that kid second from the back looks happy to be there

I'm guessing thats because the guy behing him is looking very happy(and close) to be there.

 

I drink and paretake in the odd line of recreation when the moment is right.

Live life to the max. These guys are now programmed robots.

Yes, but you're not an professional sportsman, at an elite level.

Some of these posts surprise me. I don't know that people are quite grasping just what it takes at this level, and in particular, what it takes in terms of work, training and preparation. One missed recovery session can be enough to (seriously) impact on how you run out a game. Or not.

I know a couple of pro and ex-pro sportsmen in other sports, and it's no different. It's a 24/24, 7/7 commitment, just to get that 1/2 percent extra that will make the difference.

I know all that. But the media treats it like they have killed and maimed people. Its over the top.

These people are being paid lots and lots and LOTS of money... They agree to the terms. Thats it.

Breaka da rules..... they breaka da contract. capisce ?

Connors has shown he can certainly play at elite level but appears to let himself down off-field.

If he can get it together and produce a solid "incident free" VFL season, I'd be more than happy for him to land at the MFC.

As for right now? Not much interest.

So goodbye Liam Jurrah then??

Ok Godfather BB

No need for the horse's head

I get the message

May well be no decision for the MFC to make wyl

Thats up to the club...they make the rules.

Connors was on his thrid strike... he new it...and paid....that was their rules...and those that he had agreed to..

Jurrah has more to worry about from a higher judiciary than the club.

Jurrah's fate will come from the judicial law, not the club. But he certainly went home with intent, so i don't like his chances personally.

People on here talk as if he will get off with a warning. Can't see it myself.

I will be amazed if the jurrah pulls on a match day jumper again.

Ive harboured similar thoughts.

I suppose we'll know in the not too distant future.

Strangely I dont think Connors career is necessarily over. ...Might depend how far hes prepared to travel..lol


Sooo ummm.... can we get the tattooed-neck bogan on the cheap?

Straight swap for an upstanding citizen in Matthew Bate.

Heard that before he pulled on his last match day jumper when he proved most in the media and many on here wrong. Let it play out and see what happens.

Sure. But he went up there for a reason, and its not hard to work out what for.

No it's not hard to work out, he went up there because his partners sister had died. Let's not write anything more into it, the year has been hard enough as it is.

And it's not hard to work it out wrongly. Who knows? Hadn't his sister-in-law just died? Foolish to guess. Cultural knowledge and evidence required, both for what happened and motivation if it did.


WYL you are barking up the wrong tree if you are suggesting there was any premeditation or that he was looking for trouble by going there

FCS he had been 'home' many times before AFTER the 'troubles' had started. This was just another trip home and because his sister in law died

What happened then we don't know the details

He told the club he was innocent of the charges

We'll just have to wait for the trial and even then I doubt we will know all the 'truth'

I agree with you DC

But I am cynical enough to say he would say that would he not.

I have a bad feeling about this whole episode.

It would complete a perfect 2012 if it goes the wrong way.

I predict he will be back when the beard gets a bit longer .

yes, that would be a perfect storm wouldn't it?

a funeral, as I remember it being said at the time. you know better than that do you?

none of us has any idea what went on. the court will make a serious effort to establish that. why have any of us the presumption to anticipate (in our near-total ignorance) what the court will find? what motive can we possibly have for speculating along these lines, given that he is one of our favourite players?

    Forget the haunting of Round 11 — we’ve got this. Melbourne returns to its inner-city fortress for its milestone 100th AFLW match, carrying a formidable 10–2 record at IKON Stadium. Brisbane’s record at the venue is more balanced: 4 wins, 4 losses and a draw.

    It’s been a season of grit, growth, and glimpses of brilliance—mixed with a few tough interstate lessons. Now, with finals looming, the Dees head to Kardinia Park for one last tune-up before the real stuff begins.

  • DRAFT: The Next Generation

    It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

  • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

    A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
