old dee

Thanks LH.

If the Dees had 90K members I would not buy one. Why would you buy a membership there is no game that 90k can get into all at once and the chance of a GF ticket are next to none if you hold the lowest level membership. Better to buy a GWS membership that way you can get finals tickets at this point. At 90K membership the game becomes a TV game for me.

Richmond are complaining that they will not get $1 out the funds announced to be spent by the government this morning but the MFC will. I have not had time examine the detail but does anyone know what we are getting?

I blame the ageing process!

Never ceases to amaze me how often people miss the joke LDC

Hardly surprising Mr. Leg this is the same club that managed to look the other way for a decade when half the team was into things illegal.

Time to get your mind around not seeing him till at least July.

Correct LJ and I will go with their wisdom on this as they ain't made any poor ones yet.

Hmm and you still think the eggs came from a rabbit last weekend bb?

They want the money to build the Training/ supporter complex near Goschs and now is probably the right time to sell. The rest is just bonus good will stuff bb.

Dr have you consider that the money may be invested in a new club facility near Goschs ?

It has been gravely ill for some time DC but it was delivered the coup de gras last Wednesday. My interest in professional sport has been restricted to the MFC for some time. These suspensions give me a very small glimmer of hope. I actually watched the highlights of yesterday's match. First time for this tour.

Sounds like a fate worse than death ET.

Australian fair play.

He may not be as good as he thinks he is?

Yep from the outset I said there is more to this than just the ball tampering.

I never said the board were not hypocritical DC. Just my feeling of why so big a penalty. You think they are excessive and I am confident the majority of the GP agree. I don't.

I don't agree the best way is to have meaningful penalties. Players like AFL footballers only understand one thing. Not playing the rest is a slap with a wet tram ticket.

They may want him to get game time. None last week and And an emergency in Bris means no game again.

Depends where you judge it bossdog. The countries mentioned are hardly the peak of the justice system. What it points out is how poor the previous penalties were.

Hope you are right we cannot afford another early pick to amount to zip.

Hmm seems you are fired up about this Mr. Leg. Cannot share your enthusiasm for the poor hardly done by boys. Cheats belong in other places not the Aussie teams. If the penalties were a bit high so be it others might think more in the future.

You can never tell what is really going on with selection steve. Just look at Tyson the last two weeks, the reasons given for his non selection last week have suddenly been ignored. Why is he being left out? who knows and you will never get the real reason. I have a feeling he is out of favour but that is just a gut feeling I have no solid evidence. Injury has ruined his stay so far at the MFC I have little confidence that will change and as you say a no.3 pick !

Yep Good Friday and all dc. if you can't do the time don't do the crime.

I think what has happened dc is they have paid the price for all the sins of the Aussie team over the last decade. All the bulling and bad sportsmanship of the last decade has come out in these penalities. For a decade or more the cricket board have been trying for better behaviour and now was their chance to drive home the fact better behaviour is needed. Why else would you take out the two best batsman for potentially ever? Warner will never play for Australia again, Smith may but after a year off and in his mental state will he ever be as good? All three will carry the cheating label till the day they die and they will carry it for all the cricket cheats internationally who got away with wet tram ticket penalities. The up side? Perhaps players in the future will consider what happened here and refrain from cheating I cannot see any other as we are going to be the easy beats internationally for the next few years. I am not happy about that but cheating and bulling by the Australian team must stop.
