old dee

Tell me about it Dees by 5 points is my guess

An extremely good question Nasher!

IMO RR 2013 is about getting good experienced players into our team. 2014 in our current predictment is a lifetime away. Lets go after the getables for 2013. If he is any good and we may not know till 2014. The que will stretch to about 17 chances.

I am confident the second part applies SMF

Are you sure it has really changed a lot 640MD

Sorry Trident I will try harder in the future

You had me until the milky coffee bit. I cannot stand warm milk with a hint of coffee

What is it you don't understand about our position timD?

The worst arguements are family ones DC

Oh you tough guy DC Does in dribble down your chin? You should make an advert for "tough guy Yoghurt"

How the hell did you know. I was forced into having toast

Mcqueen obviously you think the MFC is a glowing beacon of achievement. Let me remind you we have 1 win and 10 losses The only two teams below us have played a collective of 44 games in the competition The four above us have won 4 times as many games as us Our average losing margin is almost 10 goals and was 7 goals last week. We will not have a player in the all australian squad this year or the first 30 players for that matter. Now you tell me what is there to be happy about with our playing stocks at present. Not a lot. when it comes to our on field ability we are pityfull we have gone nowhere in five years. Now people are responsibility for that. But the only people who seem to have got it in the neck are a few coaching staff who must have had there actions blessed from higher up. Why should I or wyl be bubbling over with excitment

BB I think you are over estimating our position. We are still in the terminal mate. We have no idea what airline we are on and the board says "no flights today".

That will be 5 long seasons by the end of this year wyl. Unless a miracle occurs over the next three months we will be in the same state we were in on the field as five years ago the questions will not so easily put off.

redleg I find the arguement that a whole lot of other people past him up so the MFC did no wrong difficult to swallow. We select and pay our recruiting people to be better than the rest. It justifys nothing to me, all I think is we missed him pure and simple.

As against 95% of the other items that we discuss on Demonland! Always amuses me BH when people complain about TV Content, I watch 10% of what I did 10 years ago I just don't like a lot of the programming now. I have the solution though it is called the off switch. I just don't watch. Same on Demonland, some threads I could not care less about so I don't go on them. Does not mean they are pointless or bad just means i have no interest. The "should have taken darling" story ( which I have contributed to ) will go on for as long as he plays better than Cook. it is hard to see Cook over taking him in the next 18 months at the earliest so I suggest it has a while to run. Just gritt your teeth. Here ends the sermon

So you will miss the big one in 9 days time wyl? Could be the first of many wins this coming half! I will think of you with my 2010 scarf wrapped tightly to keep out the July cold. Don't get too hot in Asia!

I thought Tambling was a Frawley or T Wallace pick Am I wrong?

Oh yes Last sunday I had the weet bix and sour milk trick Not a good result

So another player that was missed because he was not a choir boy! Hope we pick a couple of guys with character flaws like those two. Man do we need them

There not many things worse than too much honey However the bees might give me an arguement

Now that debate could last several pages!

That about covers it Redleg But this is supposed to be T$ free zone. Bananas $1.15 KG this morning and good ones as well.

I do not think there is any doubt Nic has talent. IMO he will be in best player from that years draft in 5 years time. So maybe we got the second best player from that year. If that is the way it pans out so be it. I will be happy with the seocnd best player from that year. It will be way better than the guy we took the year after!

Jaded Cook was selected in the 2010 draft as our first pick. To me that means by 2012 you would expect him to be showing a bit more than he has up to now. Did I expect him to be winning games for us now - no The problem as I see it is we have used a number of high draft picks on guys who are looking ordinary. The team is performing very poorly and we are looking at our stocks for improvement. In that light it is not hard to see why people are looking at Cook and saying "is this another poor pick." I have little idea if he will justify his first round selection or not. I pray he becomes very good but I have a worrying feeling in my gut that it looks like it will 2014 before he is physically up the job of senior football.
