  1. Correct LDC but IMO they have a big job in front of them because the product is average. They don't get much in the way of good reviews from the Motoring Press. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder but again only my view but they look average and are expensive. However they are part of the Nissan/ Mitsubishi/ Renault group that sold the most vehicles in 2018 on a world basis so who knows how committed they are to the Australian market. Like our team 2019 will be an interesting year. I doubt they will be able to say they did not get plenty of exposure. Who knows what advertisers feels is good value for money. Jeep has been a Richmond major sponsor now for years and all through the Tigers run up to the flag and beyond Jeep sales have fallen. One view from that is without the Tigers exposure they would have fallen further. My view is they should be selling a better product and the money spent at Richmond is not doing much to help them. But perhaps wisely Jeep do not agree with me.
  2. Not going anywhere Mr Moon
  3. A small comment on one of our major sponsors. Lexus sold more cars in Jan. 2019 than Infiniti sold for all of 2018. It seems the Dees have the job in front of them getting Infiniti up in 2019.
  4. Just not necessary to maintain my support SWYL. It probably puts me in a very small group of members ( I doubt it is more than 2 ) but just they way I feel. If it happens I will enjoy as much as everyone else.
  5. Still don't see any need to rush with a contract for him. Like you I want the MFC as a power in the AFL long after I shuffle off. As long as that happens then wether we win a flag or not is minor to me in my years left. I appreciate that it is probably vital to younger members and necessary to build membership. If it's happens fine but I long ago gave up on it as a must have.
  6. Five years! Three is enough if he cannot win one with this list by 2022 he never will.
  7. There is no rush. He is not going anywhere he knows the list is a good one. Where would he go? Carlton, Freo, saints I don't think so. The MFC can afford to see how the early part of the 2019 season turns out. We can then negotiate from a position of strength.
  8. Some cannot see the Forrest for the trees Mr Leg!
  9. Now while I did not watch but They scored three goals between them for the entire match, seems like the saga of ladies games continues to me. I did however watch the second half of the Cats / Pies game and it was crap. Just a series of scrums up and down the ground with the occasional kick going 40 meters. Those two teams have a very long way to go before you could call it a entertaining sporting event.
  10. Good timing 40 degrees predicted for Sunday afternoon. The game will be over at half time everyone will have past out.
  11. Spot on he might be lucky to start anywhere in March.
  12. Not sure her advice was too far off the mark.
  13. Thank god for that Ernest. I look for to a decade of sustained success.
  14. It was our country zone in the old VFL days Ernest which probably accounts for it. I spent my early life in Bendigo which was Carlton's zone they got a lot of good players from there. I have as a result had a soft spot for the Blues. Helped of course by my old team being two blues.
  15. Now that one was a new one for me Bbo I had to consult the "Oxford" ( Perhaps Mr. Shadow is correct! No definitely not).
  16. Agree but that is a value judgement. And being respectful is another important element. If you are respectful and don't play the man then I have problem with people giving opinions different to my own
  17. Whatever gives you joy LDC.
  18. He is still entitled to give it.
  19. I disagree quite often with dv8 but it is a fan website where most the comment is opinion. So he is entitled to give his.
  20. It would need to have improved because the standard has been crap so far.
  21. This line says it all Vagg, β€œshe who must be obeyed" Tarax knows how the world works. Good effort!
