I know Kozzie broke his nose and Clarry kindly told him to wipe the blood off his face

Voted the most selfless player in our premiership year. Rolled Brayshaw onto his side before the trainers or medical staff did when Brayshaw was unconcious. He epitomises what is great about our club.

The difference between us and Port is our game plan put us in a position to win in both finals and it stacks up in high intesity games.

Don't forget changing the ruck rules so Jeff White couldn't get his run up

In the stats thread Oliver & Viney are rated 1 & 2 for Pressure Points based on TOG. I'm guessing this has something to do with it.

I'd like to see those statistics. Does anyone have a link? The funny thing is i reckon Petracca is often the worst kick of the lot of them. His best is the best but his worst is horrible.

If Kozzie was flying for marks which he basically never takes then falling over i would agree with you but he makes a contest and stops the oppositions Jake Levers taking intercept marks. He is still buzzing around creating pressure when he lands after his failed attempt. He can't create an effective contest with his height without flying for it. I'm more concerned about bigger players who don't make it to the contest and are less effective when the ball in on the ground.

I'd tread carefully with Kossie in that regard. We need more x factor in our forward line not less. Everything about our game plan is predictable, he isn't.

I hope JT does another trade none of us understand if we are winners or losers but we get to death ride someone next year.

Hogan and Bedford are even missing sitters for us. It's just like watching Melbourne

Go Hogan & Bedford. Boooo Howe.

I'm guessing not many teams have finished in the top 4 three years successively and given themselves the chance to crash out in straight sets twice in a row

Good move. Make sure you blame your caddy when your putting is off

Sydney want Grundy who is contracted, straight swap for McClean who is also contracted. Number 1 past AA ruckman for their backup ruckman who can actually play the role we wanted Grundy to.

I'm heading to my daughters wear your footy colours day school parade this morning. I might have more dees gear on than the kids

We will win and fans will still be ambivalent because our forward line didn't kick a big enough score

Amazing i'm still fuming about this when we have a final to play tonight. I'm so sick post tribunal decision of posters, general public and media talking about a "loophole" and the need for a rule change at the end of the season. The rule and opportunity to suspend is there. Rough Play is either intentional or reckless. There is no definition of "footballing act" that somehow absolves you of any responsibility for your actions. The AFL is p!ss weak and no rule change will fix that.

Maynard has knocked 2 blokes unconcious in "footballing acts" They both should sue him. Much stronger case with 2 of them.

Everyone's entitled to their opininion and i respect yours. I also put weight on the Brayshaw family's opinion. This isn't their first Rodeo but they haven't been outraged like this before.

It should have actually been a free to Collingwood because Brayshaw didn't jump out of the way after he kicked it

I hope Brayshaw turns up at Gleesons house unannounced today with a recycled bottle of red and flowers to thank him for his support

Prison Break

It was just self defence

Remember when Brent Moloney got suspended because the other bloke fell over and got concussed but Moloney didn't even may contact with him. What a farce
