The blood has started to flow.

Former Demon Recruiting Manager Craig Cameron recently quit his role as Tigers Footy manager, to take up the position of CEO of BC3 Thoroughbreds. Today he signed for the purchase of Black Caviar's little brother, for an Australian record price for a yearling at $5million. His company also bought the older sister last year for $2.6million.

Probably our projected budget taking a massive hit as a result of the current situation.

The media are not just messengers OD, that is the problem, they are bullies and vultures that feed off the carcasses of the weak. They are spineless and don't report the truth, but rather attack those find it hard to fight back.

Another couple of hundred new threads started. Becoming impossible to read.

Now the Media are calling for the AFL to take over the club. Let's examine that. A financially sound Company, that has assets and makes a profit, run by a Board that is elected by its members, is taken over by the AFL, because it lost two sporting contests, Oh yes I can see that happening. The club asking the AFL for help, well that is a different matter.

Give it a rest.

Agree. I said trade him 3 years ago when we could have got a couple of midfielders for him, his value was that high. He now has no trade value.

What about urologists and proctologists?

Agree. Lose 2 games badly, yes and then the AFL takes over the club. Demetriou would laugh his head off at the suggestion. However, ask the AFL for some help, draft picks, money, reverse the fine, admin advice , sure that is feasible and would be seriously considered.

He is and it hasn't. Have spoken to him a few times. He is a realist. He is also very experienced in AFL football. We are a poor list and have a pathetic midfield. That can't be changed overnight, but it will be. More pain to come but it does need to change in the effort department. hardest challenge will be to keep everyone together and trying.

A Saints mate had this suggestion as a start. Relieve the Captains of their role this year and maybe the next and make them Vice Captains under a hard nut like Jones. Jones would lead from the front and the two Jack's could concentrate on their games and gain some more experience. It is very hard for two youngsters to lecture older more experienced players.

Know where you are coming from. How happy would Dees supporters be to see the Dees winning, even with a few [censored] in the team? We have become the nice, pretty, boys ( with beards ) soft, losers.

Agree.

For a start we have the worst midfield in the AFL. We could have drafted more mids over the last few years but instead chose talls who were no good.

Sickened to see how right I was, even though I understated it. BP has destroyed this club.

Statistically speaking.

This has to be crap. An official of the club and also father of a new player fighting with the Coach after the first game, hardly likely.

It certainly would.

And there is my hobby horse of the last few years. Agree completely. As the old footy saying goes," it's hard to pull up your socks if you arent' wearing any."

I can see us putting up a good fight in the first half and then getting run over, with the Bombers 14 day break over our 6 day break being a big factor. After the battering the players copped I am sure their effort will be AFL standard, I am just not convinced with their talent.

Wow!

I'm Bad by Michael Jackson. I, I who have Nothing by Ben E. King.. Crying by Roy Orbison. Will you still love me tomorrow? by the Shirelles. I just don't know what to do with myself by Dusty Springfield.

I had the pleasure of watching him on ABC TV while I was checking out Gysberts' performance.

Great, everyone is having coffee and banana cake but me. Could I put this post on the "whinge" thread?
