  1. I would agree Dc in fact I doubt we have had a year this bad since the 70's and we still has 40% of the year to go. It could easily go down as the worst year since 64!
  2. After observering The changes over the last couple of weeks I have come to the conclusion that at the 6th July some players have had there papaers stamped. It appears to me that Morton, Green, Couch, Gysberts, Davey and Petterd are stamped as gone or up for trade at the end of 2012 so lets play other people between now and the end of the year. All below happens in the light of a 10 Goal defeat last week. Davey is injured for one week and comes back via Casey ( after I think his best game of the year in game Vs GWS ) Green Cannot get a game when we have no forwards Couch Upgraded before the season starts plays numerous good games at Casey but cannot get a game at senior level Gysberts Has been back playing at Casey for some weeks but not selected when we are desperate for mid field players Petterd Similar to Green been back from injury for a month now, we are desperate for forwards but cannot get a game Morton We lose two talls through Injury and put in a short guy (who,s form has been poor) in preference to a tall player Looks bad for these guys Am I imagining too much? What do you all think?
  3. Sorry Redleg no amount of fitness will cover a lack of skill and desire. Back to WA for me. Lets face it we are third last on the ladder 5 years into a rebuild. We must have a number of players that are not AFL standard. No. 7 is not on his own but in 9 weeks time 5-6 players should be for the high jump. IMHO no7 is in the lead group
  4. I doubt there is anything that would stir him up, you cannot pull up your socks if you do not have any on Redleg
  5. No courage DC?
  6. I am not certain on wyl, you may well be right of course he may be going to both. If you are trying to bait me DC it works every time with N0.7 I am going to the Brisbane game with my brother who is a Gabba Member so we get to eat and sit among the upper crust of Brisbane. It will not look very good to be seen lying on the floor in a fetal position crying. So please No.7 at Casey this weekend. PS Once again I forgot to use chrome!
  7. I think he only left on Monday DC Said he was going to the game on sunday. Also think he was going to Thailand
  8. Not sure that Fitzroy fans would agree with you Redleg. They got dealt some pretty crappy hands in their last two years.
  9. Stop this Redleg I reckon you are mosing us. However it is hard to argue with your idea.
  10. Thanks for the idea DC Yes Mrs OD does sow however not sure she will do the job mate. Bloody Pies fan. However it has given me a great idea for a blanket for No.1 Granddaughter. Now that will put the cat among the piegons! Or perhaps the dee among the pies!
  11. \Nah the other bloke is still king Grapeviney
  12. What did you say Willis
  13. My faith in Humanity has been restored
  14. Agree rpfc However as you suggest for some they will take it to the grave. The USA civil war has been over for 150+ years but there is still angst betweenthe north and the south. lets get on with winning games please!
  15. No they are not hatchman. They was a sound case for both sides of the merge at the time. A lot of very loyal dees fans voted to make sure their club in any fashion survived. It is now history But pillorying people from back then achieves nothing. look to the future and embrace all dees fans who buy a membership in 2012 and beyond.
  16. Hip & Shoulder I am not sure how much more the average member can do. - we have helped reduce the $5 million debt to ZERO - we have bought memberships ( 35000 of us) for 5 years of pityful performance on the field - we go to games to support the team knowing full well we are in for a belting most games. What more do you suggest we can do ? -
  17. Yes it seems we do not have much luck. I seem to remember that a couple of those we drafted knowing they would be out their first year. Gawn and Fitzpatrick I think. I do not take a lot of interest in the fortunes of draftees at other clubs Redleg So I do not know if we are poor by comparsion or not. but like you I think we seem to have a lot of bad luck with these guys. PS you could have added Grimes to that list
  18. I think that during these dark days at the MFC it is very sad that the site cannot afford one thread that is light hearted and does not take itself seriously. We have a multitude of threads with people at each others throats.
  19. Quite obviously your mind is made up. So have a nice night WJ
  20. Pole is already done WJ 2095 posts say yes. what point does he have? That it is embarassing Absolutely one persons opinion. However I get the feeling you agree Is that the case?
  21. 98 posts says it all.
  22. Spot on Redleg. I do not understand your logic WJ. As Redleg says this the only thread that bans talk of that person, it was founded for that reason. Please let it continue.
  23. Hi Biffen not sure what you are asking me. This started by me saving I hate warm milk with a slight taste of coffee. eg. Coffee latta. That does not mean i don't have smaller amounts of milk in my coffee. does that cover it? PS loved " Baldrick" oh for some television like that now instead of all that other crap we get served. It I see another bloody talent show I will return my TV. Well not really but I hope you get the drift.
  24. Surely you jest Redleg we have 10 threads a day opened on Demonland 90% of which are just varations on existing threads. It would be much better to amalgamate half of these. Please Mr. WJ leave alone the only thread on Demonland that provides a small amount of light relief in a very black year. In any case Redleg we could just have Mk2 I suggest BPW. What say you all
  25. You are correct DC However two shots of coffee at least gives it a coffee taste. Usually have when I am a little brittle like after celebrating a Dees win. Umm Wondered why I had not had many lately
