    As in he mightn't make it or will choose Gold Coast?
  2. While I'd concur with both your points here (though Kynan Brown showed that it is possible to do more to avoid a player pitching forward in a not dissimilar tackle), the compelling element for me was that Dangerfield locked both of the player's arms, so he couldn't protect himself from that forward momentum towards the ground.
  3. Schrodinger's Trac?
  4. Careful here - 50/50 implies the same probability for both outcomes, which is not necessarily the case despite there being two possibilities. Jakovich will or will not come out of retirement and spearhead our forward line next year - 2 possibilities, not equally probable.
  5. What a great choice of .gif. Well done. 🤣

    Yes that's a really good point - it was more achievable the way the game was played a few years back.

    Equally, it is depressing to see how often we've blown past the target we once had (Steven May revealed in a post-match interview back in 2021 or 22) for opposition score of 60 or less (15 pts per qtr). Achieved only twice this year (against Hawks and Tigers).
  8. And just like that, I suddenly feel like I need to throw up. I was there that day.

    Just seen a post from the club highlighting Andy Moniz-Wakefield's numbers on the weekend for casey. These posts often precede a debut in the seniors. It'd be interesting to see what he can do in the ones - Brisbane up there is a bit of a baptism by fire, but if the practice of debuting players as sub is the way of things that could be an option.

    Or will we get this Brisbane?
  11. That is a 40% over-estimation of the distance. 40%! There are literally two arcs drawn on the turf marking the required distance that the umpires could look to for reference. It is inexcusable. Good on Brad Johnson for railing on this.
  12. 6. Kynan Brown - matchwinning tackle 5. Rivers 4. Viney 3. Gawn 2. Tholstrup 1. May
  13. Can we see our debutant at all?
  14. Roooooooooooooo!!!
  15. Good to see Kolt giving more than he was getting in that half-time melee. 🤣
  16. Good to hear the commentators calling out the ridiculous over-estimation of 50 metres.
  17. Liking Tholstrup getting more of the ball. His belief seems to be rising.
  18. [censored] you Footy Dept debuting Kynan Brown as sub. The folder of ****ful selection decisions in the past few years is starting to burst at the seams.

    He's reached the "acceptance" phase of his grief journey.

    What TF was that Catman [censored] doing in the stands just now?
  21. Thanks for that - gave me a literal laugh out loud in the office!
  22. A couple of years ago we took the field against Sydney, and May moved to shake hands with Buddy Franklin, who ignored him and walked straight by. It [censored] me off at the time but in reflection it was a solid F-you psychological move. I would have felt much better had this been our modus operandi regarding Thug Maynard against the Pies.
  23. Whoever his manager made up.

    Can someone get Schwarz to give him a courtesy call on the danger in returning from an ACL prematurely?

    Gawd this is a cholera-level bed-[censored] by Adelaide right now.
