The metric system is "woke" now?  :blink:

I had the same reaction.  The metric system came in in 1966.

Not sure where daisy has been for nearly 50 years...🤔 or he has an odd definition of 'woke'.

When I watched Kalani last year at Lavington for the under 15's national championships he was towering over his dad.

I was with a colleague and we estimated that he was already at 200cm tall.

Nope. Tmac is awful and Schache has been banging down the door. Although I don’t think he’ll play. Maybe next week against North. 

T Mac has runs on the board. Schache has 7 seasons of not performing at AFL level

Tmac has been average since about Round 12, 2021. Schache may not be the answer but he’s banging down the door, and with Tmac showing almost nothing. If you’re going to bring up the Eagles game, look who he was playing against.

Unfortunately TMac's good games are becoming fewer and further in-between don't like calling it out but that's where we are atm.

The rehab was working hard. All sprinting, like they were achieving, under distance and time restrictions. Salem, M.WhiteJ. Smith, Spargo and another VFL player. M. White and Salem continued to run laps. Spargo and J.Smith attended some drills. Smith's thumb still giving him some concern, as he attended to it a few times after marking.

First out on the field, 4 minutes  before the rest of the squad, was the backline (Petty not with them). It looks like they want to go well after last week's effort.

The drills started a bit low-key, and they were slightly off, iffy, clean handling and distribution. The second drill, they started finding their voice and skills improved. The third drill and they're humming,

They spilt into two groups, that both worked on ball movement from the backs, thoughtfully to mids and finding angles and passes to advantage into the forwards.

Finished the session with goal kicking.

Tracc and Lever looking very good.

Gawn started with some resistance work and joined in all the drills (ready to go). Did lots of work as a forward.

L.Bailey is looking very smooth when moving and kicking.

The effort and intensity was much higher than the other Captain runs I have seen.

Go Dees

    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
