  1. Minimum unforced changes for mine, gawn for Dawes
  2. Geez it's going to be scary when we start seeing 100 games next to Viney Toumpas Salem Tyson Kent Kennedy-harris
  3. From a learning point of view, i reckon the next step for Dom is to become damaging with his ball use like Pendles and seeing him up close will help that, he doesn't have to play on him, I rate Beams as being as good as Pendels, his general touches don't create as much but he has a huge capacity to impact the score board
  4. I heard Ben cousins has taken him under his wings, i reckon that would lose him abit of interest
  5. I reckon Dom Tyson will go head to head with Pendelbury
  6. I believe it comes back to knowing his role, the other side of it is the half back can't run off and create as much because he can take a mark and he will impact the scoreboard, and having watts on the other flank is the same, those two will do damage if they aren't respected.
  7. One thing I love about Nev is that he is as tough as anyone on our list, and he is happy to just play his role, doesn't need personal glory, he really is the ideal player in a lot of ways for a paul roos game syle
  8. I was told we did the deal knowing the player we wanted at 2 was a good chance to be there at 9 and we'd essentially get Tyson for free, at the time I believed it was Nathan Freeman, but I am absolutely delighted with what Salem has bought to the side, My girlfriends uncle kind of works loosely with the club in talent identification, he calls mfc, if he thinks a player is worth having a look at and he said he rated Salem and Kelly neck in neck as the two best mids in the draft but conceded he had only seen the vic boys live, didn't get to see Aish or Scharenberg too much
  9. you have done it again, painting your opinion as fact and superior to others based on not a lot really. his initial comment was "Provided we keep on improving, IMO if he hasn't signed by our next bye he is gone I reckon." hardly an outrageous opinion to have and just that, an opinion. you clearly disagree, so I invite you to explain why it's a pointless and stupid opinion to have?
  10. N.Jones - consistent all day Grimes - errors but effort Salem - next rising star Watts - gaining some momentum Toumpas - great footy smarts Viney - always first in Frawley - Provided a target Tyson - scary 24 gamer Dunn - outstanding all game Cross - great stopping performance Garland - reliable and safe Pedersen - continued fine year Vince - playing his role Kennedy- Harris - tried too much McDonald - brave and steady Gawn - had little impact Howe - a few cameos Jamar - lionhearted as always Bail - solid half forward M.Jones - provided good run Terlich - brave and solid Jetta - most improved player?
  11. Hahah i'm not sure you'd want to brag about being " the Toffees", but I take your point.
  12. Every comment I have heard on our current emblem is that it's too busy, but I don't mind it as a business logo, probably looks alright on a letter head and so on, maybe doesn't reflect the " demons" side of the club well enough
  13. believe what you want, but if you act like a dick people are going to pull you up, i'd suggest the fact you haven't worked that out yet means you aren't as chirpy in person as when you have a keyboard infront of you.
  14. This has probably also ensured Mark neeld is never a senior coach again which might be equally as good for the footy industry
  15. I am very confident Brett Kirk would also have a similar level of knowledge of the game plan as roos and if roos stuck around as director of coaching or something that would be fantastic
  16. What do we need going forward, I reckon ( assuming chip stays ) we need one more key forward, another good ruck prospect and some more midfield depth we should chase Gorringe Tommlinson Rosa Mackay
  17. Rohan Bail is now a very good half forward, wins his own ball, tackles, kicks goals
  18. " So in other words, you have absolutely no idea and will pin your arguments to a leaky ill-conceived floating bathtub. Cool. " i'd say that's jumping down his throat, and it's really funny because you didn't even have a theory with any more merit than that to offer, and you're just telling me to harden up because you know i'm right and don't know what else to say. you always rattle your opinion off like it's fact and have a go at anyone who doesn't agree with you.
  19. After watching our game with Port I am sure Eddie and Bucks are worried and have a list of excuses already lined up for when they embarrassingly lose to a side like Melbourne.
  20. He's from Vic, but I am pretty sure he signed a long term deal with the Giants last year. kid's going to be a very good player.
  21. I really think most people knew there was a chance he might retire, but I think a lot of his actions since have been that he still loves the club, not that he has his bags packed for freo.
  22. It's absolutely baffling how quickly Roosy has changed the culture of the club, suddenly we have a never say die, team first attitude and a genuine deep belief that we should and can win every single week regardless of location, opposition, who's in who's out whatever, we are fast becoming a fair dinkum AFL club again.
  23. I wonder if a condition of breaking his contract would be that he couldn't sign with a club other than MFC for a certain period of time?
  24. they have a decent list, I just can't understand why they are so inconsistent.
