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!

    • GAMEDAY: Geelong

      It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?

    • PREVIEW: Geelong

      "It's officially time for some alarm bells. I'm concerned about the lack of impact from their best players." This comment about one of the teams contesting this Friday night’s game came earlier in the week from a so-called expert radio commentator by the name of Kane Cornes. He wasn’t referring to the Melbourne Football Club but rather, this week’s home side, Geelong.The Cats are purring along with 1 win and 2 defeats and a percentage of 126.2 (courtesy of a big win at GMHBA Stadium in Round 1 vs Fremantle) which is one win more than Melbourne and double the percentage so I guess that, in the case of the Demons, its not just alarm bells, but distress signals. But don’t rely on me. Listen to Cornes who said this week about Melbourne:- “They can’t run. If you can’t run at speed and get out of the contest then you’re in trouble.

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit.
      Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      For a brief period of time in the early afternoon of yesterday, the Casey Demons occupied top place on the Smithy’s VFL table. This was only made possible by virtue of the fact that the team was the only one in this crazy competition to have played twice and it’s 1½ wins gave it an unassailable lead on the other 20 teams, some of who had yet to play a game.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      In my all-time nightmare game, the team is so ill-disciplined that it concedes its first two goals with the courtesy of not one, but two, fifty metre penalties while opening its own scoring with four behinds in a row and losing a talented youngster with good decision-making skills and a lethal left foot kick, subbed off in the first quarter with what looks like a bad knee injury.
