we wont be alone I wonder how many other little gems of 'secrets' are yet to find daylight ??

I only suggested Calder as an example of different sort of venue..away from the city. its been used for big day out type things. But hey...you spotted the problem straight away.. lack of public transport.. Specialist arrangements are made. This wont happen just for George Michael etc. Visy, Showgrounds, Caulfield, have all done events before..theres no problem using them...what are these restrictions you speak of ? Sandown is another.. probably a better bet too. Has railway not too far away..lots of parking.. already has all the facilites. Do your sums carefully ...and check and recheck them. . Suggest you look into the health issues.. Food and beverage licences /permits. Public Liability.. Security...and the list goes on .... oh the promoter invariably underwrites the occasion too...hope you have very deep pockets

am only guessing but more than likely a link to justin tv will appear others may know more

I come up with 10 as best case... 8-9 probably more realistic.. but its a very sage point you offer about the first round. Until we see some NAB action and see that first fair dinkum round we wont really know where we are at. I dont think its at all impossible to beat either or both of Ess and Carlton.. In fact on our day we WILL surprise anyone that takes us as a given. So many games can come down to goals if not points and just depends which side of the gate we find ourselves on those occasions. I definitely think we can give the Filth a run. North will roo their games with us . Toiges will be fun Some how we can often lift in recent seasons for games against the top teams. West Coast at the G ought to be ours. If we can put some solid winning quarters together early enough we can build into some good wins. Port at Darwin might be more successful than Port at AAMI. still.. ??

he plays sort of short for all of his giganticness ( sic..i know..I know !! ). Quite agile and doesnt look awkward. Quite something really

Wasnt being flippant.. just matter of fact.. Firstly you have to ask...does teh MFC want to go into this sort of business..much underwriting...not always a given you make squillions.etc. But lets say for the moment we do. Nearly all larger type concerts are held somewhere where sufficient infrastructure exists. An arguable example to the contrary ( just to help out..lol ) might be Calder...But that is very contained.. Casey isnt really..its quite open. I would suggest that the validity of needing the venue in the outer east accessible to Gippsland is debatable. Thats very much like the mountian going to Mohomed. Existing venues for larger concerts already exist at .dare I say it..Visy ( but precedent set ) Showgrounds.. .. Caulfield ( RC ) . You have to consider the demographics of potential audiances to these things. They are going to want a fair amoutn of public transport. Thats still a bone of contention about Casey...hopefull attended to one day with extension to Cranbourne East. The above mentioned arenas have track records. In the old days it could have been held art Artic Park. In many ways his is a chicken and the egg thing.. If Casey was already a boutique stadium...with all facilites including transport...then indeed there is much potential for many things.. keep in mind...its not OUR venue.. We cant use these events to build the place...only really the other way around.

Melbourne newest player........ SKULLY !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Harrington and Predergast have been hinting for some time that 'talls' were definitely on the radar for picks 3 and 4. Just how tall or how KP theyve totally left us in the dark about. Fair enough as theyre playing it for real and we're all really just guessing.. ( educated and otherwise ) I find it interesting that at least two of the more noted observers to drafts have Gawn with us at 18. Now Im reading into this that some intimation for this came their way. i.e they arent stabbing in the dark here. Not long to go now...

and counting.... prob be 2010....in 2010 !!

do not ask what the club can do for you think what you can do for your club B) ( with apologies to jfk )

you know...if we're not careful we could just end up with more than a halfway decent football team !! would quieten a few ferals out there

youve been talking to Barrry havent you

a/ we take him................................ so be it.. get ya skates on laddy... b/ we dont take him..........................obviously better options.... might be a message...might not be. Wont lose sleep c/ he ends up at Essendon................ still my thinking.. a good and necessary fit for them d/ he ends up at Collingwood............... cough..cough... ohhhh Mr Demetriou.... a closer look please. Still the Filth need a lot of help.. Hed go well with Jolly.... but theyd still 2 players shy of a real crack of a team

Id rather Meesen than Juice also. even if we were to get Gawn he is an unlikely starter ( even on pine ) until proabbaly mid year. Conditioning, coaching...and games in the twos..leading into his debut.. Leaves Jamar and Spencer with possibly Martin pinch hitting.. If we dont have Meesen. Still might be this sort of attraction that has the Hawks interested. Going to be a very interesting evening for many reasons

as an aside...I see elsewhere mentions of a 2 year deal already done with JM and that he's started training with us already . Can anyone verify ? cheers

There are many more venues/grounds around with far better general transport and asociated facilites. Whilst beneficial in some maner to casey its pie in the sky stuff. No harm in thinking..

No matter how enamoured the Toiges are with Jordan ...he'l always be thought of fondly at Melbourne. How often does but one kick ....change so much !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D

Given the relative scarcity of talls there may indeed be some legs to the idea that a club who is still scratching around in the 70's ( picks ) might think him worth a chance. Be good for all concerned

I have it on authority ( AD ) that tanking doesnt exist. Collingwood would appreciate that also no doubt. However draft tampering obviously does. Credit to Ball for wanting to choose, sympathy to him for wantig to play for Filth. I think should Ball ineed get to your lot then there will be cries of foul after the dust has settled and should he and his management be found to have committed tampering I hope the League comes down on him/them like a ton of bricks. Looking forward to round 2

based on ? keep i mind they then would come under the fitness management of the club as opposed to the sfa they have had to date.( by comparison )

We really only have Jamar as fair dinkum ruck stock ..ready to go. Spencer is still a work in progress. Martin may morph. Meesen seems on borrowed time. You want one more ..no ??

but why would you not still sign them up...then its first in best dressed. Great potential for up selling etc. But see what you say...if its paramount to offer everyone a seat. Lost opportunity for mine..still Interesting position to be in... knocking back people... we wish

rpfc...youre better than the glib-bites you offer. I was actually answering to something.. If you have nothing to add.. do just that... however..VVVVV Ive said my fill on this.. he can go at it all he likes. He wanted more explanation.. I gave it.. finis I am happy to be swayed.. indeed this whole account shows it. Was sceptical.. now am not. I only see discussion.. no battle

Its not too silly a game plan given our limited current stocks

I think last year there was some indecision based upon which club was going to pick which player in the first 3-4 selections. we know this year.. 1 2 and effectively 3.. 4, 5, and 6 could all but be penciled in as well.. its when you get closer to our 3rd pick it can get interesting. as per MB the picks are tall as hinted to by Harrrington. Not long now
