Which jones was that. There are two out there but only one Williams.

So, if you haven’t been suspended, even if fined multiple times for striking, you can never be suspended?? Dill is just as bad as Gill, and Christian and Gleason for that matter. My grapevine says that it is already well in process.

I'm not so sure. Your argument is sound enough and along with Dee Dee on the previous page you cover well the reasons the ground isn't open for training. the other one being the grounds people would prefer as little traffic as possible on the surface, but I still maintain it is very doable and it's your negative attitude that is the same as those in charge and the reason it doesn't happen. As with most things in life, things generally don't happen when there is no financial benefit to the people in charge. Just open one gate and keep people in one area. Security could be covered mainly by cameras that are already in place and staffing wouldn't need to be a lot. I agree a lot of the training sessions wouldn't attract a lot of people but the lead in to Anzac Day and finals would and it is an iconic stadium, a chance to see players training there would be a very positive attraction for the game.

Jeff Gleeson KC AFL Tribunal Chair FWIW A brief browse of the internet shows 1. Senior counsel for Racing Victoria during the Cobalt positive saga. Racing Victoria was widely criticised for it’s handling of the long running matter. 2. Independent Commissioner for the ‘Melbourne Response’. A scheme set up by the Catholic archdiocese to compensate victims of sexual abuse. The Melbourne Response was “criticised by the Royal Commission” Oh, and allegedly he is a Collingwood supporter.

And he didn't even bring Lever flowers and a bottle of wine 🙄

Saints are pretenders, a pretty B grade list overall. Dogs had the heat on all week, were gonna come out firing, glad I backed them (and didn't make the mistake of flipping last minute like I did last week when I initially backed the Bombers 🤬) Dogs aren't going anywhere either mind you, two really vanilla teams who put on a snooze fest. Compromising the fixture with 5 day breaks so we can put on games like this no one wants to watch?

The game was a complete snorefest.

They were certainly getting into him 'Rob'. Aligned with his lack of preseason & not getting a clear run with injury, his confidence is well down. His kicking is a symptom of that.

@binman I was convinced that the saints had a bye next week after watching this performance.

The pain of Scotty Thompson gone missing? He was an absolute champion in the making.

True. What’s interesting is 3-letter surnames seem to be the ones that commentators don’t feel the need to include their first names. Eg: Cox, Ash, Yeo, Day. Unrelated: it’s gonna be a looooong six days. 😁

Scott Thompson? I read an analysis last year that actually highlighted how rare any "return from Victoria to interstate" trades were, especially for first round picks. Jackson is a genuine outlyer. Most are lower draft picks who don't make it at their original club and get shuffled home for a second chance (like Jimmy Toumpas).

If Brisbane is going to claim Fitzroy’s flags they can sit top of this table with 933.

I cannot remember for the life of me the last time a player playing for a Victorian team requested a trade home to South Australia. Truly bizarre. Maybe Wanganeen? It just never really happens.

The Dees podcast all over the impact of the five day break. Saints were really lethargic reinforces why Dee’s were so flat. Five day break really warp the competition.

No Libba. No JUH. DOGS DESTROY SAINTS !!! unbelievable

I particularly liked... "Well at least we’ve kept Ugle-Hagen goalless."

Zak Jones, an experienced player, subbed off during this debacle. Not a good sign. Harmes played an OK game.

Bulldogs with +76 marks. Has to be some sort of record?

I thought the H’uns front page was apt. R’pist and a loser. Sensationalist media has a place after all.

Saints weren’t ‘off’ either, they’ve just been mauled.

Membrey doing his best impression of Membrey.

I might pop over to the Saints bigfooty post match thread (shortly). Nothing like a bit of schadenfreude. Did anyone else read the 'highlights' of Justice Lee's judgment in the Lehrmann defamation case? I recommend it. I especially loved the line "After escaping the lion's den, Mr Lehrmann made the mistake of going back for his hat." Comic gold. Is anyone else still actually watching the match?
