Harrison Petty
I think it's a mind thing for the bloke. I mean in his game against the Cats he was fantastic and clunking them like the ball had Velcro and Petts has the matching Velcro gloves. But most games he has been all at sea and hasn't even kicked straight at goal like in the Tigers game. He must play down back or at Casey. I'm not sure why Goody won't move him. Maybe today against a bottom team, he'll play into some form. It's a worry.

Mick Malthouse "Demons Culture"
Woke doesn't mean what you think it does. I know language is an ever changing and evolving organism but it would be nice for it to have a baseline and not be corrupted by people not motivated enough to use a dictionary from time to time.

Christian Petracca’s 2024 Season Ending Injuries
I'm not saying it was deliberate but you unlike some seem to understand the biomechanics of the game. In a spoil you want to get close to the ball.....a knee retards this process. And if it's not necessarily needed what's wrong with questions about doing it when although remote leads to a player hospitalized? It's not so unreasonable to talk about it.

Christian Petracca’s 2024 Season Ending Injuries
It wasn't necessary. As mentioned stopped him getting closer to the ball. You answered your own post. Four busted ribs, torn spleen and punctured lung normal.....Junk.

Christian Petracca’s 2024 Season Ending Injuries
Could hardly have more muscle mass than Tracc So your all for putting out the knee out when it's totally unnecessary and tearing a blokes Spleen. Bravo. Someone points out it's unnecessary and could be avoided and your response is... junk. Aren't you the voice of reason. Go and take your anger meds.

Christian Petracca’s 2024 Season Ending Injuries
Eyes of the Mfc and back on the instigator of this injury...Darcy Moore. Now I'm not calling him out for malicious intent as knees in backs are clearly footy acts. But are they always necessary. In this case it wasn't necessary at all and did nothing towards the football. All it did was impeded moores ability to spoil and cause severe injury to one of our best. If it's such an obvious and natural part of the game, I do wonder how come we don't see more injuries? Knees should be kept in unless going for a mark. Just out of respect to fellow players and to not create any spinal injuries too.

How typically Melbourne Brodie Grundy
Good points Sydney. I think Grundys tap work is pretty good and yep he's pretty good for a big man at ground level. But to consider him as a fwd option wasn't a great idea because as you say he can't mark. I mean that in itself is a huge indictment on the whole plan. For a bloke not too far from seven feet in height he averages about two marks a game. And he doesn't get into contests quick enough either. Max reads the play so well and as such we see him constantly in contests from one end of the ground to the other. Max is stronger and less likely to be moved out the way.

How typically Melbourne Brodie Grundy
It seemed like a good idea at the time. The big issue was not selecting him in finals. That and a way too inexperienced sub in Laurie was a big coaching error.
