Correct, I am well aware that the AFL don't care their major concern is cash from media rights. All else is running a bad last. I get the sad feeling that in the new rights deal the FTA network will get less than 7 in this deal. Only the casual viewer / poor will be watching their team infrequently on FTA.

Only solution is buy a subscription and to hell with 7/ AFL. Of course that is probably what they want anyway.

Happy to be wrong with this, I checked FTA channel 7 for our game on the weekend and we are not being broadcast. The premiers and not seen again on FTA for two weeks in a row. Why bother with FTA get a subscription and get every game. So much for sponsors getting more coverage. Yes I know we playing the last team on the ladder.

He is just saying what every other coach would think and keep it to themselves. Sydney did the Big deal with buddy that most people thought was ridiculous me included , while it has not netted them a flag they have not slid down the ladder as a result. Buddy’s deal finishes this year so they can use some of that on dusty. Whoever Dusty maybe prepared to accept a bit less than he gets at Richmond if he wants out of Melbourne badly.

And I think he is correct his trade value will never be high.

It won't happen of course. Today's game is not about players kicking double figure goals. 4 or 5 I reckon is the max.

Stop digging!

No you are not alone it is the reason I much prefer to go to a game.

Better than average chance.

I can think of a bloke called Kennedy who got traded by Carlton for the Visy bandit and is still playing.

The following year. One this year and one next year. Simples!

Speaking of Viney what a game yesterday. Unlike a number of his mates his was a four quarter effort.

Got it one Ernest.

I said with Weidman that you have to take into account the team we were playing. Same goes for JVR. I will be impressed when they have both produced similar against a decent side. As you say there are a lot of games to go before it will be established who goes and who stays. Until then it is very nice watching winners.

You opened with "Ridiculous question not even worth debating." Then debated it for nine long paragraphs. So is it worth debating or not?

On top with highest percentage and 9 put of nine wins. A 12 goal win today. Sounds like a good team to me.

Injury aside, No change.

Hear we are after nine rounds, won 9 with the highest percentage. Only one good player out injured. I remember not so long ago when at this point of the season our season was already over. ain’t it great now.

And so say all of us.

Justice must not only be done but seen to be done.

If he doesn't have it now he never will.

You are not alone mono.

Correct but their AFL team is not much more than VFL standard so kicking a bag against their seconds side shouldn't be seen as earth shattering.

Between the AFL and 7 they are hopeless where this competition is concerned. Too many byes, interstate games etc. If either of them told me it was day time I would go outside and check.

They are playing north KC. Don't think that form says much other than I would expect nothing less.
