  1. Hyperbole, blowhards and smart alecs are commonplace. Post counts are irrelevant. But keep at it you.
  2. Never a bigger crock of unfounded [censored] posted. And that's saying something
  3. Paddy looks like he lives off a diet of burgers and fries. He's a big unit. That was a hard hit to the back of the guy's ribs whilst he had his arms up marking. At least 1 week.

    Mattjm was watching re-runs of The X-Files, Red.

    Not really matt. Ran a lot though. Been running since he left us

    Did we get Clary via F/S?

    Mono, it didn't stop them letting the Dogs get away with plenty of dubious handballs in the GF last year, nor during this season so far.
  8. We've lacked leadership for many years. Jones has been our best leader over the last 5-6 years, but many others should have stood up. Dunn wasn't a leader. Don't think Dawes was, but he wasn't on the park enough to lead. Vince a leader, no. Watts, no. TMac, no. ATM Lewis is the best we have. I've banged on in other threads about our opponent's leaders the last two weeks and how they inspired their team to get over the line. Fyfe, Sandy, Cotch, Martin, Riewoldt. so who are our future leaders that will make a difference? Oliver? Stretch? Salem?

    Yep, he has an amazing ability to know where everyone is in the contest, which direction they are facing and their momentum so as to put the ball to their direct advantage and away from an opponent. That dish off to Garlett last night where Jeffy streamed in to kick the goal is but one example. Often this happens in a fraction of a second and when he himself is travelling at speed, making the task all the more amazing.

    Any feedback on this @dazzledavey36?
  11. Can't help injuries. Can help suspension. Hard to judge importance when the guy got himself suspended. And here I was at trade time thinking he was the smart leader we needed....

    Spencer down, Smith ribs, others hobble like walking dead... I take it back Red. You have a good point.
  13. So what's the rules for international rookies and (if he's good enough) does this fella fall within that?
  14. Moonshadow replied to Redleg's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    Our most optimistic year for over a decade, well for some anyway. Cool vent Red. Way to go.
  15. Nice kid. Good prospect. Pity we'll be nowhere near pick 1 at the end of this year
  16. He might have them, but he won't have the only copy. No doubt the club and Dank have some or all the dirt. Btw, could there ever be a more appropriate name than 'Dank'?
  17. Yeah, I too find it hard to believe all these people who claim innocence and blame others yet don't reveal the records or any other info that might clear them. Dank, the Weapon, Bomber, Hird, the players etc. Can't have it both ways. BOMBER, IF YOU ARE INNOCENT THEN SHOW US WHAT YOU'VE GOT, ALL OF IT, OTHERWISE CRAWL BACK INTO YOUR HOLE AND SHUT UP!
  18. That big mark he took at the front of the pack against Carlton (I think) gave a taste of what he's capable of. Has a good reach and good hands.
  19. Weid needs patience and support. He'll make it. Needs more muscle and further development both at Casey and in the seniors. Has good hands, tries to position himself well at the front of packs (despite getting outbodied), has a good set shot routine and can kick well either foot. Weid wont be the competative beast that Hogan is, probably wont have the tank to do what he does, but he compliments Hogan well. Weid's strengths will be his leading patterns, reach and good hands, and goal awareness. Looking forward, I'd rather have him than Paddy.

    Who's foggy?

    Ah yes, a sucker born every day!

    Sans skin? What's the local custom Biffen?
  23. Saw that and spat out my drink at his stupidity. Find it hilarious that these 'professionals' make such definitive statements with no basic research of the facts. Pity he's not paid on par to reporting accuracy.
  24. That would make me both laugh and cry
