Sorry, but that doesn't make sense. Or at least doesn't to me.

I am very much looking forward to Joel Smith returning from injury. I think he will be come a very good addition to our side if he can stay fit.

But i (and i assume others who share that sentiment) am not suggesting Smith's availability is a prerequisite for success in 2020. I think it will help but that's just hunch.

Smith may not even end up being in our best 22, might do or may not shake the injury curse. Whatever the situation ends up being with Smith, i'm still confidentย of making finals in 2020.ย 

Pretty easy to make sense of - you think he has AFL qualities, and I don't. ย Not sure why the confusion.

I feel the same way about Smith as I do both Wagners. ย If they play regular senior footy in 2020, we're clearly bottom 4 material again.

Binman, you really need to raise your standards.

I am in the edge with Smith. Think it may come down to coaching and finding a position. Its no good tying a whole lot of positions for someone who has come to the game late in life. Keep it simple. Backline-spoil. Forward line-strong leads,go for your marks, bring ball to ground. Work hard on kicking skills.

Plenty of blokes fight with friends. Its not a symptom of concussion unless its a very complicated case

Read the article instead of making ill informed, superficial comments. He and his docs would have a better knowledge of his condition than you. Pull your head in (again).

Joel developed OP, one of the few 'injuries' that takes a while to manifest itself fullyย 

If 2 posts on Instagram of him doing gym sessions is anything to go by Joel should be ready for Day 1 pre season

It doesn't.

Plus I can't see any pictures on his insta from the gym

Mate if you watched Insight last night you would realizeย  it is a very complicated case. The bloke nearly jumped in front of a train at richmond station FFS. The multiple concussions have changed his whole personality. Fighting with friends is just one small part of it.

looked much better up forward than down back. Could be a difficult match up as a third tall.

Where does Smith fit?

Read the article. Look for the Shaun Smith concussionย thread. It'sย notย hard. The article is about his concussions and the depression he thinks resulted from it. Try not to revealย tooย much ignoranceย in your responses to it. Or watch Insight (you know, that SBS channel you usuallyย only stop at if it's raunchy).

FMD. I give up, I've hadย enough .

Here's the thing: I'm putting you on ignore. Please DO NOTย reply to me ever again and I will continue to ignore you. Better still, put me on ignore as well. If 'Land had 'ignore in quotes' button I'd hitย it too. Please god let this happen soon!

Do not respond to this post.ย I will not read it. You would be responding to no one.

I see the irony in this being partly about depression with my post.ย

Sorry to disappoint you chazz.

But your initial comment still doesn't makeย sense.

In that comment you imply a correlation between looking forward to Joel Smith playing and our chances of success in 2020. No such correlation exists and no one has suggested it does. Except you.

Your above explanation (ie we dont agree on his ability) is a completely different point.

Edited by binman

Demnonlandersย could you do me a favour and keep an eye on Moonshadow. He is not himself lately. The way he is carrying on you would like I was Inspector Clouseau and just took his job. One minute he is telling me to pull my head in in anger, second warning, the next he is praying to God for help. Poor soul. Anyone know if he goes to Goschs Paddock for training?

Thatโ€™s assuming Weed will play. It will be interesting to see how he looks in the preseason.

Fair point. But I think they are playing different roles. Smith is more s defensive forward.

The Shaun Smith reminds me of the movie Concussion starred by Will Smith. If anyone has seen it you wouldย know it's a brilliant but yet scary reality about the after effects of concussion in the NFL. It seems like it's having an effect on former players like Greg Williams, John Barnes and Shaun Smith.

And my old man thinks I should play in the ruck.

His tackling as a burst off the mark seems to be his best trait. If he can land some tackles, keep the ball inside 50ย and kick 20 goals for the year, he'llย be a player. Let's see.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecastโ€”20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze โ€” expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kateโ€™s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwoodโ€™s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isnโ€™t a standard conceptโ€”itโ€™s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasnโ€™t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's ย six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his teamโ€™s unfulfilled potential rang true โ€ฆ well, almost.ย
