If my employer came to me and said "sign with us now or we'll turf you out to out rivals" having already known that I didn't want to discuss contract details until a certain period (which is well within my rights), it'd give me a great deal of incentive to leave. That. Ultimate. Achieves. Nothing! (Nothing good anyway) If he stays he will stay. If he wishes to leave at season's end he may very well do so. If he is given an ultimatum having not made up his mind it will only push him one way, IMO. And I'm sorry, but your post before was pure rubbish. "Be strong on this" - it doesn't apply in this context at all.

True - but I think the fact it was Max Gawn meant that we went tall.

Ha. Ha. So you're happy with the club's position then? And does becoming "really strong" have any tangible qualities? Or do we just be "really strong" about it?

Hrm...if his appeal failed already, he'd be out for two... Ah OK, I didn't realise his good record still applied. Thomas out - good news.

I'm not so sure Jack, a few players have been given weeks in recent years for the slightest. One was a Collingwood player if I'm not mistaken, possibly also a Saints players? In the pocket at the Dome?

Reckless Kelly - slightly humourous movie, but no Young Einstein. He's having a laugh isn't he?

This could hardly fit this situation any less.

Pretty spot on IMO.

Exactly. Petterd has played exactly one good game against the Pies. In terms of dreamteam average, they are his 4th worst opponent. Interestingly enough, he has only ever played 1 QB. That looks likely to remain - 1 out of 5. He's also only played them 3 times in total, with one of his games yielding 3 touches.

Disagree. I like the 7:10 Saturday game. I'm also looking forward to Saturday twilight - perfect time to head into the night. The 3:50ish finish on Sunday is pretty handy and whilst I don't particularly enjoy the twilight game on the Sunday, at least it gives you pretty much your whole Sunday. I enjoy watching the double header on Sunday too - the triple header Saturday will rock.

Have you seen the footage of both incindents?

It'd be in the morning for her though.

I reckon it'll be viewed as being high contact (two points), low impact (one point), reckless (two points) and on Clinton Jones (minus 5 points).

I'm more worried about his rating of movies than his injury.

Forgot to change the team - poor management and paid the price.

I don't think there's anything wrong with picking out flaws in someone's game (even if it's their third). I also don't think there's anything wrong with defending a mistake by pointing out that it's only that player's third game.

Bit of a pissing contest - but I will say that my Melbourne flag hangs proudly in the corner of my classroom.

Huh?

Does he have any carry over points?

I wonder if the Pies fans don't (relatively) turn up again this year?

For some reason I thought he was concussed.

Get a hold of Jordan Lisle's shot at goal from 25 out directly in front. To give you a hint as to what happened, if they asked Roughead what he was thinking as he lined it up, he'd have said "I ran to the forward right pocket to my throw-in position"

I reckon Rohan Bail is one of the few players not to remember their debut.

He was great but I think that's bordering on hyperbole. The pick up was to be expected and the handball was, if anything, behind Frawley.

In the second half we had 1048 games experience at 49.9 games apiece.
