    Wow......Eight threads about the Essendon crap........Might stop coming here for a while
  2. Played 11 games in his first year on the list......Often as the sub which equates to a quarter here and a quarter there. Did some very good things in matches and also panicked a few times as he got used to the tempo. I feel that he will be a very good player for us in the future. He is only nineteen.

    "Well son......We are trying to build a TEAM.....We want another big man up forward but we will do what is best for the team and the club and if that's another midfielder, well suck it up and play the best you can . You have played 20 games.....We know what we are doing." Please don't tell me we will kowtow to a bloke who has played just 20 games....No matter how good he is.

    Though out history....Man has needed Gods to try and see reasons behind the crops failing, the floods that ruined their towns, the droughts that left their families dying. They thought that if they could please their gods their could live a full life. It seems that nothing has changed since those faraway days. The world is so advanced these days with so many great inventions and innovations but we still fight about who's god is the greatest. If there is a god, he must be very disappointed in the human race.
  6. I still don't get why posters take a reported payment to a player as gospel.... As I have stated before only the player, his manager and the club KNOW how much a player gets. The media guess and some how it becomes a fact. As Roosy said "Don't believe all the media hype"....How about we just wait til trade week is over and then sh it can the club after we know who's doing what.

    Wow....I thought demonland was where everybody could state their opinion and not be personally insulted for having that opinion. It appears that Stuie does not get that same consideration.
  8. You are right Steve.........But you know Demonland.......If someone has a bit of a off year, Trade em.... Everybody says "Develop the players" but only give them one year.....If they can't be champ by then.....Cut them off the list OR Trade MacKenzie, M Jones etc for Pendlebury Ablett,Fyffe et al I hate the silly season.....It is about to come in two weeks and I have to read about all the wishful trades that have not a hope in hell of coming off. It has already started in the media and the finals are still two weeks away.
  9. I wouldn't get too excited about players wages......The money that players get is unknown except for the player, the club, the player manager All monies quoted in the media are complete guesswork unless you have a peek at their group certificate. Just all media hype

    And maybe it's a lesson that we shouldn't shoot our mouths off on the basis of a couple of games
  11. Oh please He was part of the reason for the Debt Demolition ie saving this club........Spent a huge amount of time organising fund raisers at the Dee's and casey. He played his football for Melbourne and Coached Freo into the finals for the first time in their history So please enlighten me that he has no AFL level traits, substance or relevance. Yes he may have made some mistakes(Who hasn't) but he put his heart and soul into the Melbourne Footy Club. It's so easy to sit behind a keyboard and knock people who have contributed to the club in ways you can only dream of. You only show your ignorance.

    Sorry....I'm not going to get into a religious argument with you but do you have any idea about the Islamic religion??? Or are you just going by the media reports of the extremists and terror groups???? And what do you mean by "Grown out of it"....Its not a childhood illness.

    Wow.......Just Wow.......

    The thing that gets me is that there are a lot of young people who die through accidents, illness, and other means. and they are all tragic.......How many footballers or other sportsmen and women have died at their respective sports? Does their game change because of it??....No I have found the media reports about Phil Hughes death over the top It is a tradedy but so are other young persons deaths who do not get the same coverage or reverence because they didn't play for Aust.
  16. I can't believe you guys are arguing over wether a player will play round 1 when we hav'nt even drafted him yet. Sorry.....Keep going...
  17. Bossdog replied to Redleg's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    You were doing well......Until the last one.....The brady bunch......OMG.
  18. Bossdog replied to Redleg's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    Bloody Hell....I forgot it was Guy Fawkes day yesterday.......Bonfire night with penny bungers ,tom thumbs cathrine wheels and the death of a few letter boxes Ahh good times when we were kids.
  19. I think I remember David Williams being delisted and was to be re drafted as a rookie after he was injured......Richmond then picked him up......Didn't work out for them but it could happen again....
  20. Pick 40 2010 Jacob Gilbee (G Coast) 6 games (prior to 2014 season) 2011 Tom Curran (Nth) 5 games 2012 Brodie Murdoch (StK) 0 games 2013 Jay Kennedy Harris(melb) 14 games(inc 2014) Hardly world beaters there at pick 40.....Just saying

  24. Bossdog replied to Redleg's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    I didn't go to one game this year OD.....Watched on tele or just got the scores on the computer I always thought soccer was frustrating and boring....well footy is becoming the same.....No goals in quarters or halfs , players that I really liked...Gone. I will remain a member but find going to the footy a bore.

    The way things are going, there will be club legends no more..... Free agency will kill it off Gone are the days that players stick by a club for better or worse and be remembered as a champion of the club I hate the way the AFL is at the moment....Great Hawthorn champs ie, Dunstan, Hudson, Bartlett at Richmond, Farmer and Goggin at Geelong All champions of their clubs Soon players will be called champs.....Not CLUB champs It's a sad state of affairs.
