Just watched the interview with Col Garland at the Melbourne website. He spoke so well about Jim and the future for the club. A credit to you Col.

Agree

Hope he is ok, he fights so hard, Buddy kicked 2.6 last week against Davis from Adelaide and everyone lauded him. We gave over 70 I50s away and Buddy kicked 2.4.

Round 1 Sydney at the G.

Plz tell me what Bartram and Garland did wrong yesterday?

Bartram tagged Harvey very well and kept at his task all day and garland played on Thomas and Edwards and neither kicked a goal.

Its tough this week Sylvia in but who for?

Garland hadd 11 possessions at 100% effectiveness, 3 tackles, 4 spoils and played on porplyzia mainly who had no influence, what did he do wrong?

Bennell, Bail and Bartram all had good games so no way can they go.

Great position to be in as a club.

thoughts?

Why did you get shot down for that suggestion -I confirmed it before the club did and I know who put Meeson there as well.

I dunno mate ask the people that shot me down?

It was in the Buckley and Valenti thread.

What do u mean u know who put Meeson there? I do as well Tim Harrington.

Please, I implore you, explain how exactly Meesen and Newton can be demoted to the rookie list...

Can't wait to hear your explanation.

Cant explain it mate, but its correct, i dont bs.

Hey i got shot down buy a few for suggesting Newton to the rookie list, but ive heard him and Meeson will be on the rookie list next year.

Played Tassie U/18s with Garland, could be a good influence on him at Melb?

Has talent and is a very good kick, not the quickest player around but his football awareness is very good, he is fit to do a full pre season too which could mean his first real shot at playing AFL footy.

I said this in another thread and got blasted around 2 weeks ago.

They will do this with Newton cos it makes sense.

i reckon theyll cut Newton and then put him on the rookie list (if no other club takes him) so they dont waste the money for paying him out totally.

Im hearing we play the Bulldogs in our only Friday night game in Rd 7, and we have like 7 of the first 8 games at the G and we only have 5 interstate games from a very good source.

Both Mckenzie and Cheney had minor ankle surgery on Tuesday last week, nothing serious just getting spurs removed, case closed?

It was just Garland, but i was just trying to say how having all these young injured players back next year is going to be a real bonus.

Not sure on Meesen's status.

Hey guys i normally do not post anything here, but thought i should just mention strolling past Junction oval today to see C.Garland running laps of Junction.

By the looks of him he will definetly be right Rd 1. With him, Wonna, Blease, Strauss and Maric all back from injury i say bring on 2010 cos they will all be like new recruits for us.

I heard Robbo gave the number 24 to him.
