  1. That's exactly what we need haha. Our list management team calling Freo, drunk.
  2. Wow. But only two years ago, Hawthorn were touting Burton as one of their star young leaders.
  3. The new Commodore is made by Opel and looks like a classy Euro car, basically because it is. Was going to get an Audi but the new model looks and offers more. So don't talk down to Commodores. ?
  4. I'd take Thursday night games but with a preference for Friday nights. Thursday is still terrific prime time exposure for sponsors and an opportunity to get a big crowd into an earlier game. If we get two or three of these Thursday night games and also play Anzac Day Eve, QBD and a Round 1 blockbuster against say Collingwood and throw in one or two Friday nights, we're a massive chance to break our attendance record again.
  5. With Beams allegedly requesting a trade back to Collingwood for family reasons (is it just me or is that a weak cop out - he used it to get out in the first place which is fine but now he's using it to get back?), Collingwood's midfield would be bloody good, but very old. They'd have that small window to win a flag, which I suspect they're well aware of with their aging list, but there's a bit of Geelong about them forming. Pendles, Sidebottom and Beams are all near the ends of their career. If they don't win it next year, I reckon they might have missed their chance with their current list.
  6. That's exactly what I'd previously read and so watched him this year and found he turned it over. It may well be that thing where you focus on a certain trait and then highlight any mistake made. Who knows.
  7. Tom Morris it was - http://www.melbournefc.com.au/video/2018-03-15/inside-melbourne-episode-1 Upon further Googling, Morris ran St Kilda's social channels in 2015. He now works for Croc Media and Fox Footy.
  8. Good get, mate. Reckon we'll still get our man here though. I'm sure our FD have an alternative for how we go about getting the May trade done without the Hogan picks.
  9. He could well turn into a good player. He has some nice attributes: reads the ball well, is calm under pressure and good mobility for his size. But he's a bit too prone to turn it over by foot for me. Not really any better than Oscar at this stage. Has more mobility than Oscar, but Oscar would have him by foot.
  10. Yep, very good pedigree. Interesting to read this earlier. He's never quite seemed at the level for mine, but still only 21, so I'd back the FD in here. If true, we clearly think he could provide good competition for ANB, Spargo and any of those pressure forwards on our list. Spells a bit of danger for Garlett's place on the list too. I wouldn't mind Long on a wing either.
  11. Hang on. So Channel 7 are reporting news based off Facebook posts? That is hilarious. Who said modern day journalism and/or commercial broadcast TV was dead? ? Btw, you [censored] suck Channel 7.
  12. Absolutely but Polec is flakey and Tyson is a goer and that's it. They needed two or three Josh Kelly's.
  13. Perfect result if so. North won't challenge and their midfield is already one paced. Do the deal.
  14. Would have taken you for a mac cap man these days mate. I apologise for contributing to the digression.
  15. Am I right in saying that the list managers pull up stumps at 3pm each day? In which case they do less work than the real estate industry and need to tough it out a little longer in order to get deals done.
  16. I hope all those posters who banged on about 2019 being the super draft, pay attention to this line. I know they won't. Next year will become the new, deep super draft.
  17. Can't believe that some around here wouldn't back this FD by now. Some could argue we paid too much in the Lever deal (not something I advocate), but sometimes you have to pay a bit when you're buying. In the Jesse scenario, as a few posters have already mentioned, we hold the whip and Freo are doing the buying. You watch. They'll pay two first rounders or he'll stay in Melbourne.
  18. Has any footballer ever been banned for life for elbowing? It just sounds like you're looking for reasons to say no that aren't there.
  19. That is an hysterical viewpoint, mate.
  20. The definition of being on a list because of who his father was. Only in this instance, if I remember rightly, his father recruited him as well.
  21. You watch. Someone like that Muppet Browne will report now that we're trying to get May via trading 2nd and 3rd rounders for a 1st rounder.
  22. I reckon under the right coach their spine has great potential, but their midfield is still bog ordinary aside from Cripps and Curnow. Dow might be okay but with SOS' record could well be a bust too.
  23. I reckon we were told to deadline and we simply haven't leaked Jesse's decision since.
  24. Haha. Lobb has the same value as Jesse. Righto. These gronks crack me up.
