If you get delist Gillies, Sellar and Davis that leaves you with Pederson as the only bigger bodied back up. You happy with that? I'm not.

Christ Moonshadow first humour followed up by sense. You are clearly lost.

He he he ! Demonland has the capacity to brighten us all up.

Might be a West Australian social sport.

Kosi

Nice thought but good luck.

Too tall probably

He'll get a new three year deal.

Who doesn't fit and who do we have? Mumford,Pike,White, Reid, Jamar. Might be a few changes coming.

Not much conversation, that's for sure.

Colless talks of Swans possible oblivion in 2002. Interesting how the wheel can turn. Also talks of a $200k profit this year after winning the main prize last year!! Eye opening interview.

Bit of a different scale to 125 jabs.

Think we should have a chill out for a second. Would be surprised if we were taking blokes offsite , carrying out stuff like Essendon. Lets wait a second before the floggings begin.

Interesting. Didn't move to Carlton after our tanking allegations?

I don't get it either. In addition , Davis ( a bloke with a bit of grunt)after two games for a head dropper.

Sad but true. Chucking "snow balls" at City Hall rarely works.

Echo all of that and one club player ( after a little negotiation) to boot. Signs were evident last year, so smart decision and leaves with head held high. Good job, very handy career.

That's the way, lets get rid of a 200 and something athletic forward who is coming along nicely, for an outside midget. Took us an eternity to get anyone over 180 on the list and now we want get rid of them? The midfield is poor we all know that, but lets remain a little sensible how we go about repairing it. Strange as it may seem IMO I don't think we need that much. Viney and Jones are good so we need a true A grader ( or a future A grader) and a couple of others. GWS may be a good starting point and we owe them

He may be over qualified.

Seconded. Congratulations to Troy, I hope he goes well. For my part I'm pleased to see he got a game and think he has earned it.

and me.

Players , football dept, administrative staff would never read Demonland and ask themselves what the f..k goes on between these internal waring factions? They might not ask themselves "do we have an unity around the joint"? They might not ask themselves "Geez the expect unity and loyalty from us and they cant get their own s.it together"? In any case I just fail to get any "positive take out" from any of it whatsoever. Its just a dumb thread for me, sorry. P.S. I was generalising re the suggestion some might be wanting the club fall.

I take that as conciliatory from you Rhino, and at the risk of seeming patronising, I congratulate you for it and see it as one of the club's positives for the year. Alas however, on we go with more and more of the crud. Is the for ever ongoing b.llshit , still coming, ever going to help the club progress? I doubt it. So whilst a few of our players might be spuds, they have plenty of bitter mates who simply get their jollies by being/ and seemingly enjoying being stuck knee deep in the smelly stuff. Could it be that all this assists with destabilising the place? For some pretty intelligent people I'm surprised that many just have to keep going with this and wonder if the real agenda might be to see the club fall.

Isn't all this a bit meaningless? I just cant see how playing the blame game, looking back and pointing fingers helps when all that matters is what happens in the future. I'm non aligned with any current or past group associated with the club, although I'm sure they all gave it their best shot,(if they didn't they are gone now anyway) however you don't have to be all that clever to realise that there a number who use the Demonland site are more interested in looking back and trying to point score, rather than looking forward. I also doubt if this would have gone unnoticed at the AFL level. Even they might be able to see there is an issue here. What's happened in the past has happened and nothing is going to change that, constantly rehashing yesterdays news gets a little boring, so how about we all get over it as we have one or two more serious problems to deal with.

Roos seems very laconic/ disinterested even on the coaching position. Certainly I have seen no evidence of a great desire for the role, hope he is not simply enjoying the courting whilst pushing the dollars up without any real and genuine interest. This is a pretty dark place we are currently in and we don't need a bloke to be motivated by simply sucking more dollars out of the place. Think I prefer Choco Williams and Rodney Eade as better alternatives.
