if the LTI is true then absolutely it makes sense to promote valenti. Re Competition I think this answers your first question.

sidebottom is the go for gumbleton

Any more info?

you've used your 3 questions poorly :D , no more answers for now!

robbo said on saturday that he has told "them" that he was right to play last week (v bris), so I guess no.

Not grimes but i am led to believe it (the LTI) is correct. Let me say it is a player that hasn't played a game yet in 09. thats all i will say for now!

Just got this mornings mail, Valenti is likely to be promoted to the snr list due to a LTI! Lets see what happens.

i have both! might wait and see. BUGGER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This alone adds a lot of interest to the game, just about makes the long trek worth it to see LJ for the 1st time! Shame about grimes

Jarka, pls don't put the words great ambassader and michael long in the same sentance. Mongrel is closer!

Too late HT, the #1 ticket went long ago! The only thing that worries me is the old "Bringing the game into disrepute". His nickname is psyco for a reason

Relocate them to tassie! No one would care?

D.Schwarz and D.Nietz both spent time at CHB as well. Correct me if I am wrong (I am talking about 18yrs of age for both) but I think Schwarz started as a CHB before being moved forward 1-2 yrs later & Neitz started as a CHF, then went back for several years and then went deep forward. Things can change, its a matter of where they are of most value.

Frawley and Garland can both play small as well. That leave rivers, martin and warnock. Being nth are likely to be tallish up forward there should be room for all. Out of the the 3 KPB warnock or rivers would miss ATM. Martins Preseason form has been great. Rivers is underdone so maybe he could be the unlucky one if balance is an issue. i have always been one for playing the best 22 regardless of "balance". If they are good enough there will be a spot somewhere (forward) I would suspect.

exciting stuff with any luck will be putting pressure on some of the forwards very soon!

Stkilda had some sort of day as well i saw a quick highlight of on the news. I would say we had 10 to 20 times more people for our media shots and theirs looked empty. Well done to all for marketing, venue etc! 1000 memberships in a day is great. I wonder how many new members for the weekend in total as nearly all the crowd at casey was MFC.

Injuries/Age. If you can pick the time to off load a young player that is about to be rested for several weeks or a player who gets injured and then say Watts starts playing you may gain 100k from the other bloke and you can upgrade another established player that is not performing to a star that is. if you can pick a couple of rookie's that avg's close to 100pts/game and play 20+ games your set!

If we were only to win one game this year I know who it would be. It would not be the filth but Carltank from Vi$y. I want judd, warnock &CJ's head rubbed into the centre square that day!

you have all missed one as well. Pettard is in the backline and cheep. Very good value for mine as he will play a lot wing/HF and looks the goods this year if he stays fit. IMHO pettard/grimes is better value and should be a better net return then the garland/warnok pair purely from being spoilers v midfielders!

I thought pettard was excellent on sat as a forward until he went off. Very close to BOG at that time. he could well fill in the hole until a couple of the others are ready.

Brock was in a similar position last year and looks like he has turned it around. Different circumstances but the process and outcome was similar. Lets not forget that he was being alined by many as the next MFC captain not that long ago (myself included) Lets cross our fingers. Lets face it the MFC need Col to take this the right way and respond.

Bingo, not even 1 week into the season and the trade him talk is starting. WHAT RUBBISH The facts, - His trade value before this incident was close to zero, - Post incident this has not changed much (half of zero is still zero). - To be trade potential he needs to have a really solid year (now both on and off field). If he does this he is probably more value to us. lets see where he is at in rnd 20+ before jumping the guns!

There is another thread going http://forums.demonland.com/index.php?showtopic=13796 It has been suggested that Jamar has been put on the LTI due to foot related stress fractures. If this is true it makes sat game a little more interesting

No PJ? Leaving messen and spencer to fight it out for rd 1! (if the LTI rumors are true)

nothing better then a bloke who wares his heart on his sleave. A few others could learn a lot from him!
