  1. where has Warnock ever said he DOESNT want to go to Melbourne ?? Its a preference for the Blues..not an absolute.. If he was so bloody adamant about it..he wouldn't be letting Freo do the talking.. !! But he is.. so he must be aloowig a couple of destinations in his thinking..surely. So again.. either the Blues do a deal.. or get out the way!! :D This is hard nosed business.. simple as that.. its not penny any stuff..Its big time and for keeps !!
  2. S P E C I A L !!!!!
  3. I suppose slow and steady wins the race.... but its about as much fun as watching paint dry isnt it..waiting for a ruck !! Hasnt really put a foot wrong on his learning curve. Lets roll out the cliches......... another preseason.. more time in gym.......and a bigger menu for the kid !! hows that paint now ?? lol
  4. Superfluous to requirements.......unless its for door duty at the disco !! Not quite what we're after Im afraid !!
  5. Russian's a bit of a one trick pony...and its really not that brilliant a trick. Ought to enjoy a long and healthy VFL career.
  6. Im well aware of how a mediator would work...what I question is why the %#@* he would even be there. If Carltank cant do a deal..then tough sh!t !! next in line please !! Thats it..end of argument..
  7. I must confess Im a bit miffed as to why or how a "mediator" is allowed to enter the picture. I would have thought market forces and rules applied. Simple as that. If two parties dont agree at present, there are avenues for other outcomes. That should still apply.. You cant FORCE one club to accept a deal it doesnt want to ..esp if it knows another better is around the corner. The AFL needs to step back here. It cant show any form of favouritism. Let the dice fall as they will. Sounds typically shonky doesnt it.
  8. Says it all When your swimming for your life you tend to get a bit earnest in your efforts !! and its very much sink or SWIM !!
  9. I think ol Aussie suddenly found himslef in a spotlight he wasnt prepared for..and it got a little hot for him. Another preseason..a bit more settled..and more confident will see him a big improver I feel in 09. I liek his work ethic..its no nonsense. Yes he enjoys a goal, but he puts a lot of work in around the ground. He just needs to make more of the effectiveness of this. I look forward to watching him in 09
  10. Leons was pretty impressive..a fairly worthy winner. Lloyds ????? buy them in six packs at the Supermarket surely !! nothing that special..many other marks through year better. L is very over rated...VERY
  11. Theres always been a small tribe of @#%*!'s against the idea...their perogative I guess.. but nothing new here
  12. What did this email allude to.. Forget the gist..what does it refer to ? What sort of source does it quote. Without casting apersions.. why should we take any of this as gospel ? can you enlighten ? cheers
  13. I disagree Trade week is a game of circular dominos. It starts theorectically form a known position but in reality its an illusion.. Clubs have their starting positions but they seldon allign....Its a bit liek shuffling a deck. It takes quite a few goes and a good knock to get the cards back into shape. Trade week is a bit like the Sprint in cycling.. Everyone knows where the finish is..but you want to get there in shape and in "your" time. It take some time..and considerable thinking to mull over the various offers and their knock on effects. No-one in their right mind is going to make a snap decision.. Futures and life altering moves are at stake here. I think anyone who considers that this is a slap dash effort is being a tad unrealistic!!
  14. why?? this is often bandied about.. but based on what?? There are over 3 million peole in Melbourne..footy supporters come from all over.. why wouldnt Dee supporters ?? Ive never quite understood the notion that we're supposed to be some sort of inner city creature
  15. patience... patience...lol :D wouldnt ya love to know what's really going on in the back rooms !! .hehehehe
  16. which is a whole lot different to the wandering nomads of last year !!
  17. Rhinos quite right.. was pointless to consider a start to training any earlier than we did last year.. There was also the point of ..WHERE ??.. Not a problem this year...tfft !! We ought to see many things start and finish better next seaon...Of course..ought and will are different words !! lol
  18. I'm a little intrigued as to how it will all go...how..or what they will ask etc.. I doubt any immediate results available. But shall report back as to what transpires
  19. well..said Daughter took the bait...I'll swap her voucher for cash...and she gets a book too. Trust me..lol. she luuuurves reading !!. Will cost me a lunch too..but hey..we're out so we're gunna eat anyways!! I love my daughter ( today !!! ) :D .. well everyday...just a bit more today !! lol
  20. Martin Martin Martin.....whats to "develop" ???? we've done it for you !!!
  21. There is...of sorts.. Accordingto the Grand Plan... they are looking to develop all sorts of things. Amongst this is common infrastructure. So the more things thathappenthere thebeter in many ways. Would also add to the argument for a Station !!
  22. a great player in his day. that day has passed good luck in the future Jeff..listen to the voice of common sense..step up to the next part of the journey...the one beyond playing .
  23. Another nod to medicority Well lets hope that list reads differently in a few years !! <_< God who votes for the Bluey Given Bluey was reknown for his accuracy of disposal...Somewhat ironic surely that the guy who won it cant hit the side of a barn!!
  24. I will be very surprised now if any one's other than Watt's name is read out come pick 1.
  25. remarkable.... we all agree landmark occasion !!
