he is indeed. but havent noticed him whinge to tell the truth...when he was ( playing ) Bodes well...proof not delivered yet I agree

wont be attending. Look forward to any insight and/or snippets from anyone going who cares to share

You base everything on what you know. Got news..one you dont know everything. Two. Some people know what you don't. So sometimes discussion might actually be based on something you're not privy to. Lots of little birdies fly around.

My only real question. Is he really THAT good that he gets 1.1? That might not gel with what others get. I think Gaff is good...but that good ?? Not sure.

I think all parties just being polite yet guarded. He'd probably go all right at a few other clubs where the line is shorter. I don't particularly mind Dom and think he's often misjudged as to the ability to play a role. That said if others are being sought for running roles Dom's out in the cold. Just what is I guess.

Though I think I understand what's behind the notion of interstaters signing shorter paper there really is no justification for such. It's professional footy...sign here..play. that's all.

Nah. ETD seems capable of stringing words together. Never Stuie's strong point

Hogan going frees up cap without doubt. We don't need him gone as I'm sure the club would gladly be chuffed were he to stay. I suspect this is no overnight occurrence and as such there are plans/options to use that money on others. The club will happily pursue what's required to have all its plans fulfilled. There's no real prize for having spare change at the end of the Circus.

My god... who'd want to get off the Blues bus ???

There's a truck load of Cold Pies and a pile of used dentures !! does that get much ??

the wiggle room...so to speak for GC is that it is very likely that our trading with them will involve at least 2 players. This opens up the box as it were. We're now dealing with a"'package deal".. Melbourne offers X...we get Y. If it was/had been just about one player then GC has very little room to move ( in its own mind as far as delivering to the masses ). Fortunately this way it would appear both parties can come away smiling...Good for us Go Dees

thats just marking the mark on the turf. Gamesmanship. Clubs often say one thing for their members and public to swallow... meanwhile the FD get busy in the real world. Translation...May is gone..we know it...cant just give him away.

luck had nothing to do with it... not nearly so much as listening and observing

personally Im happy enough to see we've arrived at discussing sensibly and civilly about a situation and how the various outcomes sit for Melbourne. Im really only concerned about Melbourne

maybe because some were looking over there >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> and some <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< Maybe some just dont believe a bloody word spoken by clubs or players... Id be one of those btw

There's another possibility. And a perfectly understandable one. He never really got the chance to wholly immerse his inner self into the role. So much happening around him . Without doubt it's been hard. That's possibly the 'why' . The result is, for mine , he didn't seem as much into it as some others. I actually think a fresh start will do him well. Good luck to the lad. Go Dees

Any fast food franchises changed hands lately ? ??

I would think because we didn't attend the Dodoro school of "pizzing everyone off" that we are/should be well placed to deal with GC etc with whatever we exchange for Jesse.

Someone else making him an offer he can't refuse ? Those Lygon st good guys would know how.

You're such a wag vagg

We can only hope . Fingers crossed.

So it's ok to talk about a Hogan trade. Welcome to the real world everyone. Took some of you long enough. Go Dees

Not there yet lol

its been mooted , not without reason that if he were staying...two simple words would suffice: "I'm staying!!" crickets !!!!!!!!!!!
