  1. Yeah, I constantly try to coach that habit out of the my junior teams. I think they pick it up in Auskick! Slows their ability break from contests.
  2. That's great for recognition. But prefer a premiership cup this year.
  3. What I'm not sure about is the context. It has been stated he plagiarised some of his research, not how it may have affected his conclusions. This is what AFL policy is based upon. If his conclusions are supported by other researchers, the AFL doesn't have a real issue and the guidelines are fine. The second point, was he treating these players as an AFL employee or a private doctor. While the publicity is not good, if it was in private practice, not an AFL issue. Though listening from last night "on the couch" Kade, may have gotten very poor advice which meant he continued to play when he should have been resting. I wonder who McCartin. works with?
  4. Good choice for the big "C" in fantasy. But like both games this year, wary but quietly confident. We'll be building slowly over the year and the delay in bringing in Leaver/Hibberd shows its all about seasons planning, no panicking like in previous years to rush back player to try and win. The system works and is self supporting as new players slip into it. Been impressed with Smith and he's improving.
  5. That is a concern as she makes a difference with her drive and size.
  6. At the moment I read it for confirmation bias :). Plus it stops me having to enter their territory...
  7. how many were so obvious and missed. Blood freo and tipping, never get them right.
  8. For Port, are they now broken mentally after all the prelim loses and the smashing last year.
  9. OMFG how bad are Freo in delivering the ball into 50.... painful to watch.
  10. Thought he was gone years ago. He's had long enough without the ultimate success.
  11. Well done buddy. But what's with pawing all over his face as he. tried to move to the boundary. Really weird. Made sure my kids watched as its not something that happens much anymore, when was the last 100 goal season?
  12. Up until their 3rd qtr comeback I'm thinking we broke them last year. Someone shared a state of teams smashed in gf's failing the next year and the dogs seem to be following that path. But if they had kicked half of those points in the last qtr they would have won. Bad kicking is bad footy. The blues have a strong mid (with one young talent to return) and a great fwd (singular), the rest can be taken apart by a top side. Tigers/dogs are not that at the moment.
  13. Yeah especially compared to last Thursday. Its the dog supporters again I would reckon. Not turning out for games for some reason.
  14. Hey all, Just got this email from the club about their new rewards program. Good idea. https://membership.melbournefc.com.au/reward-recognition
  15. slightly different characters (I think)
  16. The delay could be a concern, but the club has more preparation time. Free could knock off the. crows, but in Adelaide it will be a challenge. Rather play them than crows if we make it.
  17. Never bad seeing the up and coming dons getting a lesson.
  18. As I teach my students ,Morris failed the grandma test..for digital posting Basically if you wont show or say it to your grandma don't put it online... its an easy rule. Though a few of my students used to retort of how wild and inappropriate their grandma was and would love it.. :)
  19. Voss make the rookie mistake with his club at birdie thinking they 1 last run at it and topped up. He's a good coach and will be much better this timed we'll see consistent improvement in the blues this year. They should make th e8 if they can sustain it.. Tigers, looking older and not able tout that pressure on for 4 qtrs. need an injection of younger players to run out games.
  20. Blues look organised and switched on...and gee the umpires like them.
  21. Pretty much a full backline!
  22. Go Dee's , enjoy the live game and I'll be watching Kayo in a few hours due to bloody meetings!
  23. The fittest players that can fit into the squad. Hopefully they go hard at each other this weekend.
  24. The positive is we have 2 weeks to reset and freshen up. Follow themes program in preparation. :)
  25. A win is a win... guess its good to have a tougher match just before the finals after a couple of easy games.
