Mate u can be sure Jamar and Johnson are doing their best. We can hope there the next Cox but will this happen. Highly unlikely

And joy for thoes with free to air knowing there is no upper class people in the society now. Lol very happy man. Foxtel is overrated...a waste of time and money...even in summer season on free to air.

- Firstly he's only just come off his best season ever. Is he doomed only to go downhill from here? Not that I would think so. Hes a pure bread footy player. A champion - He's not exactly talkitive when it comes to the media. Does he have the kind of personality that we want the public to associate with MFC? Who knows?! Does he even have a profile? Did he have one before his AA selection this year? Name other youngsters (his age) that are any better talking to the media. Practise makes perfect hey? - Is he damaging enough as a player? Yes, thinking of finals think St Kilda. - Has he done enough in his career to DESERVE the honour? No. He needs another year of what he has done in 06 to deserve it. But after these, and a couple of other negative reasons, I started to reel off the positives: - There are worse players that have been skippers of their clubs. Hell, there ARE worse players that are skippers of their clubs. MUCH worse. We want to exceed the competition. We dont want to be around mediocraty teams anymore so do we want to be slightly better than worse? - If what we're looking for is an interim captain, then perhaps age-wise he's perfect. His career will certainly at least begin to decline after 2 seasons, at which time it'll be only natural for him to hand it over. It may not be so easy to wrench the title from the hands of Green and Bruce who will be in their prime at around 28 in 2 years. The problem with this logic? If all you want is a captain who will retire in 2 years, you may as well leave it with Neita. Correct. Or hand it to someone to lead for 2 years till we see the best of Brock on AND off field, leadership etc. - I reckon Green took a big step this year if what he wants to do is lead the club. His attitude, for all but one heartbeat, was top-notch. But I don't think I'm alone when I say he has a way to go yet before he strikes fear into opposition players and inspires his own mates. He has the talent, just needs some more runs on the board. Green is a disopointment. From once was a dead eye shot at goal, he now misses on more than every second occasion. Why is this. Lack of motovation? Lack of training from playing midfield more than he used to...probebly. I have attacked green in the past for being soft...until revisiting videos of the games and seeing he does put his body on the line...more than bruce. Still I miss that dead eye shot at goal - I don't rate Bruce as a captain. He's a leader by default, as he's such a good footballer, but I worry about his ability to inspire team-mates, and there's still a question on his physical courage in some camps. I think Bruce would be a super captain. He has the skills and knoweledge, leadership and morals but he doesent put his head over the ball often enough. He doesent go in as hard as he could. Tough one...really. I would have to say hes the best looking caption out there though. In conclusion, McLean to be caption in 08. If Neitz hands it over, it should go to Bruce as favourite, Green second and Johnstone third. If neitz handed it over, i would want him to become vice caption. Is Yze still vice capt...i hope not!

White has and is a fantastic member of our team and although Cox is better...White has been for many years. My concirn is that Jamar will never be a good ruckman and i cant see Johnson being any better. This is a negitive aspect of our team but we cant domoninate all over the field. There are always some areas of every team that arnt the best. Ie West Coast have an ordinary forward line, Sydney dependent on one ruckman and so on. Sollution, play Jamar and Johnson as much as possible. We cant recruit any more players (it would have been nice to chase Gardner but its too late now.

Old news...my mate picked this up a month ago. Very old news. Dont believe me...ill give u the url Raz | 9 Nov 11:42 RUMOUR: Fevola and wife Alex have or about to split up, Fevola has been [more moderation] Lara Bingle for 4 months, [moderator edit: we can't have unsubstantiated rumours such as the ones I deleted posted on Demonland, especially if they haven't been brought up in the media, as these could lead to problems for the site owners. Thanks] Alex Fevola just found out while he was away.

My mate went...it was yesterday. He heard them talking about delivary into the forward line and watched them do laps. Hes a richmond supporter.

I do understand ur dreaming but Hayes will take some time and by then Wheels and Pickett will be out of footy (unless hes the next bartram...lets hope)

Choose them for 2 reasons. 1. My best mate follows them 2. The first game i saw was Melb v Port Adelaide and i told myself before the game that whoever wins, ill follow them from then on. Thank god it was a victorian team. 3. Dees are the best but i do follow Hawks and Brisbane religiously too.

Im duncan, 19 nearly 20 Live in the eastern suburbs. Studying Hospitality Management at William Angliss and working in a cafe at front of house and as a chef (when needed). Supported the dees since 2001 (before this i hated footy and any sport). Love music (The clash, Paul Simon, REM, Split Enz, Marc Cohn, David Gray, Jamiroquai, Franz Ferdinand and the cat empire...hate U2, Jet and heavy metal, RnB). Love watching movies (lethal weapon series, alien series, terminator, harald and kumar go to white castle...but my fav is the girl next door - with Emily Hurst and Elisha Cuthbert). Apart from music, dees and movies i play indoor soccer (goley and defender) and bodyboarding, sailing. Fav activity is having good food infront of me, heaps of close mates and a pissup. . Like Play station as well. Thats it really

Good call. Make ur own commintory lol. They only need 2 commintators a game anyway i recon...not 4.

Great summary. Good work. Very worried about Sylvia - will he ever have a full preseason? And Moloney, even though he played a small amount in 06, I think he is essentual and in our 22. Whelan and Bartram are a major concern too but Wheels is very mature and he will do his best I'm sure. As for Bartram, well he had an interupted preseason by being drafted and starting preseason later than everyone else and look what he has acomplished to date. Brocky is a star, but still don't think Bell will be a star, never have though, but happy to be proven wrong.

Wouldnt be worried about the commentator issue Mark Bickley Stephen Silvagni Robert Walls Tim Lane Michael Christian Tony Shaw Tim Watson Anthony Hudson Steve Quartermain Jason Dunstall Wayne Carey Tim Gossage Rex Hunt Gerard Healy Bruce McAvaney Sandy Roberts Ox Boundary Riders Andrew Maher Peter Larkins Dipper Carey Kevin Bartlett Mark Doran I am so happy about the fact all 8 games are showing. Suffer in your jocks (The castle style) to Foxtell.

With 10 and 7 showing each game each round for the next 5 years...i am very happy. *edited by Fan. Inappropriate comment*.

They have endurance...courage and brains. All sports require this. Im talking union not leigue. At least there is no complaining about collingwoods draw each year...which annoys me too but i have gotten over it.

I enjoy a sport which u can play against other countries and is tough

Rugby will always be better than AFL. I would prefer rugby over afl any day and cricket over rugby

I just saw Paul Gardner at my work

1. Brock McLean 2. Brad Green 3. Matty Bate Players gone Backwards 1. Brad Miller 2. Aaron Davey 3. Adam Yze

Saw Neita at the Victory game Saw Garry Ablett JNR at Mount Waverly while a mate of mine and I were eating pizza.
