    Im going with 5 weeks. He isnt a pest like Bugg (6 weeks) but is not a celebration of multiculturism like Houli (4 weeks), however this is AFL and as a star player he may also conceivably recieve anywhere between a $1,500 fine and 3 weeks.

    Boring - I saw Jones should be a 300 game player for Melbourne and hold up the cup before he retires. Once he has retired he can enjoy what he has helped to build, at Melbourne Football Club and not some AFL franchise, which is not even a club.
  3. Agree, lets not drink our own bathwater. Remember we are playing the same GCS that beat Sydney a couple of weeks ago. We need to be play with intent, be disciplined as a team and ruthless in the way we go about it, contest by contest, quarter by quarter and game by game for the next two months. Go Melbourne!

    Im beginning to think the state of the game has more to do with the state of Carlton, Doggies, GCS and to a lesser extent St Kilda and Freo than the rules. To fix this, Carlton and Doggies to play each other at MARS stadium at night under dark eaxh week, GCS to play local league in Shanghai and St Kilda and Freo to merge and relocate to Tassie.

    Im furious and will write the club a stern handwritten letter first thing tomorrow once ive sobered up demanding an explanation
  6. Is one of the proposed rule changes that Carlton is not allowed to pkay on Friday nights?
  7. I vote yes, assuming it will grow back.
  8. We should lock him in a cage in one of the MCG light towers between now and the end of round 23 and play the Rochmond theme song throughout the night. This will help deload his foot while also ensuring he is primed to go. The only problem with this plan is finding a cage that will hold him.
  9. I might be alone on this, but I like Frost in our side in particular the way he spools up when there is some open paddock up ahead he goes for a run and launches the ball. Granted the ball often comes straight back but he is a sight to behold at full gallop.
  10. Lol - what did Crouch do other than get smashed by our dominant midfield?
  11. Carlton game should be under the darkness at MARS stadium
  12. Sydney, Collingwood and Westcoast all lost. Id think that goes a decent way to helping our top 4 prospects. Win our remaining games and top 4 is very likely.

    I have us losing to GC next week, followed by a win over Sydney, loss to WCE and then losing to GWS in a thriller to miss the finals. Werd up?

    We've come a fair way since our best players would get on the gear with bikies, get in drunken car accidents and stand on bars to urinate on people after a game.

    Not sure if serious??

    JKH working into some form - go you good things!!
  18. It doesnt really matter who wins tonight. We are above Essendrug and after we beat Adelaide, GC and Sydney we will be well above both sides.
  19. Would he sit next to Gaff on the fpight home?
  20. What if we went after Zac Jones and offered up Tyson and a player/pick? With Sydney's mature mids in their 30's a player like Tyson would be best 22 and play the next 4-5 years in the middle.
  21. chookrat replied to What's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    As a tactic should we play the Richmond theme song when our players run through the banner?
  22. chookrat replied to What's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    I reckon we will beat Adelaide in a tight contest and then lose to GC.
  23. chookrat replied to Redleg's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    Umpiring wasn't why we lost, we didnt stand up to Geelongs pressure in the 4th and made alot of mistakes. This said im very bullish about or side and what we are building.
  24. chookrat replied to What's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    No changes for mine.
  25. I was in attendance in the GA standing area and recorded actual footage getting from the stadium back to the car for the drive back to Melbourne. Enjoy! https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=aRM2YcGpmxg
