Fluff, bluff, puff, nobody knows how their team will perform until the real deal starts - ridiculous statement I hope none of the MFC players are quoted in the media saying finals are are possible , a certainty, a flag is just around the corner etc STFU and let your actions speak - so much more compelling

Agree, who knows maybe James Harmes wore #4 regularly as a junior , maybe it's his lucky number , maybe he thinks he can run faster with less weight on his back Who cares - good on him for asking and thank goodness we didn't leave it vacant in some pathetic gesture to honour the departure of someone who is no longer on our list I for one think Harmes can be a regular member of a very competitive football team - don't remember not putting in when it was his time to go - hope he has a blinder of a season

Hopefully he comes on for himself and Theox - whether it’s football or something else I hope he does well. Theox was one of my all time favorites and I just hope his son has more luck than he did - not exactly an easy path if he was able to play for our beloved team that would amazing

Thanks and appreciate your in depth comments - yes I can’t believe it’s the same player - he did look bog ordinary and hard to believe he actually got drafted on that footage alone. Reminded me of C Morton not a good memory anyway thanks

Thanks for that - I didn’t profess to be an expert and happy for others who are experts to make list decisions my comments were simply a reflection of the clip which is undeniably very ordinary if he is actually a champion and gifted then great

Just going by the highlights clip - looked more like a bloopers video you obviously know a lot more so tell me why I’m wrong

Please no looks absolutely hopeless IMO

Ah Jako - one of the best ever to pull on the jumper - what a crying shame it was all so brief More highlights in 50 games than most great players would have in 200 games Thought we'd found another freak in Jurrah but that was cut abruptly short too Players of his uncanny ability are so rare

Just an observation really - one year deal reads to me he has one year to show something - if he doesn't I suspect his time at the MFC may be short lived Not sure how that can be construed as complicating anything - am I allowed to have an opinion ?

Really ? I thought we were getting more ruthless and not carrying players that can't or won't contribute - If they were going to let him take 4 years to boom they'd have offered more than one year don't you think?

One year contract - will need to go boom pretty quick !

Based on your favourite players I guess its fair to say there is a fair amount of love for Casey Drunkn? Either way if you look at his stats he really doesn't get the ball that much, can kick a goal though it seems - saying he will be a superstar at AFL level is a fair stretch I think.

At least Biff got the Richmond spelling correct

Pretty sure the two word answer would start with F and end in F

You would like to think so but wouldn't that be announced at the same time if so?

Seems like we desperately needed Jack gone - that on the surface seems like a very very average deal but we are mushrooms in the dark as to the true reasons behind all this

I watched the Melb v Freo game at the MCG again - he looked pretty slow to me. On that effort alone I can't get excited - not sure what he adds really - happy to be proven wrong though.

Looks too slow on what I've seen (which I admit isn't that much) - can kick and ok marking the ball Speed is the big question mark I think

I would say Fritsch but in the FD I trust

Hi Jake Great that you decided to join us at the MFC welcome aboard. We all hope that you will raise the premiership cup in red and blue soon. Good luck for a stellar 2018 season

Huh? That sounds a bit like draft tampering too doesn’t it ?

Good on him - have a blast Jesse and come breathing fire and brimstone round 1 next year

No thanks

That would be one of the worst deals of all time - trade a seasoned AFL footballer who has his flaws but arguably one of our most skilled players to the filth for an upgrade of 4 picks in the Lucky Dip they call the National draft. Then we flip that plus something to Adelaide for a bloke who just polled the same votes in the Brownlow as Oscar Mac and as far as I'm concerned is not a KPD - Wow I just give up

Let's be frank they look like winning a flag in the next few years - more likely than most teams including us unfortunately
