Censoring. You guys are always one step ahead of the game. :)

thanks cobber - will try harder

 

They said it really hinders recovery, again particularly for big fellas because as even though they are in business class and have more room it is still pretty cramped and it is a really long flight. One of them, an ex player said also the pressurised environment didn't help things. The consensus was clear that it shortened careers with someone noting Bluey McKenna was adamant it truncated his by up to 2 years.

Add to the problems associated with a long flight the extra hassles of getting to and from the airport (geelong to Tulla anyone?), flight delays, red eye flights, problems players with certain injuries face with flying and having to spend every second week in hotel rooms and away from your own home and you start to have more than a few disincentives to play for a Perth team. And that's not even taking into account that some players hate the fishbowl effect in SA and WA.

Edit: it would be interesting to see the averga number of games played by WC and Freo players and how they fare with players reaching 200 and 300 game milestones. Is pav the only docker to have played 300?

Some interesting points of view here....cheers for that, i really had no idea........the last paragraph also is a very good observation........hopefully 1 good reason for JH not to go back there.

An article written by himself by the sounds of it.

Indeed he did. I am flabbergasted.


as pathetic as purple's award

integrity problems not limited to afl house obviously

Wow.

How fugged is that.

Really....who gave out that award?

I think if the fans were asked, and in this case they (we) are the best judges then Dwayne would be on the bottom of the heap.

Perhaps they got it upside down.

I don't remember him as a player but he played 50 games over five seasons (1987-91) for Geelong - an average of 10 games per year - which hardly puts him in "best 22 category".

Incidentally during his five seasons the Cats performances were mixed - finished well out of the finals twice (9th and 10th), missed the finals a third time.

These facts are derived from afltables.com and confirmed by australianfootball.com. (Interestingly, his elite sports properties biography claims 60 games in four seasons...some sensitivity there perhaps...which probably just goes to confirm his status as a [censored].)

I don't understand why I was censored since the word I used is the singular form of a word in the thread title (rhymes with dog).

The censorship is presumably some automaton- you seem to have been using a term that is used in the context of something that one shouldn't do to a dead horse, or would do so in vain. A bit like it doesn't allow the noun for a person that tosses something. Or the given name of the Essendon (pre EssUndone) Brownlow winner of the early 1950s, Mr Reynolds. Not sure about Mr Robin who announced that the sky was falling - I will try it: [censored] Robin.

All too PC really, but that us where the world is heading.


He's clearly in the B team over at FOX, so not quite sure where this comes from. He lacks insight, he struggles to keep his bias out of his commentary and he's got a face for radio, not TV.

Nothing surprises me anymore with AFL awards of any kind.

Australian football media association awards....never heard of it before but nearly fell off my chair when slobbo announced it on 360 tonight...apparently commeti won it last year

Its an award based on Pass the Parcel at a kids birthday party.

Even the ugly, dorky kid with no friends gets a turn.


Surely they are just taking the [censored] out of him.

yeah Id assume its similar to when bris got together and voted Lonie the most courages

This thread’s title is “Dwayne Russell King of Flogs” and you people are surprised that the Media™ elected him the greatest caller?

Chook, why is media trademarked?

 

Russell's award is a progress payment for the work he's done so far to try to get rid of Melbourne.

These days footy commentators/journos are highly over valued. Just think if Robbo can be called head football writer at the Hun, and absolutely butcher the English language, then it shows how devalued they have become. Wussell would fit in perfectly in Monty Python's Biggus Dickus skit.
