  1. I'd be happy with that too. Purely to send Brad Scott into meltdown. He's far too smug when refering to us.
  2. FWIW , it wouldn't have bothered Eddie if the coach he wanted was in the middle of a finals campaign. And thank god we didn't get the negative Lyon. Problem is, we got the negative Neeld.
  3. When I read the title I thought "everyone." I hate with a passion Essendon , Collingwood and Carlton in that order but to create the most mayhem I would select Carton. With Ratten under pump for their last 2 loses imagine the pressure he would be experiencing if we got over them. We've been the final nail in the coffin for a few opposition coach sackings in our time and it'd be great to have Rattens head over the mantle piece aswell.
  4. That's because like us , they're lost for words how totally hopeless we are and can't fathom how far we've gone backwards.
  5. The only way Cloke would go to Freo would be a Scully like package deal. Dad gets to go too. Having said that , I don't want him. Not for a Million a season ....That's crazy money for someone who's a dodgy kick. Now if we were talking an elite Mid ... Maybe.
  6. I'll throw in Magner. He's on the cheap anyhoo.
  7. Flags earn respect . Not getting flogged in GF's.
  8. Lloyd came from a club that had beaten us up for the last 30 years , little wonder they don't respect us.
  9. This can be a selling point to attract players to the club. You don't have to be a top player, run too hard or perform consistently to get Buddy , Mitchell , Rioli , Hodge money with us.
  10. Come on man .... Talk about clutching at straws.
  11. Pfft ..... I'd be wrapped if they did .
  12. That was a genuine question . I couldn't be bothered checking. You obviously battle in the football comprehension stakes tho'.
  13. Do ya think they're cracking smiles and having amusing twinkles in their eyes cause they can't believe how inept we are?
  14. Remind me when our last win was when all this goal kicking was going on.
  15. It is when you leave the 'G' in your classic GT350 'stang.
  16. Danihers biggest problem was he was a victim of our lazy culture. Explain why we could play for a flag in 2000 with players like Neitz , Uze , Farmer ,Robertson etc in there prime and young guns like Green and Bruce showing plenty and then fall to 11th the next year. Had a decent year and played some cracking football in a semi against adelaide in '02. Dropped to 14th in '03. Sit on top in rd18 of '04 to loose the last 4 games and knocked out've the elimination by the Bombers. Finished 7th in '05. I haven't bothered mentioning the slumps we had during the good years either when whe'd drop strings of games or lose crucial matches to bottom sides. I've had issue with Daniher playing favorites etc but really he didn't know if he was Artha or Martha half the time. It was during his reign that the phrase " We just didn't come to play." was regularly trotted out.
  17. We do but we tried to turn him into a half back flanker and he lost his mojo.
  18. The only difference in development between us and the top sides is the intangible that the kids have to work alot harder to get games and maintain their place in the leading sides. Only the best of the youngsters in top sides manage to do it. We however have a revolving door policy and the kids are rewarded senior games for more mediocre efforts.
  19. Darling was good tonight but I'm not gonna cry over coulda shouldas never didas. They have some nice big forwards to bomb it into in high pressure finals tho'. The Dawks rely very heavily on Gibson and Franklin IMO. 1 of those 2 go down and they're finished.
  20. Don't kid yourself. The Dawks didn't develop Rioli, he was a gem when he walked through the doors.
  21. Yeah mate , an awesome moment in time Whelans bump changed the momentum of the game , trappers goal was gravy.
  22. Totally agree Mono. The five lost ones are about as relevant to me as the twelve we already have. As far as I'm concerned , I'm flagless.
