Dangerous thinking in my opinion. Even suggesting to players that they shouldn't get tattoos for this reason has the potential to cause derision and be quite harmful to esprit de corps. Lines needs to be drawn, suggesting to players they shouldn't get tats is one.

To keep the sweat off their brow?

You ex army mate?

5 year contract with an "are you the right guy?" clause which allows the club to question his ability and chastise him in a public forum for a period not exceeding 1 week after any loss

What exactly do we need reassurance for?

offensive? to who, you or jeffy? seems a hugely dramatic response, especially since jeffy has seemed disinterested

"give me my avatar any day" you sound like a smooth operator with the ladies lol

Thanks Nick, its hard to imagine that fitness is a focus of pre-season training without these valuable insights. Next headline - Nick Dal Santo thinks the sky should focus on being blue during the day

Wowee, my childhood crush is wearing a demons Guernsey ...

Gee whiz you sure do get defensive easily. The irony here is I recall you referring to be people as snowflakes before. Your first response to my reply was to tell me I am cognitively impaired as to not have a grasp of your brilliant references. Might be time to start being more aware of how condescending you are. Anyways, listing the statistics of two players and then claiming you aren't comparing the two is idiotic, I'll leave it at that.

Right. So instead of just saying that last sentence, you compared curnows average to pluggers average without drawing a comparison between the two and then spoke on behalf of 18 football departments with authority. Good lord indeed.

Haha right, that wasn't a comparison at all. You were just comparing their goal kicking accuracy statistics side by side. Duh. Curious now - what point were you trying to make when you compared two players goal kicking accuracy whilst not making a comparison between the two players?

This comparison seems dubious at best Lockett vs Curnow Games played - 281 vs 47 Total scoring shots - 1950 vs 93 The disparity in sample data is too big for this comparison. A better way to look at it is Pluggers stats after his first 3 seasons (175 goals @ 68% accuracy). Either way you look at it, you've basically just proven that the two players cannot be compared. Pretty interesting that you are prepared to speak on behalf of every football department in the league and state that his accuracy has never been discussed. All in all - thanks for the fake news

Free kick starts at the centre square for 1 player in violation of the rule. Add an extra 25 metres toward goal for the non-offending team per other player in violation. Problem solved ... I guess Gee footy is becoming convoluted when you need to think of mitigation strategies for new rules like this.

I wouldn't take it so seriously. People come up with stupid and unrealistic ideas all the time, it's just getting forced in to the spotlight right now because media outlets need to keep their website traffic ticking over in an otherwise completely boring off season so far. This is the problem with the internet in general - it gives the soap box of a lifetime for people starved of attention.

Unsure on this comparison. We would have been relegated from the AFL years ago haha

Best backline in the comp? Must be close to it at the very least ...

We already have the exact opposite of thanksgiving - its called Australia day!

Its a nice stat to have - but as more and more teams are added to the competition in recent history, the less relevant it becomes. There was only 12 teams in the comp at our last flag - there's 18 now.

As much as I'd love to have Viney as sole captain - it doesn't make much sense until we can be sure he can stay uninjured for a decent period of time.

At this point of our list and development, if we are struggling mid-year because of his coaching - then maybe he should go?

In most cases, the "unwanted distractions" you speak of really only distract the supporters in the end. Otherwise the club, as a professional organisation, continue onward understanding that delayed contract negotiations does not explicitly mean someone is thinking of leaving. It is abundantly clear that he is fully invested in the club, and if he puts off contract negotiations till later in the year to leverage his contract worth, then good on him. He deserves that autonomy. Relax, its only November and Goody is going nowhere - I'd bet the farm on it.

For sure, I understand what Gary’s getting at. I’d like to see trac lose some weight for sure. Rather he train with stretch than many tho

Great idea. Come back early after knee surgery, what could go wrong? Nice one Gary ...

Watch what the Weid does next year. His kicking action, pack crashing and contested marks are far superior to Hogans and I reckon he's gonna rip it apart in 2019. His body is ready, and the supply from the midfield will be as good as its been in decades I reckon with Kolo in the frame. Sure, he'll never be able to cover ground like Hogan did but who cares, he's a true KPF. Someone else can run the park. Top 4 regular finish and playing a GF is my pass mark (and why not, we've been upwardly trending for years now, no reason that cant or wont continue just cause we're at the pointy end now)
