  1. We will come out of the woodwork in droves once the team starts winning. The slopes will be empty .
  2. They tried that with Cale but the doctors refused to operate because his chest was too small and they couldn't find his heart.
  3. Old Dee-you will have to stop posting in the car,and turn down the stereo. Glad to hear you are well.I think we discussed insurance on this forum once so i take it you have some. Daisycutter-a French philosopher once said"I would rather die young than compromise by eating Margarine". Hope you are running on all chambers/valves soon.
  4. I agree but I watched him smash his way through the Cats mids to help give the Crows a Victory 2 weeks ago. I think we need Dale Thomas or Pendles the Demon. We cant train a talented young kid into an Melbourne mid in one year. It takes us at least three to teach them to fumble consistently.
  5. "We just want this investigation to be finished" "This is affecting a lot of peoples lives". Yeah well,, Suck it up Drug pusher.
  6. We are playing indirect football because we are too slow in attack. We need to run through the centre. The players are too lazy and unfit to run out wide and constantly switch. That is why Bailey was a moderate success compared to now Swift ball movement directly through the centre of the ground is the only way to win consistently. When the players run to the centre because we attack through the centre we will score more goals. A team with good skills can use the wings. A very average team like ours should learn to run though the centre in droves and kick to a target like Dawes or Fitzy,Watts,Hogan,Howe. We will have reasonable marking power but little skill or run in the next season. We may as well base a simple plan on direct football to a tall marking target in the centre and rove to it.
  7. Blease just gives us the odd vague hope of scoring a goal, which is nice in a game sometimes.
  8. Dont know about the Darwin effect but we deserved a Darwin award today.
  9. 6.Max Gawn 5.Colin Sylvia 4.N.Jones 3.Fitzy 2.Watts 1.Dawes
  10. Are you suggesting we should perhaps not play our best side at this late stage of the year?
  11. We need pace and skill . OUTS ;Byrnes ,Pederson,Clisby,Davey,Kent INS: Rodan,Jetta,Garland,Strauss,Terlich.(if injury permits) No point playing my first two outs ever again.These guys are both too slow. Clisby is tiny and Davey is not having a full dip.
  12. Just returned from a very unpleasant trip with the kids to Etihad. A Windy ,cold ,scrappy game turned into another display of umpiring incompetence in the first half matched only by our ineptitude in the second. Sat opposite an old North bloke on the train home who was whinging about how the recruiters at North have stuffed his club by recruiting only midfielders. All I got out of today is the knowledge that Max Gawn will be a star of the competition one day . Also this zoning off in defence thing doesn't work And we are a very ,very slow at all aspects of the game.
  13. The Kick the [censored] football properly Academy of Excellence.
  14. Hope he managed to get him drunk last night and keep him awake till sunrise. I'm sure as a Melbourne supporter, The Song FKA is only letting the young magpie stay as part of a community rehabilitation project I hope he counted the silverware and has cc tv in his house.
  15. External use potions will be looked on as minor compared with an injection program of untested muscle building compounds. Besides, Trenners is into puzzles. Not an evil bastard like Hird.

    GAME DAY

    I put 20 on at 16 to 1 for a win in a two horse race. If we are in it for the first 15 minutes we are in it for a long way. It's a big if but there are some midfield improvements happening with Max and Fitzy on the ball. I'm hoping for a massive input from Pedo to justify his career and contract. Go Redlegs.

    GAME DAY

    No rational reason to believe we can win today. Why not though? It's only Norf. Somebody smack Brent Harvey immediately . Get a good start-and who knows.
  18. "The Morton/Gysberts Academy "
  19. Graham Wood was a master of quick running between the wickets though . Ask Laird ,McCosker ,Darling,Dyson,Wessells and all the other guys he ran out.
  20. Just read that heart-warming article. Classic. What a struggle it is and continues to be.
  21. Great news-maybe we can get that pub in Albert Park for cheap-I hear it's still on the market.
  22. Our list? Jack Off? No -Jackoff. Fitzy Fits.
  23. Dont want to upset you deeflog but he will have the same size years as the rest of us. No olympics coming up so probably just the standard 365 days.
