  1. Daniher won't be at the MFC next year, or any other AFL club. My bet is 2009 he will be somewhere else, around the same time we will win the flag....seriously.
  2. West Coast has been the standout for 3 seasons (including this one) without a standout foward who kicks bags. Davey, Green, Slvia, Brock, Johnstone, Robbo, Dunn, all of these players can kick goals, both on the run and from set-shot.
  3. No doubt the doggies would have scored a few less goals had Whelan and Rivers been playing. Bruce would have been freed up and played in the centre. Brock in the centre and Robbo playing foward. Wow. And we only lost by 6 points...
  4. That was the part. That goal there. I've gotten the timeline wrong, but you see Davey just move off too late. The ball was kicked straight too him, and he was just standing there. A lapse in concentration caused the turn-over and the goal.
  5. It was just after our last goal. We were up by 1 point. The ball gets thrown onto the boot of a Melbourne player in the centre (think it was Macca) and heads towards centre-half foward. Davey was stand flat-footed and was staring towards the bench, and by the time he realised the ball was coming, his opponent had moved off, grabbed the ball, booted it foward, Jones gave away the free kick, and they kicked the last goal of the game for the win. Now, he was one of, if not the, best player for Melbourne today. Myself and all 4 of my mates saw it and started cursing ourselves. Did anyone else? It happened very quickly, but for that split second Davey had lost concentration and it cost us, because the Doggies player got the ball without contest. Davey was literally standing still when he realised it was coming foward. It looked really bad. But I hate to say because he was sensational today. But that lapse in concentration may have cost us... EDIT: Have a look at the reply. Should be on soon.
  6. Sylvia is a finese type player. He is a hardnut, but not of the calibre of say Brock or Jones. He just looks so good when he has the ball and delivers it or is having a shot for goal. Easily his best AFL game today. He stood up and played like a true foward.
  7. I actually thought Godders was off West in the last, and that is probably where he got most of the ball. Up to half way through the third, he only had 10 or so possies.
  8. QFT Yze is Muslim, but the fact that they are blowing it up that he is a devout Muslim is just stupid. I mean, first Irish player fair enough, or first player from South Africe or Sudan or whatever, but why Muslim? Who cares. As long as the kid plays football. They are making it out like being Muslim and playing AFL is an amazing achievement...like as if it's nothing that could have ever been excepted. Had he debuted 10 years ago, no one would even know who he was.
  9. Godfrey probably has one of the better football brains at the club. He knows how to get into position, when to jump on the ball and when not too, and he can hit a leading foward if he needs too. He's an ugly football (literally, as well), but he just always brings it. Love the guy.
  10. who said anything about him being our best player? I think he is far from it. He gets the possies, yeah, but I think that he has probably "won" a game for us maybe 1 or 2 times in his entire career. He just does nothing, as a leader should, when we are down. Yeah, he gets 25-30 possies, but how many of those are contested possestions, or handballs to a teammate running clear 40 metres out from goal, or a direct pass into our 50 to a leading foward???? Not many.
  11. to anyone who thinks Bruce even has a remotely good kick, honestly, watch some games. The guy must drop the ball crooked on his foot or something. Bruce + Miller + 1st rd pick for Judd lol serious...
  12. I wonder what the chances of getting Blight in are....or even Brett Lovett???
  13. he just admitted, in other words, that he won't be there next year...
  14. That's 0-5 at a ground we were pretty much unbeatable at in the past 3 years. What a year...
  15. Personally I can't see either of them coming up. Probably for the Eagles; great week to all come back...
  16. yeah, generally i thought the umps were ok. they really let the game play on. i was actially thinking that about 10 minutes into the last, because there were a few frees either way that should have been paid based on the first 5 weeks of the season. but to pay that against Neitz. Gee. I watched the reply a few times and in slow-motion, yeah it was a push in the back, but come on. You'd paid that 1/100. It was there, but so are about 100 unpaid holding the man
  17. that's cool dude, but a majority of the ones that don't show up don't work sundays. I mean, we're struggling AND everyone works on a Sunday...come on!
  18. the site is practically unloading if your on dial-up. When I go to my cousins place at Torquey, which is often, he has dial-up and you're waiting about 10 minutes for it to load fully. Even on dial-up, thats shocking.
  19. yeah, let's blame the umpires, and not the amount of errors we had, or our average foot skills, or inability to kick goals when the oppurtunity arose, or the fact that we had 9 goals and 17 behinds, or the fact that Tredrea was clearly below his best... yeah, let's blame the umpires.
  20. the player we love to hate? I'd say his the player we hate to love. If only half our team played with the heart he does.
  21. i have no doubt that had we started off the way we should of (considering our fixture, we probably could have started 5-0) we would have 30,000+. ps. deanox, great movie
  22. I seriously think Richmond will beat Geelong....I would love to see it, because if they do, bye bye Mark Thompson. Honestly, I can't believe that after one massive win against Carlton, everyone was saying how "inform" they were, even after a round 1 disgrace against the doggies. then they beat us, and lose to the hawks and roos. Thompsons is gone anyway. They won't make much of a huff this year, even if they do win this week.
