  1. Bit of a pain trying to get a javelin launcher onto a packed train in the way home
  2. I heard this a couple of years back in the top deck at Marvel, and have even rolled it out myself as well. Agree it never gets old He other one I heard and liked was in a day game when a bloke yelled out ā€œturn the lights on, I want to see more of thisā€ (wasn’t this year!!)
  3. He's got some nice leading patterns which I never really saw from Jack Watts.
  4. That's definitely not me. I'm the guy critiquing the umpires "That's not a mark" "That's not 15" BALLLLLLLLLL! "You've got to pay them both ways" "FFS" "There used to be one umpire who's doing a better job than these 4" Kosssieeeeeee! "They need to get rid of the insufficient intent rule, that call was b*[censored]" "Kick a goal son! How good was that!"
  5. Phenomenal result considering the scores were level at quarter time.
  6. Don't disagree, but how good did the forward 50 zone look last week with just Kossie in it?
  7. Hoping we build more confidence in the new game style and really take the game on. It was great to watch last week, and we could really get on a roll with further belief it's working.
  8. And no reports/suspensions.
  9. Goody said about eleventeen times in his post match presser that he was really proud of what we did when we didn't have the ball. Maybe Tom's game exemplified this (?) whilst not reflected in the stats sheet.
  10. Agreed, it is a wonderful and moving occasion. So much so my wife is coming along as well, she's on the record as saying she's happy to come just to watch the pre-match ceremony and then go home (but she'll grudgingly stay for the game).
  11. This is exactly how Richmond were in 2017 (and they won the flag) - the one tall in the forward line option with Riewoldt (who isn't that tall), but needed a team playing quick footy and applying forward pressure as you suggest.
  12. She’s better than she used to be - in the past, she’d try to create a newspaper headline after every goal which became really cringy. She’s pared that back thankfully. I did find it amusing that she called two possessions for Disco Turner in the third after he’d been subbed off for concussion.
  13. They took McVee off at 3QT, so judging him by his stats might be a bit skewed.
  14. Re: Shai Bolton flying for a speccy and hitting Disco Turner flush in the back of his head with his knee (I’d contend a missile) Whilst many accept he shouldn’t get time off for this, and protecting the speccy is high on the AFL agenda, doesn’t Bolton have a duty of care as a player who can elevate himself to head height without having to ride up the opponents back? I’m of the view the AFL are heavily blinkered when it comes to concussion and it [censored] me that they bandy around duty of care at the tribunal when it suits them.
