old dee

Sorry mate it took me 15 minutes. Can I help?

Amen to that RobbieF There is no going back I know but I do long for those days. For some time now I have had no interest in Cycling or Athletics and as a consequence the Olympic games. The sad part is now my enthusiasm for Football codes is diminished because every time I see a great performance I think Hmm I wonder if.....

I am one too Of ( dinosaur0 I gave up on expecting objective report some years back. With the competition in the media now it has to be instant story and result. In that atmosphere objective reporting is something we have lost. Not many of those reporters left unfortunately

Not sure that is true Of Please don't take this personally but quite a few on here see her as the the wicked witch of the north and a couple of her articles early in the piece were way over the top. But I find now that if she said it was night time at present they would scream "what are you a meteorologist now. I know it is very difficult but we all have to take a breath . Not everything she says is rubbish

The way we ran things between 2006 and 2011 I reckon there is a good chance we bought the wrong ones.

oh no did we fling all those players and all we had to was give them a few pills!

I guess we all see what we want to a large degree Of. I did not see it that way tonight. Now you can call me naive but the last two times i.e Tuesday on 3AW and tonight I found little to complain about. She make a comment DM was preaching to the converted. Well I was there and guess what he was. I lapped up what he said because it was what i wanted to hear. However we are probably never going to agree it is just my opinion

Every night i say a small pray that it is the case but in my heart I cannot see it happening PJ

Last night I got the opinion that the MFC will fight this to the bitter end. DM started the night saying he had come from a 6 hour board meeting. Then talked about fighting and supporting present and past employees. IMO they are preparing us for a visit to the courts. I may be wrong but that was my feeling

Now I watched the show tonight and I enjoyed and had little to complain about. As far as CW is concerned I thought she was measured and only stated what 75% of the community thinks i.e. we will be charged. Half of Demonland thinks we will be charged.

I got the same feeling Pates

Now here is one for you PJ She will be right

My experience is that unless there are more than one person standing for a position then nothing much happens. I say that from not just attending MFC events. When you have two people trying to get the same spot things hot up and information and dirty linen is aired. Other wise they are fairly controlled events. Lets face it MFC members are probably the most conservative going around. I also think that after 48 years of mainly poor results we have a beaten dog mentality. A pat on the head and a request for unity be it understated or not and we trot off into the night hopeful but probably resigned to our fate. Well that is how I often feel. Strangely perhaps I enjoyed last night.

I said similar this morning . But when?

Robbie I doubt there is drug on earth that could improve some of our selections.

. I hope you are right Rev after the last three days i am not certain we can plead innocence yet. Single was never off rev. The sun will come up tomorrow Go dees

wmth a long time ago my father told me " never ask a question that you do not want to hear the answer to" Right now that is looking very enticing

What! today is too much for me. I think I will take a bex and have a long lie down.

Not sure if it has been mentioned but the coach was asked about Clark and Trengove injuries. He said they had very serious injuries and he hoped for round 1 but then went on about it is 23 game season, long year , owe it to the players to not rush them back. "Coach speak" that said to me forget the first few games.

Even if you are clean it will be tainted. Imagine if the impossible happened this year and the Dees got up. Imagine the headlines.

Did they seemed overall worried about the inquisition redleg?

Funnily 1858 I don't hate any Vic sides any longer. My two hates are WCE and Adelaide. Now those two I smile at the slightest error

I agree billy with 99% of what you say. As I type my disillusionment with top level spot is being sorely tested. I have spent most of life using sport as an escape from the problems of the"real world' Now it is being stuffed up my nose that Australian sport is as rotten as the rest of the world. I am in a state of shock. Can I ever go back to a simpler time. The answer is no. But I despair for the future. PS Rev where are you mate I need your positive comments

Perceptions are a funny thing Jnr Of your list only one annoys me and that is Lyon. And I think I was hinting that it does not matter what I think. If he drags the dees up the ladder he will be my best buddy. However right now I cannot warm to him. Interested that I warmed to DB and he did not know what day it was as it turns out.

I don't agree with that dee-luded I think it is CS and she is not alone. I have said before that GD is also a CS hate'r ( don't think that is a word) My view is that CS does a good job but we are stuck with the problem
