He is open to it.

We have had separate meetings with both Shiel and Bugg and it would seem that both are interested in coming back to Vic. GWS are backing in their ability to retain both on new contracts to avoid losing them. It could be a bluff in an effort to get more in return from us.

I don't care who we draft but to be an elite mid you have to win your own contested ball when taggers start coming your way. I would favour the player who has the ability to win both the contested ball and the loose ball now rather than hope he develops either of those skills after we draft him. We can't muck this up.

^^^^ Can you change your avatar? Every time I see it I vomit a little in my mouth. Not sure how we could accommodate a trade as he has another year to run on his contract but if MFC approached #3 at WCE they may be surprised how interested he is in leaving.

Watts has more talent in his left pinkie than any dogs defender.I don't measure his output just on goals. He has other rolls which he failed to fulfil yesterday. I would hate to be running out of defence with watts as my only option.

No he wasn't. Whilst Green wasn't my favourite Demon, he was never soft. His change was more in terms of style rather than mindset. I get a little irritated when I hear/read that he was soft.Watts was very ordinary yesterday. Lovely kick but as others have pointed out, his overall game was without intensity and intent. For those that thought his game was good yesterday, ask yourself how a player with elite speed could never get separation on the lead? It's a reflection of his overall game.

Great! It won't be so hard to convince my 3 and 6 year old nieces to support the Dees with 'Tinker' floating around the forward line.

He spoke well at the lunch on Saturday. Certainly had a steely resolve about him which I found pleasantly surprising. If the rumour is true, I am pretty happy.

Strauss should be known as Titanic Deck Chair # 1A. In this case the Tiitanic is already residing at the bottom of the ocean.

Maybe they should've. The may rue that decision at 5pm Saturday.

Yuck.Thought Davis may have been a sneaky chance but perhaps we are banking on Pedo making a fool of North for trading him. Unlikely though.

No it couldn't. Jamar would only have currency for a team on the cusp of the top 4 and requiring depth in the ruck. EG Collingwood

I am suffering a major case of 'withdrawal'. When is Spencil clear to play? I dream of a team (not Casey) with Spencil, Gawn and Frisky Fitzy all running around. Blease for Rodan is good. I reckon we left Byrnes in to teach him a lesson about the Geelong style of play.

For a second there I thought you were saying that you still had Garry's lunch money from grade 3. I was going to blame Garry's inability to choose a coach on your bullying in primary school. And his bad back.

There was a bloke at the presidents lunch who kept winking and telling anyone who would listen that, "we got our man". He was in no way connected to the club on a professional level and was completely wasted by the time I spoke to him. Maybe he is sportsbet's source?

3 with an early plea. Challenge. Stevie J had more intent, Simpkins flat our whacked a bloke and Embley kneed a guy on the ground. All of them got less than Spencil. I am outraged. Change the Demonland banner to, 'Save Jake'.

This kid is on the lower end of the huge list of problems currently facing the club. Carry on with your improvement, Dean.

I will be there...... As this seems like our most likely chance of a victory in Melbourne, perhaps the shock late inclusions of Clark, Grimes and Viney are necessary. We could drop them into the ground with a helicopter an hour before the bounce..... Clark wearing a sumo suit to prevent any further injuries, Grimes in a giant inflatable bubble and Viney sporting tissue boxes for footy boots.

I hope so. His lack of explosiveness and top end speed worry more than any 'squibbing' that may be going on. I understand he had hip surgery and needs to spend time physically developing but with his skill set, speed would be helpful.

Pedo.

Like Sylvia's game so far

I hate Dunn

I am sure Matt Jones will improve but his decision makings is at times diabolical.

That kick by McKenzie was pathetic.

What? It's not a criticism, just an observation. Here is another observation. A majority of your posts do more harm than good to your 'cause'.
