In fact maybe he should have been made to miss this game & the penny may drop on what his poor discipline costs him.

And more importantly the side.

100% spot on. Well said.

Who will ruck for the all stars?

Probably Finlayson.
I’ve seen Impey ruck before, and I wasn’t really convinced. 🤔

In the end, anyone, as long as it’s not Kozzie.

My only interest is that neither of our players get injured. 

Yes, hopefully no one is hurt from any team.
But at least we are 16x less likely than Freo.

Absolutely. mfc should stand up on this

What if a player got suspended in one of these games... would his suspension affect his next game - whether that be either another indigenous game, or merely a knee in the back home and away game?

No free to air broadcast.

A free kick to the NRL Indigenous/Maori game on channel 9.

Why are the AFL pandering to the division in society, of the haves and the nots, and the bars selling that drug.

[daisycutter 29,892]

no fta decision just doesn't make any sense at all

[Ethan Tremblay 31,243]

Which team is Kozzie playing for? 

[Ethan Tremblay 31,243]

If you haven’t signed up for Kayo previously, there’s currently a week free (if you’re dying to watch the game).

There is the marketing, and why they pay for the rights to broadcast it.

Would be an interesting game if they played a multi-cultural team (parent, grand parent born overseas).

As a start their tall backs look ok with Alir Alir, Mac Andrew, and Leek Alir.

Any other suggestions?

I'm sure a heavy Irish contingent would give it plenty of run!

Kozzy might be the first player to get suspended while he’s suspended.

I guess we can now say Livingstone, I presume?

He’s going alright, for a 199cm ruck. 🤔

Fierce tackling

[dees189227 12,453]

So if the all stars win do they have a song to sing afterwards?

No FTA when AFL made a few points of declining Indigenous players in AFL.

A real missed opportunity for exposure given it's been 10 years since the last Indigenous All Stars game, and who knows it could be another generation when the next game is played.

I assume this is a joke. Right??

It mostly is but there were two tackles laid by Kozzie that could’ve easily ended in concussion.

Kozzie had some great moments while May finally had a win over Freo’s forward line.

Yeah I’m not 💯 sure but I could swear there was a lunging bump in the 3 quarter. It is a bit reckless.

Otherwise I thought Kozzy played ok in his hybrid MF/forward role.
