When Goodwin becomes a favourite son, that will be the time he's traveling to softly... and will be time he goes. I like it he's not popular amongst some here, as we are poor judges... going by the past odd half century.

He needs a voice coach, to teach him to stop sounding like a whining poodle.

I agree Wls11. He has the ability to explode and can do it when in open space. When will he do it thru a tackle..... or out of deep within a pack? His kicking prowess has to start to deliver whilst under pressure not when he is the only player within 'cooee'. H needs to work way harder. To me he is still very much some sort of work in progress. I doubt he can make the bridge to a real breakout game, real breakout form,,, Until he gets his fitness levels much higher. I think he may be using this superhero title of 'explosive' & 'elite', as an excuse... that he doesn't need elite fitness to star in this AFL. I still think he is lazy in a sense, and resting on an inner perception of a brilliance. slighted by insecurity. IMO, He needs an honest reality check, to jog him into a true sense of his own game. He can be so mush more than he is now. # under-performing his potential abilities.

From outside the bullring, came the dark horse. SchoMo.

I think, Earl, the world is swinging wildly. Out of its past temperate balance. The last time the world was entering a tumultuous time-frame, I think was around the time of WW1, to near the end of Vietnam conflict. Similar time-frame of Mfc's last power era.

There's a lot of preciousness going around. No One wants Jesse gone. But we all want say a Josh Kelly, or a Whitfield, Shiel, or a Lachie Neale at this club. If one of these players becomes available to us, at the right price, then what ?

I've overestimated this Turnbull led Coalition government. I thought 'they' had more class than this. The Libs and the Nationals. They are now exposing what they really are, under their coats. They're turning 'cannibalistic'.

He's the same player, but he needs the ball put out in front of him, to run at. 2 first Rnd picks doesn't mean 2 kids. It might turn into a Josh Kelly, or a Whitfield and Shiel. Maybe a Lachie Neale +,,, at end of 2018? The point is, its worthy of a discussion. And no disrespect at all, to Jesse.

This is the obvious, M5. The injury occurred/was diagnosed, after the discussion started. It obviously should change things, and move the discussion to the back burner. Which then comes back next year, his contract year. Possible players of interest ? >>> https://www.footywire.com/afl/footy/to-fremantle-dockers https://www.footywire.com/afl/footy/to-west-coast-eagles Lachie Neale is a restricted free agent in 2019_ for just one.

One match at a time D_J. One match at a time. lets not lift our gaze beyond the job in front.

Exactly. 10 yrs ago I believed things were done at end of season. Not now, do I,,, am I so naive. I think Barassi's return, was at least, 1Yr in the making, ahead of it happening.

Lets see how it unfolds, the remainder of this week. I think dutton needs time to 'soften' his image first if he's smart;,,, if he's impatient, he could cook himself, before he begins. If its a hostile takeover, then it will be a mess. And they will not recover from it. Its a time to be team first, around the world. 2012 was the beginning, I think, of the 'end times'. or,,, 'the time of troubles'. or,,, the beginning of 'No time'... ... the end of 'the old' Era... prior to the new beginning, 'Aquarius', 'New Time', the 'Female aspect of God'... Right now we are in 'Murphy's Law'_ if you like. Everything is breaking down, the climate, the democracies, all old power bastions, the church's, .... power bases of the old, are breaking down. Is this the beginning, of the return of god? ( not the churches model ).... We are all indeed starting to spin backwards. And the 'ring of fire', also is hotting up. Has been accelerating more, since 2012. I wish we still had our car industry alive, within our shores. Thanks Tony 'Rabbot'. The things I've read, everything is turned on its head. But definately NOT the end of the world. Nostradamus has us going on for another few thousand years yet. As do the Mayans. But, 'the bible', as far as I can see, ends now.

I didn't see any of them, growing up in a Carlton dominated household (father & big sister)... the blues took precedent in replays and news items. But mum was a silent submissive demon. I found out later on. Little me was always outvoted. Barrassi leaving for Carton was salt in the wound. Then Smithy being sacked was like an Earthquake. I remained a 'D'_ I was too young to understand that we WON, the '64 Premiership. And don't remember seeing the replay, let alone the game. .

Yes but on the other hand... IF Petty had of taken to CHB for Melbourne, like a duck to a pond... he may have been a direct replacement for Lever. We wouldn't have broken stride, if it worked. It didn't this time; but for a one off match, was worth the risk... nothing ventured. Top 4_ not this year. Goodwin is doing a great job. He wanted Lever, was that wrong ? We payed too much, but we got the player. Who should he have played? Keilty? Smith ? TMc ? Hogan ? Pedo ? The Footy dept has steered us to the finals series, at the same time as we develop players under our main 22. .

Lower your Eyes Dirts. this week first mate. Foc-Us... this week. or we may Fuc-Up. .

And then another, following: which could be entitled dee-lighting in ones bathwater, of fugazi. Eyes fixed greedily on the Prize,,, and NOT on the job ahead.

here is another I just found by Weg. After, the '57 event... A very mild contented looking Demon.

What a fantastic Caricature of the Demon player. Can someone scan this Caricature in colour? edit: This CARICATURE is a well balanced and hungry Demon, Busy, with eyes looking ahead to the job at hand.

Such is loyalty... and a sort of responsibility... such, is Life.

. Turnbull & Dutton have reached agreement. IMO. Similar to Hawk & Keating. A handover, when the price is right. I worked it out this time last night. Dutton has No chance outside QLD... at the moment. Hence his resignation of his immigration portfolio. And going to the backbench,,, but yet is on the campaign trail, re-badging himself. Turnbull will resign his leadership of the Libs and the country, just before Xmas shutdown of the Parliament. With the intention of not running at the next Federal Election. Turnbull's time is up. He, Turnbull will handover cleanly, the leadership to Dutton at this time, in a clean changeover of power. Dutton has 3 months, to realign his public image.

absolutely, deeply.
