When you say "we" do you mean the MFC or you. It may be the case that Brock was offered a lot more than we would pay and that the pick offered was seen as necessary to get a certain type of player needed more than Brock. It probably also makes two mids for 1 & 2 a certainty. 11 will get us a tall forward. 18 might even get us another like Everitt.

Agree. He had lost weight and looked very fit. He played on ball and had a fair bit of it and I was getting excited and then injured. Think he would do well playing at the feet of LJ with short stints on the ball.

Then again on the footy show last thursday Hutchy said Pendlebury will play, end of story. PS. I tape the footy show, fast forward to Hutchy and get the goss and then delete the whole show. I can't watch that crap.

The more I see, hear or read about JT, the more I like Jordan McMahon. He could arguably go down in history as the player who did the most for the MFC without ever playing for us.

Agree. Might join his brother. They are chasing everyone else who can kick a footy, even girls according to the president.

On One Week at a Time tonight Walls just said that Burgoyne was not worth half the $700k he was seeking. Interesting.

Correct. Plus possibly another $100000.00 as Visy weather ambassador.

Thanks. I remember when the big money went on Warnock thinking he has played 22 games in 4-5 years and is still skinny and injury prone. He again missed most of this year with injury and once again is injured. I am not disappointed we didn't get him. $400000.00 down the toilet so far for Carlstink.

Heard something on the radio today that he was being pursued by Carlscum and that he could be cleared. Apparently upset at not making their finals side. I must admit I have not seen much of him and can't offer an opinion. Have other Demonlanders seen much of him?

Thanks Fan. I really just want us to all be aware that sometimes there are players out there not coming from the usual avenues that can still play AFL. Whether they be recycled like Dawson, from the indigenous communities like Jurrah or mature age like Harry Taylor. They don't all have to be Burgoyne, Judd or Scully.

You obviously saw something I didn't if you think he shat himself tonight. I (and the TV commentators) thought he played a great game. He also has great disposal.

I'll give you a certainty. Hall will be in a Bulldogs jumper next year unless some other key forward jumps into their lap.

Thought it might be an appropriate time to refresh this and suggest that you don't have to be a Burgoyne to get looked at. Rookied and played nearly every game for the Saints. Next week the GF.

He is not "the" answer but he is another option when needed. He did kick 5 goals in a structure that was not designed to assist him.

If the article in the Australian is true and he wants $150000.00 a year more to play with us than Hawthorn then he can go and get stuffed as far as I am concerned. I would be more interested in trading with Port to get the first round pick they will get from the Hawks for him.

Hutchy is absolutely certain he will play. We will see.

I wouldn't lose any sleep over it.

The voice of reason.

Unless he is traded or we pick up another experienced forward I disagree. I can't see us hanging Watts out to dry on his own as the sole big man up forward. PJ doesn't really fit the bill and I am not sure Martin on a permanent basis does either.

Agree, they should be referred to as Carlstink or Carlscum.

I don't know. See Hannibal's post. I smell a rat.

If true, does that give my "conspiracy theory" posted above, legs.

Thought it sounded a bit funny. Flying dogs.

Great song Centrals " we are the mighty flying dogs", is the last line.

Maybe not. $2M over 4 years to a 27 year old with talk of a bad knee. How about a little conspiracy theory to keep us all thinking. WHAT IF Port know that his knee is stuffed and have told him they won't pay anything like what is being suggested and have told him to look around get the best offer and then walkout. They then trade him after a hard week of negotiating at trade week. They get a good deal as the week draws to a close and so does he. He and Choco apparently get on well. Maybe Choco is helping him get the big bucks off a rival.
