Barney Rubble

Would make a very good leader, he is articulate and could communicate at all levels. The guys would know exactly what the message meant.

Why don't we give Jack, Nasher and assoc. a holiday. Nothing is going to happen for a week. See if we can all tune out of D'Land.

He was a pick 60 odd in his draft and ha played 12 games. Why on earth would you want to get him for any less than a 3rd round. Adelaide want a 2nd round because they don't have one. Offer something more crows and we talk.

Ling has only taken on a part time role with the Kangas Cameron Ling taking on a part-time leadership consultant role. I think he is testing the water at someone else's expense. He will then decide if the time is right for him to get involved in coaching.

McDonald panics with the ball in his hands because we don't have a midfield that can run to spaces so he can off load a handball or kick. He then has to go for 2nd or 3rd options. It is not always his fault.

I think Ling was the one we wanted, but said he wanted more time in the media. Maybe to come on this time next year. We could only hope. I think it could be a good strategy. Wait and see if there is improvement in the first 12 months under Roosy. If there isn't then we are in deep shite. If there is improvement then watch the assistant coaches come running.

mmm! sounding better jack. Shiel & Tyson for 2 and Blease to reunite with his ol buddy. Can't mention his name. It makes me want to spew!

Mahoney has already said there doesn't look like a trade will be done for a single player. So that rules out shiel

If Longmire returns to vic it will be to coach the ROOS We might then get Brad Scott.... pffttt

You all overate Jones. Take a look at dream team points. He doesn't make it in the top 50 midfielders. For memory I think he was in the 80's. therefore doesn't rate a 9 not even a 7. He was our best so that shows you what the rest would have rated. How do I rate them. I don't

Be Patient. AFL.com.au understands Melbourne is determined to ensure that the club gets the best candidate to fill the job rather than limiting the field to those available in 2014.

Back to square one.

If the Crows are considering this to get a lower pick than 30 to get Polec. Why wouldn't we just use compo pick or pick 20 to grab Polec instead. After all we have grabbed Clark who wanted to go home to WA. Melbourne is a lot closer to Adelaide than Brisbane.

http://www.afl.com.au/news/2013-10-10/jamar-reports-wrong I'm not a happy little vegemite anymore.

Who a player nominates as a preferred destination means Jack shite. The clubs will trade to suit themselves. He will go where the best option is for Hawthorn.

I would like him to set up a "Demon Academy" along similar line to what he did with the swans. It would almost take us back to the days when we had Reserves , U19's and U17's A group of selected kids who are on a scholarship,but still linked to their TAC club. They can use the club facilities and get development support. Edit Typo

I'm really interested to see what as trade bait this opens up. GWS certainly need a big body. Lions if the lose Longer. Pies, Hawks. Offering Pick 20 with Jamar could open up a lot of different scenarios. Shane Savage, Dylan Shiel But it wouldn't surprise if they have someone else in the back of their mind. Trade time for the Dees is only just starting to move.Most of the other clubs have shown their hand. We will pounce next week.

Now I'm a happy little vegemite. Make it happen boys.

Jack, he would be the perfect fit. He knows the words to the song and he doesn't really need to wait 10 weeks to sing it.

Sounds about right. Jetta might be the right option.

You maybe able to swing Shuey and Gaff with pick 2 and 2 second rounds or maybe pick2, 20 & some discard that is still on the list.

You're Dreamin. Forget them giving us pick 6. That 3way deal is a NO DEAL

from the trade link 2.59pm: The Lions move to deny that ball magnet Tom Rockliff is on the trade table. Speculation has linked Rockliff with a move to Melbourne in exchange for the Demons' No.2 draft pick. I know it's slow news but D'land is very slow

What? Don't you think the Pres. knows anything about football

There was talk of another bomber I think it was Travis Colyer but can't confirm. Has anyone heard similar? Ignore the above just noticed the thread about 2 bombers heading our way
