  1. The AFL could tell Wada to get stuffed, the AFL is an Aussie only affair bb The players do not move over seas like soccer or rugby players. So what if AFL players are banned from playing OS! Now I am confident it won't happen but they could if push came to shove.
  2. Seven at the end of 2013 followed by 7 in 2015 follow by 6 in 2015.
  3. I have been telling you and others that for months bb. I am very confident the players are going to get off lightly. There will be a couple of big scalps in the FD. and perhaps a big fine and or loss of points
  4. The simple fact is that whoever the coach is be it Roos, Eade, Craig or Williams the playing list is crap. Whoever is the coach is going to need three years to just get a list capable of rising above 9th. In 2014 we are still going to be in the bottom four. There are no miracles ahead just slow hard work for the next few years just to get respectable.
  5. We have been a joke for 6 years both on and off the field. Numerous things are under way to fix the off field. I have confidence that this time we are going after a senior successful coach who can produce a team capable of getting us out of the bottom half of the ladder. He will need to start with a lot of cred because we are going to be ordinary in 2014 and will hopefully win a few more games in 2015 Only someone of this type will be able to carry the members and Sponsors for a long time. However we will not improve until a substantial number of players are replaced with AFL standard types. The number that need replacing is probably 20+ now obviously this is going to take some time. My estimate three years at roughly 6 - 7 per year. A very long haul awaits us. The new coach will have a big bearing on who the captain is in 2014. It should not be Trengove not sure that it should be Grimes either IMO Trengove is a good half forward, in that spot he will be a good player but I doubt he will ever be more than that. Grimes is a half back. The sooner we get some real mid fielders the sooner these two can play in the spots the are suited too. and we can stop trying to make them mid fielders. A very long haul awaits the MFC, steely resolve is needed!
  6. I have ever confidence you can bring all that to an end Bbo
  7. Nothing on this thread in 24 hours is more informative than 30 postings on a lot of the other threads. e.g. the prattle on the "Jobe Took The Drug" thread over the last week. Some times silence is golden!
  8. IMO he is waiting to see what happens at Brisbane and Perth wyl.I thing we are option no. 3
  9. The lack of info flowing from the club suggest similar to me
  10. I heard the same about Cook, Bennel, Morton and Gysberts.
  11. Just as well I am not superstitious or I would think we are cursed.
  12. If they were cars you would remove the plates and leave them at the airport car park
  13. Sorry deanok IMO the game played on the weekend is 75% of the reason you are the captain.If you cannot show leadership during a game you should not be the captain. The rest is dancing with your sister. The last two seasons Trengove has barely showed good enough form to justify his spot in the team most weeks Making him and Grimes co captains was another Neeld disaster. Now we are stuck with the problem of removing the captaincy from them.
  14. Surely you jest wyl!Our lot an asset! 50% of them are a liability.
  15. Not sure if you have missed it or not olisik but free to air shows games that rate!The ratings for port and SK would be ten times our game. We have been crap for six years and Brisbane in Melbourne has 5000 x fitzroy supporters. We are a terrible team two thirds of Dees supporters won't watch tonight. Win games and the whole world changes
  16. IMO McQueen this has been Roos primary objective all along.I would not be surprised if Worsfold decides to stay all of a sudden he will have conversion to the Dees.
  17. For that reason I have grave doubts he will play again.Hope I am wrong
  18. You missed my joke McQueen That is exactly why I said Emu Draught mate It turns you still does it not? Unfortunately I lost all my optimism around July 2011 and it has not been seen since.
  19. Wonderful when they get to nearly 3 Stays with us most Friday nights. You probably wont believe this but has today taken to Demon a red and blue teddy I bought her mother 30 years ago.
  20. Yes mate I thought when i typed them they were wrong. My excuse is my grand daughter was demanding attention
