Yeah, in Parliament. Rl. Or heads of business. Maybe the heads of the Church? All the kings horses, and all the kings men ? Or could that possibly be, the collective minds of the common folk.?

... shiel do layzie !

thanks DJ. That's interesting. The players we don't get, that others do, pulls us back down. IMO, we ought be going after the best players out there first, and get it done. work out the details on the run. as NIKE says, "Just do it". The big clubs have done this for decades, and they stay up top.

This may have the effect of straightening our midfielders up, somewhat.

I like that he's a strong team player 'LT'. Good component'ry is a must, Re synergy in the forward team. Lets all hope the midfield components are all firing this weekend. ☺️

Lets send our best wishes out to Paul? Gaff... and the Gaff family. here's hoping for a full recovery for Mr Gaff.

Yes,,, but that should NOT stop us from talking to him. asap. Things can always be worked out, if the will is there with 2 parties, or more. Maybe this is why Carton are being touted about again recently,,, regarding a priority pick this year ! This priority pick issue that will NOT go away... in 2018_

Don't make excuses;,,, talk first, then worry about cost after, according to the chat.

Well, talk is, he is talking 'now' with the bummers. Why would we wait until next year to talk with him? If he's looking around now? Is this another, Dustin Martin 'no interview', type philosophy ? .

I can't believe that since D Shiel has been linked to the bummers, that people here are not discussing the possibility to get him to the D's.

D Shiel?

minor details mega.

ss&? d

maybe he's using a process of elimination ? ... reckons he has to get it right one year.

Currently there are only 6 players listed younger than Sam, on our list. At just 21 Yrs of age, I think this strapping 195cm Lad is doing just fine. https://www.footywire.com/afl/footy/pp-melbourne-demons--sam-weideman

Then Weide would probably play as the decoy forward, again. Weide is a good long kick, he can lead out wide if he wants. Getting separation on the defenders.

Hah. Yep,,, I see, my mistake. My apologies to you, 'od'.

He does need more opportunity with us. rubbish.

Sometimes I reckon the AFL listen and lean, on these things.

this is it in a nutshell. Played out of position, and our Mids are way too easily controlled.

I like your creative thinking JDM. Agree with most.

Hogan, TMc, Pedo, at this point. Weide to play deep, with Gawn resting there. What we don't have is collateral to trade/spend, for a Whitfield or the like. Hogan was the one for this.

This 'Cans', the trade idea, now.

bugga. Well that leaves us now in a position, forced on us, to play a better forward structure. # on the weekend... rot. Jesse has been hobbling for some time. notably against the Crows. . What are the doctors doing... how many stress fractures go un-diagnosed, until its plainly obvious to the TV cameras ?

Hogans best position is playing, high 40+ out from goal, and around the centreline... Taking marks in the wide part of the ground, and bringing the ball in to our deeper players... a true CHF position. Jesse is a natural, roaming wide to find the footy__ Which is why i wanted us to take him, some years back. TMc is better standing his ground to take strong overhead marks than Jesse. TMc has a better leap into a pack, from the rear or the side. Add Pedo, who is another like these two, more like Tmc. Weide is different, in that he plays more like a tall forward, Re packs, high marks, and as a follower__ Which is why I wanted him in the first place, some years back. I also wanted Grundy.? .
