You have to feel for Kade and anybody who suffers from something debilitating and potentially misdiagnosed.

I was being polite DrG.

Probably my darkest day/week as a Dees fan the day of the loss and the week post where I got drilled by every Bombers fan I know...

Oh my lord that is beautiful from Bomberblitz... long may they be down the bottom, I hope it is a generation.

Thanks Webbs!!! High ankle sprain... interesting, I thought they might have been using a different term previously. I did see an article, was from 2020 that noted that season had a very high number of this injury, might have been an outlier season. It does note it is usually 3-4 per season on ave https://www.afl.com.au/news/463519/injuries-on-the-rise-why-afl-footballers-are-running-the-gauntlet Funny enough as a 17yr old I had a syndesmosis, I'd never heard of it, was a funny popping feeling in the lower leg and just not being able to get any drive out of it, was a decent recovery time too. Ps how are the paintings progressing?

@Webber would love your feedback on the dreaded and now seemingly increasing numbers of syndesmosis injuries in the AFL. The last few years it seems like there are ever increasing numbers of it occurring are there any reasons why that might be the case?

Reliable, relentless and resilient are words I think when thinking of ANB. Ultra consistent now, relentlessly runs up and down the field and no matter how gasping for air he is he will go again and again and again. Kudos to him and the coaches, you wouldn’t trade him for many now.

Which one of them called Oliver “Clarence” during the game?

Good go man don’t let them ruin Mark of Cain, they can have Ben Folds!

Compared to his pay packet… we’ll and truely over rated. He hit a ceiling at GWS and he slide since, has some moments but for his size and speed he should be a 50+ goal kicker each year. 10 seasons prior to this he’s kicked over 50, 3 seasons ago was the apex at 76.

Stop it Ddeerrwwaayyynne I’m going to drown in booze bull bull vull bull bull bull boooolll

9.1 first half vs 3.8….

Clarry missed hitting up Kozzy, slowed then play down, got it to ANB who stuffed the decision making/kick to Maxi… turn over and goal.

What are you doing drilling the ball into the centre from the back pocket ffs ANB, leads to a turn over and now goal

Still plenty of time for Suns

Hunty…. So much good so much good… zzaaappp wires cross and the play breaks down.

Thus the blindness 😉

Rowell is courageous. Im blind playing the Skool when Ddeerrrrrwwwaayyynnne sheeeyyss bull

With the stand rule I feel like as soon as the ump calls “stand” players need explode out of the line to drive it to a long and fast target. It just looks like we/all players haven’t quite worked out the advantage of it as yet.

Hey, he was a player from 25 years ago, how could he not know the minds of modern day players.

Rivers knee still not 100%, Gussy hurt his shoulder in that spinorama collision and Smith has hurt fingers on his “good” hand… looks like the injury luck has deserted us. The make shift defence is holding up well, midfield was slow to start and the fwds not quite able to hold the ball in as needed to keep the pressure on, great goal kicking though. Can’t wait to see how we “muscle up” this last half.

Gaahh stop making me feel nervous. I was sweet as a nut last week but seeing all of you nervous nelly's... I've said it in other threads but I'm mainly just fascinated to see how we handle each and every game and in game situation. Last week as I mentioned I said to my mate "this is a massive challenge, can't wait to see how we look to wrest control back and we did it with aplomb. This week, as others have said out ability to keep teams to low scores will hold us in good steed most weeks and this week will be no different. They don't have the defence or maturity in the mids to stick with us the whole game. Dees by 30 - 45.

Love the idea of the fans storming in to celebrate but wowser how easy for him/many to be crushed. The amount of kids on the fence prior to him kicking it, seeing people stumbling as they ran out, seeing Lance’s face and breathing eeekk. Congrats on the goals, you have give us fans some amazing moments.

He was DD, can’t wait to see the 1000! Hahahha Clarko drinking a Great Northen can.

Can’t wait for McCartin v Petracca thread again..
