That may be today's reality, but it doesn't mean Col is a genuine KPD (CHB or FB) We can cope with current situation and we have versatility Sometime down the track I'd like to see a permanent genuine CHB Hopefully one of our young draftee talls will develop into this role Not at all saying a genuine CHB type is a necessity, just a nice to have I get the impression reading this thread that Cols tyres are getting pumped just a little To put it another way Col is a great HBF (or BP) but not a great CHB

c o n v o ? fmd, what is the world coming to

At the moment there is room to promote only one rookie (by way of 1 spare VL slot) Are you predicting a LTI by the start of the season?

But if the retail discount is matched by a similar wholesale discount from NB then no loss of revenue In fact at $79 and the fault being minor they may actually sell more and therefore make more? That doesn't help those who have to wait till April though and miss them as Xmas presents.

Thats the problem with so many definitions these days, they get so fluid or flexible that they lose their meaning and become meaningless These days some (not saying you) would describe even Stephen Milne or Stevie Johnson as key position forwards, but they are obviously not CHF or FF's. This may be an exception example but it illustrates the trend to butcher the vernacular. Not all teams have a genuine goal to goal line set of KPPs. Obviously they have someone playing in each KP but that is more out of neccesity than true ability and consequently they are forced to work around it by employing certain match day tactics. This just camouflages the issue. Some do it better than most. You don't have to have 5 traditional genuine KPP's to win a premiership. If not you just compensate elsewhere. But lets try and call a spade a spade. A KPP is not just a description of a physical position but also a description of a certain type of player and role. Someone is not a true KPP just because they plays a KP IMO, and at the moment, MFC does not have a genuine FF, CHF or CHB. I'm not saying either that we necessarily need all three. I would be happiest with a "dummy" FF, but a genuine CHF and CHB (all of which I can possibly see in the list depending on development) Hope this makes some sense

Gotta agree with jcb here Garland might be a key player but he aint a key position backman. That is he isn't a genuine CHB or FB. He may have been played there from time to time out of neccesity and he can pinch-hit there but he is too exposed to a genuine key position forward. Melbourne have been so starved of good genuine key position backmen for so many years that we forget sometimes what one is JMHO

Fev's the one who has it in his jeans

I used to know someone who was a hand model - maybe it was their's?

On the positive side, they might even become collectors items in the future, at the least a good conversation piece. When the mint make a small mistake they become valuable collectibles A double bargain!

big maxie

I'm quite happy with result. Having 3 demons is a great idea allowing for broader appeal and flexibility of targetting as well as building a family image of the club I guess though our female supporters might feel left out - maybe there is another 3 demonettes waiting in the wings? Designing a general purpose cartoon demon is not an easy job. A while back I google searched on demon images. Found 1000's of them but nothing offered something suitable for a football team or broad enough appeal A good result for a difficult assignment

I hope the players don't have to wait till April to get their correct jumpers!

So Rhino, is WYL your whipping boy, or are you just bullying Just curious

Correct Bullying is not a reasonable synonym for scapegoating or whipping-boy(ing) because it is not bidirectional A scapegoat is bullied but someone who is bullied is not necessarily a scapegoat

Just add sub-titles and it would be perfect for SBS

Good luck Jack if you can get any mental stimulation from that meaningless scribble Is about as exciting as the "game" it is purportedly discussing but you're such a round ball tragic you'll only see what you want to grow some balls, ditch soccer and give the Dees your 100% devotion - guaranteed to make you feel better

oh dear looks more like something done for the footy show

you took the bait rpfc now i wonder if any of the others will

Derryn Hinch used to till he cracked the shytes

rpfc, the fact that so many people missed the point seems to me to point to the fact that maybe the point in fact has not been pointed out adequately. If you understand this you get the point. your friendly (new) master demon

I'm not sure the AFL would allow this. It seems clearly out of the spirit of trading. I'm pretty sure the only "commodities" you can trade are picks and players. but we all know that for new franchisees the rules can be "flexible"

I believe they can with a certain no. of 17yos (Jan-Apr birthdates) prior to the ND only (similar to what GC could/did) but I have forgotten the details check google something like "GWS 17 DRAFT"

I'm very fluent, but i still don't get it either

sorry ox I edited it straight away when i realised poster id - check it out anyway being a nice guy and not wanting to offend anyone i capitulated and changed op it wasn't a derogatory statement but it was a mild stereotype for penance i will flagellate myself mercilessly
