  1. YES ! And regarding speculation as mentioend by another poster, what is there to speculate about having 3 concussions in a relatively short space of time?? Time to wise up. Im calling it, Brayshaw needs to miss minimum 6 weeks go through CAT scans MRI whatever it takes. We have an obligation to ensure 100% that he is right! 99.9% doesn't evne come close in Welbeing /Concusion issues!
  2. I personally believe that in collision sports in general we arent conservative enough on Head injuries. And in Aussie Rules Blindingly so! Doc Larkins is a very well respected figure and In this area research just hasn't gone far enough. Sam Blease Daniel Bell and others are currently precariously placed with their futures every day! Angus Brayshaw is as tough as they come but with 3 ( i might stand corrected here concussions in such a short space of time) I would be extremely reluctant to put him out on the park in the forseable future! My son plays senior footy and if he were Brayshaw after 3 concusions IN A SEASON I would be imploring him to not play again this year, maybe never again at all! Im sure the MFC will carefully monitor this and respond accordingly!
  3. I Felt most of the Doggies were on! We had too many who were of. 50/50 Balls went their way and the Umpires interpretation and rulings were shizen! They are a very very good team. I am predicting a Cats v Doggies GF! or Perhaps Hawks Vs Doggies I reckon they can beat anyone!
  4. Doc Larkin reckons that he should take the rest of the year of! Would be very prudent in my book!
  5. After reading tha latest Casey Report it appears as if Angus Brayshaw was concussed again on the weekend making it 3 Concussions this year! In my opinion the MFC should rest him for 6-8 weeks if not for the rest of the year. I recently watchd a movie called "Concussion" staring Will Smith which was based around a Pathologist who had formed an opinion that after a successsion of Concusions can result in permanent brain damage! This was based on real story! My concern for Angus is only for his health, I know MFC will monitor closely and I think a number of things could/ should be looked at including the use of a helmet! This young player is our lifeblood and I really hope we put him into cotton wool for a considerable period of time. Player welfare is always No 1 Good luck young fella PF
  6. Another loss today because of Selection errors FCS play Frost down back!
  7. Why "Massively Concerning"? Nup similar to this forum all are entiltled to an opinion! Yours , Mine, Mr Sqiggle, Linda Lovelace whoever you like!
  8. Luke Beveridge is a great coach and top top bloke!! Give me a break! You are on thin ground here son with these comments. I know Bevo and he is entitled to his opinion and I'll tell you what he can coach ( as proven today) and as I have said he is a sensational person!
  9. The Doggies are a very good, quick, skillfiull, pick right option, with great goal kicking targets who might, just might play of in this years Grand Final . We on the other hand were streets away from them today! Not saying for a minute t we didn't try but some of our preferred kicking and handball options were Woeful! Sheeit, the umpires were veyr very poor today with decision making and knee jerk reactions. Typical of blokes who A lack feel and B Have never ever played the game! Gill must be loving it!!?
  10. This is explicitly down to coaching and match ups and again we were found very very wanting! Ya know I would much rather have have picked Frost and had him on him all day , but what do we do ?? Christ Hunt and Jetta on occasion Not good enough Paul Roos! By the way Garland is finished as an AFL Footballer! IMV
  11. Who the [censored] is in charge of Skill development ( I.E) Kicking and or Forward coach because unless they change Hogans style he will always be very very hit and miss! Have spoken about this aspect many times. Seriously this bloke cannot kick! Change now or be danmed for all time as a "Coulda Been"
  12. Why is it that every other club can find targets with kick ins?? Answer this shithouse Zone defence which is totally and utterly worthless. Again I find myself agreeing wth you Daisy Cutter. We Must need to lay man on man in kick ins and Force A 50/50 contest , or dont we think we can win these???? Oh Ok Now I get it! But do not agree with it! at all.!
  13. Well Dazzle, Im waiting and I don't like to be kept that way!?? What exactly do you mean regarding RDB??
  14. Easy solution either A Don't watch B Turn sound down! Personally I dont give a Flying Parrrk about this game !
  15. Yep exactly what I would have done!
  16. So Uncle Bitters you teach at.................................?
  17. And just as an aside Clarry Choo Choo will be a much better player across a career than Parrish, Curnow and anyone else you would like to name from last years draft!
