I’m guessing California. But not very often.

TEAMS: Rd 06 vs Richmond
In my defence, I did point out the “drunk” bit. Some of us are having a Friday night, Teach. Don’t worry. I get corrected every time I open my mouth here in France. The French are very particular about language, whether spoken or written. What was that line from My Fair Lady? “The French don’t care what they do actually, as long as they pronounce it properly.” Spot on.

Great that we have a third version of the actual word rapt. I was getting bored with wrapped.

TEAMS: Rd 06 vs Richmond
All of our discussion and speculation about Weideman and Brown down the drain. When will the selectors listen to us? ?

CHANGES: Rd 06 vs Richmond
13.27 million vaccinated. I’ve had both of my Pfizer shots and my wife has had her first. We’re fortunate to live in a town of 3,500 in the Lot. There are far fewer cases here. But we really can’t go anywhere or do anything. I’d go crazy without the footy. Well, crazier.

Oh, to have Australia’s problem. In France, according to the My Health app, we had 34,318 new cases yesterday. ICU occupancy is at 118.2% of capacity

Coaches Votes - Max takes the lead
I think all of us would like to think of ourselves as experts. But if we were, we’d be working in the industry. Wouldn’t we all love to have a job at the MFC? Then we could cast votes for the B&F. ?

If We Beat Richmond, I Will.......
Understandably. Thanks administrators.

WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - LUKE JACKSON
Yes it does, and always has. Plus, there is no play-on advantage from a mark. Only from a free kick. As soon as you notice the umpire has blown the whistle, but has allowed the advantage, you know for certain the whistle was for a free kick.

WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - LUKE JACKSON
Yes, Jackson could easily have scored a goal in that instance. But just to get it right, Jackson attempted to mark in the goal square. He did not take the mark. He was paid a free kick, but the umpire then ruled advantage and Tommy kicked the goal.

Coaches Votes - Max takes the lead
Ah, the old Delphi method. Yes, that works when the group is composed of experts. Not the thoughts of a hundred idiots like us.

That’d be me. Don’t forget Ichabod Mudd (with two Ds).

Coaches Votes - Max takes the lead
I’ve always thought that the coaches votes are the best indication of how the players went. They know better than the umpires and media. (And maybe better than we Demonlanders.) The Brownlow has the prestige, but the AFLCA award is the real deal.

ANB: Average tackles per game: 3.8. Pickett, 3.6. Just saying.

The Tom McDonald dilemma
True!

The Tom McDonald dilemma
Yes, he was. But keep watching. Then when you finish, go to AFL 360 and hear Goodwin mention his name as one of the core group around Max who has helped drive the selfless attitude and standards at the club. Others mentioned were Viney, May and Lever. So ANB is in good company as well as in Goodwin’s good books.

The Tom McDonald dilemma
I think many on here underestimate ANB’s value to the team this year. So I compared these two on the AFL app and see which is the better performer (statistically) this year. ANB easily wins most comparisons, but his disposal efficiency is 65% cf Sparrow’s 68%. However, ANB averages double the disposals. I’d rather 65% of 15.4 than 68% of 7.4.
