The only journo worth listening to is one of the most experienced - Mark Duffield in WA. He says Maynard "plays like a human cannonball":

Father played for us in 1979 and brother in 2016

Exactly what Trac said today: "I feel like the last three or four weeks we probably had a similar forward line and it’s worked really well so us mids need to get better at actually delivering the ball inside 50 better rather than blazing away and putting it on their heads.” One can only hope they all look up before they kick it into the forward line. And pray the subsequent shot on goal is straight and true!

Why is Barrett on nickname terms with Maynard anyway?

Says "toey" at 6.30 in that vid. It's all jovial talk but we all knew he was going to beeline someone. Such a wannabee enforcer - shame he never played on someone like Andy Goodwin

Robbie had a broken collarbone (thanks to that other thug Dipper) so would never have played in the GF and the only brain fade was from the field umpire David Howlett who didn't hear the siren, you tw*t

Yes, the tribunal will see the raw footage from the rear angle (showing the deliberate turn into Brayshaw) and side on angle (showing the cannonball-like launch into Brayshaw) and suspend him for 3 weeks. The problem will be on appeal when your former colleagues get involved and use all their cunning, trickery and legal jargon to get him off, as what happened with Cripps last year

"Every single one of them". Motive

The smartest Collingwood supporter to ever live

Just as Adelaide and Dangerfield did in 2011 to bury our first time offender Jack Trengove. Only difference being Dangerfield played the following week and got BOG, even with the "horrific" concussion injury he suffered at the hands of Jack

Straight to the tribunal. Good

And as president of his peers no less. Then again, what do expect from someone who also did a "footy act" in a final and got away with it:

And arguably cost us the game losing a player of his versatility and importance to team set up (including part of the forward line). When you have some powerbrokers like Dangerfield say "there is nothing in this" and McLachlan say "the fact Brayshaw was knocked out will be a factor but not the defining factor", there is absolutely no hope for justice here

Not 100% sure but I think 5pm tonight. At least the match is broadcast on 7HD tomorrow

And every single year they get it wrong, particularly with captaincy

The torpedo bump. To his credit, Smith shrugged it off

The steps and bars in the MCC will be packed, especially if it is a good day on the sharemarket

That is great. The last time I bought tickets in a reallocation was when the Sydney Olympic organising committee were forced to resell tickets to prestigious events like Magic Monday in athletics (Cathy Freeman night) after they were outed by the media in allocating 90% of seats for private sale to the rich and famous. After spending 1 hour on the phone pressing redial every 5 seconds, I ended up getting 6 tickets (for about $80 each) on the home straight right near the media scrum on the finish line! Best night of sport ever, hands down (sorry, beat the 2021 premiership on TV which still doesn't feel real)

Time to buy a lotto ticket

Any chance crowd will be 100k?
