old dee

I was there yesterday DJ, a couple of years since my last visit and back then they had a decent scoreboard. I fortunately took my binoculars, yes folks it is that bad. I was surprised that Casey won so easily, Preuss took them apart even though I though he was used sparingly. It might be my imagination but I reckon he was used sparingly with a trip to WA in mind. I watch a couple of players closely ( well I tried ). while I thought Sparrow and Petty did there jobs well at this level Baker was the only one that looked worthy of a senior game later in the season. Of the kids I liked the game of Chandler, he was probably not in the top half dozen but showed some promise. If we don't pick Smith for a forward role in the team for Perth we have rocks in our heads. While he is never going to be a very good player at senior level he is a solid mark and a good kick for goal. Yesterday he was used around the centre quite a bit with good effect. Based on yesterday's form he and the Giant are the only ones I would pick for senior duties in WA.

Isn't that the first requirement if public office?

Spot on pd.

We have already.

It was a joke RN.

Let you know tonight chook

But but but it is not at the G RN!

You feel old!

Truely a masterpiece! I think we should make you the "Grand Banana "

Why?

Yes to all that Mr. Shadow. I was at the 2017 AGM and PJ said as you say. From memory he said that they ( MFC ) commissioned a $100k + study that showed nothing large enough was available close to the G. Docklands was mention as there being plenty of land big enough but at that time there was no plan under consideration by the government or the city council.

That won't happen until we get a substantial number of the injured back. The simple fact is that between now and at least the June break there is no one else at Casey better.

Club facilities for supporters are grossly overrated in the 21 century. What we need are the best conditions for our players/ FD and to attract potential players. The rest is nice to have but far from a necessarity.

On that time table I will be in the ground before the first aid is turned. As I said good luck.

Amen to that sue!

Why is that a problem DV8? The players, staff and FD won't be arriving by train and it is no further than current from train stations. The members will only be there very occasionally if ever.

Good luck.

Accurate

That would make the Hawks plan at Dingley look cheap at $100 million.

Under PJ's reign it was done, they spent over $100k on a study of everything within 10 km of the G. result nothing was of suitable size. That is what hatched the Yarra park dream. The simple fact is there is no land available in inner melbourne except for the docklands. IMO it is the docklands or outer surburbs.

That makes at least two of us t_u.

Sadly true.

Could not agree more. Our indecision over half a century dc has us in our current position I.e. No flags and no home. Will We ever make a decision and go with it 100%?

What annoys me about our indecision is that the Hawks will build at Dingley and quickly become the favourite of that whole area of the metro area and the Dees will still be dreaming of a home near the G.

Yes look at the hate for Hawthorn, I would love to be hated that much with all those flags over the last 50 years. Remind me how many have we won in that period?
