Additional Preseason Games vs Essendon & North Melbourne
old dee replied to Dee Zephyr's topic in Melbourne Demons
We really were still 6 colonies back then PSD. 1970 me and three mates drove to Perth, we left on boxing day in a HD Holden. No air con. It was as hot as hell with still 300 miles of dirt road. Southwark in SA, then the ones you mentioned in WA. Was it Hannans in kalgoorlie? 4 guys in their 20's. My god we drank some beer in 3 weeks. -
Spot on chook, he also told me he got more running a place in a profession foot race meeting than he got for a Saturday footy game. Don Williams left Melbourne and played in Gippsland for two years ( Sale I think ) because the money was better. He then returned for the 64 flag.

There are none in Australia and predictive script did me in.

Not sure many will understand your joke Ray. However it is a good one.

It used be on the opening screen. Obviously it is not that important any longer.

I have been a friend of the late Frank Adams since the early 70's. In a conversation 10 years ago he told me that first year draftees get more in their first year than he got for his entire career. The game back in the sixties was not much above amateur. The only real money he made out of footy was when he joined Channel 7. Times have sure changed. In lots of ways not for the better.

My question is, do we care what Cornes thinks?
-
Are our membership numbers now a secret? Three weeks ago I rang the club to ask why they were not on the website. I was told sorry an omission they will be up shortly. Have not checked today but it appears still to be a secret. Perhaps my idea of " shortly" and the MFC's are different.
-
No it will be wrapped in plastic film.
-
Nice idea but there is as much chance as me being 21 again.

There is no doubt the Richmond station is badly in need of redevelopment. I had not been through it for years until last year. It is like a remnant from the 60's. The problem is the government is sinking billions into the underground. I don't see Richmond getting more than bandaids for this decade.
-
Sadly I think the MFC have moved on. I would be astounded if he returned to the MFC.
-
The major word there is "hopes"

Nothing wrong with that rjay. The world could do with a few more romantics.
-
Rance has broken the contract why do they have to pay $1?
-
Anything for the almighty dollar, and anyway they will need it to help fund Sheedy's crazy ideas.
-
Right now I don't think carrots will work. It would appear he is just in a bad space. Rational thought is simply not there. He needs professional help, I hope he is getting it.

WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - HARLEY BENNELL

Excellent summation AM! -
Get him back!

I read it as their way of stopping any new development into or on public land. This is just the excuse they are using. Seems the AFL and Richmond are very concerned. Would stop any new work at the RFC ground and or the MCG.
-
You are not alone binman, all just part of the 21st century we live in.

There is a story in today's HUN about the melbourne council putting a ban on buildings that create shadow into public parks and how the AFL and numerous others ( including The RFC ) are concerned about this plan. It would appear to put serious restrictions if not a complete stop on any ideas we might have for Goschs paddock. I have a horrible feeling that any plan we have for the area is about to be "planned " out of existence.
-
Isn't this the same plan Eddie put up a year or two ago?

Is Morrell bridge closed?
