Stiff Arm

I agree. IMO this romantic notion that we must be near the G doesn't hold water. We play there and we are attached to the MCC, but I'd rather us have best practice training and admin facilities away from the MCG precinct than put up with this endless wait to be hopefully squashed in to a car park space next to AAMI park and still train on public parkland. It's a matter of being pragmatic and ensuring that our players, men and women, have the best facilities soon, not in 15 or 20 years time. If we are offered a twin oval, brand new development with indoor training and pool facilities at Caufield, we should jump at it. And I reckon a supporters social club as part of it would be a waste of money. Would be unused or severely under used

Maybe they are referring to the ball's (its) highest point of intersection with the outreached arms of the player? Either way, its splitting hairs

Holey moley! Not a skerrick of fat

Just a bit

Can't seem to find anything online about this, Red 🤔

Help a ludite, please: Does a fire stick require additional monthly payments beyond the initial purchase? Does it have access to Kayo without Kayo subscription? Fire stick OK to use with a smart tv? Seems too good to be true if there's only the initial purchase and it give wide access to paid platforms TIA

Much the same way 'Robbo' writes his stories. Has anyone seen 'Robbo' and 58er in the same room? Just saying...

So too is Haselby allowed an opinion. In fact, he's paid to have opinions, even if we consider them biased

According to the Pommy papers, Andy Murray is a Brit when he wins, but a Scot when he loses

You should be able to get a park easily on Alexandra Ave near Punt Rd if you arrive by 9am. Then walk over Morell pedestrian Bridge to Goschs. That's where I parked on Wed of last week

Oliver's right hand or left hand today? The broken thumb last year was right. During the wet training session last Wednesday he copped a nasty whack to his left hand but seemed to recover enough to do the match sim Anyone got any info about Lever's injury and timeline to recovery? Thank for the reports fellas 🙏

Yes. Didn't see a drone on Wed, probably not up because of rain. But have seen vision from it in the past I noticed that as well, Dazzle. Given he's not overly quick, I wonder if this is wise. I'm no sports physio, though. ANB also looking super fit with zero fat on him, like a greyhound

Yes, spots in the forward 50 will be tightly contested if all those you mention are fit. I believe thats what you meant. Last year we suffered without TMac and Brown for much of the year and Dogga largely out of form. I'll have a stab and predict JvR will play about half the season, as will BBB. Fingers crossed Tmac stays fit, he's looked cherry ripe at training However, for me it's not that we don't have players inside the 50 who are capable, it's the delivery into 50 that we need to get right. I reckon we could add around 6 goals per game if we improve that connection

One look at Bitter but optimistic's profile picture will tell you that he kicks with the left foot, as it were, and that he's not looking to attract women on here. Just a hunch though, could be wrong

I believe his broken thumb last year was his right hand. The smack on the hand today was his left. Don't know whether that's a relief or another thing to be concerned about 🤔

Huh???

Yep, both got a bit of it and didn't look out of place in the match sim

In the kick and mark session near the end I saw Grundy, Tmac, JvR and another drop 7 marks in a row. The marks that were eventually held were two or three grabs. I know it's wet and early January, but it no joke when fans over the fence are laughing at simple spilled marks

Setson and his tree trunk legs

JvR did well today, very assured, put on size over summer

Jefferson looks good but is very, very light. Knickname should be Pirate. Give him 12 months in the gym. Good hands and a beautiful kicking action. Needs time and development, but has much potential. Got a bit of it in match sim

Grundy last by a long way in every half ground run through

Who's number 47?

Fritter smothers Pig kick out of defence, collects, turns, snap on the left for goal. Classic Fritter
