    So they still make them. That's pretty cheap. $1 each for synthetic ice creams. The chocolate ones now taste like dirt. The banana ones might as well be made out of cardboard, given their taste. Even Cadbury's dairy milk chocolate tastes like plastic.

    Yep like winning tattslotto.

    i preferred the cola version, the glug.

    Prefer the watermelon ones. Talking about garbage won't upset you, like watching your team lose games it should win easily and throwing away chances at another flag.

    Well with no forward line, our 4th in the B & F unconscious at the 3 minute mark of the game, replaced by a newbie who did nothing and Petracca being forced to play more midfield as a result and still with 32 more inside F50 entries, which were totally wasted and having beaten them earlier in the season, you could argue we are a better team than Collingwood, right here, right now.

    Do they still make the banana paddle pop?

    They saved $12m missing out on Naughton.
  8. Straight swap for Bailey Smith and we will pay for Bailey's haircut.

    I suppose the difference is that several experienced recruiters are saying Reid is the best kid they have EVER seen.

    If you are correct and North don’t get 3, then getting 4 from GC would be the start of a trade to get 1.

    I have made that clear previously. I am thinking of changing my name to dazzlesdavey36, whispering jacks, rpfcs, binmans, demonstones, spirits of norm smith, jnrmacs or even Demonlands. Then again Demon Dynastys even though spelt incorrectly, has a nice ring to it.

    Roos are in the box seat, if they wish to put a lot of their eggs in one basket. They are the only club who can guarantee WC they will get Curtin if they trade 1. The McKay pick 3, will be the key to give them another high end player, if they trade away 2 and their end of first round gift and Port pick. Hawks just behind them. I can’t see us getting Reid now, or even in 3 years, if he goes to a Victorian club. Top draftees don’t usually leave their club early, unless to go home, ala LJ and JHF. We will have a very good draft hand though, to get a few top prospects. Maybe that is better than just Reid.

    How embarrassing that the the CEO can’t pronounce the names of the new Life Members that he is inducting. Didn’t he practice it. Insulting and unprofessional.

    Kynan Brown will be a Demon. Harmes will leave.

    Well there are many reasons why players retire with time left on their contracts. They may be happy to receive some money and walk away. They may be happy to end their careers as senior players not has beens. Pride. They may be in pain with injury. They may be frustrated at not being able to perform at their best. They may wish to earn extra money in a lesser competition, with less commitment required. They may wish to transition to coaching. They may have business reasons or family reasons. Etc. I don't think we will have enough list spots unless one or both retire. We have Fullarton, McAdam and K. Brown coming, Turner being uplifted, plus our draft picks, surely at least 3 and any other player we trade for. I think we definitely need more list spots. PS: BBB, Tom Mac, Schache, Verall and Jefferson makes for a very crowded Casey forward line, with maybe Fullarton and Faris-White as well..

    I have let it go, as we will use it for a player anyway, so 39, 35 or 30 it will go, just giving my view on the actual compo. It will go to Lions or Crows so no real biggie to us, I get your point though.
  17. Redleg replied to Random Task's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    If you paid them out 50% of their contracts as an example it would probably be a $.5m saving or $500k. Imo it is more about 2 extra list spots. We will hopefully have some good picks and would want to use them. Melk will probably go on Rookie list or inactive long term injury list too.

    Thanks.
  19. Redleg replied to Random Task's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    Think we really need to work on retiring BBB, unless his knee is magically healed and Tom Mac who at best will be at Casey all year, in a real sour end to his AFL career. It would be more respectful to retire them gracefully and go out as senior players with an agreement on contract payout.
  20. Redleg replied to Demonland's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    I don’t. 23 year old Premiership player. Whole career ahead of him. Ben McKay older and a worse player who has been injury prone and actually quite ordinary, likely pick 3. No way they are 36 picks apart. AFL have said age is a big factor in compo. The AFL do what they like. Anyway we will use it for a player so big deal. Good luck JJ with Swans and rest of your career.
  21. Redleg replied to Random Task's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    A very late pick.
  22. Redleg replied to Random Task's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    Is B & F streamed anywhere.
  23. Redleg replied to Random Task's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    That's probably unlikely, as then it would all have just happened, rather than him coming out and asking for a trade.
  24. Redleg replied to Ouch!'s post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    I am still hopeful of 11 for Grundy and spices. We should know fairly early next week. I would imagine the deal has already been agreed and it will be put through early, to allow concentration by both clubs on other deals.

    I have never seen banana GIn or Vodka. I think those companies are racist.
