Messen, Juice ?

[TelkoTheGreat]

Anyone know their status?

I would have thought the club had announced their delistings by now? (unless they are staying on as mature age rookies?)

 

[Gissa]

I've been told that Juice is safe. Dunno about Meesen.

 

[Oscarman]

I've been told the Meese is gone. Not sure when it will be announced though.

I've been told the Meese is gone. Not sure when it will be announced though.

Meese claims that he will be in rehab for all of the 2011 season so I can't see him staying on the list.

The tale of Juice Newton may live on. Hilarious and sad at the same time.

Juice wtf???
What has this guy done to deserve a spot on our list?

 

[eliasd82]

How do guys like Simon Buckley and Shane Valenti get the axe.. and Juice still gets a gig...??

Please ditch this dud...

 

[Cudi_420]

Did Juice sign a 3 year deal in 2008? Or was it 2 years? Either way, isn't he safe until a least 2011 either way?

 

[Supermercado]

I seriously doubt Danny Hughes and Rhys Healey are going to survive either so it's odd that there's been nothing yet.

 

[TelkoTheGreat]

yer forgot them to. Especially Healey

Anyone see Buckley in the Pies huddle singing the song on the ground? Poor guy must feel dirty

Did he crack a senior game?

 

[Gazza_11]

Probably doesn't feel as dirty as Nathan.

Promote McKenzie on to our main list and get rid of the other five rookies.

Newton is absolutely terrible and should never be seen in a Melbourne jumper ever again (Worst player to ever pull on a Melbourne jumper), Meesen is injury prone, Hughes isn't going to make it, Spencer is no good, Healy struggles in the Casey 2nds.

Time for a complete overhaul of our Rookie List.

This post assumes the non-existence of Isaac Weetra.

This doesn't surprise me. I think this was always going to be the case because he went on the rookie list. I think Meeson would have got the same deal if his ankle wasn't stuffed.

It's a worthy nomination, but I really dislike Newton.
Newton still remains the #1 worst player to have pulled on the Melbourne jumper in my opinion!

I agree in principle, but the problem is that this is not the year to overhaul any part of your list. The amount taken out of the ND and RD by the Gold Coast means that any Rookies we pick up will be almost entirely speculative picks, hence there's not much point getting 5 of them.
May as well keep Juice for another year... at least we know he can provide some sort of assistance as a second ruck.

So...
Promote: McKenzie, Spencer (don't agree with Spencer but the FD seem to see something us flogs haven't yet spotted... re-rookie if possible)
Rookie: Newton
Delist: Meesen, Healey, Hughes

I think Green takes McDonald's Veteran spot, and Bruce may already be one?? They count as places on the Rookie List IIRC.

So in fact we still get 5 picks in the RD... too many IMO, but new blood is worth a go over the three delists.

Lol at coming full circle and disagreeing with myself.

Please tell me you're not comparing Carroll to Newton?????

Carroll was borderline All Australian Squad Member back in 2006, the only thing Newton has ever done was take mark of the year in 2007.

Carroll>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Newton

maybe it was just his ridiculous beard, haircut and headbands, but i was never a fan

This x 1000

Juice aint got &*^% on him.

 

[Supermercado]

Nicho was good for about two years before he did his knee, ordinary but serviceable for his time afterwards. His shit disposal looks terrible in comparison to the guys like Frawley (even with his unco kicking style) but at the time you could almost get away with somebody who'd have 1 kick and 5 handballs a game.

Am I to assume nobody can find photos of Luke Williams or Scott Chisholm? Time for another "worst player ever" thread so people can box on about each other's selections again.

 

[Fan in the outer]

oh hai nicho

I agree how he got to over 100 games is beyond me. He had a bigger turning circle than the Titanic.

Possibly the worst 100 games player ever

Maybe we can trade that donkey to Carlton for a first round pick, or Brisbane perhaps, they're usually gullible enough
