The healthy mental health thread
I had a bit of a stress breakdown in mid 2022 with an inability to sleep and being stressed about an inability to sleep. My GP as well as the temporary sleeping pills, got me onto the Smiling Mind app. I was surprised but this helped. Seeing that I am a sceptical type of guy, I would acknowledge the incongruity, by making the joke that lesson 12 is levitating. Insight Timer was also recommended but this is more complex and heavy duty. How are you doing, Layzie? All the Best R.

Kozzy bump on Soligo
This must be medium impact as in "Any high bump which constitutes Rough Conduct that has the potential to cause injury will usually be graded at a minimum as Medium Impact" There is no suggestion that Pickett or Maynard were au fait with the medical histories of Soligo or Brayshaw respectively and could judge the potential for injury. There is no prospect of players taking opponent's medical histories into consideration while on the field. It is therefore of prime importance that players stop hitting each other in the head and if unavoidable, that they endeavour to minimise occurrence and force of contact. When/if someone dies, I expect and hope that there will be an orderly queue for the criminal negligence charges. Above it is suggested that Pickett tried to minimise the force of collision. Above it is also alternately suggested what I saw; that he hunched his shoulder to give him a strong stable point of contact. As was discussed for Maynard v. Brayshaw, once a body is in the air, its centre of gravity continues in the same direction and with the same horizontal velocity until it is acted on by an external force, e.g. the inertia of Siligo's head. (Newton's first law of motion). An outstretch arm with a view to passing in front of or behind Soligo would have been much kinder. A minute or two earlier, Pickett had tried launched similarly and I recall that he did also on another occasion this match. Goodwin said in the press conference that Pickett was obviously trying to smother the kick. Now that is strange. If I want to touch something, I generally use my arm and hand in magnificent harmony rather than my bum. I find it gives me a much greater reach. I suspect that if Pickett used his hand, he would be contacting the ball rather than heads. Win-win; stopping the opponents' momentum and giving players a pleasant future retirement. This is something for our well-paid well-qualified specialists in the Football Department to promptly fix. By the way, in this case as with Brayshaw, the ball had long gone and was not going to be spoiled. I don't see that there is much value in jumping through hoops to get Pickett off the week's suspension. He needs to stop or he go missing when we need him. A suspension is a lesson to him. As the great sage, Arnold Schwarzenegger, said, "Stop bullsheeting on my leg and telling me it's a puppy". My thoughts entirely.

Crunch Time
Shame. I have just watched it a couple of time and I thought that the ball was over his head and unspoilable.

His vacation job as the speedball in the gym, may have been not the best choice in retrospect.

Training Ground?
An odd comment when the club got $2.7M of the $3M that he originally promised. Rounding down to nearest $100 thou that is say about $2.7M than MFC will get from me (and others) in 60 years of support.

Harrison Petty
Humour my post-covid brainfog, please. Are you saying that one or more reliable sources within the club said that Petty actually asked to be traded to SA? Thanks in anticipation.

POSTGAME: Rd 03 vs Port Adelaide
They paint the goal-line so that back of it lines up with the back of the post including the padding. Therefore a ball that has entirely crossed the goal-line, has also gone past the back of the post. To hit the post after that point, the ball needs to be blown back by a gale or it needs to be spinning such that a part of the ball goes back to hit the post e.g. a helicopter kick or "one around the corner".

Harrison Petty
Same question. What evidence is there that Petty wants to go home other than anyone's attraction to $$$$$?

ASIC disqualifies Joseph Gutnick for four years
I heard that he did his 'nana when he discovered that Schwab hadn't told him about the additional over the counter payments. I think he self-reported to the AFL.

And he's right about this.

- Forward Line & Backup Ruck Issues Going into 2024 and beyond ...
(1) As a son and a parent, I am not surprised that his mum got him to come home. Unless there is a blow-up, the parent controls well into the off-spring's 20's. (2) Grundy covered admirably, when Gawn was down mid-season. We traded him on for a pick and salary relief. I am unsure that we lost from his presence in 2023. (3) True but the young grow into the new roles when given the chance. There is still a long way to go. (4) This was in 2022 without a resurgence. - CASEY: Practice Match vs Port Melbourne
