  1. I'll support the massive majority who,by-the-way,I doubt would also list "Brad Miller" as a favourite player !
  2. Looks a genuine improver and fitter looking. In the past he had a lean from the waist which appears to have been straightened out .
  3. Correct. Scores : Melb 15.13 103 Ess 8.9.57 Beamer B.O.G. in his debut for us Ooze 4 goals
  4. Just confirmed on the wonderful DEMONWIKI site what i suspected......our last win in round 1 was in 2005 ! I'll be taking the advice of Corp. Jones in "Dad's Army" if we lose: "DONT PANIC" !
  5. My only complaint is the postage stamp sized sticker of our great new logo. Looks a bit feeble on the car i'm afraid !
  6. Wow ! Memories flood back ! Still waiting for someone to find and post AJ's mega torp after the half time siren at the G versus Pies.
  7. Surely our TRUE form is neither our scrappy pre-season efforts nor our stellar efforts against the Pies and Swans. With natural improvement from our young list we should realistically expect to make the 8 ........ just !!
  8. I cant believe Juice has lasted so long. He takes an occasional screamer then drops a sitter . He's about as flexible and pacy as Ben Holland ! ISNT THIS BLEEDING OBVIOUS !
  9. Maybe Bin Laden himself is behind this post attempting to sap morale in this fair city. Losing to Brisbane and Gold Coast ???? Just what we hopeful supporters need.......A BIG DOLLOP OF NEGATIVITY !
  10. Always entertaining with a touch of flamboyance ! My most vivid memory,however,is the day he started brilliantly against Lockett and then had to endure several savage charges from the frustrated big fella culminating in a devastating "clean-up" which forced him from the field. Hated Lockett ever since ! Every best wish to our Scots/Irish mate.
  11. Suspect Robbo is suffering from Irrelevance Syndrome. Still, Aker has a job on the radio !
  12. Essendon and Hawthorn supporters ooze condescension. The attacks on a teenage Brad Green in the 2000 GF plus the non apology from Michael Long for the head attack on Troy Simmonds add to my ire ! At least after the Pie games last year i received a few sincere "Bad luck mate" comments in Yarra Park after the games.
  13. Dare i say Sam's greatest contribution at the moment is his close friendship with Sculs. IT ALL HELPS !
  14. It's been an open secret forever that Mike is a supporter but of the barely lukewarm variety. Just like the irritatingly cynical Neil Mitchell he thought the proposed merger made perfect sense !
  15. I refuse to be cynical ! He has agreed to address the media tomorrow in spite of intense speculation about his future and he cant be noncommittal or it would just fuel the fire. He WILL give us good news !
  16. Just a bit of a naughty boy eh ? IT'S BEEN GOING ON FOR A DECADE ! One incident in the early 2000's was particularly nasty when the proprietress of an Erroll St dry cleaners had to be rescued by passersby from a drunken Fev(with Ryan Houlihan) who were aggressively harassing her at about 8 in the morning !
  17. Yes, i can see him now.....sooking in the goal square directing Brad and LJ to give him more room.....JUST WHAT WE NEED ! May i suggest you join Ricky for treatment !
  18. Would nearly 30,000 views on the Scully to GWS issue be an all-time Demonland record ? Hope management are taking note.....we are hurting out here !
  19. Leave RF out of this discussion.....HE WAS SIMPLY A FREAK ! Cale, as a versatile player with a touch of class, needs to bulk up a bit to improve his competitiveness.....and that includes for a guaranteed spot in the side !
  20. He's actually got defined thighs now. He used to look like a Little Leaguer wearing his big brother's shorts !
  21. Spot on.......Greg Williams-type magic hands/vision but a not particularly accurate kick and seriously lacks distance. Above all , he is a ball magnet and just like Robert Harvey who had similar deficiencies will play 300+ games ! As a quality character, i am confident he will stick by his peers and be well looked after by our management. I suspect he's not the "trophy missus" etc type !
  22. Best "wet-tracker" i've ever seen ! Mind you, my eyes were not opened to his true ability until our famous close-checking CHB Brian "Doc" Roet retired!
  23. Well, there it is ! The bookies have stopped betting and are paying out ALREADY on WHIPPING BOY OF 2011 !
  24. Been a bit emotional today getting the sniffles listening to Brad's speech to the players and being enraged by the smarmy, sarcastic comments on AW by Dwayne Russell who suggested he used to be a bit soft . I'll never forgive Essendon for their deliberate monstering of the teenage Green in the 2000 G.F. culminating in a potentially fatal injury. As long as he has played, bravely backing into packs to mark has been a trade mark . It seems that good looking players are often automatically deemed to be "soft " without a shred of evidence.
  25. Final 8 betting for us is effectively a five horse race for 2 positions/ dividends, with the Crows, Swans, Roos and Blues our real competition. The remaining 12 teams can be exactly divided into " THE CERTAINTIES " and "THE HOPELESS ". The deciding factor for us may well be reasonable luck with injuries.
