Fork 'em

Problem is the media will not let this issue ride out till the end of the season. They are dogs with a bone and will not let up until a contract is signed . If his manager was truly intent on letting his charge concentrate on just playing football , he'd be signed sooner rather than later. The longer it draws out the worse for us IMO , and the dogs in the media will love it .

1st Jimmy calling for 40,000 members and now Bailey stating our intentions of a decade of dominance . Strong clubs have the confidence to make their intentions clear and even stronger clubs bring it to fruition . Bring it on . B)

Thank god . Ever since watching Schwarz do his knee for 2nd time at Lavington playing in the seconds during the pre-season , the thought of losing another gun player in a fairy floss game terrifies me .

My thoughts exactly , now Jimmy's called the supporters to arms I reakon we'll get it , if not very close . B)

Nah , Danny Hughes never kicked any dropkicks that I remember . Can't remember Blight winning a GF with a torp either . Did see Twiggy Dunn level the drawn '77 GF with 1 tho' . Though I'd love to see it the problem with bringing back the torp is you need a bloke capable of hitting 'em consistantly . Not sure if we have 1 anymore .

I love this . With Jim urging the supporters to get on board and hopefully the players showing some dash with strong early wins to back him up anything is possible .

The red is definately different to the colour on the 2011 members scarf which is a darker red that could almost be maroon. If the colour displayed on the guerseys today are what the team will wear during the season , our supporters will be wearing different colours than the team we support . I feel the excuse that red is hard to get red is weak , as others have noted , it's not a problem that the scum or aints seem to suffer with . The logo may have lead us astray , it's red is closer to the scarf . The colours shown on the actual jumpers however are very different . As for the away strip , some will never be happy no matter what it looks like . For an alternative strip , it aint that bad . Would you prefer we turned up bright yellow as the aints did a few years ago ?

Hated his speech after getting rolled in the 2000 GF aswell . Along the lines of " IF we're lucky enough to get into this position again ...." Not what I wanted to hear David .

I'm hoping we start games well and don't have to fight back from 5-6 goals down . Let the opposition work on stopping our goal avalanches . B)

Anyone who thinks Davey will be plonked in the forward line and left there is dreaming . He'll be rotated through the midfield just like the rest of them .

If they can catch us . Go the MIGHTY Demons !

Wasn't long ago Reiwoldt sledged Lovett about belting his missus . Open season on the Aints IMO . Sucks to be Reiwoldt & Dal Santo , they will never , ever live this down , on field or off .

Couple from "ology Watts is definately getting there size wise and Martin ,,, is there . B)

Frawley OUT - 10-12wks AA backmen can't be replaced but I've got complete faith that Warnock will step up ... again .

Pinched from 'Ology .

Yeah , we got a few 50's but by the letter of the law they were all there , scragging after marks , running over the mark . Sucks having bad disiplin .

Agree about Scott outcoaching us . He'd obviously watched what we'd been doing during the previous weeks and really slowed 'em down . And we don't play Telstra well anyway .

Definately , Brad scott was saying the exact same thing when they beat us the 1st time . " We haven't had the top picks or press they have but we think we've rucruited as well as them ." type of thing . They do seem to have recruited a stronger bodied midfield but their clog the corridor game plan works well against us . Harvey always manages to do a number on us aswell , gotta shut him down . To tell ya the truth it sometime gives me the eeries thinking about it . Reminds me how Thompson used to whine in the papers how St.Kilda was getting the accolades instead of the young cats . Look what happened there . A case of ... What is it , MSPS ??????

Funnily enough I too get those dreams at times . And usually am running my guts out in the backline for little result . The last 1 I woke up when it dawned on me that I was 40 and I couldn't possibly be getting a game .

Gotta agree with this 1 . I haven't let out such a primal roar in years when I thought he'd taken it . Scared the kids , dogs and neighbors and left me shaking for 10 minute after I reakon . Jamar running hard into the forward line leaving Fraser in his wake for mark and goal late in the QB game . Frawleys chase on Jetta . Any one of Joneseys long bombs from outside fiddy . Any of Jurrahs stuff that just makes me let out a little giggle of amazement that he's ours . Watching us carve up the opposition with speed and precision while going coast to coast . Watching Sylvia unleash his speed an power .

Exactly . If you listen to the ferals the next 3 flags are sewn up . They are an even side with a game plan that has caught many on the hop . That game plan will now come under more scrutiny from opposition coaches. IMO we have the talent and speed to beat it and look forward rubbing Malthouses & co's face in it in a final . B)

At this moment you are the greatest influence in your young blokes life . If he turns to another club there is no-one to blame but yourself .

This MoFo should B worried , we've got their overrated number and they know it .

Yeah Mate , without belittling your time & effort ,just watched it again and I gotta agree with 'em . Be better with just the commentating and crowd noise , the footage is great . Anyhoo , bring 0n 2011 , we're in for an exciting ride . B)
