Can you ask him if he has got a spare $100k for our rookies?

Given that they are announcing the team tonight with an extended bench, can we spring a rookie in for Sunday's game or do we need to put some paperwork thru head office?

Woof now that would be sensational BUT IT WILL NEVER HAPPEN IN OUR LIFE TIME!!

A last minute inclusion of a player not named on the emergency bench costs between $5 and $10k in fines from the AFL.

I really think we are pushing it financially and the Club can't be seen to be spending money it doesn't have before the AFL loan comes through. Don't you just think that Mr D is loving the predicament we're in now after the hard time Jack gave him and he's just letting us sweat on it. We're now out of Princes Park, we're bottom of the ladder, we're broke, we're thinking of selling home games interstate, and can't afford to promote a rookie to give the supporters something to cheer about. I'd say the AFL Commission has just about gutted the club. Just as well we're all committed Blues fans and keep the faith.
