  1. Maybe it isn't. A number of teams over the journey ( Bomber , Robinson et al ) have mysteriously "re-invented" themselves over a summer.We arent talking a few kg of mass or tone...and certainly no one in these cases dropping weight. There's a real world out there Saty... you're most welcome to join it.
  2. They most certainly do. We are though i would have thought able to discuss whats in the public domain without infringement ?
  3. I was getting excited about Spargo...that ruins it lol
  4. Ive often wondered why coachs seem so eager to rotate in pairs. I would have thought an astute fox might make use of an imbalance of players if only there for 30-40 secs.
  5. Its a thought. Mine was if you have less on the bench then rotations would/ should decrease in tow. I can't see the game returned to none. Make it less appealing ( to rotate )by denying so many fresh legs
  6. A work in progress. Il happily cede he is now stepping up into his role/ability. He's certainly had some cwap games but he was most ablely accompanied by more than a handful. He still makes some glaring mistakes. Tbh that's expected. Hopefully each one is a lesson.To suppose these dont occur if either arrogance of bias or ignorance of fact. I don't think anyone is particularly trying to assassinate Oscar but simply , in some instances, highlighting or pointing it out...i.e..the errors. Sometimes he'll just get beaten by a more adept player...or play. Stuff happens.
  7. Its been known for a few Dee wingmen to kick a few
  8. He hasn't lost it...money. he's got swags. That is exactly the concern of the police. $20k bond... peanuts...
  9. Yes...but wouldn't stay hidden for very long !! ???
  10. Oh i have no doubts...talks in quiet places...the shaking of hands in a specific manner ...the greasing of palms and reminders of favours owed ....will all come to pass. A problem though is it's now all out in the public domain. It's got legs. Going to be hard to sweep this under the grass
  11. Last time i looked the AFL doesnt run the courts. This is beyond the AFL...this is the real world !!
  12. Most likely concurrent if found guilty. 15 years if thats the prize,7-1/2 on behaving oneself. If any of this was to teanspire that's one mighty fall from Babalon. He'd have some prior acquaintances to pass time with possibly ? Fascinating to see how this pans out.
  13. Im just curious what Spargo Fritsch and Jeffy might do in a game. Maybe either Bayley or Jeffy plays higher on a wing All have goal sense...all can use the ball. Garletts skills are sublime when he's on. Maybe he just needs a nudge out of his malaise
  14. Bill was right. It's actually impossible in many respects TO separate Thompson from many and nefarious goings on at Essendon and Geelong. None of this happened in isolation. What goes around comes around. Life's a bltch sometimes.
  15. Fine ? Bomber's charged with Trafficking...not possesion. He could go away for a holiday
  16. There are too many rules. The game's being over managed. Go back to 2 field umps. Get rid of the'review'. Scrap the deliberate rule. Unlimited rotarions...but only 2 on bench . 2 Emergencies can only be used to replace a player hurt and removed from field. You want to tire out players running off and on..up to you. Holding the ball is holding the ball..prior is irrelevant. If you want to kick the ball through your opponent's posts...go for it. Is likely to bring you unstuck. Keep it Simple
  17. Think of a number between 1 and 10 Then subtract it from itself
  18. Providing he's not actually...injured.
  19. Geelong got away with a great deal...all the whiles cradling Silverware !!
  20. Only ever got to see Barass play as a Blue or Vic rep. Two very different styles. Ron in effect would set out to impose himself on the game..Tulip just did. Ron purposely placed himself in the thick of it....the 'thick' just gravitated to Robbie..because it had to...or he'd open up an opposition quicker than Lechter. One outwardly very confident..the other im sure had as much belief but in a different fashion. Barass collected more silverware but its arguable he was better supported throughout his career by teams with many champions. Robbie....not as much support ? Ron the more accomplished of the two I dont think there's an argument there. Gee..a hard ask to rank them ? If i can just say Robbie Flower has always been my most favourite of Melbourne players. He epitomized to me what a true champion is. Ive seen a lot of football over many decades now. Tulip sits aloft in rare air. Im not sure who's the best Footballer, but to me Robert Flower is/was the best Demon I've ever had the privilege to see...indeed meet. He was as mild mannered as Clark Kent...but a Superman in Red and Blue. ( Funny really...Superman does wear Red and Blue? ) If only one....Tulip. A very good a nigh impossible question
  21. Some might say the Karma bus simply picked up a passenger.
  22. @binmanhe stuffed up. He didn't stuff up all game, in fact i thought he was ok. But letting your man be goalside is naughty naughty footy 101
