Daniel Cross is exactly the type of player or reason FA was brought in. Ryan O'Keefe as well. Unfortunately you can't restrict it to these types. The big problem is that the AFL know in a court of law the restraint of trade argument would win every day of the week so their hands really are tied.

Hardly an obsession but lots of teams have these types. Its called versatility. And when things arent going according to plan you can move your team around - there's a novelty Poita.

Role player. Exactly what Roos likes. Oh and he;s a swingman as well...

No he's not. He's advertising to the world that we will trade anyone for the right price. If you want draft picks, Melbourne is the place to come. If you want players we'll talk. He has to we need wholesale changes and trading depends on other clubs. We can't trade with ourselves.

At the end of 2006, Essendon sought special consideration from the AFL to place Ramanauskas on a mature-aged rookie list for the 2007 season. In July 2007, Ramanauskas was elevated to the senior list and played his first AFL match in two years. Who was their CEO at the time?? Peter Jackson.. Go Mitch

Just forgotten until I read it again this morning how arrogant this club is. Who the fark charters a DC3 to fly to Wangaratta?? Talk about out of touch. This club was driven by massive egos. Still is.

22 of those and we'd beOK

And I hope he fails big time. Like Scully. NOt because I am bitter but because I want FAs to stop thinking the grass is greener. And how [censored] ironic that one of the best teams of the last decade will have two of Melbourne's key defenders. If anyone doubts we need midfielders that alone should convince you.

Rivers has been talking to him all year.... Just sayin...

I look fwd to the day when I don't look fwd to the end of the season and the off season.

I rate TG

Wow that is a caning. I mean how farked are we if players at Casey can't be arsed to put in. We really need to rethink this relationship. I mean even the dogs have their own stand alone team now.....

LOL two turnovers and one out on the full in the first 1:42 .... He'd fit in beautifully.

DOn't want him anywhere near our club. Which bit of tainted do ppl not understand? He is not a quality person.

Who has ever suggested he was like Tony Lockett?

he is training by himself

They are certainly relentless. Amazing that they continue to pour shiite over everybody that they think has wronged them and then on the other hand want to keep open the option of negotiating a lesser penalty for being co-operative. They can't see the conflict or absurdity of their position: we dont know what the players took we know the players took nothing illegal we sacked Dean Robinson for overseeing an illegal regime we ran a pharmacological experiment it was Demtrious fault that we self reported we never should have self reported we didn't self report I hope they get hit with a massive sledgehammer. They deserve it.

We need to delist 15 IMO. Someone correct me but the last two years we delisted 10 and 12 I think. Its not impossible to delist or trade 15 but there is no doubt a law of diminishing returns.

Stephen Powell was an ordinary kick but very effective. I am sure there are others..

I'm not sure where to find the goals scored from turnovers but I would be surprised if we were not last by a very long way. We don't seem to have trouble getting the ball. Since Roos has come on board he has fixed this. I think on the weekend WCE scored 9 goals from TOs. We desperately need players that can deliver the ball effectively to a team mate in a better position. That's why signing DT leaves me cold.

It is 69% this year. Its no myth. If your suggesting it is above 85% over his career you are dreaming. Keep going yourself.

I hope het gets $41.2m

They were duped but signed off on an unprecedented injection regime across the road at a clinic away from the club and with the club doctor on record as saying he had no idea what was going on... Yeah, let em off. Fair enough. Not their fault. If that gets through then WADA will have a huge problem around the world with the precedent being set.

I don't thnk hated is the right word. We are going nowhere with DT in the side. Has a crack for sure but his skills and decision making are deplorable. We will miss the chance to improve the team by re-signing him The fact he was 3rd in the Bluey is an indictment on the whole team from 2013 and somewhat irrelevant. The other two I understand why thy have been kept. We kept Bail with atrocious disposal. Grimes has atrocious disposal. Ditto McDonald. Half our bleeding team can't kick yet we keep DT. Makes no sense to me.

Sorry Jack I disagree. You can't have a system where Ess goes to court, loses and then says to the AFL Ok lets do a deal where we admit things and you give us a 3m ban over summer so we don't miss any games. Flies in the face of any common sense and people would be justifiably outraged. Particularly other athletes from other codes.
