Re: Why False Optimism Is Demented And Dangerous
How does false or any sort of optimism from supporters affect the team negatively? Damienc said, in his OP, that our club and its spin doctors, both inside and outside of this forum have a think about it. The club thinks that the 2 big wins, one against Giants, and the Maddies' Match blowout, shows...

Re: Draft guess 1st pick
Just remembered another one - Danny Hughes (any else remember him ) I remember a day at Moorabin when Hughes was playing for Melbourne and Plugger kicked about 4 in a quarter on him. He got dragged and was sprinting to the bench while Plugger was lining up for goal. The members side of the ground g...

Re: Draft guess 1st pick
Rankine will go home in 2 years as will Lukosius time to go a gun mid from Melbourne town Smith for me! Not buying the Adelaide guys will go home after 2 years rhetoric. It is different between living in the gold coast and living in Melbourne but it is still a factor. It should be a factor but not ...

Re: Pick 4 Adelaide and Port
Should trade pick 4 for 2 x top 10 picks if doable. The top 20 runs very deep. Why not get 2 gun kids instead of 1. We had 2 top 10 picks last year :shock: How about picking the best available - oh forgot about that little issue I've seen or heard nothing to suggest we got those two picks wrong. I ...

We had 7 & 8 last year and would not say with any certainty that we nailed a gun. So no from me. We desperately need a quality mid.

The part I don’t get ... - we need another quality key defender. No attempts to get Langdon or Adams ? Langdon was amazing during finals and would be a good get; we have cash right ?

Didn't we use a draft pick in the 20's for him. On that basis if we really felt the urge to trade we should be looking below 10
