monoccular

sonof norm: to answer your question, certainly some in the club recruiting / list management hierarchy feel he has some hope, which is why they chose him.

What an absolute wankfest we have ru(i)Ning our game. I ceased to woder that several years back. Gil to dash onto the field on his polo pony: would bring both members of the crowd to their feet.

Weird family was revealed when daddy repeatedly tried to excuse and deflect little boy’s inexcusable carrying on.

Good to hear ..... but how can you bring yourself to speak with Norf fans?

Horrible thing to happen to anybody. Will take a very long time to recover tohis high standards, if at all.

Which supermarket and more importantly what was he buying? Anti-inflammatories? Sox? Nail clippers? Health food?

Still on this earth as of today Certainly not Colonwood supporters !

jnr - you missed the tongue ? in cheek.

Some of my friends (and quite likely some not so friendly observers at matches) seem to believe, for some very strange reason, that I am just a little one eyed about the amazing mighty Demons. And it was not until a while after I registered that it was pointed out, interestingly by an optometrist, that I couldn’t spell?

I don’t see how one can say that Smith “is a better forward than Pedersen”: sure he may become one but is entirely an unknown quantity at this stage. But Pedersen has run his race,and Smith is still in the running. And I do agree that this whole thread is anything other than comparing like with like, which at least to me makes it fairly meaningless

Nev Jetta went from delist to essential part of the team and leading AFL small defender after recovering from (presumably) similar issues. Hope KK can do the same.

My ingrained pessimism (gained from following MFC since the glory years) had me gasping with resigned horror as I quickly read this as “finished for the season”! ??

Is No Hat No a potential international rookie from Vietnam? Clearly gone for the season :-(

Thanks LT for your expert inside medical opinion..?

Are Essendon not allowed to inject their players in the official off season?

Thanks all for your reports. Overall optomistic.

More goal assists 2018 than goals .... all go on the Dees scoreboard. Someone linked his 2017 goal clips; does anyone have 2018? I would be interested in comparing “degree of difficulty” between the years. Did he / was he asked to take on more difficult shots on the back of his great 2017 percentages?

So should we all put the house on him for 2019 Downlow? And Preuss

And we have two Wagners who can compose his background music. Clearly yet another absolute gun ... heard it first here.

Clearly he is going to be an absolute gun - you heard it first here.

I took one specie, and also kicked a great goal crumbing in the Under 16 Ds. .... pity it wasn't filmed (no video then) or I may have been able to make a highlights reel. I think I may have laid a tackle too. And was never subbed out.

Oh ..... I know that Mr Big Knee Jerk will introduce a week off in between ... now it will go until December Mmmm ...... well apparently many want the Brexit vote to be best of two or more, until the desired outcome is achieved......

OMG I see that I have missed a riveting few hours of never to be repeated (thankfully) prime TV. Will it be replayed, and if so when? (I want to know when to use my power supply down time). Please describe in full detail what was Gill wearing and how was his hair styled?

So are you suggesting it was Gil or Shocking?

"Gil. The marketing guys say that having three grand finals could generate a lot more revenue. The TV guys love the idea too" "Mmm. It could mean too that we can get more of the second tier corporate types in who miss out when we only have one GF, because we do have to put up with those bloody bleating members who expect to get to yet another game after watching all season. They really are a nuisance." "We could change the name too, maybe call them playoffs?" "What does Eddie think?" "He would be all for it, but only on the proviso that it is implemented retroactively and they can get another go at WCE. Otherwise he says that it would only work if there was a 'trigger', that being if Colonwood lose the first playoff." "Well how about we 'progress the idea', but leak out that it is the interstate clubs that are pushing it, not us. Some traditionalists could get angry at us"
