    Would need to be a recognised govt approved offset training program Could incorporate acclimatisation training in the mines and additional Northern Territory presence as part of subsidised partnership bonus. May also need some rehabilitation and education outcomes to achieve the philanthropic nature of his give aways.

    Its great that you blokes are keeping your finger on the pulse even when away with that sort of dedication explained to our players their efforts and intensity may improve. Get the job done over there(nuptials)and return refreshed and renewed to get the list sorted out. Dont care how many poms yanks or refugees you source as long as they add balance to the list. Await return with anticipation Oh and do enjoy the vicarious tourist role provided from your outlines keep up the good work thanks

    Have we stumbled on the faceless men behind the dees While RL and WJ are taking an extensive wedding break all trading done by MFC ceases We can only wait to see the expenses claim for this wedding when the signed forms for the internationalised Demon recruits are lodged and amid a flurry of reporters their feet hit the tarmac at Melbourne Keep it under wraps with coded talk of bananas while letting the mainstream press divert itself with imaginings of Buddys contract The next headline Melbourne surprises with foreign legion tipped to take flag

    Thanks BF on TV I thought they were doggies Red white and Blue Now I have another team to support through finals although it is a pity about Melbourne (Storm)

    Its a grand old flag Milawa version was not only sung for the senior victory reported previously But I was informed last night that the Milawa football and netball teams won every grand final at every level in the league last week. The 4 netball teams included teams that had not lost a game for the season and the under 17,s was the only flag they didnt win as they have a combined whourouly milawa side perhaps we need to send some of the melbourne boys up to learn a little bit about the path to success. Its a a grand old flag and a grand old club

    Further to my previous re success of Milawa demons. Are there any other red and blue finalists in other leagues?
  8. dpositive replied to Redleg's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    Its good to see the demon colours triumph across the nation Milawa had a comprehensive victory over Glenrowan in the grand final Dont know that there's any prospective recruits and imagine there will be plenty of Brown Bros product consumed as well as the usual Mad Monday ale.

    Well I have been thinking about this for some time and have seen that there is a diversity of opinion on Jack so will add mine I admire the courage of a kid with a diverse skill set accepting a number one ranking knowing the scrutiny this would place himself under I admire the courage of a kid double and triple teamed, monstered by an opposition set on intimidation in his first match, with little support from teammates I admire the courage of a kid surrounded by teammates without his heightened skills unable to use him to advantage I admire the kid turning up week after week being thrown around by coaches wanting to cover deficiencies with one of the few skilled resources they had I admire the courage of a player not throwing himself into situations that would result in injury I admire the courage of a player not lasing out and being suspended I admire every player who pulls on the demons jumper knowing they will receive little support from the umpires when they are shoved in the back or hit in the head I admire the courage of jack watts in taking the time to consider his future career possibilities when he is about to enter the most critical stage of his career development I hope the club get this right so that all Melbourne supporters can continue to admire his courage as he helps our team to some long overdue success

    Wholegrain bread I hope to enhance the nutritional benefits of the peanut butter and banana combination. Like a good team the attributes of each individual component needs to be recognised and enriched with an appropriate combinbation of different yet complementary values. With the right strategy I could see that this could become the match day supplement to put MFC ahead of the rest just like Hirdy and essendun OH Wait..........

    Not quite the same league Sorry to divert you but I was in a state of near exhaustion and was playing with a new technology tablet (not the Essendon type) while the cycling race (LA Vuelta) was on in the background Orica do resonante as doing many things well and I include the latest, (a quote from one of the cyclists re-signing for another season "The team spirit is the most important thing for me. It’s a team full of fighters. We don’t have a lot of riders on paper who can win big races, but we’re always there. In the team’s first year, people didn’t think we’d get results because we didn’t have a lot of big names, but we did. That’s because of the team spirit.” This is an Australian team including other nationalities which has indeed exceeded expectations As I said MFC could do well to observe their practicesa

    MFC could do worse than watch LA Vuelta and emulate the culture and character of the Orica Green edge team

    Good on you and scoop for extending the demon support line I always enjoy your comments and can remember seeing Scoop jnr on the land Congrats for the marriage and may there be many more demons to come They can even support liverpool if they want

    Not sure about the well coached strategically. Certainly an improvement and some flexibility but watts in defence in last quarter when suns kicked around him and we needed someone to finish in the front end was an obvious fail. On the other hand the treatment on Ablett rotations and constant niggling by all players was a master coaching tactic. At least and at last some positive signs

    Im enjoying reading all the comments as I dont get to see many games only the televised highlights. Did go to QB and was surprised at Toumps size as on this site he was described as small. I did think he was underutilised and thought this may have been the coach . pleased to see he shown a little more last week and I reckon he will become a very good player when he adjusts to the requirements of this level. As others are saying he is only 5 games into the business I dont expect him to dominate every game just yet.

    For a moment there I thought it read banana beard So many possibilities

    Your lucky to have that much technology option We were recently the centre of more lightning strikes and even my steam powered system was put out of action. Telstra Repair date was given by my supplier as 26 April so I was not a happy camper. I rang to say as I had no internet facility I couldnt arrange payment of my Telstra telephone account. Miraculously the fault was fixed by 5.00 that night ensuring access to Demonland. My supplier (not Telstra) was equally astounded. We do have the occasional victory over the grander forces so dont despair

    AAHHH we must be getting closer to footy and further from the tank Enjoyed the banter I did have the tanking conversation with the squash crew last night I used Rpfc line that we are the only club to have been proven not to tank and it was worth the 500 for that. The essendon supporters leading the conversation were already into the AFL and its bloody hopeless management and they shut up as soon as said my bit. Thanks again Rpfc restored respect

    Id have thought giving your doc your "ring" would be enough Wouldnt involve an acronym or you could end up with an 800 page report 18 months of inuendo before being found not guilty but having to outlay $500K

    Brilliant. Confirms my self diagnosis of others far more able than myself. And no one likes a tla or fla more than me .

    Almost too cryptic for me Dc/ err on the deliberatly unthinking side. I do have a reputation for BS although I think it is undeserved. Am working on my deliberation being too slow and my thinking too irrational so may have to consider freudian reference to add a degree of pseudo legitimacy
  22. dpositive replied to Redleg's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    It is. Although it is also the noB$ thread and I would be devasted if that was enforced

    Am really appreciating this travelogue. Hope that your efforts to restore the reputations of all involved in the sordid tale are rewarded. (restoring does not imply only improving) I am confident that we have the most able and determined representatives undertaking this task. Only the obvious talent that is being exposed through Dland reporting will resolve the greatest threat to life as we know it. continued expose will make Dland compulsory reading for any journalist, sportsperson, politician needing to retain a link to reality. What will the Sydney perspective on Melbourne tanking be??? The next gripping episode promises so much! Lets hope that unlike the Wilson inspired fairytale it can deliver.

    What a delight WJ I trust the cruise continues for some time! Seems to be developing into a case of "Wheres Wally" .

    I doubt that Hef could have the stimulating conversation likely in your company (if this thread and site is anything to go by) and while his much publicised life has had its highlights I am sure they are all proportional to those you have had. We can all conentrate on what we have not what we wished we had or what others have and we can progress. I unfortunately do not have the pleasure of your company but then you are not enjoying a swim in my pool. Its a bloody great life and the Dees will have some sort of a year. Dont get me started on "living" on $35 a day either
