Yeah, except Cook looks like he's still 12. I think Howe could be our Riewoldt. I think we should unleash the cookie monster against GWS. I don't see the point in keeping these potentials in the VFL if they are passing all their KPI's. And we need a small forward. Sainters got Maleria (spelling) and Saad in one draft last year. We got Lawrence 2 years ago? The previous two have an impact now, Lawrence may not even make it. Wonna gone, Davey going. No smalls, no speed around our forward set up, no crumbers, no one stays down, no pressure defending in our forward line, no hope.

Although easier than the first half of our draw, I'm not looking at this and feeling inspired. I feel GWS will beat us, and with GC's seniors I see them beating us too. We might win round 21 against a tired team of youngsters. Eh call me negative, whatever. If we finish off on a measely couple of wins and miss out on an extra first rounder which we desperately need I will become more negative. Let's see how the seniors stand up against the Dons and Pies and we'll gauge just how much trouble this team is in personell wise.

You're living in the past, man, you're hung up on some clown from the SIXTIES, man!

I don't think the bitter emu understands how the internet works lol.. he called me a [censored], what a hero!

I can forgive developing players my ire is usually set on one or two. I think people know who I think needs to go. I actually think Morton was ok tonight and that's big for me. We NEED another small forward BAAAAD! How good was Jonesy and McKenzie! Tommy Mac.. I see a lot of positives tonight, not all doom and gloom. But I'm always upset after a loss, weekend ruined!

I will... at 3am every morning you wanka mwua!

Have another drink you bitter old man lol

Our passengers are weighing us down. Can't wait for that broom..

My Darling senses tingling.. Outside mid, Outside mid, small forward, small backman, rookie ruckman, Viney. But Sloonie- that's 6 spots! Damn straight it is son, damn straight!

We are the only ones who can make us pay over the odds- If he is only worth pick 5-10 and we use 3 then that is on our heads.

Or Viney could become disheartened with the dees for not picking him and his father might clear out his office.. but I like your hypothesis

Surely if it benefits their golden childeren the AFL will turn a blind eye. But then again they are all for integrity, aren't they?

Lol all this would be a non issue if we werent so [censored]. But such is MFC life. We need every step up we can get in drafts because we suck at them. I want Viney with a second round pick. And I want to make essendon use their first rounder on that daniher kid.

Awww look, global warming has provided that seal with a nice little ice chair! I blame Jack Watts for the Kardashians and maningacockle (spelling) disease.

As if we can't manufacture a way to worry GWS or GC out of it. Say we start talking about contract details that state we are under no obligation to pick Viney (even if they are fanciful) or start talking up the kids tipped to go 1 and 2. I am going to be mighty [censored] if we end up with pick 3 and have to use it on Viney when we could have used pick 20something. When are we going to get smart/ruthless? Why don't we get an advantage of F/S when a good one comes our way? I know the rules changed but Geelong picked up Ablett with a pick in the 30s. Well what about us? Where is our free ride?!

I have but wanted to keep the comments to myself as I don't want to come across as too much of a sniper. But isn't it a sad state of affairs when we commend a player for actually turning up to play for once. And by turning up to play I mean actually doing something during a game. I noticed his half hearted attempts at contested marks, his half hearted attempts at one handed tackles and his unwillingness to get his own ball was still prevelant. If he was at another club we would be laughing at his efforts. He is only in the team because there are no other options. If Wonna was still around Davey wouldn't be. I feel this could be his last season in the seniors.

Yeah ironic and sad that we are a ruckman feeder club for Collingwood!

My mistake, it osunded like that was what you were alluding to. I don't think we even have the option of matching an offer for Jamar. He is an unrestricted FA I think- if he wants to go we can't do anything about that and we will get measly compo for him. But it sounds like he doesn't want to go so non-issue. I think we need him until someone else is ready to step up and the timing might be right that someone else might be ready when Jamar is about to retire anyway. What has Sellar shown? I must have missed it.

If we can't win one until round 13- which looks highly likely- then we will be negligent not to enforce the tank. Even though I have been dead against it. There is too much to gain in this next draft. And we are still crap enough to need Viney with a second rounder. Interesting times ahead!

Bossdog I think Gonzo was being a little facetious. I don't care what anyone says- if you have an MCC membership without any support for the Melbourne Football Club you are not only selfish but you are an utter disgrace!

We are in no position to lose Jamar. You want to put the number 1 ruckman role on Martin's head? After one good season as a backup ruckman? No way. Can't rely on Spencil, Gawn or Fitzy. Sellar isn't a footballer's boot stud and if Clark gets moved to the ruck I will throw a temper tantrum! If free spaces and salary cap room is what you want- well Green, Davey and Macdonald say "howdy do!"

I haven't seen him for a while, but if he hasn't put on some considerable bulk I will dead set spew! I think he will be a gun though. Has the potential to be better than Darling.

Melbourne trades Moloney to Gold Coast for Bennell.

How am I supposed to enjoy Melbourne games without alcohol?
