  1. Welcome aboard Guido. I hope your stay with us is long and fruitful. That is probably the first and last time anyone on this site will ever say anything civil to you.
  2. We just got rid of one BM who could kick long and couldn't get the ball. Here we go again
  3. Can the Mods make sure the FD get our threads. Just to enlighten them on the attributes of Farren Ray. I know they are waiting on our approval before taking any further action in trade week.
  4. According to the "Bummers" on SEN this morning. Moloney tarted himself around the clubs at the end of last year hoping to be picked up. Disappointedly no-one wanted him. He obviously only targeted Victorian clubs. Good Bye and Good Riddance
  5. If you don't want to plagerise the veterans right Make a donation to Remembrance Day. Buy a Poppy for 11th Nov. In fact all demonlanders remember our fore fathers, please buy a poppy for Nov. 11. The money goes to a good cause. Mods I do apologise for using this forum to raise money for the Vet. Community, but they do deserve it for the unpaid and unloved work they do.
  6. Geez we could out do them easily. Bate, Cook Martin & Morton. All of Melbourne's tough Speed Machines. For Dawes We get rid of dead wood x 4 to receive dead wood x1 win win win.
  7. And Morton, Gysberts, Moloney ++++ in exchange for Brock. I now duck for cover........
  8. State of Play. What happened today? I feel like we are sitting on our hands watching the world go by. No action for about 30 hours. Pull your fingers out DEES we need real info to talk about not just rumours.
  9. Right again Jordie. The page has been removed. Why would I ever think the AFL would make a mistake? Mods can you remove this inane thread from the site?
  10. Is that the same heart condition half the Melbourne side has suffered from?
  11. I'm a diabetic BB, what has black jelly beans got to do with it? I can understand red ones. By the way BB can you add another cliche to your blog. You never hear the bullet that kills you.
  12. Why have we got this dude on our web site? Pie re-signed and primed 10th October: Rodney Eade tells AFL.com.au that recontracted Pie Paul Seedsman is ready to step up in 2013 Related: Magpies lock in Goldsack
  13. Yeah. Your right? Wines is not a game breaker, he is over the hill he's 18 ffs
  14. Agree BB but, I think with one slight correction. They would have worked a way around it about 6 months ago. That's their job after all.
  15. Good work. The become a part of the Melbourne "J" curve
  16. Nett Gain? Well we gain Viney, Byrne & about 6 rumours = 8 But, we have lost Green, Lawrence, Jurrah and about another 7- 9 OOC to go plus FA & RFA. =14 I think we have to trim our total list by about 2 (could be totally wrong) Therefore I reckon we must sign 4 of the OOC and FA's on the list to give us a Nett Gain. Who could they be? My Guess is Rivers, Dunn, Petterd & Bennell
  17. Being a Canberrian if that's what you call yourself. Someone who does charts would suit you. So line graphs would be of interest only between December and February. Parliament is in recess, all the drafts are done and dusted and the pre-season comp hasn't started. A good filler.
  18. I wouldn't be upset to take Wines at 4, but would prefer Toumpas or O'Rourke if available. I would be even more pleased if the "MODERATORS" would turn their clocks back an hour. I think they moved the time for daylight saving for an hour without realising the digital network does it automatically.
  19. Name the source Eugene. Otherwise it is just another unfounded rumour.
  20. We have been the butt of all jokes for a long time. The way we have gone about our resurrection of a totally dysfunctional club since "186" must be admired. The plan has obviously been to set training, performance and off field behavioural criteria If these cannot be met you are on the not required list. A list of types of players if not the names of players were targeted as must gets. People keep saying that we are basket cases because so many players are wanting to walk. The truth is these players are running before they are de-listed. At this stage we have Byrne & Viney with the possible listing of a few others which I wont mention because all is just rumour until signed. let's just say that in the last 18 months Melbourne have been the most Proactive I can remember in a long time. So to answer your thread. No we have not shot ourselves in the foot.
  21. Yeah right. So GWS get 1, 2 & 4 Melbourne get 3 So you reckon GWS will give up the supposed 3rd best player, so that their good mates at Melbourne can grab him.
  22. WE don't have a second rounder. We picked up some Kid named Viney. 3rd rounder would be more like it.
  23. Great outcome Dees. Firmly believed all along that GCS wouldn't take him at pick 2. There are others there that appeal better pick 2 to 7 Just think of Toumpas, Grundy, O'Rourke, Wines I'm salivating already. I'll have to log off and take a nice nap.
