  1. Correction : you use the word “or” which suggests the two are mutually exclusive traits ?
  2. Put me in the team and I would be consistent - consistently hopelesss. What was the lead up the the remonstrations with Goddard ?. .... was it just that he is the least likeable of all AFL players in my memory (including Boomer Harvey, and that is saying something) or was there something else specific in addition?
  3. IMO all premierships since say 1964 should be declared null and void
  4. Looking at Docklands surface Sunday it would be easy to sweep anything under the grass there.
  5. Yes. I don’t think anything more needs to be, or should be said at this stage, regarding Thompson anyway.
  6. At least the inane TV commentators won’t be able to say whenever he gets the ball “he comes from a basketball background” ?
  7. Good point .... and our crumbers up forward other than Spargo arent your usual smalls. Fritsch, Hannan can take a grab when needed One or two fly, the rest crumb. Sack Goody now replace with Clint. ? Far better to be an optimist who is sometimes wrong than a pessimist who is always right !
  8. Short memory? Clarrie was BOG or close on debut and for weeks following
  9. Well hopefully not the same side as his major one last time.
  10. FCS it is no good dwelling on the past and wrist slitting - tes we got it wrong - but continuing this what if stuff could be soul destroying Enjoy what we have with the likes of Clarrie, Petracca, Salem, Hogan, maybe Viney some day, etc
  11. NOT a banned substance Being used under special permit meaning that it will be carefully monitored, and unlike EssUndone records will be kept So, very different from Hird and Danks’ secret human experimentation
  12. IF IF IF IF IF!! IF we picked up Ollie, who know we may have won a few more and missed on Clarrie? Too many IFs. IF we picked Dusty, Buddy etc etc. Water under the bridge.
  13. And Worsfold would be just the person to work the chemistry to perfection. STOP PRESS - could the cricket saga have come t a better time for the EFC drug cheats? They have handed on the mantle of "the darkest moment in Australian sport" to Cricket Oz.
  14. ✔ Didn’t listen to the commentary but were he in rednblue the cheap free he got would have gone the other way. He was out marked in the contest too. otherwise, some nice kicks, but no hard stuff needed The grey was however a nice change from teal. How pathetic is the auto censor. Can’t call a ? a 9u55y FCS.
  15. But I am sure that the AFL integrity commission ??? had a good thorough look at it ???? Jimmy could put in a bit of “the good stuff”
  16. What a fantastic passage of play bringing that up from deep defence. The much maligned Jodie McKenzie was a key link man and looked almost Oliver like (in appearance, and vision) with that chain of hand passes. And listening to that moron Derrwaynn only emphasizes what a <person who tosses something > he is “...and he’s only got Dawes, he’s only got Dawes ....” and Cross passed to Salem .
  17. If he achieves success, and if he performs harder at Port than he did with us, then it would at least say something about his lack of commitment to MFC. He could have with greater sustained effort (if he is really that good) turned around at least 3-4 goals over the entire season 2017 which would have seen us in finals (and probably not in Bali ) later in September.
  18. Mark my words. At least some of this year’s draftees will be labeled “duds” (or some other offensive derogatory term) by some on this forum if they don’t dominate at least some matches next season.
  19. Much as I dislike him (probably because he plays for Norf and usually carves us up) but the locks haven’t done Ben Brown too much harm.
  20. Thanks jackaub Question: how many shovel ready (to use Denial Andrews’ jargon) mids or others do you reckon were available when our turn came about? Names?
  21. Are you suggesting that he will be able to get away with tripping opponents his entire career, and also do PEDs and be lauded as a hero?
  22. What would they know? We have WJD here.
  23. Should fire up well against the Saints then.
