  1. Maybe the offer is below what he thinks he is worth and he is trying to play a better 2nd half of the year to boost his contract offer... That might make sense...
  2. You know you have lost the argument when you use DE stats ha ha
  3. Casey is in the second fastest growing region in the country. On a broader level we need to build our supporter base. Id be pretty sure that's one of the reasons we are out there. Footy is pretty important but we can't ignore the bigger picture longer term...
  4. Spencer looked pretty good today against the Pies.
  5. He played poorly but you cant accuse him of not trying. That's really poor of you.
  6. Wow. I think you must have failed english. Healy said something, you inferred from that. ANd then you have audacity to accuse others of beng breathtakingly arrogant....? Stop being a goose mate.
  7. 90% of our populatiopn live withink 100kms of the coast. Its a total waste spending $70bn for 'remote surgery' whatever that is. Be cheaper to charter lear jets for them.
  8. Grimes to the fwd line for mine.....Kent has little defensive pressure and Grimesey will provide it in spades...
  9. Respectfully disagree. Building it in the first place was ridiculous. Paying Telstra $12bn to shut down the copper network was ridiculous. We waste money like nobody else. Could have built 35 new hospitals.
  10. Exactly. When 20yo's get asked if they want the fastest internet they all say yes. But no-one wants to pay up for it. It's not free and in fact is ridiculously expensive. Need to get a return on the $70b that it is costing us. It is the biggest white elephant this country has ever built - except of course for Canberra.
  11. Replace Kent. Defensive pressure Solid body. Experience.
  12. Would love for that to be brought up in the post match presser. "We knew ths was the GF game and the would get themselves up for it despite their season being shot." Ha ha that would be great!
  13. Do you know how many people have actually signed up for the highest internet speeds using the NBN and where it is available? The answer is less than 5. $70bn for what exactly? So the argument about having the fastest internet speeds is simply a croc. I can stream movies and sport without NBN quite readily on 6Mbps.
  14. Ballantyne, Thomas, Harvey, Goddard, Shuey, Goodes, Selwood, Puopolo and anyone else who stages for free kicks.
  15. He will have trouble when EFC plays FREO in the battle for the #1 draft pick. Total audience, 6.
  16. Maybe he deals with Pickering and is waiting for the legal case to settle. You can't make assumptions about his management. That is simply overreach.
  17. The Prince played his best 2 games for the club earlier this year. I think he has been missed a lot. Particulalrly when we have such an inexperienced back line.
  18. So how do the EFC get Friday night and Saturday night games? All those here that have rabbited on in the past about 'we have to perform better to get good games on TV and good fixtures against big clubs' now have it writ large that the fixture and TV rights are a cartel. It's like the MRP though. COmplaining just gives you a headache and doesn't achieve anything.
  19. I think he is right on the first bolded point. There weren't players lining up to come. And if it was for money, so be it. We would otherwise have paid it to some of the players that are no longer with us..... As for the second bolded point, its your opinion; I don't agree with it but get why hold it.
  20. Or even lose.....
  21. I'd wager the vast majority on here think you are a complete fool.
  22. PLease. The weekend was not a game for marking fwds. Much better and easier for defenders. As for bad games, Ask the Hawk fans what he was like in his first year. He was terrible. Your recollection isn't very good.
  23. OD we have been over this ground before. You should stop bleating about the money. We had to pay it to someone. Who else would you have paid it to? Lucas Cook? We had to pay to get someone with a big body to the club. I am not a big Dawes fan but he has provided strong contests when he has played and he has lifted training standards etc etc, Sure he has been injured a lot but he plays his heart out every time he plays and if others did the same we would be a much better club. Today is different. We have players wanting to come to Melbourne to play for the club. In the dark days we didn't.
  24. One goal was a gimee that Hogan stuffed up
