  1. 187 cm/ 89 kg. Not the gorilla that I am pining for.
  2. As above, the Fritz-magnet.
  3. Grundy 17 AFL/5 VFL => ineligible TMac 6 AFL/ 6 VFL => eligible
  4. J Smith & JJ have only played 5 VFLgames and are ineligible. TMac qualifies with 6 and I would give him a run for 3/4 as well as D Turner. Schache need no longer be played. He is not much of an asset for Casey and won't push into AFL this year at this late stage, esp. as we have J Smith, D Turner and TMac up our sleeves. You can look up games played here - https://vfl.aflmstats.com/team/csy/players
  5. Per VFL laws and guidelines, an AFL-listed player is eligible to play for the club's VFL side in finals as long as they have played no less than six VFL games and no more than 12 AFL games.
  6. Around 2000, me and the kids ran out onto the ground afterwards. I started making a hole with my heel to demonstrate a place kick as I was taught by my greatuncle in the late 50's. Bloody security guard made me stop! It's a goddamn police state.
  7. This is the thin edge of the wedge. Next they will be decriminalising henna-possession!!!
  8. 31 yrs, 191 cm, 87 kg. Not the gorilla to contrast with JVR, Melksham, and Fritsch
  9. Bailey Laurie. 2 games for 8 possies. Time for a PB to make the FD look smart and me stupid. No harm in hoping.
  10. I don't mind playing away first final from 3rd. It gets the away final out of the way while we still have a double chance. Our interstate opponent (win or draw) goes into the other side of the draw. We get a "home" prelim final against Collingwood if we both last. If we lose this first final, we next get a home final against 5th to 8th.
  11. I understood only Richmond in 1967 from 4th and none from 3rd?
  12. It is a ripper. I have always supposed that they had the costumes and props from the Mosely series.
  13. Do you have the kms run? I believe that when Spargo is seen at defensive 50, the boys are putting on the screws and we win. Said that last year and got a kicking.
  14. Who is Tony Hardiman? You list some good players but they are way off 98 kgs,
  15. What he said. And re McGovern (190/96), we need to go to the draft for a gorilla in training to replace May. Unless a team needs a salary dump. Turner and co. are rather slight.
  16. Indeed, these would be "imaginary numbers". Several mathematics professors have just stirred in the armchairs and allowed themselves a gentle smile.
  17. Down at the Don't Give A Fig Club (yeah, next door to the other), we dispose of the infinity problem by using the Indifference Index. This is defined as 1/(Caring Index -1)
  18. I hope it is 2 weeks at Casey to see if he his run back. No loitering in the goal square. He was fairly immobile in the firsts when playing. Yep, probably requires an iffy Grundy performance.
  19. Which dried in ridges.
  20. No, not BBrown, North surprisingly let him go in his prime, 2021 and 2022 were good. This is year is patchy albeit without the robust TMac to shoulder the Key Back's physical pressure. Not mooted by the FD but suggested on this forum by posters, Gunston, T. Walker (good this year), Buddy (possible in jest), Darling, probably others. I have set my self a challenge specifying forwards. Well then, Templeton, Moose Henwood, Rod Owen, Ken Roberts (an all-time favourite), Alan Davis, that guy from Footscray, Michael Pickering got a run at CHF. This century. I thought Dawes was quite serviceable but usurped by Weideman. Loved Ben Holland but unfortunately for him, in later years, he was competing for a place against a legend of the club. My beef is mostly that Melbourne used to buy in responsibility in rather develop it in their rogue players, e.g. Sylvia, McClean. They acquired the services of Lewis, Shannon Byrnes. I expect that many names will belatedly pop into head over the next few months.
  21. I have actually seen the umpires rubbing the shine off the replacement ball to better match the old. Did they do this?
  22. The Petty shall bear us up to Glory! I am most impressed that the FD wanted Petty forward and trained him up to do so as opposed some hare-brained scheme to recruit a fading star.
  23. I spent many minutes wrestling with the finals format. I concluded that if we play Port in the first round, we get the interstate final out of the way. We would play Collingwood in a PF or another team that finished lower than us. I would be content.
  24. The Port doc was wrong again IMO. He did not need to perform a test then. He needed to immediately rule both players out of the game. The guidelines state that players must be removed if - the player took No protective action in fall to ground i.e. Aliir - the player has Dazed, blank/vacant stare or player not his/her normal self i.e. Jones There are other criteria such as loss of consciousness but these are not as patently obvious from the replay. The Guidelines (link at bottom) state that there is an external concussion spotter in the AFL Review Centre (ARC) who will flag incidents with the match-day club doctor by approved means. Furthermore, The AFL provides all available broadcast video feeds via the HawkEye system to the club bench at match venues. This link enables the club to utilize real-time video feeds, with variable playback speeds, and multiple camera views. And Sideline video review is mandatory in the assessment of a suspected concussion. On the face of it, this is a good system. It needs also to be investigated if the parts of the system other than the Club Doctor failed. Usually any ineffectiveness of the AFL creates good copy but this will also ruin people's lives. https://resources.afl.com.au/afl/document/2023/03/12/134a48f5-9206-4dd4-b88b-426dd1ea7b31/AFL-and-AFLW-Concussion-Guidelines-March-2023-FINAL-.pdf
