Bombay Airconditioning

Just stand at a busy intersection in the city waiting for the lights and say "tindering 1 metre" the response from woman is priceless.

I like the idea of a demon shop in the city. Not sure what's wrong with the logo....I may have missed something. I don't like the idea of the Melbourne "city" Demons. Free clappers....? I would have thought that the AFL and the home team have numerous activitys on offer for the kids everything from face painting, photo opportunities to kicking and handball comps. As an adult my match day experience consists of a meal at the Waterside followed by some friendly banter on the tram then catching up with mates I only get to see at our home games. As has been mentioned before regular wins followed by finals will increase the match day experience.

He did slacken off for a few games in the second half of the season but overall I think he stood up and did what Roos asked of him. As for your 8 I don't see why Jones, Tyson, Cross, Viney, Dunn, Jetta, Tmac, H, Howe, Garland and Vince can't all have solid years and the two who frustrate the hell out of me Dawes and Watts. I believe we will shoot up the ladder this year. I enjoy reading your opinions Macca.

Dunn**......?I thought Dunn was bloody brilliant last year.

Love level 2 punt rd end.

11 games last year we led in the last qtr, twice against Port. I don't recall Clark influencing too many games last year. Our younger players are a year older, learning the gameplan is no longer an excuse. It starts now.

I was editing my post as you were replying DC.I think yes and no, no because onfield results is what's considered to be the true test but yes because we've been able to get the likes of both Goodwin and McCartney who both would have had other offers and plan to be here after Roos goes.

Jackson would have done numerous things for this club that most of us including me would have no idea of what they were. But thing I would bet on would be if not for Jackson Roos wouldn't even be at the club, an extension of that would be McCartney. Does he plan on leaving in two years when Roos does or is going to hang around because of the changes that are making us a better club.

What did we pay for Viney and Stretch? What if Selwood was already picked? Eagles have some father sons on the way and there's no guarantees all father sons will be gun players.

Great idea, and as some have already alluded to leave the father/son alone. It all evens itself out.

How wrong I was.

I thought he was going to be our Chapman and Trengove our Bartell.

So who do we target?

Cameron Mooney for 500.

An attacking half back flanker.....what does that look like?

JETTA FROST DUNN H MCDONALD GARLAND VINCE JONES WATTS KENT PEDO HOWE GAWN HOGAN GARLETT JAMAR TYSON CROSS VINEY NEWTON SALEM TOUMPAS Thought it was time to revisit this after reading recent training reports. Not sure how Howe plays down back if everyone is up and about but if we are playing two rucks I'm thinking were s bit too top heavy. Going to interesting to see what happens if everyone is fit. I will get laughed at for this but another option would be drop Howe, Vince to the HFF, Newton or Salem to the wing and Petracca to the bench.

As long as Cross was one of them I don't care who the other two are.

For what has been an unsuccessful period at least we've had some entertaining forwards - Robertson, Howe, Jurrah, Farmer......seen some great marks taken.

Because Watts covers his teammates backs? At times he can't even man up his opponent. We know about his elite kicking and vision and yes he's an outside player but even outside players have to win their own ball on occasions, not all the time hence "outside" but every now and again wouldn't hurt. I gave an example a couple of weeks back. Loose ball 3 in pursuit, melbourne 2 on 1, Watts was in prime position to grab the ball and accelerate away from contest, but he hung back for fear of being tackled waited for his teammate in a worse position to win ball and pass it out to him only for teammate to win ball and be tackled forcing a ball up and allowing everyone to flood back. But I supose like everyone you take the good with the bad.

Hadnt considered that, fair point.

There's always the "have a chat to one of our sponsors" who just happens to be a property developer. So will we ever know the true amount. I like the idea raised by Eddie a couple of years ago of having one marquee player that can be paid outside the cap.

Not sure RJAY, I'm hoping RPFC has the answer.

The article on the Swans mentioned both the Swans and GWS is having their COLA phased out over the next two years. Anyone know when GC loose theirs?

I'm against it, it's none of my business, as long as all clubs are inside the cap I'm happy.

No doubt he can but many on here will tell you his poor disposal can be attributed to the pressures(perceived or otherwise) of being made the captain. Whether or not you buy into that I would have thought the right thing to do by him is to relinquish his off any extra responsibilities, just let him live or die on his ability to play footy.
