Do you know why Temu is so cheap? They actually make their money by selling your personal details on to third-parties (including criminal networks). 

Just look at clubs NSW with the latest data breach. " Oh just go and replace your ID documents such as driver licences".

Mmm, not so easy.

    What more can a coach do if his medical staff have cleared a guy to play and he's ticked all boxes?

    Sometimes the only thing a recovered hamstring injury is susceptible to is another hamstring injury.

    Yes that is true. Our defence is all time legendary. 

    God help us when our backline eventually breaks from being relied upon for the millionth time.

    #classic Demonland.

    Defence works 999,999 times.

    It's doesn't work on the millionth occasion and it's all doom and gloom

    Careful @Demonland. It’s not as if we’ve got the best finals form line recently, either.

    It's also not a one-way street. I've noticed in the past that the MFC is one organisation to have acquired my data from a third party.

    BT just described about JHF when he had the ball, actually said the horney one. What the hell

    One stage I heard him saying something along the lines of "been lots of dirty balls tonight" referencing Port's inside 50 entries.

    Yes, Port are a dirty team but BT... too far man.

    If anything happens in footy this week more stupid than playing someone a single WEEK after a hamstring tear, it’ll have to be REALLY stupid.

    And that wasn't even the stupidest thing.

    Rozee slightly hyper extended his leg, in much the same way as he did to hurt it the previous week (a weird action I've not seen before in terms of a hammy injury - is that a common way to hurt a hammy @Webber?)

    Was clearly limping. Went to the bench for 9 minutes or some such.

    AND CAME BACK ON, before getting subbed off a short time after.

    Hinkley said he erred selecting him, but was adamant there was no risk of further damage by putting him back out on the field.

    He may well be right, but if you think it was a unnecessary risk picking him, why double down and risk putting him back on?

    Variations thereof, yes. Hamstring tears occur substantially at full pace acceleration on the leading leg. Just after the foot secures in the turf, the hamstring load goes from 0 to 100 in order to pull the body through. That’s when they happen - maximal tension at full length. The idea of not making it worse by sending him back on is wishful thinking at best, delusion at worst. Staggering stuff. I don’t get it.

    Rozee should not have been playing and should not have come on for a second time either. The insanity is partially explained by the fact that Port hate, hate the Crows. Its not some puffed up faux rivalry, they really can't stand each other (I have a work colleague who supports the Crows and another who follows Port).

    Kenny is getting pretty desperate I think. They extended his contract but if they continue to falter and lose the same way as they have done for a little while now I think they'll move him on, with the succession plan already in motion. Cornes this morning suggesting the loss felt a lot bigger for Port than just a 'regular' loss and that maybe it sums up a lot about Hinkley and what he's done over the years. He's been there a long time now and they still appear a bit flakey to me.

    15m in Melbourne must be about 30m in Adelaide as both JHF and Rankine have run a mile without bouncing.

    Another nnon-universal rule of the AFL.

    I am mystified by how far players can run when kicking-in after a behind.  I'd assume they can't run more than 15m from the end of the goal square. Yet they often run much much further than that and it would be easy for the umps to judge given they have a 9m ruler nearby.  Am I missing a rule?

    Thank goodness I'm working tonight so I don't have to see a second of the game. Although it will be a massive crowd and an interesting game

    As horrible as both of these teams are, I am looking forward to watching this game.

    Hoping for a very fair, close and clean game.

    And may they smash each other into next year!

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Western Bulldogs

      The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
