    One would be talking out their rear end then. 2 goals, 3 goal assists, 11 score involvements and you reckon he lost us that game by bumping Cripps? Laughable. Finished 7th in the B&F, coaches must hate him.
  2. Fromgotowoewodin
    I am in fact saying it’s the opposite of serious.
  3. Fromgotowoewodin
    You’re right that he won’t play at Casey, out for 1 week at all levels. Bit harsh on the VFL though, it’s serious footy no one’s going to king hit him.
  4. Fromgotowoewodin
    Yes. He made incidental contact with an opponent and got a week suspension. Why would the club need to put extra punishment on top of that? Should Rivers have got an additional punishment from the club on top of his fine for a dangerous tackle on Rozee?
  5. Fromgotowoewodin
    Nonsense
  6. Fromgotowoewodin
    Be serious, it’s nothing like the hits on Smith and Cripps. Baker got a week for worse than Koz’s hit 7 days ago, this is the strictest application so far of a new interpretation they only brought in this year. Any previous year it’s a fine at worst.

    I look forward to all the reasonings next time around when it’s one of the afl’s favourites they need to get out of a minor bump.. Sounds like a pretty average performance from Anderson but the lawyering up front is only part of the process, other key pieces include “how will this make the AFL look in the media?” and “how will this affect the class action lawsuits down the track?”

    My issue isn’t with how you want to soften your criticism. My issue is with the myth that he’s ill-disciplined. Think about what you’re actually putting forward “he’s too important” to play at Casey? So are Goody and co scared to drop a 22yo even though he ignores their instructions to be front and centre? And they’re also ticked off with him about bumping players but can’t drop him for that either? Or is it more likely that there aren’t any such instructions and frustrations internally and he’s doing fine on the field (averaging 2goals per game so far, above his career average of 1.49) and the bump is just one of those things that happens (and one which he may still get off with a fine for)? It’s not about MFC can do no wrong, it’s don’t make things up in your head and project them out into reality.

    Yeah I don’t think they’re going to rest him, if anything minor can be done about the hand they might do an op after this week and have him back for the tigers or cats. My daughter got his signature at the family day and I thought “geez his hand must be buggered” but then I compared it to a previous signature from 2021 and it’s just as unreadable then so the hand can’t be that bad.
  10. Fromgotowoewodin
    Standard claim by those who reckon he’s undisciplined. You don’t know if he makes his bed and I’m sure you also don’t know what Goody and the coaches tell him to do on field either. If there was a serious issue with the way he plays he would’ve been at Casey working on it in the twos at some point. The Cripps bump was silly but hardly outrageous, this one is not worth a week and discipline had nothing to do with it.

    Appreciate the clarification and insight into the glamorous world of footy podcasting

    I haven’t noticed the umms but I am glad that @binman has a new mic and doesn’t sound like he’s calling in from inside the stats file filing cabinet anymore

    Shocking spot to stand, had my daughter on my shoulders for a bit and gave up and moved to the punt road wing. Bowzer had the red top on, someone asked him about the shoulder, said he was about halfway through rehab, 4 weeks from playing.
  14. Fromgotowoewodin
    I think we’ll avoid the media false equivalence linking us losing Brayshaw to a high hit with defending Koz
  15. Fromgotowoewodin
    Should appeal but probably won’t. It’s low impact by any measure, if they want to put in writing that there’s no such thing as low impact high contact then do so rather than put in unwritten loadings when they feel like it. The incident itself was accidental, he jumped to try and stop the handball going over the top, anyone wetting the bed about “he needs to get this out of his game” needs a lie down - it happened, wasn’t trying to hurt the bloke, move on..
  16. Fromgotowoewodin
    Funny that no one paid much attention to Pendles basically hanging a dual brownlow medalist out to dry and saying he was only retaliating for something Neale did.. St Pendlebury never does anything wrong. Did you know he played basketball growing up?
  17. Fromgotowoewodin
    I think that only applies if you’ve had multiple fines previously, his last two have been suspensions so if this is assessed as a fine it’s his first low-level one
  18. Fromgotowoewodin
    Clearly Koz just needs to go around with a bottle of wine and some flowers for Mrs Soligo and we can put this all behind us and move on to the Lions
  19. Fromgotowoewodin
    Won it. Looked out on our feet in the last but held on despite them getting a great ride from the umpires. 2 games in 6 days away, 2 wins - go the [censored] Dees!
  20. Fromgotowoewodin
    Careless, high contact, low impact = fine. Anyone saying extra weeks cos of his record doesn’t understand the system.
  21. Fromgotowoewodin
    Choppy game so far, I think we’ll be ok when it settles. Crows getting away with a fair few throws, drops, arm chops - looks like they’re getting unco allowance.
  22. Fromgotowoewodin
    Should win, would be disappointed if we don’t. Short break isn’t ideal but it’s the price we pay for popularity that they put us on in prime time instead of hiding us away on the 4:35 Sunday slot like they used to. ANB about to get the hardest tag of his life tonight after all the media attention this week. Should be able to burn them off by 3QT with his hard running.
  23. Fromgotowoewodin
    23 goal assists in 2023, second only to Trac with 26. Bold to assume he’s not following team rules each week and Goody’s just letting it slide I would’ve thought.
  24. Fromgotowoewodin
    Worth remembering this is his 2nd year. 28 goals in 20 games year 1 (1.4 goals per game), 5 in 4 this year (1.25 gpg). He’ll be fine.
  25. Fromgotowoewodin
    Can’t be too bad if he was in 80% of centre bounces, but I’d still prefer they give him a week off against the crows for the sake of getting it right.
