  1. I just watched it again on the back of your post and I believe you are 100% correct in your thoughts... Ablett's intentions are obvious!
  2. Ooops.... I thought this was a thread that was game related... My bad...
  3. It's not the unemployment figure that shocks me.... It's the fact there are actually still 14 teeth remaining!
  4. *STRONG RUMOUR* There will be more teeth, on average, in the mouths of Melbourne supporters today!
  5. Hopefully a multiple premiership player from the Melbourne Football Club
  6. His ability to get his hands free and release a handball at such speed (and often crazy angles) is phenomenal... And as you pointed out, it is more often than not a handball from above his head! At this early stage of his AFL career, he has me hardening quicker than a bag of rapid set every time he goes near the ball
  7. Well, I am disappointed to say the least... I thought, after reading the topic, that this thread was actually started by the umpire's from today's match
  8. Perfect young & talented list for Mark Neeld to fine tune
  9. I would actually bring ANB in to replace Vince if he does indeed cop a week... I think Brayshaw can have another run around with Casey and come in cherry ripe for Richmond alongside his good mate Petracca... Garlett in for AVB as long as his ankle is fine.
  10. Learn from it and move on.... That is what champions do
  11. I would actually keep Frost and have him run around pi$$ing Grundy off all day!
  12. I'm having a crack at this.... N.Jones - well held early Vince - has pointy elbows Hogan - looked much happier Salem - some good signs Watts - played with passion Viney - captain in waiting Lumumba - gives me goosebumps Gawn - king of rucks Tyson - looked heaps better Oliver - makes me hard Dunn - welcome back son Stretch - quick but indecisive Kent - goals redeemed errors Frost - not sure really McDonald - strong down back Bugg - got some cnut Kennedy - quiet at times vandenBerg - lacking some polish Jetta - rebounded really well Wagner - another week please Harmes - loves a tackle M.Jones - not the worst
  13. Out: Jeremy Howe's lights In: Whoever hits the hardest
  14. True... Although, there is apparently a club out there that are always a happy team and ride each other with grins (or something like that)
  15. Part of me hopes that some players do read here.... If only so they can see how insanely frustrating and painful this life sentence can be But as Wiseblood said, if they let what people on here type get in their head, then they may need to look at a different career path...
  16. I commend you on your post as I too thoroughly enjoyed today's performance... Chalk and cheese the past 2 weeks, for sure! I am interested in how you believe the "hurtful" comments by some misguided inter web trolls could play a role in future list decisions? Surely the days of Cameron Schwab using Demonland as a recruiting almanac are over!?!?! "Although I am watching everything"
  17. I tend to agree that we will not be better without him, but I won't be too upset as I think we will convincingly beat the filth next week... Vince is great and I only question his method of moving the ball forward as it has irked me so far this year. I have found myself struggling with crazy thoughts so far this season.... Most notable being the voice in my head telling me we have the wrong guy as captain... I need a lie down as the roller coaster ride we have endured thus far is clearly causing me some head trauma!
  18. Can we just close this thread already? Some of the posts here are the most confusing things I have read in a long time!
  19. I think 1 week for stupidity alone... Am i the only one thinking that Bernie has had a pretty average start to the season? Don't get me wrong... I have a man crush on Bernie, but so many times today I saw him just hack the ball forward on a 90deg angle without even raising his eyes... I understand the whole "move it forward quickly" mentality, but this action more often than not ends up with the opposition defenders marking uncontested and beginning a foray forward... Was actually really annoying me today... I think if he does get a week, then a part of me will be looking forward to seeing the team dynamic without him...
  20. THIS is the biggest problem we have...
  21. After a week of soul searching I have just read Sledgy's article and I agree 100% with what he has put together. I am angrier than I have ever been at the club and expect the next 3 weeks to change that mindset... But that can only happen with the playing group actually making a stand and showing the world that they "give a fkuc" I have even been as low this week, as to start to wonder if Jones is the right captain?!?! Last week's game was a bloody disgrace and better be the LAST time I cry tears of heartbreak caused by the club I love!
  22. I'm bloody excited to be jumping in the Navara with my 7 year old little Demon for a road trip on Anzac Weekend! I have been hoping beyond hope that we either see Petracca or Trengove play against the Tigers. My lad has never been to the home of football.... OUR home of football... and I am counting the sleeps like a kid waiting for Christmas!
  23. Oh the memories....
