Who are Dale Morton and Brett Maloney???

I'm not sure they ever played for us

Edit: Changed the spelling and still couldn't get it right

Eric McKenzie makes my left foot look like a laser....... And all it's good for is holding me up.

Woeful squad

I've lost 10 kg and am ready to go

Simon Black is interesting...........

May as well take the GWS money because he's going on holiday ...

Having just climbed Mt Fuji, if they leave now there won't be any snow for a while and it's 12,000 feet. It was good for a headspin while climbing, I'm sure it's good for recovery

But she made it bleeding obvious with the comment about his age.

That and the fact she clearly lives in Melbourne.

There's only one that fits when you look at the particulars.

He's not from Melbourne.....

I find it funny that the club don't know who the woman was that called in, but the players do and won't tell the club who it was.

Not a well known player's mum

The only problem that I have is that he worked for a law firm called Clayton Utz which always makes me think of......

..... Laugh...... then continue swimming. Holidays are tough.......

Really what's the problem? Would you wait and see who your new boss is before signing a 5 year contract?

OF COURSE YOU WOULD.......

Brereton didn't need to pick apart every move he made. Some of which were reasonable.

How about we pick apart a GWS youngster for an entire game one week Derm you [censored].

In fact not a youngster lets pick Phil Davis who is a millionaire who spuds up everything and is meant to be a leader.

I actually liked listening to it to be honest. Not only did he pick apart the mistakes he gave advise how to rectify it. That's colour commentary and A HELL OF A LOT BETTER that most of them on tv.

Just because it was a Melbourne player people get their backs up. I don't get it.

Even my 8 year old son could understand when we watched the replay this morning

but will other clubs with A graders be willing to part with an A grader for an early pick?

Since the average age of Hawthorn's midfield is about 55 I would have thought that there would have been a market for trading picks for talent from certain clubs

for anyone needing a smile, scum dog millionaire has 3 touches at half time.

He got subbed out about the 20 minute mark of the first quarter

Definitely, would be a really handy acquisition too. Provides good run and clean disposal from the back line.

Wonder what he'd be worth?

Don't we already have enough non accountable downhill skiers?

Can you post part b.

Does it not show my argument to be correct?

I understand what you are saying. Part (b) pertains to the actual kick not being in accordance, there was no kick, therefore you take part (a)

another excellent ambiguous law from the AFL

Sorry, I don't follow you. Yes he had prior but he disposed of it properly by hand. And it was under pressure. So what was the free for? Must be a rule you haven't quoted or a bungle by the ump. Give their overall performance, the later sounds more likely.

You have to kick the ball first to restart play from a kick in. That's the rule - hard and fast- no two ways about it.

He never kicked the ball, called to play on, then rushed a behind given prior opportunity to do so. This was EXACTLY why this rule was bought in and was correctly interpreted on this occassion

The rushed behind was IMO an incorrect ruling.

By my understanding of the rules, he didn't tap it on his foot, but handballed. Where he handballed it to is completely irrelevant. The second he handballs rather than touch the foot, means it should be a bounce.

Whoever claimed it was a correct decision in the game day thread, please let us know where I am wrong here??

Ed. ucanchoose it was, so do tell, how was it a correct decision??

13.2 (a)

Maybe that failed Tiger and failed umpire coach Gieshen could explain it........if he or anyone else actually knows. :-)))

He needed to kick it to himself to restart play first. This is why the rule was bought in. CORRECT DECISION

I thought we were actually on a mission to find friends for Hogan so he doesn't go home.

Colonel Klink?!?!?!

I can't contain myself.

Loved the bit in the telecast when Rhys Jones compared him to W Carey.

The question is did we do the right thing by picking him up in the mini draft at the expense of pick 3 and potentially Ollie Wines?

The CEO of GWS was on SEN today and said he was surprised more talent wasn't traded for by victorian clubs. Jaeger O'Meara was up for grabs and nobody wanted to trade for the pick

We did the right thing and it will pay off in big HUGE BUCKETS

Chris Judd at one point near the end was about $1.33 with one agency to come to Melbourne

Betting markets like this are for imbeciles

Probably the same [censored] who promulgated the one about Howe (who leads the goalkicking with 18.9).

There's a lot of sheep on this forum who'll follow all sorts of unfounded suggestion.

Have you taken a close look at his action? He starts ok, but speeds up erratically, takes off to the right a bit like buddy but his leg swings from right to left like a terrible golf slice. Have a look at his leg follow through,its about a 45 degree angle There is a lot of work to do to make it smooth. There is a good reason he works on the kicking so much at training. It's not good.

I reckon he's a cracker though...

Good to see the quarter time address went into the cranium

The old 'bounce the ball behind the back trick' lol
