monoccular

Can't even defend a lead for forty bloody seconds - man up and stack the back line ......bloody hell it is just so sad that ........ what can one say??????

Heffernan, Moorcroft :-(((( Certainly pass on him now.

The English language can have some amazing nuances when used creatively. Beautiful turn of phrase.And, back to topic. What is Dawes' contract status?

You beat me to the punch...was going to post but cared so little that I didn't.

...by 187 points :-)

Many posters on this thread sem to have not read the headr - it has been hijacked as a McCartin thread.

Please remind me how many games Jeremy played as a forward this year?

The 'photos' McKenzie and Evans have are their contracts

Garry and Ross perhaps?

It was surely, in effect, Salam plus Tyson over Kelly, just to put it into true perspective. Do you honestly think that Kelly, in our side, would be burning them up this year?

Q: What colour will the sky be on Sunday afternoon? A: Who cares, we won't see it playing at Doglands.

How come we are stuck with this underscheiving blue sky that will never get us anywhere, when we should obviously have taken that fantastic teal sky that is exciting all those lucky Port Adelaide fans. What a shocking choice.

IIRC we lost one last September - final game of the season.

Fabulous post But Mr Roos, aided by Mr Jackson, and maybe a few players, will inevitably bring us all unprecedented joy and success within twelve months. Without a shadow of doubt.

Are you implying that you wouldn't take Dawes, Salem....or Judd, Ball, Goddard, Richards, Rioli (though not the stereotype), the Scotts, Hawkins etc ???

"A solid source inside the recruiting office?"

provided his name doesn't start with $. :-)

Certainly looks as if we have snagged a couple of absolute rippers this time. Congrats to the recruiting team.

What a great article. I haven't read many or maybe any of Murphy's articles before but I will now. Well written. Does anyone know if it is all his own work or is it ghosted.

and only one season since our last flag....how many would have dreamed in their worst nightmares that we would be still waiting? Hard to believe that our last winning GF tickets cost probably about 8 shillings and sixpence !!

Yeah. I look forward to either one striving to be better than the other, not in a one upmanship sense but I think they will push each other to greater and greater heights. . I couldn't help noticing JKH and to a slightly lesser extent Salem doing this too, especially early in the Crows game. Very poised. Both look to have what Alan Jeans once (was reputed to have) said when asked what attribute he looks for most in a young player - balance !!

We only have one Tapscott and one Fitzpatrick, so how can we trade a Tapscott or a Fitzpatrick?

These Kennedys are more prolific than the USA Royals.

If he don't want us,we don't want him. Simple. Conscript armies rarely outfight professionals.

I had thought that a veteran had to play 10 years at the one club - no doubt Vlad will have given the franchises special exemptions as he has for most things.
