Oddly enough i'm encouraged by Trengoves progress. Whether he makes it back entirely or not they seem to have done some good work on his behalf. Pertracca's rehabilitation seems to be going well. This to me indicates they (club) understands the injuries and recovery chances. Weideman's prognosis must be quite good to draft him with all this in mind.

dunno...am sure he'd forgive you

Red doesn't get out as much as he used to...

I was all for Parish....he might become anything...who knows.. Oliver WILL become a very good player...AM happy enough.

thanks A of B , a good watch hell he's got a longer run in that Lillee !!

This comment from Roos sums up the NEW Melbourne being built : “There are some non-negotiables now for kids coming in. You give yourself a better chance if you are a competitor,’’ he said. A team full of competitors WILL compete.. How did we not see this over the years

not alone

even now

Vince will have taken him out by then

so much is between the ears isn't it !!

lol...love the lateral thinking there edit then again...maybe the AFL isnt that big on OH & S

Theyll be a nightmare to match up on.. .....happy days !!

Think these guys had a hand in it

you just ruined it Nut !! lol Luckily Brick already has meat and his hips are fine I believe edit..VFL > SANFL also

reckon we will...2 at least

Once this kid loses a bit of the puppy...and whacks a bit more solid on him....he'll be scary out there........how goods that !!

exactly....he leapfrogged over many just because of this..

I'll be only 100% convinced when he takes the field in a continuous fashion. The talent /ability is there in spades....its just that niggle.... I dont like niggles in footy players. But he's here, he's ours ( and not theirs..lol ) so go Weed...Go Dees

Something many dont know is that despite there being a great rivalry between Melbourne and Collingwood ( as there ought to be ) there was back in that era a great respect for each other. Funny you mention those two..first two pairs of boots were Ron Barrasi's...and after Weideman White diamonds....... How could I have known !! lol

Something some may like to ponder. Some has been made of Clayton "Brick" Oliver's non appearance at the U18's.. Given he got to play VFL and handled himself very capable I really couldn't care. Im always wary kiddy ball has some restrictions about how the game is played.. the VFL is more like the real footy they are coming to. Often we see some talented kids fall over once they step up. Oliver already knows what thi is about in a way. That has to be good and think its one of the reasons he was drafted. He CAN play...not he 'might' be able to.

How about "BRICK"...he's going to hit the opposition like a ton of them a big red-brick !!

NormallyI wouldnt think so either... we probably hadnt expected Brayshaw to burst onto scene and own his place either...but he did I would think all things equal Weed would be coming into prominence in 17 save for two things possibly... We do need someone else down the front who can MARK...and Sam has put it out there he want to play1st's next season. So who knows.. If he gets fitness sorted.. we might see him...we might

lol... Love the passion, and why not enjoy. Practicing my siphoning currently. Just the one posting would have sufficed btw I branded Weideman as Suss1 because he obviously comes aboard with a few questions about his niggling injuries. We've had a bad run ( npi ) with players coming into the club only to waylayed early. He obviously has prodigious talent and I certainly hope this translates into a long and rewarding career ( for all concerned ) I wish him well and success. I wish us that success. Cant wait for next years QB game

A delicious irony.

Glad we got an Oliver ..eventually Looks the goods. Give him the time to get up to speed
