please advise me as to what matter is more important than this. There simply isn't one. The difference between a side that has a couple of blokes out and a side that has 11/12 out is about 8 spots on the ladder

Let it go pal

I think its a waste of time and resources given the limited degree of control you can exert over injuries given the high contact, high impact nature of the sport (i grant that preparation and recovery will have an impact on specific types of injury prevention)

You obviously dont and thats fine too, will our differing viewpoints change the outcome? highly unlikely i would have thought.

btw i am still waiting for someone to point out which of our current injuries do you believe could be attributed to poor sports science resources/personnel at the club???

You actually have an inability to read, or listen, or both.

WE ARE NOT SAYING WE KNOW. We are saying the opposite. We are saying we don't know, and that our disproportionate number of injuries in the past few years is worth exploring.

By suggesting that our limited sports science/innovation budget is not a factor, you are invalidating clubs who spend a lot more on their sports science (read: the successful clubs). By doing that, you are invalidating sports science. Are you credentialed to do that?

WTF, yeh, i have an inability to read crap. Do we have a disproportionate number of injuries compared with other clubs? Injury data for each club is available in the public domain, why dont you spend your time working out if a problem exists first before defending your stance to the hilt not to mention wasting valuable time and money in an attempt to provide answers to questions that dont even exist.

PLEASE I REQUEST THAT YOU PROVIDE EVIDENCE THAT OVER THE TENURE OF THE CURRENT FOOTBALL ADMIN WE HAVE SUFFERED AN EXCESSIVE AMOUNT OF INJURIES COMPARED WITH OTHER CLUBS.

FFS DID YOU GO TO THE TONY ABBOTT SCHOOL OF DEBATING???

It seems however that you graduated cum laude from the Mark Latham School of shouting

Caps, bolding and underling all at once - Puh-leeeze!

A modicum of restraint if you please 36DD

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,

    GALLANT by KC from Casey

    The world “gallant” is not one that is readily acceptable to losing teams in our game of football so when it was used in the context of the Casey Demons’ loss to Sandringham in yesterday’s match at Casey Fields, it left a bitter taste in the mouth.  The Demons went into the game against the St Kilda affiliated Zebras with the advantage of playing on their home turf (not that this has been a major asset in 2024) and with very little else going in their favour. The Saints have close to a full

    MEANWHILE by Whispering Jack

    … meanwhile, at about the same time that Narrm was putting its feet on the accelerator to obliterate the long-suffering Euro-Yroke combination, I heard someone mention in passing that Kuwarna was leading Waalitj Marawar by a whopping 46 to 1 halfway through the second quarter of their game over in Adelaide. “What is football coming to?” I asked myself.  In front of my eyes, the Demons were smashing it through the midfield, forcing turnovers and getting the footy to their forwards who w
