  1. In fairness Stakk, I would think that you are preaching to the converted here. The die hard Dee. If all of us had the coin, we would be slobbering our beers all over you in the MCC members also. Im not so sure you can make it a simple debate of "I pay more for my membership, therefore I'm the better and more knowledgeable member". I'm not in the camp that thinks the MCC members are pretend members, but spare a thought for those of us who cant afford the same cash that you can please. We care just the same, even if we drink a goon sack, while you sip MOET.
  2. I'm looking forward to watching you play Clarry, and thanks for reading Demonland.
  3. Not sure about any angst towards the MCC. What's wrong with good dental health, and a decent fashion sense?
  4. GWS made the mistake of recruiting players from the same junior club, or the same state, as a way of attempting to alleviate the "go home" factor. They should have backed themselves, and taken best available. Having said that, imagine their midfield with Adams and Treloar back in the squad. we would be touching ourselves like crazy if our midfield had as much talent. They really should have a cracker side this season.
  5. 4 competitive types in that whole list, and none of them a maniac like Viney. Oliver (by reputation) certainly signals a continuation of a very un-Melbourne direction. I hope he is as crazy at the ball as we have heard. Madmen with skill, win finals. Wouldnt we all love to see a winning final again?
  6. This thread will continue to veer off in various directions, until we have seen him play. Annoying as it is, nobody can give informed comment yet, therefore the conversation gets sidetracked easily.
  7. While I love the look of that, I must admit that I was almost as excited by Scully Trengove Morton Gysberts Tapscott Maric Jones Strauss (for a very short time) God, what a bloody awful group of players.
  8. Ive seen you say this many times on here. I've been saying for years, that the world is full to the brim, with incredibly stupid people. Try working in a coal mine, where the average income, is around twice the average i.q of the workers. If you want to fit in, just add "ay" to the end of every sentence. As for the argument about Jones/Cotchin, haven't people, since the beginning of time, been saying that the greats should be judged by their influence in finals? Compare Cotchin with Hodge. Sometimes raw talent cant overcome whats lacking inside the head. Thats not to say that Cotchin isn't more talented than Jones. I just dont think the gap is all that big.
  9. Back on topic, it will be nice to finally have talls who fly for the ball with "elite courage" Makes the mids much more confident to take a bailout long kick, when they have something to kick to. I hope this guy develops as a top ten pick should.
  10. What? A pre arranged strategy by who? You think the Dees wanted him, or he wanted to play for us, so that he had less pressure than playing with the pies? omg..... I reckon we might have chosen him because we think he might make a great KPF at some time in the future.
  11. Time to start issuing bans WJ. Im sure Im not the only one who is tired of the same schit every day.
  12. I know I would if my young bloke was being spoken to by them. They wouldnt even get through the front door at my place. Scum.
  13. The people having a whine about it need to take off the P.C hat, and realise that there isnt one single person judging his football ability by his looks. They are only saying he looks different to what you would normally expect a player to look. Quite simply, the overwhelming majority have absolutely no fuggen idea of his ability apart from the vids, but they can clearly see what he looks like. *roll eyes*
  14. Can one of you giffers please pm me instructions on how to post them please. oh, probably should add something to the thread. bananas...............
  15. But this is the Darcy Parish thread Red. I think its probably considered appropriate to discuss Parish here.
  16. As above. Re read, and get back to me. Whats wrong with you people?
  17. Tim, can you kindly point out where exactly in my post, that I state that I dont want us to draft the kid? I've looked a few times now, but i cant seem to find it. Someone posted about his looks, so i added a light hearted comment about it. Maybe you need to not take things so seriously.
  18. ok ok, i know I will cop flak from the PCers, but omg, he is the epitome of how we have been viewed by the rest of the teams in the comp for 50 years. I hope the kid can seriously play, or fight like a thrashing machine, because he is going to be targeted every game he plays, just for the way he looks. Looks like a character straight out of a 70's Medieval movie. Can someone photoshop a shield and sword on him?
  19. Melksham is "competitive", whereas Suckling isn't as physical. Its not hard to see that the coaching group are tired of having [censored] in the team
  20. That's pretty much the image that came to mind when I was told the story.
  21. Had a phone call last night from my nephew, with a story about Jesse being on the [censored] with his mates over in Perth. (He works with the mates father). I asked him to send the story to me so I could post it here, but seems he was too lazy. Gist was, Jesse was on the pizz, and making a "lad" of himself, as teenagers do when the are away with mates. In the fun, a folding chair found itself broken, and the finger was pointed at Hogan, who laughed, and told his mates that he could probably afford to replace it with a new one. "ya reckon im on peanuts do ya? haha" Jesse was very happy with life, and in particular, life at the Dees. If the nephew bothers to send me the story, I will post, providing there is nothing bad in it. He hears heaps about Hogan, from this bloke. faulty Thought I should post something about Jesse, as we seem to be getting off topic.
  22. A simple "like" wasn't enough. haha, nice work IRW
