Going out on a high!

[Eagle_Fan]

So Dean Wallis has retired. Can't really go out much higher, can you? (Will Sheedy follow him?)

But it was reported here that he has retired to "avoid tribunal concerns" after Saturdays game.

Is that fair?

BTW/ Glad he made up for last year...

 

[walshy1993]

what an absolute load of shit
dean wallis will be playing football for the essendon football club next year without a doubt, but not in the capicity that you would all expect
cant tell you anymore than that

 

[Eagle_Fan]

Really?

see; www.afl.com.au/news/story_199900.htm

What type of capacity?

 

[Bloodstained Angel]

Will he be captain of the VFL squad perhaps ?

Walshy you are a tad misinformed! I will let you in on a little secret...listen closely, "I heard it on the news about 5 times today" (got a day off).

 

[walshy1993]

joel i am not misinformed
you are jumping to conclusions
you are the one misinformed

so dont give me this inverted commas crap

how many sides does the essendon football club have?

good work bloodstained

 

[-TotalFooty2000-]

um, they have 2 sides walshy1993.
see www.footballvic.com for all you need to know about the vfl. The VFL is the old VFA mixed in with the old AFL Reserves, if you hadn't caught up. It has been in existence for only the one season (2000). It would be an ideal role for Wallis. He would still be around the club - albeit in a reduced capacity and therefore a reduced salary - but still contributing.

Apparently he 'hinted' to the fans at the reception in the city square today that he would retire, so thats why it was on the news.

[walshy1993]

thats the point i was trying to make
its called a rhetorical question
do you know what that is??

 

[-TotalFooty2000-]

Yes I do walshy1993.....
I guess I was just using it as an opportunity to plug the VFL website again.

 

[JUBJUB]

Sheedy said about 4 weeks ago that Wallis was in his last season.He also said Wallis would play in the VFL next year.
Wallis must be still mowing Sheedys lawns !!!!
Wallis will still be reported even though he's retired.

 

[walshy1993]

did you watch talking foot last night joel
you may have picked up on sheedy's hints

now who is the misinformed one?

Hey TF2000 - how many "million-dollar dot com company"s are there that run Aussie Rules web sites? Freekick is the only one I can think of - and they went bust after spending over $280,000 to get FEWER members than AFLTips.Com, who spend about $0 and rely on word-of-mouth and alliances with other independant sites.
