  1. Sign up Hoges first, then worry about bringing in outside talent. But for sure, Lobb would help out Gawn big time and we'd no longer need to drag along the dead weights in Spencer and King (Max).
  2. Back both of them, you can't lose (other than a draw)
  3. Humidity must be getting to him up there!
  4. Wouldn't mind trying to bring in WHE if the price was right (2nd rounder +?), he could bunk with JKH and be the hyphen brother's. His pace and run definitely suits our needs, we have our engine room developing nicely, now we just need some outside run and class. He is also capable up forward too. We do have the likes of Kent, Kennedy, Harmes even Garlett, who can play up the ground, but they are more small forwards/rotating mids, whereas WHE is a mid/rotating forward. ***As for the Morton comparisons, they are worthy, but even Morton would do better in our team now, compared to when we were abhorrently bad and he was with us (save 2010 & 2011)
  5. Ross Lyon is a list destroyer. He plays his favourites and gets the best out of them, to the detriment of the other listed players' generally not in the starting 22. He did it at the Saints, he is now doing it at the Dockers.
  6. probably the greatest team not to win a flag. The bloke is as arrogant and smug as anyone i have ever met.
  7. Wow, only 15 times since 1991 have we had a player selected as an AA. 25 years with with approx 550 positions up for grabs, we have netted 15 of them (2.72%). That just makes me sad.
  8. His kicking is absolutely lethal and it sticks out like a sore thumb (given the disposal of our other backmen). However, Salem has failed to show enough hunger and desperation for the ball for mine. He is valuable to our side no doubt, but he is not indispensable for the right offer.
  9. I'd rather Marchbank to go along with HE, than Tomlinson.
  10. They need one, they shouldn't get it but they will. They kicked up a huge stink about us applying for one a few years back, so i hope we do the same. One pick ain't going to do anything for that club. They are in a worse state off-field than we ever were. Loved how Leppitch is having a sook about how they get nothing from the AFL (an academy and priority access comes to mind, Leppa) yet this club only 12 years ago played in their 4th consecutive GF. Short memories with that club up there. Their incompetence off-field is unbelievable (though their CEO has very little idea of running a football club imo), and their list manager is a complete dill (3-years @ $1.2m for a glorified outside runner, wow).
  11. if Wagner is upgraded, then we only need 2 'live' picks
  12. If that was the last game i was ever to see, i would go a proud and happy man.
  13. This kid has a serious hard-on for touching the footy.
  14. Off the Rookie List, i'd de-list Michie (maybe get him to sign up with the Scorps, as he does excel at VFL level) Off the main list (whether or not they are contracted or not) those first to make way would be (in no particular order): Dawes, Lumumba, Dunn, Newton, Garland, Grimes, M. Jones and Terlich. There is still many on the list who need to go, if we are to continue to improve. Almost a quarter of the list is still what i would deem as not up to AFL standard. Prior to Roos, it would've been close to only a quarter that was, so Roosy's tenure has seen an improvement to 50% of our overall list. Quite a dramatic improvement in the space of only 3 years.
  15. Wrong Wise, he'll be the big KPD we bring in to help McDonald out next year!
  16. He could, but he won't. Viney is the clearly the next captain of the MFC.
  17. will truly start to believe that we are going places from 2017 onwards! (also beating a team we are supposed to beat [Blues] will help reinforce that belief)
  18. Good get McQueen, should've doubled up to get real value!
  19. If i was a Dorks supporter, i couldn't really care less if that was the case. Played in 5 GF's in the past 8 years (4 in 4) and have won 3 in a row. As much as i hate their arrogance, their recent success has given them reason to be. I for one am [censored] envious. When will it be our turn?
  20. Tyson with the knock-out blow. Poetic.
  21. Just one more, knock em into the canvass, keep swinging as they're going down.
  22. Dawks will be pushing hard to try and answer and assert their dominance. A good chance to inflict more pain on the counter
