Having a look at my best 22(team selection) I have realised that 8 players did not strip for the NAB cup. Now that really excites me:

They are- James Frawley (pectoral muscle), 7/8 WEEKS

Nathan Jones (back soreness), -2/3 weeks

Jordie McKenzie (groin soreness),- 2/3 weeks

Cale Morton (finger) 7/8 WEEKS

Ricky Petterd (hamstring) 2/3 weeks

Matthew Warnock (ankle) will miss through injury.- 2/3 weeks

Tom Scully- TBC

Austin Wonaeamirri -TBC.

That to me is unbelievable along with winning twice in Adelaide on the same night. GO DEES.

You know what he 'means'...

Some statistical humour for everyone.

Median is the word he is looking for.

Easy way to remember - the median strip runs down the middle of the road. Median strip.

Thanks rpfc, you are correct of course :wub:

I could be a smartrz and say I was just testing, but as I can never lie, it was just a brain fart

And I did do stats (at uni too) enough to know I didn't want to be an actuary

Anyway, as I think you said in another thread statistics don't "mean" much (at least some of them)

BTW we have median strips in my part of melb that don't run exactly down the middle, but I like your memory jogger anyway

You are complete moron Bobby. Of course the NAB cup is important, nearly as important as a flag. I was very excited with our efforts tonight. Post something sensible next time!

I agree with you, he's a bit of a Num skull at times.

He probobly doesn't understand that we need to recieve winning form & Mo-mentum, just ask Dunny.

The Dunny brush, hmmn,,, I feel a nickname comin on. the 'Janitor', just cleans Up. LoL. forgive me.

Our H/Way has got 3 median strips, so we're doing really well. And they're all parallel to one another, a little like 'corridors', side by side. they go all the way to the railway bridge, but then that wall stops them in they're tracks. The railways tracks.

I suspect this draw was scripted with the expectation that both Adelaide's would beat us as a prologue for their mini derby.

this was the conversation at AFL HQ

Douchebag1: 'well clearly it is logical to schedule the adelaide clubs and the WA clubs to host a match and have a side come from interstate, so 2 victorian sides will have to draw the short straw and travel straight up'

Douchebag2: 'ok, so, game 1 at AAMI... Melbourne?'

Douchebag1: 'obviously'

And playing two teams in Port & Adel at AAMI; coming away with wins

First time ever where we travelled interstate and had so much support. Crows fans went nuts and cheered whenever our players did something against Port. And probably vice versa.

Posted

Conspiracies around every corner...

are you suggesting we are given fair treatment in this regard

Collingwood, Carlton and Richmond in Melb.. what are the odds they would send one of them instead of us to go to AAMI, would never happen in a million years

How can I view the games - no Foxtel?

Thanks

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
