Engorged Onion

Hunting down all those quotes reminds me of this

it's almost like you want him to go down...

harsh as [censored] pal.. you do know the ball is oval shaped, going roughly 30 metres a second...just sayin'

So to make sense of this, get Lever now, best case for 2018, but really 2019 onwards ... so as Oscar will become the gorilla defender that we are after (a la Talia) - Lever will in due course fall back to a similar role... the McDonald, Hibberd, Lever alliance may be up and down as McDonald improves, fills out frame, matures in 2018, but this will be a pretty solid backline for years to come

Please explain how it’s ruined their culture for good?

Intersting language in this article http://www.melbournefc.com.au/news/2018-04-09/spargo-faces-one-game-ban MELBOURNE youngster Charlie Spargo's bid to make his AFL debut this season has been delayed by at least one week after he was offered a one-game ban for striking in the VFL on Sunday. Is he good to go? Also, mod's please merge this with the Welcome Charle Spargo thread - tried search button numerous times, even filtering by Topic to bring up purely Spargo topics... no avail and kept timing out, wouldnt let me check any other pages etc ...quite annoying actually.

Really nice analysis for a quantitative perspective - and I hope you're right with the last paragraph and that the 'stats will hold'.

Erm, looks like the guy on the left with modified hair...

I also knew a player when I saw one- J Gysbersts vs the cats - what a gun... alas, I was wrong...

I hope the commentators are right with their allusions to 'think Boomer Harvey' due to his stature... I can also think of Ben Ken, David Bain, Robin Nahas and maybe Ricky Jackson Welcome kid.

I'd concur, he came good at Carlton - I'd love Stinga, and he got too injured too frequently to really be consistent unfortunately, (does anyone else remember the time in WA where he side stepped to eagles players (one ready to shirt front) and they collected one another...could have been the same game as a chris lewis bite...but hey I'm sure its not and I'm throwing all my WA memories into one basket...

ahhh me neither...

can you tweet @texwalker13 please

I disagree with this notion, correlation doesn't equal causation - I think they're mutually exclusive events... For all the players that have left Adelaide - there are plenty that stay even when they're not in their state of origin. I would love the stats over the last 7 years (Gen Z's and Millenials) of how many who are not playing in their home state, have requested trades back home, vs those that haven't. Further, (and this is one of my biggest gripes) - for those who post on here that players who want to go home are 'soft' etc etc - family, friends, lifestyle just about always trumps working for an organisation when its based interstate - be it football or otherwise.

Please explain...

And Deano was just delisted

Beyond Jakes role, is another train of thought that he frees up Hunt to ‘break lines’ and hit targets further up the ground on a wing? Is that too simplistic?

Evidence please?

My exact thoughts at the time...

Guaranteed 1st round....the afl loves a contrived drama

Oh the hilariousness of GEN X' talking about finical motivation as a taboo reason, and trying to tarnish an image, when GEN 'Y's really couldn't give a fark about taboo and are pretty transparent about rationales...

asking price makes sense - it says to adelaide that staying is not going to happen as I'm pricing myself out of the equation...

close thread...he's locked away

personally Id want to hang with me old mates from Brighton Grammar on more coin, whilst my partner is more content back home and have my family around - given a chance...the cosmos has aligned...

Not directly a pot at you - it's a professional organisation (now) ...of course they've considered this...to whomever they wish to pay overs for currently...
