  1. Are you serious? That would mean the AFL treating MFC and EFC in an even handed manner, like alternating home games and not having one club monopolizing for a decade.
  2. Jesse is clearly angling for a pay rise as he can’t afford socks, or a jacket that fits him.
  3. I tend to agree - other than his well publicized brain fade he just works hard and often unnoticed. Hopefully he will return chastened and with all to prove. ( Still regard him as a fringe player - the “incident” will make or break him IMO.
  4. Maybe they have really shirt memories and only recall our totally pathetic “effort” (using the term really loosely) last time we met.
  5. Sean Charles #2??
  6. I certainly agree with your view that the term “going to be a gun” is grossly overused - I clearly remember more than one poster (though I can’t remember who) throwing the term “gun” re the likes of Blease, Strauss, Maric, Morton, even Tynan and Taggert. Lets hold off such lauding until they actually do something eg Oliver, Viney
  7. Could fit in quite well ?
  8. Yeah....I am certain that the club would never have give that any thought at all ?
  9. Adelaide were, until now, my favorite interstate club and Tex my favorite non MFC leader. No longer - wasn’t Tex ranked amongst the bottom level for effectiveness in the GF. I was waiting for his leadership after half time but it never appeared. Flat track bullies?
  10. Very short memories by the hypocrite Crows.....now that our Scott Thompson has retired from their list.
  11. of course game plans can change over an off season (or even in a season) but I agree that Tom is a better "tall target" deep forward that Jesse Pick 18?? That is very insulting to primates Because he hardly spoke, and didn't ask endless inane questions
  12. Could not bring myself to watch that unrepentant narcissistic drug cheat have his name associated publicly with the great Norm Smith Was there a goodly amount and volume of booing? Was HWSNBN introduced by Gil as a martyred hero coming home??
  13. So he can kick a curved goal from the wrong picket then?? ?
  14. The whole AFL are a disgrace on this - and the fish rots from the head.
  15. I don't watch enough of other games in detail but can anyone answer who at which teams do better v the likes of Daniher and Frankenstein and Ben Brown and Hawkins and Walker?
  16. Well if we are in the box seat, I hope they use that seat with far far more commitment than they did when in the box seat going into round 23 ??
  17. Thanks Brock....we can now look forward to another big fine for not breaking any rules. But Champion Data says they are the best in the business
  18. So, they want.......? I want Kelly, Martin, Lever, Ben Brown (subject to a haircut). Can we please have them all.
  19. Source? Sauce? What sort of sauce? And I guess Gillon would be fully on board (and maybe offering some gentle persuasion) as the poor Druggies were so hardly done by. Source? Were R and M veterans, and if so would their departure free up quite so much?
  20. In a way for a hard tough inside gatherer stats may be more relevant than for a flashy outside releaser. Right back to the days of James McDonald I often thought what a quiet day he had had and was surprised to see 30+ disposals. Same for Clarrie....I reckon, live at a game, I would remember seeing maybe a dozen or so. But what an impact he is having!
  21. He had better be very careful. If he gets too close* to Dusty I am sure somebody in some corrupt body will ensure that he gets rubbed out for a week for a trumped up charge ? Betting agencies would be appalled were Clayton to come from nowhere * and don't give that AFL BS that nobody knows how the votes are running
  22. Our ex-Jeremy thought he would get one there sooner ? Offer them Garland, but blur the writing a bit so they, in their confusion, think it was Garlett.
  23. I know this is an Oliver thread, but I think already it is ok to speak of him in the same sentence as Robbie Flower. OMG that clip brings back great memories, especially those first two finals in quarter of a century. So sad that Robbie played most of his career in a truly uncompetitive series of teams. Deserved multiple premiership medallions and Normies.
  24. Cant remember the draft order, but who would you not have drafted in his stead?
