Good lord, I just saw an ad during half time for dancing with the (alleged) stars with David Rodan in it.
-
Gee, Goldy is a bloody useful ruck. Gets a bit of it around the ground and snags a goal or 2.
-
Overs. They'd have to include their 1st rounder.

Why wouldn't Sam Blease want to join his best mate at GWS?
-
C'mon Roos, beat those Cats!
-
He'd feel right at home next to Jamar and Spencil then!

WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - HERITIER LUMUMBA
Moonshadow replied to Moonshadow's topic in Melbourne Demons
Ok, I'll bite. Currently, H is an improvement upon Grimes, Terlich, and Garland. Before this season we would have all included Jetta as well (except Saty, he's always correct). Comparing H to TMac and Dunn perhaps isn't apples with apples as they play on key forwards. Only Howe and Jetta have better disposal than H from that list and Roos has indicated Howe will be moved forward again as soon as next year. Howe and Watts have played back at times partly because the others lack the ability to hit any target by foot or hand. How many on that list have been AAs, averaged 20 disp this season, 22 the year before or came top 5 in 2013 B&F? We'll almost certainly lose Chip next year. IMO we need at least one key defender and two experienced running HBs next year. While Roos and crew know infinitely more about this than me, I'd consider an improvement to be 2 or 3 from Lumumba, Gwilt, Malceski, Frost and hopefully others. I wish we could attract better than that, but let's be honest, beggars can't be choosers. -

We haven't exactly got the whole AA list banging on our door hoping to get a game with us. I see guys like H and maybe even Gwilt as being perfect Roos projects, if we were to get them. -

Where's Nudge? -
And that same term could be used on most of our backline, just change it to "the ball has passed them by".
-
Isn't Ryder a FA as a result of the so called 'out clause' in his contract? Not sure. If so, he can go wherever he wants. The Mitch Clark rule has less leverage when it involves a FA.
-
Jeezus, what happened to the no dhead rule? Robinson? Honestly can't see it happening.
-
Has been hampered by injuries, but would be a significant upgrade from Gawn and Spencil. Jamar will struggle beyond next year. However priority seems to be mids and running half backs ATM.
-
As opposed to Turlich, TMac, Chip, Grimes, etc? Gwilt's disposal and decision making is better than their's IMO.
-
Lol these posters who say next or pass over each name as they come up. We are the laughing stock of the AFL with a terrible rebounding defence full of turn over merchants. Not saying I want Gwilt necessarily, don't know enough about him, but I fully back Roos and team to look at every possibility. If they go for Gwilt, there must be something in him that'll improve our list going forward.

A fair wealth of riches in that draft. We had many chances at getting it right that year. How disappointing. -
He wrecked every one of his chances don.

How long have you got dazzle? Gonna take a year or ten. -
Surely not a swap for Robinson. Please god no!
-
Yes, in stitches of laughter!

You'd give her something that her doctor would have to supply medication for.

Careful, could be your daughter Bitty.

Wasn't he an AA? Premiership player. Averaged 20 disp per game this year, 22 the year before. 5th in their B&F last year. Yeah, he's a hack. -
Correct, but condoning capital punishment means they condone the person being killed. I'm not religious at all, yet I have no problem with Houli's personal beliefs. That does not mean I agree with him being vilified, which is what h_h did.
-
Correct, he did not vilify someone, but he condoned vilification to anyone on the basis of religion. The words "fair game" to me indicates he finds it perfectly acceptable, and the fact it was in response to an article about BH would cause serious offence to him or other people of faith.
