  1. Must be on 'the good stuff' ?
  2. Probably not dc. Like the MCG they would be protective of the turf
  3. Yes, one of the differences between some of our suggestions and Collingwood's take over of OP is that OP wasn't parkland, but an already existing sporting facility, and a run down one at that. It will be very hard to convince govt/s and other interest groups that replacing parkland with ovals or sports buildings can be sufficiently justified to the wider public.
  4. Unfortunately, can't see the govt permitting further loss of green open space in the area
  5. Slight side track, but I like the idea of team prior opportunity. If a player is under pressure and dishes off a handball to a teammate he shouldn't get the benifit of 'no prior. Also, rules such as the 5m protected zone and obstruction of the 50m penalty are ridiculous and harsh and draw unnecessary negative attention to the umpires.
  6. Certainly backfired for us. Can't get numbers behind the ball. Struggle to set up defensively And here we were over summer thinking it would help us because we had Max!
  7. One win.... and a little matter of 37%!
  8. That'd be a first, old dee!
  9. Really? You should be on the FD match committee. Bet you thought diffferent ladt year when he was doing well. So many wind socks on Demonland, and so much wind
  10. Presumptive. VFL is not AFL. How'd he go last senior game he played?
  11. You mean like Hawthorn with Omeara, Tom Mitchell, Wingard, Impey, McEvoy and Gunston? Or like Collingwood with Beams, DeGoey, Adams, Hoskin Elliot and Varcoe?
  12. Old Dee, forgive me if you have mentioned this, but what did PJ say about the docklands option? Lots of space opp Costco, close to cbd and public transport, lots of building and infrastructure happening nearby. What are the impediments to this?
  13. Good info Mr Old. I appreciate your nuanced input into the discussion
  14. 13 disposals and 1 tackle? Surely you jest.
  15. You mean like Gawn, Harmes Tmac, none of which were high draft picks unlike Lever and Doedee?
  16. No it's not. Doesn't even border the suburb of Essendon. Strathmore is in between. Different postcode. More SWYL sweeping statements and alternative facts
  17. What the hell does "not naturally gifted" even mean? Does it mean that they aren't as good as other footballers on our list? Of course they're not. Is it that they weren't high draft picks? Or that they don't look as classy as Oliver or Salem? I'd say they are excellent role players who are still developing. They'll never be stars, but they are already showing some good value to the team. Happy with that.
  18. I must've seen a Demon player run under the kick and miss an easy mark about 6 times. Jeezus!
  19. Tmac at last. It's a simple game when a forward leads and the kicker kicks to advantage
