  1. Ross Lyon must be comcerned his team are not getting sufficiently hard games for its finals preperations.
  2. Watts looking to get suspended?
  3. After 8 min one inside fifty only because Freo moved the ball backwards.
  4. Spencer outmarking Sandilands? Dumb.
  5. Eventually it may be the players who will detirmine the Gang of Four's ultimate fate. Their last four games have almost sunk to Melbourne under Neeld standard. The loyalty that Hird commanded a few months ago may be evaporating fast.
  6. McLean BOG today. 3 goal second quarter to turn the game around and burn off Richmond. No Judd, no Carrazzo. Thanks Schwab for pissing him off.
  7. Who is this Jacoby guy? Is he a relation of Gutnick's. Has he a spare 5 million to donate?
  8. i just hope he can bring a clear headedness to this club that has been missing for decades.
  9. if only he had the talent of the better half of our list and that better half had his hardness and courage.
  10. I might make an offer just for the Kaspersky logos. But please cut out the numbers. Double 4's very unlucky as the Chinese say.
  11. You can add the Mardi Gras crowd too.
  12. Since Jack's signature depends on who will be coaching It would be good if he outs who he would prefer to play under.
  13. No doubt he will say he wants to be a one club player for the rest of his career. So no need to watch.
  14. Premiership coaches who failed their last messiah gig since 1970. K Sheedy at GWS D Pagan at Scumland M Blight at ST K A Joyce at Bulldogs R Walls cant remember A Jesaulenko at St K R Barrassi, One messiah success. Two failed. T Jewell cant remember J Kennedy at North True Messiahs M Malthouse, on the way to fail at scumland? L Mathews. D Parkin, had a failed stint at Fitzroy in between. A Jeans. We have have less than 30% chance of landing a true messiah. But thats better than what we have gotten for decades. A big challenge ahead.
  15. I heard the Lions have a huge debt. How are they going to get Roos at the big figures that are being touted for him? I am unaware of any generous benafactors or handouts from the AFL at this stage.
  16. Can we get Neale back?
  17. If Eade got the job I could live with it. But as I said a few weeks ago he reminds of another Neale Daniher. Their records, game and development style are very similar.
  18. One of Voss,s other big failing was to continue to rely on a strategy based around getting the ball to an ageging Johnathon Brown at all costs. Living on past glories up there and an old boys club. Kept Voss for too long. Should have gone two years ago.
  19. One thing that puzzles me is, where is the Rodney Eade thread? Have I missed it?
  20. You have a point there. Lyon and Longmire are still at the coal face with continuity of excellence. Roos has been on the sidelines living off past glories for a few years now.
  21. Good, I hope Roos is quivering in his thongs at the prospect.
  22. Barassi
  23. If could get I deal like this I will be rapt. These guys are still young but over growing pains. We can't afford to develop midfielders fron scratch at the moment no matter how highly rated in the draft. Viney and Toumpas still have a long way to go. This is the proverbial bird in the hand rather than two in the bush.
  24. The worst season ever? Well this should be good news if true. Things must then get better. Last I recall we are still the MFC.
  25. My rule of thumb. An inexperienced coach given our fractured state has 20% chance of success. 40% chance of keeping the wolf away from the door for the next messiah,........and 40% chance of turning us into the new Tasmania franchise.
