed. Whatever, I am hopeful he will make it and when he comes in, he stays in, rather than being not ready and disappointing and setting him back.

    Nailed it. Mine is GC.

    While Sheldrick and Robertson might be a bit small, they are talented. Sometimes these sort of players are good gets, as they are just being kept out of their senior sides by exceptional players who are ungettable anyway and these guys can be just a little, or more perhaps, behind the stars. There is no doubt the Swans and Lions midfields are excellent. These sorts of guys often have a bit to prove and can be very good players for another club. They would not be expensive trades either. We certainly need a few more mids, that is fact. A back up ruck is another need. If Petty stays, I think we will be ok for key position players, as he can return to the backline when May finishes and we have upcoming key forwards and backs and can get more over the journey.

    Think he has one more year in contract and is best mates with Blake Howes. Just saying.

    Heard you graduated from the Dale Carnegie college recently Uncle.
  20. Very philosophical layzie.
  21. Redleg replied to Redleg's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    Leave Rivers goal or pay Max his mark and it would have been.
  22. Redleg replied to Flag Favourites 3019's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    King is staying with the Saints and they are working on a new contract.

    Your key words were "to some extent." How many African kids play for the Dees? Maybe the extent is nil, certainly it is that atm.
  24. Redleg replied to Redleg's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    What does with what they do?
  25. Redleg replied to Flag Favourites 3019's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    Any more Reid money will be 2 years off and others will be leaving and they could front end Waterman a bit. He won't leave, Eagles will get the deal done.
