It is pretty frustrating. If his knees preclude him from playing in the seniors, why have him grind bone on bone for casey instead of actually resting, and freeing up space for Jeffo, etc., as you noted?

Could be - though could simply relate to whether JVR has got over his injury, or similar.

Taller than the door - good stuff 😀 Good luck, Luker!

If there's an asterisk next to our 2021 flag, there would be a star the size of Rigel against Richmond's 2020 flag, given the shortened quarters and reduced season length. Can't believe people are buying into this "your flag has an asterisk" [censored]. If not winning successive flags is a fluke, then what's that make it - 75 or 80% of the VFL/AFL premierships across all history are flukes? What a stupid suggestion.

We've kept number 34 in reserve for Kalani White, then?

I thought that discussion was forbidden?

To me it looked to be towards a nearby player closer to the boundary who wasn't in a position Trac had expected them to move into. Gameplan not clicking I assumed. We just looked so disconnected today.

Maybe he was just last in the room and everyone else had filled the chairs from the back to be as far from the spray as possible?

Duty of care. Turning a player around and pulling them backwards in a tackle puts them at your mercy regarding contact with the ground - and here the head indeed makes ground contact. A silly tackle.

Or they've received calls from Goody, JT, seen and shared the club's social media post, fielded texts from Trac and other players, and have been contacted by our media dept to tee up a welcome video?

Bowey?

Again???

Hopefully the Cats have a few mediocre years to bring Chris Scott back to the pack a little.

Phew, I thought you were referring to us in that first paragraph.

Goodwin's presser reporting Petty as a rolled ankle. Hopefully that's accurate.

If Petty doesn't get up, does Jeffo get a look in after his bag of 5 today?

So happy for Maysie!!!

There u go!

She couldn't hold it Oct-March?

A bit odd- it is definitely a 3.20pm start, so not exactly a "night" game. But when they say access to level 1, that would be gen admission bays on L1, not Members reserved seating areas.

The KB game will be a massive stress-test for the mental fortitude of our team. The media will be lathering up the Maynard/Brayshaw background and we all know how the filth supporters get emboldened by that. There will be feeling and physicality on field, and a hell of a lot of aggression from over the fence. Hopefully we can right the ship in the next couple of weeks to go in with confidence.

I love this idea - have some kind of klaxon go off the moment a player runs over 15m. It'd go off regularly and players would be perplexed, being so used to blasting past that distance without penalty for years.

I have, and he is showing some promising signs, so why ruin that by throwing him to the wolves before he's ready?

The Narrm Smith curse?

But at the last moment that psychopath Parker drives upward to change his point of impact from torso to head. Not to mention the very sudden beeline he makes to the player, turning on a trajectory away from the ball. It is simply off the ball thuggery and has no place in a game that wants to survive in this millennium.
