Yeah, there wasn't nearly enough notice about quoting of outside sources

 

[Macca18]

He won't feel much difference, I wouldn't think.

Was regularly given a 'torrid reception' by his own supporters, especially towards the end of his Essendon career... so probably won't notice the difference.

 

[Burzum]

The better reception would be no noise made at all.

 

[Spikey]

Better yet, if everyone just laughed at him.

 

[Kong]

Whatever he does, you can guarantee it'll be a giant McFail.

 

[Burzum]

I just don't want him to feel like he hurt us by leaving, when infact he did us a massive favour.

No, it will be a McEpic McPhail

 

[Macca18]

Unless he kicks the winning goal after the siren against us...

Can you imagine it? Don't even want to think about it.

That would suggest he didn't fumble the mark...

 

[Godzke]

That ... will be ... actually no it's so impossible I can't even try and imaginate it happening in my mind.

That would suggest he didn't fumble the mark; stop; prop; move off his line ruling play on and end of the game; stop; prop again; do a 360; stop; prop; handball to a player that has already started walking off the field due to McShit royally McFailing once again.

Sorry about that quoating error BtG. That was a full stuffup on my part

 

[banta]

i hope all bombers fans make it down on sunday and make a lot of noise.
we really need to make the most of the home ground advantage against freo, because they struggle at the docklands.
i hope they really get stuck into mcphee from the start (if he's selected, he was rubbish last w/e).

 

[Frothies Mcveigh]

I'll be there, I expect him to go missing. Did jack shit last week. I can see Reimers lining up on him at some point

 

[Darealrath]

His best is still pretty good and lets not kid ourselves if he was still at Essendon he wouldn't be playing reserves. Hope he plays another shocker this week, but I can't really be bothered booing him.

Have you watched Freo at all this pre season? He is clearly not at his best. Far from it in fact.

I'm basing it on last season. There's no reason he should have dropped off so much over a summer at his age and fitness. He might be in bad form but I'd expect him to play well as the season progresses.

maybe het got a free?

 

[AndyLesPaul]

I wish I could be there, sledging McFlee, but alas, i'll be in Vietnam, not even able to keep updated

McPhee has it coming for him!

 

[lards]

I wonder if he will be able to score more than 5 points this weekend in SC?

I enjoyed what Knights said. "It's a mans game and it all adds to the theatre".
Has a nice way with words Mr Knights and a healthy perspective on the entertainment nature of a game of footy. Makes a refreshing change from the Malthouse's of this world who treat it like World War.

Because of surgery it wasn't until well after Xmas that he got into full training. Was quite impressive in the intra-club in that he picked up the game plan quite quickly, but then just dropped away
