  1. I'm counting the McAdams's posts.
  2. Well the book on the Krakouer brothers was called Brotherboys but these days in parts of Aboriginal society I understand that it can refer to trangender people
  3. Losing A grade talent like Dunkley & Smith suggests to me that it might be a Bevo problem.
  4. The small back pocket has to go to either Jetta or Whelan. Davey in for sure. Not sure post knee Ox or Robbo or Courageous Cam make it. Junior McD should be in & surely Pickett has done enough.
  5. What really killed Thommo was the last game of the season v Collingwood. He has a shocker, probably his worst ever game for us. Had goals kicked against him by different opponents.
  6. Cranky Franky replied to thirty-one's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    Classic 60's menu. How times have changed. Instead of welcome to country they had a toast to the Queen.
  7. Agree about his Casey games. He certainly has natural ability & x factor. Needs to add fitness, discipline, consistency to his game. Hopefully after preseason & a year at Casey maybe he can challenge for a list spot.
  8. Yes and Max should not have played in the Sydney game either - he had the flu & was very poor. He has to stop playing when he's unfit or injured. Maybe that was ok when he was younger but it is now detrimental to the team.
  9. A bizarre response - thanks for the history of Dees wingmen. The point I am making is that given what happened with Angus it is inappropriate for anyone to be commenting or second guessing what Angus is thinking or planning or what he may or may not do. These are private matters for Angus to decide on.
  10. It's been a Goodwin trademark for the last 3 years. Rushing players back in despite them being unfit or out of form - Gawn, Salem, Petty, May, Lever, Langdon, Spargo & others all played when they clearly should not have.
  11. Now you're interpreting Angus' wishes for him & telling us what he wants. Really reaching new levels of tone deafness.
  12. Yep absolute brain fart.
  13. That's Catholic nonsense. Admit your crimes on your death bed & all is forgiven. In the real world you pay the penalty & that's it. You want to penalise him a second time
  14. Would have no problem at all with Hird. He stuffed up & paid the penalty. He has a wealth of experience & knowledge. I believe in redemption but some 'landers clearly do not.
  15. He did mention McAdam quiet extensively & said he's doing everything right & they just need to make sure he stays fit & healthy.
  16. DA Tent ?? - Development Application or is it some camping arrangement ?

    If I stopped posting you'd have nothing to complain about.

    And go home Djokovic - the sooner the better.
  19. I clearly recall Lou Richards complaining that Noel was notorious for belting Collingwood players whenever they played Melbourne. Good on him 👏👏

    Sorry I said snarky I meant itchy.
  21. Cranky Franky replied to Demonsone's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    Very snarky. Please put the claws away.

    I had a girlfriend like that when I was a young feller. The relationship didn’t go well 😵‍💫😵‍💫

    Agree - this is a minor disaster.
  24. Ok, maybe leaker would have been preferable to whistle-blower. The original comment from Ollie was - "we should find and get rid of whoever is leaking about all our troubles"
  25. What a great idea - shoot the whistle-blower and ignore the actual problems. That should work out well.
