List Mgmt. Welcome to West Coast: Mitch (Star Wars) O'Neill

[RookiePick]

Allegedly its the next big thing. Star Wars for adults.

Im a massive fan. Read all the books. The movie was made ahead of its time. Far too complicated to squeeze into a single movie. The remake will be multiple chapters and the first one only makes it half way of the original movie .

Frank Herbert was a seriously good writer. Deep. Very deep.

It's a very "adult" style sci-fi. I probably got into the Dune series after my third go - the old man had a small library of sci-fi and fantasy so I read a bit quite young and Dune was honestly pretty tough going.

I quite liked Stephen Donaldsons' "Gap Series" not bad for a pretty well fleshed out sci-fi universe that isn't too arduous to explore.

So much for the Tassie connection
O’Neill grew up in Melbourne and played for Oakley Chargers like Luke Shuey
He came over very well in his interview and I have no doubt that he understand s the game and will excell in a structured AFL system.
Said he was stoked to be drafted by WC and can’t wait to get started.
Well so much for all the negativity

Please, tempering ones expectations is not negativity.

Its tempering. Totally different.

Negativity would be saying he's a rookie picked with our last pick therefore he is likely a dud. I dont recall anyone saying that.

Thank you for your time.

Now. Back the the Dune remake. Some pretty decent actors signed up. Filming is done, now just editing and of course heaps of special effects to work on.

Hearing rumours that Oakleigh has sent in an application for an AFL license.

Hearing rumours that Oakleigh has sent in an application for an AFL license.

I feel Oakleigh should temper their expectations.

The Tasmanians though just submitted their funding requirements to the state government and once approved they will be formally applying for the AFL licence next year.

Quite a bit happening in Tassie progressing towards this so called fanciful future.

 

[JoshWoodenSpoon]

I've heard that out west, Dicks FC have been gaining traction.

 

[squashface]

I think my hangover today has applied for an AFL licence.

O’Neill is already gone, campaigners

 

[Chris_6678]

O’Neil wants his own team on Jakku....looks like he is gone boys.

 

[LittleGreekGod]

Ahi the good old anagram for AFL

I've heard that out west, Dicks FC have been gaining traction.

Yep. I've heard they are smashing their historic membership numbers. Not quite as high as Richmond but they are right up there.

Are you a member already or just considering joining?

I can provide you with a reference of you need one.

Well after reading the reviews I did temper my expectations quite a bit. Took the kids and extended family along and was pleasantly surprised that it was better than the negative reviewers veiws. Not bad, not bad at all really.

Bodes well for Mitch IMO.

Now the Dune remake coming out in 2020. The lid is off there. I cannot wait for that.

Making movies out of the awesome Dune books is like .. well Chris Mayne making children with Kiara Bowers.

Nothing good can come from it.

I an really trying to temper my expectations on the Dune not remake. I actually used Frank Herbert's book as my English thesis in year 12. An hour ago bought Mentats of Dune which is a prequel novel.

The book series has a lot of great material. Can they successfully put it on the big screen we will soon find out.

Chris Mayne would make a good Harkonan though.

I still can't believe that O'Neill was Rey's real dad.

The latest is Tim (Fin) Kelly is force sensitive.

Really makes paying all those draft picks make total sense.

Crazy Vosso has done it again people.

 

[Dark Sharks]

Uh oh, Obeanie is going to be happy with the news.

Good thing we all tempered expectations fam

Just awesomeness.
Not super excited by the new ones though.

I went and watched The King on Netflix last week. The young boy king actor is playing Paul Atraides, he looks promising.

The original is one of my faves as well. They did try and jam too big a story into just one movie though. This time they have the time and budget to do the story justice.

You read the books?

Wonder how our girls will fare in their first season.

As a start-up club with no superstar recruit it looks like a learning year with travel and the like , they’ve had a great preseason build up though ..
