Looks like both Wallace and Barrett have been reading the 66 pages here

Nah, we needed this guy about 4 or 5 years ago, he could have fiddled whilst MFC was burning

Nah, somebody in the crowd asked Mottlop how many defensive efforts he had made in the game

I agree with what you are saying about him and Petracca, but personally I don't see the need for Rockcliff, especially with his 'issues', but who knows

Sorry Red but I would be, my midfield would be Jones. Viney, Tyson, Oliver, Vince, Brayshaw...don't see the need for him, especially if he stops Brayshaw/Oliver/Petracca getting games, but as Wise says, who knows these days

I would want to know who he would tip out of the starting midfield, as 3 of them finished in the top 5 in the B&F and the rest are young up and comers who you would want to get games into

Sounds like he had an early career in fantasy/mythological films with a name like that http://www.communitynews.com.au/eastern-reporter/sport/swan-districts-young-gun-griffin-logue-looking-to-impress-afl-recruiters/ Also a quick chat with Nev who still has close contacts with Swan Districts would get all the information the club needs

Agreed, I know Clarkson can perform miracles....but

This, another one that hasn't managed a full pre season yet

HT - I can't begin to tell you how far you have fallen in my estimation with that bolded statement above...American sheeesh

This one?

I think these days if any club attempted it they would be very stupid, precedents have been set

AHG? Watts Vince appear regularly for nothing on Footy Show? grassy knoll again methinks

Dear me, "woe is me I am a Melbourne supporter and nobody loves us", we do really need to get a grip, this is called the trade whispers thread, at the moment Josh Mahoney has said we have stocked up with midfielders and apart from Hibberd we will probably be pretty quiet in the trade period although we, like other clubs, are trying to find a fwd/ruck Exactly

My membership gets me in for nothing I take my own food, same as I do for the G Quite like the stadium, been to worse Never quite understood the issue supporters have, apart from MFC playing record there

Wow big call on McDonald-T, personally can see him forming a frightening partnership with Daniher,

Oh, the old 'woe is us' answer, the reason for the last 3 years is because Roos wanted to clear out and build from the bottom up, it also depends on your definition of a big name, would agree that maybe the 7 before that we were not a 'destination' club, prefer these days that we build our own big name players

Then what is the reason over the last 3 years?

The reason a 'big name' has not nominated Melbourne, is for the last 3 years we have not encouraged that, we have built the club from scratch again with 22 players who are there to play a role on any given game day, listen to one of the reasons Hogan re signed "the team is not reliant on one player"

So do I, can never see the problem, been to Victoria Park in the old days and Waverley, as for the roof, if you are on Level 2A at the G and it is a nice sunny day, you have the same issue, think some of the whingeing about Etihad is whingeing for whingeing sake Agreed with bolded as well

Hurley, Watson, Stanton, Zakarakis, Merrett, Heppell, Parrish, Goddard, Fantasia, Pops Kelly, Hocking, McDonald-T, Daniher not a bad start, a mix of experience and youth, think your 'hatred' is clouding your judgement

Think I am safe, Jamar was dumped and he was in similar position to Minson, why would we then get Minson a year later, all this talk about another ruckman? Mahoney said fwd/ruck, though nothing would surprise me these days Vickery to Hawthorm astounds me even given their past record on recycled players

I would support Minson if we signed him coz that means FD value him higher than I do, would still be tempted to eat scarf though

I would you agree you are a definite article, I was sorry I actually asked Misso the question in a way, bombarded with 10 minutes of scientific/fitness/phyisiological information I barely understood, but gleaned quite a bit of about the sheer amount of information the fitness and medical staff have about the players

On Pedo, he was part of a chat I had with Misso, about how do they know what kind of weight or muscle mass a player needs to carry without it impacting on running ability, aerobic fitness etc , he then spent about 10 minutes explaining everything which left my brain hurting, put it this way Pedo would not be 'alllowed' to carry what would be regarded as extra weight Every player knows what there ideal playing weight is, Oscar Mc is about 8kg shy of where they want him to be eventually
