I have alway liked Amarty. Out of contract at years end. Has had his share of injuries but I can see him in the red and blue next year. -
I was shocked and genuinely fearful when he came back on. You could tell he was more than just a little sore. The location of the hit was obviously ribs and around the lung area. There have been several similar injuries in football and to take that risk was pure negligance from the medical staff IMO. I would hope the Melbourne medico's would act differntly in the same circumstances.

Struck down with the lurgy this morning and can't go to the game!!! 😫 This means I have an MCC members reserved seat and visitor ticket available. No cost, I just want it utilised. Any MCC member without a ticket (and a friend to go with) that wants to go please dm me. First in best dressed.
As irrelevant as they are to Riak, big brothers misdemeanours may raise seeds of doubt in some clubs minds. It's possible he could drop a little lower than otherwise expected. After the top 10 or so it becomes a bit of a lottery and any perceived risk can be a factor, even if subconsciously.
Would that prevent him playing at a lower level? I don't know. His doctor needs to say it.
No matter what happens, he will always be my bookmark for 2021 GF replays. ❤️💙🏆
From what I can source - now in his 8th year, Smith has played 28 MFC games for 1 goal and around 27 Casey games for 15 goals (inc. 2 'bags' of 2 and 1 'haul' of 3 - the only times he's kicked multiple goals). A very long bow to think he could do what I've highlighted in your post.
No one I've ever known speaks like that, but several TV journalists do, including some from overseas. It must be taught at 'journo school'. I agree, It is infuriating!
Been going to the football for over 50 years. I have never booed any player or umpire. I'd feel a fool doing it and I'd be right. It's simply moronic.
Now proud to call him a son of a Melbourne Brownlow Medalist
I think Monoccular's point is that Kane is irrelevant. I agree with him. What do you learn from him about the game today other than who he likes and who he doesn't? He prefers to play the man.
I remember playing against UHSOB. Enjoyable. Also remember playing against La Trobe Uni. They once described playing against us was like playing against cartoon characters because so many Thornbury players had tattoos. We read it and several of us that didn't have tatts decided to buy several temp ones and put them everywhere including our faces. They looked in shock and we led by 15 goals at half-time 🤣 The neighbour club you recall was Bulleeen United. Those matches weren't fun. Actually dangerous, ugly affairs.
Share your hatred of Port Melbourne. Played 3rds VFA football against them. Team-mate threatened with a gun by a supporter over the fence. I was king hit by a supporter from behind coming off the ground. I was also hit when watching in the crowd the year before.
10 year Thornbury player here. Definitely enjoyed a beer with opponents afterwards, but I always kept an eye on 2-3 team-mates that had the potential to explode.
