I think the MFC should ask for Brayshaw and Cerra for Hogan which Freo would not entertain but if they do then our midfield becomes better in the long run and we could use Weid's as his replacement

At least with Usain Bolt you will get a crowd just to watch him run and he is over 195 cm

If winning a premiership means a poor draft pick bring it on

'Then we can walk away from the offer and West Coast have huge salary cap problems, we just don't fall into the trap of giving West Coast anything.

When I was at Melbourne Football Club Ray Jordan was the reserves coach and his criteria was the play need a little C..T in them to make it at AFL football, Players who were soft and did not have this fell by the wayside all the players mentioned above had ability but lacked that ingrediant.

I think the trip to Darwin took more out of him than anyone would have admitted, as you get older long trips and the heat would be more taxing on the aging body.

When was the last time Melbourne had 2 goal Kickers in the top 10 in the AFL?

Casey won by 8 points

Gaff will cost nothing if he chooses us whilst Prestia was not a free agent and Melbourne had burnt its first picks, therefore there can not be a comparison between the 2.

Allen was a mature age recruit and was sensational braking goal kicking records for the league and the Demons but his stay was too brief I believe if he had stayed healthy the Demons would have won premierships in his era. Yze was a good player but soft, Oliver is at the beginning of his football career and the upside is huge. A comparison is very difficult but my football gut says Clayton Oliver will be remembered as the best number 13 to every play the game in the league.

He has no depth in his kicking and should not be in the team He misses too may getable shots as well.

Statistics can be read many different ways but the distance the ball travels from hand and foot can also be misleading the other statistic and probably more important is the scoring assists and efficiency of disposal for instance a player who handballs to another play 10 meters away he kicks the ball 50 meters to another player on your side is better than a 60 meter kick which goes to the opposite team. They are both good players but one has been measured on his whole career whilst the other has not even played 3 full season but has won the best and fairest at his club in his second season, when did Judd win the best and fairest of West Coast?

Hawking had ALS which is a different disease and I have a friend who has MND and he says Neale is doing ok because he has lasted over 5 years.

I think the club could sell the back of the shorts to a sponsor for a large sum?

They should try to get the largest Melbourne based company BHP

If only he had been born to play with the 1950's MFC he would have won 3 Brownlows and had 7 premierships to his name.

I went to the MFC web site and there is no No 27, maybe you should refresh the copy of the MFC web site which is stored by IE

List Size For 2013, all clubs (*except Gold Coast and GWS Giants) now operate under the following list sizes. Primary List Size Category A Rookies Category BRookies Total Rookies (Maximum) Total 38 (Minimum) 6 3 9 47 39 5 3 8 47 40 (Maximum) 4 3 7 47 * Gold Coast Suns: Primary List 42; Rookie List 9 * GWS Giants: Primary List 44-50; Rookie List 9 This is from the AFL web site melbourne have 40 on the main list and 4 rookies unless stefan has not played AFL for at least 3 years in any form then he is eligible for the rookie B list otherwise there is no room.

Some judges have him at selection 22 are they right? If so we did well at 36 to get him we have to back our Football Department who will never get it right 100% of the time. The Football Department will always have a comparisons like Parish / Oliver and Curnow /Weideman where their judgement is dependent on who has the final say in the selection?

Probably 30 years ago a player who was less than 178 cm (5 foot 10 inches) and less than 78 kg would not get a look in at AFL clubs because they were considered to be too small but last 2 years the mindset has changed by coaches and smaller players who put on tackle pressure and dispose of the ball well have become the norm not the exception. Both Richmond and Western Bulldogs have created the current trend with smaller quick players playing a roll in the forward line where tackling pressure has allow the ball to remain in the forward half putting pressure on the defenders to make mistakes which result in scoring opportunities. I am not saying Spargo will make it or not but the Football Department has selected him and we should back their judgement for the time being before criticizing them. If you were told that Charlie Spargo was a top 5 - 10 selection before you knew how tall he was you would compliment the Football Department on their astute selection.

"We got who we wanted" means "Player we expect to get at that pick was gone"

Smith will be upgraded with a pick 64 beyond 47 which we still have. We will be drafting 4 players along with Smith.

I know this is my 4th attempt but is Q6 Lynden Dunn

Q3 Clayton Oliver

Q4 Simon Buckly
