Caroline Wilson's descent into gutter journalism
cowboy_from_hell replied to titan_uranus's topic in Melbourne Demons
I just read robbo's "Big story" in the HUN. Boy oh Boy Woweee! What a breaking story. -
Caroline Wilson's descent into gutter journalism
cowboy_from_hell replied to titan_uranus's topic in Melbourne Demons
Yeah, remember last time he started to advertise the HUN's breaking story and it turned out to be a anonymous source who said he had heard someone else had heard that we have dropped players to lose. I think it was supposedly at a Canberra function. That story was the worst article I have ever seen and it was made worse by robbo banging on the day before on 360 that the HUN had huge news. Pffft. HUN=Knobs. -
It would be bad for business to spill our guts on every past mistake. We need to show strength not concentrate on our past failures. "We stuffed up picks,tanked and haven't developed our players. Now Please sign up as a member." That's a great sell. Furthermore we can't and won't comment on the tanking issue. Why give the AFL any ammo they need to sanction us? Do we deserve answers? Yes. Should we get them though? I think not.
-
If any sanctions were to come I just want them to hurry up so we can move on. Our list isn't great but we are lucky it's young so if draft picks are taken we won't be completely stuffed. We will just be a pretty ordinary team in that time and I'm quite used to that.

I have no drama with the red leg seats. I sit more behind the goals and my 6 year old daughter comes to some games and it is a friendly area. The best part is the seats are a stone throw from gate 4 so within a couple of minutes of getting to the g I'm already sitting with a beer.
-
Tippet will probably end up a giant and no sanctions will come his way. The integrity of the A.F.L will be upheld.

I want wines. In regards to having too many inside mids I think that is crap. Players aren't all stupid if they see jones/viney/wines take possession of the ball they will run and spread. Players like Morton and bennell would wait on the outside hoping we would gain possession. They would leave the task of getting the pill to others which would result in us not getting enough first ball usage. The best mids are complete mids not inside or outside but both eg:Watson. That's what we are after. Not a clearance king like Beamer who prided himself on one stat but complete mids. Jones/viney/JT/wines may give us a chance.

Vikings got whooped. We were found out big time. Ponder had another lack lasture game but Peterson is just a beast of a man. 5-3 is still a good record but with the bears and packers looking good the playoffs are going to be hard to get to. Still a happy Viking fan though last year we finished with a 3-13 record so anything is better then that.

Tim Harrington's position as "List Manager"
cowboy_from_hell replied to Watts Jurrah Dunn?'s topic in Melbourne Demons
Agree. Harrington finds the players that a coach wants. Bailey wanted outside runners who have failed as football players at our club. The bailey era is being smashed to pieces as it should be. It is not the Harrington era. -
4 wins last year. Drastic changes were needed and they have just begun. I have wanted the axe to be swung and it has. Morton,gys and martin were de listed in my view and it doesn't bother me at all. Swing away mark neeld.
-
Pick 88 sucks but at least Melbourne supporters can be guilt free when booing Morton from now on.
-
Yes I finally get to see the Vikings but I'm happy to watch josh freeman too I think he is a damn good QB. Ponder should get some good numbers today the bucs secondary is pretty ordinary and if that fails we will just give it to Peterson he never fails.

WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - DAVID RODAN
cowboy_from_hell replied to Demon Head's topic in Melbourne Demons
My god there will be a lot of nervous Melbourne players who are out of contract right now. If a bloke who is 29 with banged up knees is needed then you know neeld isn't happy with the list. -
Those lions are in a lot of trouble. I know the NFC north is a tough division but I didn't see them being last. Should be a easy win for green bay this week and Jennings may return this week or next. Your of fence hasn't missed him much though.

Latest murmurings of a crazy time
cowboy_from_hell replied to Tolstoys Nudge's topic in Melbourne Demons
I'd take all those picks but wouldn't use 28 on pedo. I can handle 33 for Martin then passed on for ray. North are dreaming if they want 28 for a vfl player. The same could be said of us wanting 33 for Martin. -
Vikings aren't in much form at the moment ponder had 8 completions with 2 picks. The bears defense would tear us apart and we can't go toe to toe with that offense of green bay. I pulled up very stiff from footy glenferrie oval was rock hard. I'm out with general soreness for the next six months. Those bomber boys try so hard and are starting to get lippy on the field. Might see if clay Matthews is a demonland member he could come in handy next year.

I'm with you macca go lions. You must be getting confident about the packers they look pretty good. I think your blokes [censored] Houston off.

Latest murmurings of a crazy time
cowboy_from_hell replied to Tolstoys Nudge's topic in Melbourne Demons
I'm not totally against getting pedo but do we need him as a starter or is he a depth player? With Dawes as a full time forward you would think Mitch is the second ruck. So is pedo being looked at as another forward? -
Forum Footy - Sunday, 21 October
cowboy_from_hell replied to rollinson 65's topic in Melbourne Demons
After a solid debut last year I reviewed my game this year and I think I was attempting a cale Morton style of game. I ran and pranced around but i couldn't get that oval shaped thing in my mits. Still a good day a massive thanks to biffen who's delivery was top notch and cheers to rollo and jack for their efforts. Gotta thank Clint bartram too a class act and I could see little heart shapes growing in biffen's eyes with every word that Clint spoke. -

Can we concentrate on ray and if we can't get pedo so be it? I don't see a need for pedo as much as ray. -
Latest murmurings of a crazy time
cowboy_from_hell replied to Tolstoys Nudge's topic in Melbourne Demons
You can't win with some blokes in the media. The same people who give it to us for getting rid of Bruce and junior then give it to us for getting some senior bodies in. -
Vikings win in unconvincing style. Thank god for Peterson who ran for 150+ yards. Ponder doesn't have much form at the moment. He went the longest out of any starting QB to not throw a pick and now he can't stop throwing them. I need the bears to lose but I can't see that happening. Anyone watch the Houston Baltimore game?

Round 1, 2013 Melbourne v Port Adelaide @ MCG
cowboy_from_hell replied to wattsup's topic in Melbourne Demons
Playing port round 1 is not good. If we win which we should I will drink too much and start running my mouth stating we are a top 8 certainty. If we lose I will drink too much and claim the year is over already. -
Good luck to riv still think we needed him

Would be funny if Watts and Morton come down and they ask if anyone on here hangs sh!t on them. We would all collectively shake our heads like little kids and then say it's not us it's Range Rover.
