Oh come now, it was just your two separate posts on top of each other (I couldn’t quote both due to the different page-factor). Anyway I’m only joshin’. Happy 4:20!

Hmmm, Obviously his attempts to deceive the testers were foolish and naive, but the prospect of missing (and the pressure of not missing) finals might have persuaded him to take that clumsy risk.

Sure, at the elite level. I’m talking about the local intra-share house comps.

Forgive me for not doing my own research here, but was Rioli looking at missing out on finals matches had he just ‘fessed up to a bit of weed?

The only “sport” I could see it helping in would be Fortnite.

There is no way you’ll ever convince me that weed is a performance enhancing drug in any contact-sport.

Something tells me Moonshadow doesn’t approve of people who smoke weed

Sure. Let’s not do it again then!

Totally agree. An upgrade is well overdue. I see moving to Casey Fields as very much a “buy cheap, buy twice” scenario though.

No. As opposed to neither of those things

Aren’t we having a difficult enough time attracting players to our club? Telling them that they can add 1-2 hours total travel time to each training session might not exactly serve as icing on the cake.

So how’s that Yze rumour looking then? Sadly, seems to be a non-event.

It’s a tendency of AFL commentators to go into auto-pilot and find themselves saying obvious rubbish such as... “You get the feeling that (team name) really needs to get a goal soon”. It’s great to hear the sound of the crowd and the general atmosphere of the game. Having a “mute” function on those muppets would be an excellent feature. That or adopt the Premier League approach and only have one professional broadcaster calling the game, as opposed to several ex-player deadshits vying for “personality of the year”.

With respect, that belongs with... ”For sale. Baby shoes. Never worn.”

Oliver is not an A-grader. He pops over and visits A-Grade City every once in a while, but he doesn’t live there.

Because we.... ....aren’t very good

AvB: I’ve made a lot of progress recently, and I’m hopeful of playing for Melbourne again next year. Certain “Supporters”: Why are you so deluded?? Wake up you injured liar!! Ahhhhh, this club.

2018 followed by 2019.

Agreed. Obviously performed very well at the Crows. Has done nothing of any consequence In the red n’ blue thus far, let alone earned a captaincy.

Yes, and that’s probably who Garry Lyon was referring to in that interview that got this thread in a bit of a lather (myself included). Makes me think he’s not actually going anywhere.

Nah man. It’s not about the underlying content’s virtue. Make sure notifications like that (Ding Dong??) don’t get broadcast on people’s screens.

Disappointingly, it is recognised as a legitimate word (and indeed, a gerund). It sounds like something straight out of ‘Idiocracy’. Goody likes to say it. ??

This is an utterly bewildering and disrespectful blunder from the AFL social media team. What is wrong with people?

I guess there’s a missing “prone” there. And I do see your point. But I would take the risk (and put some faith in the opinions of the all the medics involved - especially the German ones!), rather than hit 2020 without the prospect of an effective small forward being on the oval for any of our 22 matches.

Yes, but you’re really limiting your options by restricting them to injury-free players. He got up for 15 matches this year, after zero the year before. That’s pretty good going, and it is quite possible that Dr. Wolf Fart has provided the assistance to help him turn that corner.
