bluey

Average at Carlton, delisted at 28 from the club he loved. Not much of a bloke, not much of a footballer..

This is always the best part of the Dawes 500k season, and he is suspended yet again," if it is to be it is up to others."

Mitch Clark, poor type of fellow, I suspect the bludger will have difficulties fitting in at Geelong.

Happy to give up both ex captains, Trengrove and Grimes and 20 something for 12, time to move forward and recruit someone who can play, sure both are good blokes and may sign the back of your jumper, love the club like Mitch and Spud Frawley, but both have little ability and 12 is a bargain, would even throw in Dawes...

4 wins, 17th out of 18, staved off the wooden spoon on percentage, lost the last 10 in a row, completely unacceptable, no other way of describing the season. Complete failure.

Our problem is getting the ball, Dawes, Watts, The Ped, Hogan, Garlett , JKH, will take care of business, just get it down there.

Happy with two years, I believe he is what we need now but his defensive style may be dated, his protégés Longmire and Lyon have been out coached recently with better sides. He is no God, just a one time premiership coach who bailed on the Swans. Maybe after three years a younger coach like Goodwin will be the answer.

At least Harold holds some principals, no matter how wacky some of them may be, he is clearly a decent person. I'm convinced the club was pleased to move Clarke on, too much ego, too high an injury risk, too much baggage, now he is someone else's high maintenance problem, we need to spend our time developing our good young players and game plan.

Chip? Spud more like it, poor type of fellow.

I am happy that the club has maintained it's integrity, that's important, we helped the deadbeat out, and for gratitude we got it in the back.

Festival Hall clearly bashed a fellow off the ball a few years back in a Prelim. the AFL stepped in so they could manufacture a Sydney Premiership, let me say the games corrupt.....

I suspect like most 27 year olds the realisation has come, Mitch needs an income to maintain his hipster lifestyle. Should the club chance it's arm again with an aging, injury prone, unfit Mitch suffering/recovering from depression?.................., nah, nope, not a chance in hell, but if Mitch does decide to play, on we should of course seek any form of compensation that is available.

Massive Fail. AFL paid Hunt $800,000 per annum over 5 years for 40 pretty ordinary games, doubt if he pulled one extra loser through the gate, 4 million may have been better spent elsewhere, spectacular example of AFL incompetence.

That's laughable, who is the President? an AFL appointee, small time business man from W.A trying to spread into Victoria, open up a store in Collins street to [censored] jumpers, overheads of about 300k p.a?, amalgamate with Melbourne University in our heartland, not to worry about logistics or facilities, those gems aside I can't recall the opportunity to cast a vote, even after owning a handful of memberships.

Champion bloke, was lucky enough to talk to him on a couple of occasions, taken way to early.

Would be a great get, only 45 next year.

What about the hidings every other week, to cold, to hot, to overcast, boys don't like Etihad, boys don't like being interstate away from Teddy, fellas dunna come ready to play.

Terrible shock, Dawes is out.

Yeh, I believe it, and the Easter Bunny, He is going to a new club so he doesn't have to change coaches.

At least he responded, got to pay that.

Maybe as good a punt as Rod Owen.

If I recall we were 4 points outside the 8 before 186, a poor decision by Stynes and McLardy, Bailey like Neeld were men of great dignity, and were failed by the clubs administration.

Big difference in the sporting culture between Victoria and NSW, only two teams in NSW, abysmal attendances, a large amount of tickets are actually handouts, Sheedy, Scully family, Israel Foollyou, arena built in the middle of nowhere, may as well set up an AFL reality cooking show, would have been more popular.

I see the thread as a good warning to all, doesn't matter who you are, there are plenty of sharks about who are willing to drain your funds.

Couldn't help yourself McQueen, I get it, ,.............. good luck Bails.
