  1. Found this on Freeman and don't know how reliable because it is bigfooty.. lol

    ''Melbourne have told him they will select him at 9 if available''.

    I was probably one of the ones that said that. And it is true. We were going to pick him at 2 so its only natural we will pick him at 9!

  2. I'm off work for two weeks with a hand injury sustained playing footy and need to do something besides hang out here. Anyone got some good moves/DVD's you have seen recently, not really worried about genre's just something that you liked I can have a squizz at. WOuld be much appreciated!!!

    Anything Clint! I am a little biased though!

    Anyone else extremely excited for Django Unchained, Tarantino's latest creation? Comes out Thursday.

    Looking forward to it also! missed it at the movies. But friends who saw very much recommended it!

  3. My mate saw him (Freeman) play 4 times this year. He said "the kid just knows how to find the footy. He has explosive pace and a real angry competitive streak. He could do a bit of brushing up on his disposal but gave him a chill up his spine every time he got the ball!" Angry competitiveness is what I would like to see!

  4. Thanks 'tm'

    By adding Sylvia to the 'outs' that means 9 out and 6 in ... so we have 3 spots vacant on the primary list (plus however many rookies - we currently have none)

    We've got picks 9,40 and 57 to use (or picks 2, 40 and a PSD pick)

    If we delist 2 more players we'd then have to use a pick in the high 70's or early 80's as well as picks 2, 40, 57 and a PSD pick.

    Can someone confirm if the above is correct please.

    What is confirmed is that 12 players are gone (all up) and the number might go as high as 14. Think it was 15 last year so that makes 27-29 in 2 years (including rookies)

    That is a huge turnover (not apple) but it was required. Our drafting has been terrible! Hopefully we have the team in place now to make the changes for the future! I doubt we will be using PSD2

  5. What a load of garbage! If we sign this bloke I'll turn in my membership! So that is a no from me! Why not take the gamble on Garlett, another Jeff framer in the making, just slightly taller.

    No he isn't a picture maker. I meant Jeff Farmer

  6. What's the point in pushing for trades for Jamar and tappscott if they are given away for unders? Or little interest?

    There was pretty much no interest in either, so it was a futile exercise trying to get a trade. All this speculation on who will pick at 9? Freeman and that's it, end of conversation...unless of course he is picked beforehand.

  7. You think that the three years he spent here had no impact at all on his growing body?

    His maturing process was destroyed by two things - this club, and his own mindset. The persistent rumours of laziness and a lack of work ethic suggest a player who wasn't prepared to put in the hard yards to get the most out of what talent he had.

    The fact that he spent his formative years as an AFL player at the same club where Cale Morton, Lucas Cook, Jack Watts and co. all failed to develop muscle mass in line with draftees at other clubs indicates we did little to help him.

    Yes, but it also comes down to the person themselves. Some expect it laid on a platter, others take the bull by the horns! The Gys was not one of the latter!

  8. We will improve next year but I'll have better chance winning the $20 million oz lotto jackpot than mfc finishing higher than the bottom 4.

    We were so far off a win last year it wasn't funny.

    I think 6 wins is what the club is capable of, which is a dramatic improvement from last year.

    You better buy a ticket then! I am looking at vast improvement! Remember we have an experienced back and forward line. We just need someone to get it to the forwards. I believe we have addressed this both with the coach and our draftees. Clark will kick at least 50 goals if he stays fit, Hogan will get near the same. We are going to win a lot more games than people expect next year! We will be the big improver! I'm optomistic, yes, but confident!
