Joel Selwood was amazing in his first year. If Salem gets anywhere near that by year's end I'll be happy.

I hear Christian Salem shaved with a chainsaw from age 11.

Seeing some our big blokes crash through and hurt opposition means bruise free football is a thing of the past for MFC. Love watching Dawes tackle, Viney go hard and Pedo throw himself into the contest.

I used to play against East Burwood in the mid 80's. They wore shorts and jumpers then. Interesting tactic DC. Skins vs tops, eh!

Have you seen the size of him Biff? The only thing you could beat him at is Scrabble, and even Enyaw could do that.

^^^ that was such a extraordinary and intelligent post you had to edit it! Well done Einstien

As far as paraphrasing goes, that's quite a stretch Bitty. Using your teacher's artistic license to full effect. I think he actually said "I refuse to join any club that would have me as a member". My favourite Groucho Marx line is "I never forget a face, but in your case I'll be glad to make an exception", or maybe "I remember the first time I had sex - I kept the receipt"

Clearly correct posture was not one of their finest lessons Biff.

I too knew someone who worked on the current emblem. Not that closely. But he knew I was a Melbourne supporter, was not proud to show me the finished product. Indicated that they preferred it pared down, but that the directive was to include the symbols that were offered by the club. Ours is the busiest looking logo/emblem in the AFL IMO. Those indicating that the resources put into this are at the expense of the FD are kidding themselves. PJ is all over the books and wouldn't change too much unless it was financially prudent and viable. The brand helps sell the club, a poor brand does this poorly. If it is done well, it will pay itself back. Couple this with a rise up the ladder and our marketing will proffer.

He's got a cute bumm.

Thanks! I'm an ideas man.

The current emblem is a dogs breakfast of symbolism. New one should definitely have a cartoon pic of Roosy with horns on his head. All class.

Do you know for a fact that any money being put into a new emblem will be at the expense of the football dept or are you just ranting?

Trade for another quality mid. Treloar maybe. How about Swallow from GC? Yes, I know GC are finals bound, but a big bag of $ might tempt him. Dylan Sheil?

I saw a faint MFC emblem watermarked on the front of the home jumper a few weeks back. Was quite large in the middle on the 'point' of the red V. I noticed it when watching player interviews on the ground after the match. Anyone else see this?

Dawes in. Gawn out. Unless any other niggles or illnesses occur during the week. Toump did just enough to keep his spot IMO. Unlucky for Gawn, he does need a run of games though. Roos likes team stability.

Is that some sort of new yoga pose? Can't be comfortable. Brings a new meaning to the term 'tree hugger'.

Don't know what you've been watching arrow, but Riv has had a good year, on the whole.

You'll have to pardon BBO for not getting back in a timely manner Maple. He and Biff are busy tearing Frank Burns/Stuie a new one on the Clarkson thread.

Maple, usually you make sense. The increasing number of posts you make on this thread and that this one makes little sense leaves me to believe either you are on the drink or you and frog are siblings. The former clearly is the better option of the two. Perhaps you should consult "Biff Biff" or "Uncle Bitter" to address your level of sobriety. They'll tip you over the edge, if nothing else.

Those would be difficult to muster dc.

Wherever Cameron goes (assuming it is not us) his $1mill p/a price tag may cause salary cap pressure and push out other players that might be to Roos' liking.

Wha?? Not a good idea to drink heavily during the day Maple

Like the Brisbane and Freo jumpers. GC and GWS are terrible. Ours is more subtle, not badly over the top or cheap looking.

Honestly Bitty, this post shows you have way too much time on your hands and are ridiculously self obsessed. I would have thought that the term "thoughtless pervert" pretty much sums you up in two words.
