Robot Devil

I thought he was OK today.

His pirrouette in the centre square and then jamming it onto the boot to go inside 50 was cool.

It's true. I like seeing the ball heading in his direction even when it's a floater.

Sometimes a floater makes it better.

Didn't it almost happen to Essendon a few years ago? By the last game they were down to their last fit rookie. Maybe it was somebody else, but whoever it was they went close.

Freo went close a few years back. I think they started to sound out the AFL on a solution but managed to make it to seasons end.

I still reckon Leigh Brown would be a walk up start at the moment.

Well said Cowboy. Kids don't know anything about draft picks.

They want to wear a footy jumper to school.

Agree 100% CFH

What is it people don't understand.

This club is hanging by a thread when it comes to member support.

Winning is what makes great clubs

Winning = players wanting to play for us, players wanting to be traded to us, members signing up with us, sponsors signing on with us and kids going to school in an MFC jumper. It would also really help my tipping at work.

It's what we all want.... at least I hope you all want it as much as I do.

Now you're just trying to get your thread count up

Yeah, but according to the media he should be reducing his post count to better prepare for next years threads.

It's a rare day when an umpire pays a free kick in the last few minutes, within range of goal.

Can't stand Hawthorn anyone who was at the games in '87 & '88 knows exactly what I mean.

True. Those two days in the stands are burned in my memory as a young lad.

I have forgotten a lot of things, but not that.

Could someone smack Lehmo upside the head too.

What a [censored].

Carlton are ater Cloke, we are after Cloke, what better way to taint the opposition and sway the decision your way than to come out with something like this?

Conspiracy time:

Sheedy wants Cloke or just to knobble the draft in the favour of GWS.

Offers BM contract for next year at GWS on the condition he reignites that tanking issue to have MFC draft picks stripped.

He is a crafty old cat.

Until the day comes when someone runs the length of the field in the wrong direction to boot the winning point for the opposition, we are making a mountain out of a molehill.

Now that would be something to see.

It's like Americans saying that the MLB finals are the "World Series" and then the USA team get pumped by Columbia or something.

I think the "World Series" was actually named after the newspaper that sponsored the championship in the early 1900s. It just stuck all these years and I think the Yanks secretly like the fact it sounds like baseball is all about them.

[censored] the AFL off before the investigation has even started - good plan. Why not give it the opportunity to blow over on its own first?

Very true. We may have just watched Brock shoot himself in the foot.

Why ruin a good thing.

As Keating would have had us believe , this is a year we had to have.

If we get up off the mat after this year , and I really hope we do, we better go full Hulk and start smashing everything.

I just want to see the things that matter in footy.

Tackles, shepherds, kicking and handpassing to a player moving towards our goals.

These things win games.

Right now, we do not do them often enough.

They get overrun by Geelong - fade badly in the last quarter.....

Sorry to be the bearer of indifferent news.

Yeah.. but that was then. This is now.

couple goals down, round 16 1994. Chopper and the lovetts are playing. I would give anything to get these days of joy back or to even be competitive.

Thanks mate. We can hope the good times roll again soon.

Schwarz, lyon, tingay, pike, jimma, wight, charles.. Neita. I forgot why I loved the club.

I don't have Foxtel. Can you describe it for me on here, as it happens?

On another note I'd also love to see some sheperding from our players. It happens to us often enough. You'd hope they would think we could do it too.

And you know why... because it works.

Both teams get pinged for having 19 players on the field?

I'll double that and throw in Dean Bailey and Barry Prendegast

I'll raise you and bash Jack Watts

Did our team eat a lead sandwich at half time?

Can I be the first to bash Scully here?

From the Twitter feed it sounds like North are out there on their own.

Will be interesting to see if Penguin have some sort of deal where part of the proceeds of sales go to Reach Foundation. I hope so.

Hopefully we will be able to buy it from Reach with the profits being split between them and Jimmy's family.
