  1. Again, or did someone forget to update last week's list?
  2. I guess Justin Bobby is a massive [censored], which doesn't really help
  3. Still can't answer my questions, can you?!
  4. You refused to answer me the first time around, so I'll ask again. What's it about? And what does Richmond have over Melbourne? Answer those questions clearly or enough with the rubbish innuendo.
  5. For anyone who ever watched The Hills (I'm going to guess nobody here has), it also reminds me a lot of a character on the show who used to be called Justin Bobby. I find myself just saying Ricky Bobby whenever he has the ball, guess it's a habit.
  6. Gysberts is just another level of talent. He is a freak. His hands in close are as good as I've seen. As good as Scully's.
  7. I think Grant Thomas was slightly taking the [censored], and also said Tom strikes him as the sort of player who would want to focus 100% on his game preparation and not get distracted by contract negotiations, which could be why he hasn't signed yet or made a decision. Gary said he thinks Tom hasn't made his mind up yet. Barret talked poo and Hutchy said very little. No mention of what Lynch said on The Couch earlier on. Biggest load of horseshit since the call about Stynes telling Bailey Tom's gone after the Collingwood game. Fail!
  8. You just need to calm right down please B)
  9. I agree with you that player agents shouldn't be media figures and shouldn't be commentating on games. It's a ridiculous conflict of interest, but it has nothing to do with Scully's contract situation and that is the only thing anyone gives a toss about right now.
  10. In 13 years of going to the footy week in week out, I have never in my life been so disgusted by supporters' behaviour... and I've sat in the Port Adelaide cheer squad at AAMI Stadium before during a game where Melbourne won the free- kick count!!! I'm all for loud, passionate, slightly psychotic supporters, but to freely scream out the C word multiple times during games when you are surrounded by little kids, and then abuse a man battling cancer, is not fair game and it is not OK. Absolutely shocking. Probably one rung below racial abuse.
  11. Mate, you offering advise to Lynch on how to handle his clients and their contract situation is laughable. Do you think Lynch is stupid? He would have been prepared for the Scully questions and his answers were definitely pre-prepared. He said what he said because it is either the truth, or he is trying to get a rise out of GWS. Either way, it wasn't him just pissing into the wind and it certainly wasn't derelict. Pickering didn't need to play the Ablett situation because he knew GC were offering him a sick amount of money which Geelong couldn't get near and so he knew there was no point playing both parties. The Ablett situation and the Scully situation are completely different.
  12. It is a weird pleasure of mine to watch a winning game one quarter a night in the week following a match. Quarter 2 is the go tonight. Definitely excited to see that Jordie tackle again. Yes, being a Melbourne supporter sadly consumes far too much of my time. I just spent 20 minutes debating whether or not we are likely to play on Sat night in Round 24 and whether that will ruin my birthday plans (stupid floating draw!!!). So sad.
  13. Well he has said something, so what now?
  14. But Scully isn't Ablett. Pickering couldn't say optimistic because he wasn't. The fact Lynch said that could mean one of two things; he is either been told by Scully that he wishes to stay at Melbourne all things considered, or he is saying it to try and push GWS' offer even further (or indeed prompt them to give Tom an offer, which I believe they are yet to do).
  15. As opposed to "we will deal with this situation at the end of the year" and "I'm not going to discuss this issue until the end of the season" and "we are going to have to weigh up all the options".
  16. Interesting tactic. Bid is with MFC. Time for GWS to make their next move.
  17. Agreed. We need at least one fresh pair of legs. Blease, given he has plenty of dash and has been close to selection for a couple of weeks now, could be a good replacement for MacDonald. I definitely wouldn't play Joel if he isn't 100% fit. Don't think we can afford to carry someone on half fitness when everyone will be struggling after 3 six day breaks. In: Blease Out: MacDonald (inj.) Morton into the 22, and sub could be either Bennell again, Strauss or Nicholson. Someone with yet another burst of speed who can help us carry the ball in the last quarter, remembering that the Dogs have a short prep week too. I'd be very careful with Tappy. Soft tissue injuries, particularly ones suffered first time around, should be treated slowly and with extreme caution. Don't need this to develop into a chronic issue. Given we have a bye after this week, there is no rush. He can have 2 weeks at Casey first.
  18. I would hope that if any poster ever so much as makes even a slightly racially abusive comment towards a player or another poster, that they are banned for life. And I know they will be. Besides, it's been a long time since I've seen anyone here abuse a player or coach in a completely unacceptable manner. Generally it's just the same old, 'clueless', 'soft, 'rubbish'. Don't think that even rates on the same scale of racially vilifying someone!
  19. Absolute moron and an utter disgrace. I'd have banned him for the rest of the season. What a hero, racially abusing an opponent. Deserves to get roughed up badly upon his return.
  20. Yet our record at the SCG is pretty decent, given how shite we've been in the last few years. We gotta learn to suck it up and play well outside of the MCG. I will spew if we lose to Port at AAMI in round 24!
  21. I hope you reported that. Look I'm a fair [censored] at the footy, but there are some things which are totally unacceptable. Racial abuse being one of those things.
