  1. unfortunately I am looking after a family member just out of hospital post op.. so cant really duck out tomorow to attend the council meeting ( bugger). Look forward to hearing outcomes cheers anyway
  2. WJ..Ive finally a chance to sit down and have a look at the MFC site....where's this Plan outline ?? cheers
  3. Seems like he'll be one of these blokes.. Got talent..comes straight in.. get a bit wobbly and never quite finds his rythym. Then has a solid preseason.. fills out a bit and comes back "in tune"..and is a gem Theres more than a little something abou thim
  4. ok...someone has to say it.. This is very one dimensional !! Many of us have come up with ideas that would not only facilitate greater donations..Arguablynot al lin a one hit block..but certainly able to do greater damage over a year. And be TAX DEDUCTABLE. Those that want to say Im just be negative.. go for it..all line up over here >>>>>>>>>>>> This is very gung ho and not too bright. I will be giving in other areas.Surely we have greater acumen at the club to come up with better ways than this. Sorry folks .very disaappointed if this is "The great plan !!"
  5. No..Taswegian is quite correct..pertains to the inhabitants..not the ilk of geographical location In all my travels I have never come across a more Footy mad place than Tasmanina..even more than Melbourne.. if ever a place deserved its own jumper is Tasmania. I understand and not necesarilydiagre with al teh reasons for other places being developed....but Tassie is surely a worthy participant
  6. I think the very notion that this #3 is to be "BUILT" is the curiosity .....Optus Oval after all..already has been !!
  7. Cranny East WILL be built.. I just cant tell you when !! lol. An easement for it exists.., in fact a number of possible locations have been mooted.. The most reent is essentially just across the road and up a bit..about a 400-500 metre walk to Casey Fields. Its not earth shatteing to rehabilitate this part of the line. A major road level crossing needs refurbishing and recommisioning. Some couple of K of track needs renewing and tamping. aswell as overhead strung up as well as build the station of course; but its all very doable. Someone with intent just needs to throw the switch onthis into "GO" Its always fallen off the "to do list" as not enough political capital in it yet !! emphasis on YET !! Theres an election in a few years..theres a Gov on the nose.. and there's opportunities galore to be made out of this. If I could get a bet on Id say you be boarding and alighting trains at East Cranny..or more probably CASEY FIELDS station in about 4 years !!
  8. you sir can go wash your mouth out and do a 1000 lines.. I must never suggest Victoria Park...I must never suggest Victoria Park.. off you go...!! <_<
  9. well..at first I thought a similar thing.. why not recommision optus. tThere has to be a reason, probably to do with rights..signage.. ownership etc. Then I thought..If they were comtemplating another CBD ground..this would make sense. therefore..( as far as this very simple argument goes ) they are not particularly looking at a central venue as we know it. Possibly one furhter out...possibly one closer to the newer population centre ?? Would make sense to locate back out inthe South East..as it only builds upon the argumetns that lead to Waverley..except the new Waverly is further East !! as suggested..the thick plottens !! You can only imagine a certain councill wil wake to this news and be making a beeline for AFL house !! lol
  10. AFL CONSIDERS BUILDING A THIRD STADIUM IN MELBOURNE AFL BLUEPRINT FOR THIRD STADIUM Well this is something that some of summised some time ago.. its all a bit 5 into 4 once the new franchises hit the deck !! Ought to be interesting watching this develop.
  11. all ye of little faith !! look beyond the obvious !! Nate's been a bit rusty...a clean and polish in the magoos wil do him no harm
  12. Id say theres a generous helping of list 'management" here...but in tandem with other outcome possibilities. Bailey likes to see players step up to the mark..he likes to see what some do under pressure and how well they handle themsleves in new tasks..What better time to do it when your not really in the fray of finals contention. No cause for concern here folks...move along
  13. A pleasure... obviously able to read between the lines.
  14. All I can suggest is that very few of you take up poker !!! lol.. Seldom is anything what it seems...especially a footy team trying to try and yet trying to accomplish what they must !! If you dont get that...then you simply dont get what is going on Its about balancing longer term aspiration with short term jobs...all the whiles giving a handful a shot at either redemption..or a chance !! Basically a juggling act with sherrins !!
  15. just out of curiosity..of all those lampooning such a stance( as per article ) ..how many were old enough to watch the dees in the 80's and 90's ??
  16. We better hope so !! hey !! Still I'll be happier when we have an idea about this "plan" and such. Ra-rahing and scarf waving dont a resurgence make. I have no doubt Jimmy has his ideas. I also have no doubt we didnt field our best teams at times. We need to understand we have no second chance now. Yes...we had better grownup from the 90's ..hadnt we !!
  17. People may well laugh at the idea of a Hollywood at Melbourne but as an observer.and in that context only it did seem like there was definitely an inner sanctum. You can still be a shambles and get a few results on the board..what happens if there is no infrastructure or culture to sustain anything of note.. Oh..whats that...we didnt did we !! So many are quick to dismiss..to give a holier than thou slant on history... History is black and white.. and ours is far from rosey.. I Suggest a few people take a decent doese of reality pills. yeah this Jerk isnt the best of the crop...that doesnt necesaarily discredit all of what he has written !! After all..we are such a successful club huh !! with no signs of disarray or controversy??
  18. we couldnt get his mate's girlfriend to don a Melbourne Jumper ( just the jumper !! and briefs..of course..lol )
  19. ffs..hardly worth even commenting on...FC...comes on after Ramsay spends an hour telling everyone to get f**ked ffs !! lol :D
  20. Unless Im mistaken he will still actually be under contract through the trade period. Clubs will need to trade for him or he can nominate for the PSD
  21. For Fox sake...get on with it !!
  22. Yes....suddenly Schwab changes mind....all a bit of a coincidence all this.. . That rat smell just wont go away. I'd rather a crafty Fox than a "what am I thinking today " Schwab!!
  23. JJC Im totallywith you inthis matter. Point Kickins is something we have totally not mastered !! We are invariably so inept with this that we put undue pressue back on ourselves. Instead of starting a forward thrust ..we're still protecting the goal mouth. Who ever is in charge of this aspect...well either go learn better methods..or simply just GO !! <_<
  24. Am surprised...as with others. Until now I thought he ( Harvey ) was a bit of a head down , at it player who just got on with it. Apparently he 's really a snivveling little sh!t !! Totally unwarranted and unbecoming a player of his years and experience. Seems like Dun might have rattled his cage...lol
  25. Well as its Mr Jimma's favourite letter of the moment "R"... well lets continue the ruthlessness !! Jaded is right.. many others are right.. Col does not represent any value going forward. Hes had enough time.. he doesnt show the correct demeanor let alone attitude to be a better than he is player... Who wants "handy"..who want "Ok"...who wants mediocrity on a stick?? I dont I want good footy players who PLAY !! not pick up wage cheques under false disguises. Yes he does have talent.. must be still in his locker or garage at home as he rarely brings it with him to play..Ahh to 'play" does he really want to ?? You have to wonder at times where his head is at. Seen enough...next !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
