Errr... you can also trade for picks. Don't assume that it is that cut and dried.

Hmmmmmm... http://www.theage.com.au/victoria/bulldog-liberatore-quizzed-over-drug-offences-20120806-23pda.html

doesn't the coach tell players that? Why was CS so disliked at other clubs?

Someone fill me in please... Tigers and Freo friends of mine claim CS was a disaster for their clubs. What has he done in the past that is so impressive that makes the club want to keep him on? Most here either rate him or hate him.

Yep. Works hard and gets angry, wants the ball. Plenty of others with far more skills could feed off this attitude. Good for depth. Might just surprise us in the next couple of years if he's still around.

You're not comparing apples with apples there, dazz. Different type of player, different role. I'd also suggest that Fletcher has infinitely more strength than Gys or Morton.

For his size, Howe is certainly a very good grab. More of a running leap mark. Mitch Clark can take a good contested mark too, but with more body work in the contest.

I think it's fair to say that should they survive contact negs, trade week, etc some of these guys are in for a very big pre season by Misso to get a tank and build up a frame. Edit... I like the idea of eating 2 roast choose for lunch. However if I did that, I would not have quite the same frame as a footballer! Probably like half a doz beers with it too.

Ronald Dale might make a comeback. If only we could do a father/son but with a clone.

Yeah, but about a third of patrons at that burger joint do the same, Cowboy.

Because winning develops culture. Constant losing destroys morale. Watching Hawks vs Cats tonight and seeing 2 clubs desperate to win makes me want to stand up and scream support. But, alas, it's not my club playing...

Did they throw a big bag of cash over CS' head for Howe to take a big hanger? Couldn't he hang onto it?

Worse things could happen. Hell, the Poms won 2 gold last night. Shocking.

So does Mark Jamar, Clint Bartram, Ro Bail and the Pencil.

Really good post. Gives me hope that next year will not be another anus horribilus. Fark it's hard to be a Melbourne supporter at the moment. Thank you.

I'm guessing that The Turtle will be feeling every bit the fool ATM. He's all foot in mouth. If it isn't twitter, then it's on the crap couch.

This^ And dare I say it, I would think any future priority picks might go to struggling interstate club, not to a club in a city where more AFL teams exist than it can arguably support.J

Good call. He was no star, but certainly a very handy player for the Blues. Terrible kick, strong mark and gave his all on match day.

I reckon if the club had a similar poll on Demonlanders, there would be few left here to post at season's end. Ridiculous thread.

I'll happily join that club!

This is very very boring. Move on and stop wining.

Out: MFC In: Casey FC

Yes. Gys would be wise to chain himself to Jones and one or two others from October to March. Do the hard training they do. Build up his body and tank and learn, learn, learn off them.

Let's get Bruce, Ooze and Cheney back as well! As the Blues Bros said... we're getting the band back together.

I thought he recently re-signed with GC? Two years, wasn't it. Why would he do that and then leave?
