  1. We have seen players pick up the ball and run 5 steps, or drag their opponent 5 steps to the boundary, with no problem and other times, a player takes possession of the ball as he crosses the boundary and is pinged. The one consistent thing in the AFL, is the lack of consistency.
  2. Kozzie doing the same action gets 3-4 without any question. Hunter as mentioned got suspended for the same thing.
  3. We are currently 2 short on our list without Gus and Smith, usual issue of injuries aside. As they were senior players, not just backups, it is more significant.
  4. I hope he gets a run at it and is left in the side. He will improve and the experience of Anzac eve big crowd will be invaluable to him and a couple of other youngsters. Kozzie back might add some opportunities too.
  5. Don’t we add Smith to that list as being unavailable. Our list is 2 down before injuries.
  6. The only hope of him getting to us is to not have a great year and be selected outside top 40.
  7. Can’t I just use Malibu and Diet Coke or Khalua on the rocks?
  8. Anyone who suggests trading or demoting Clarry, who is playing injured, has to be joking or trolling. Clarry is the best contested ball player I have ever seen, in well over 60 years of watching footy.
  9. Playing North atm isn't much of a game.
  10. 3 games in 13 days, injured players playing and a few good ones missing and the poorest of disposal and that is what you get.
  11. And when we win it we give it back.
  12. It might have been the one started by that dummy Redleg.
  13. I hope all Dee’s fans are realistic about Kolt in his first game and aren’t disappointed if he doesn’t have a great game. On what we have seen he has the talent to make it, but may need time as most young players do. Then again, he could turn it on.
  14. No it's not. Correct me if I am wrong but at Casey we have use of the Casey ground and Facility, not the whole ground area of the entire sporting fields. At Caulfield we could have 2-3 ovals with one MCG size and a full training and administrative base, with even a low level grandstand built outside the track, giving us the best facilities in the AFL and in the central part of the Melbourne metro area. Casey will never have that. I agree with your point the sooner the better though.
  15. No, not damn hard on them, merely stating what would be their likely preference, given where most of them live. They are entitled to have a preference on where they would prefer to train, not that it would always be accommodated. They might also have a preference which club they would like to play with and that also is not always possible.
  16. Caulfield will likely be less restricted for room than Casey, with less parking issues and more room for buildings. More to the point, the MFC don't want to be based solely at Casey and I suspect the players would agree. It is great for what it currently is and will be, an adjunct to a permanent, more centrally located home base.
  17. Credit to Goodie in blooding kids.
  18. A warning to all of you wonderful people and good friends. A disgustingly named thread has been started on DL. It names the unnamed villain of this thread. Please for your own mental health and well being don’t visit it. I am shocked the mods have allowed this offensive thread to be started and continued.
  19. What a disgustingly named award and thread.
  20. I accept the Kozzie suspension, but not Toby Greene smashing a player’s head into the ground, after he got rid of the ball and no penalty at all. Which had more potential to cause an injury? System is f…ed.
  21. I don’t know if Kozzie can get off, probably not, but Toby Greene’s smashing of Mac Andrew’s head into the turf, after he had gotten rid of the footy, was far, far worse and dangerous and had the very real possibility of causing a serious injury. How the hell was he completely let off? The MRO, without any consistency of adjudicating, is little more than an embarrassing joke.
  22. Ralph changed his tune the other night and said Petty is more likely to stay now. One of them will be right.
