  1. reckon the baker change will out of sparrow or harmes (really the viney change) probably sparrow after his vfl bog. think harmesy might need another game under his belt will be close but
  2. no problems......how are you off for socks and undies?
  3. an interesting observation of the tribunal defence was that the mfc did not challenge the original medium-impact classification. i can only assume the defence decided it was best to just focus on one issue rather than get tied up on 2 issues. Also if it was reclassified as accidental rather than careless then impact doesn't come into it. what is interesting re impact is that it appears the forearm/elbow high contact appears to have caused no injury and likely not any discomfort. According to the NM medical report there was no head injuries or concussion. It appears his onfield distress and having to leave the field assisted, was caused by contact to his kidney area in the collision and not caused by forearm/elbow. He apparently passed some blood in his urine and was set later for precautionary kidney scans and doctor said was expected to be able to play next week. If all this is true then impact of forearm/elbow had to be in the low band and not medium. from the hun report today: " The Dees accepted that Fritsch’s elbow to North Melbourne’s Tom Powell was high contact and medium impact." "There was microscopic blood detected in Powell’s urine sample after the match and he underwent a kidney scan on Monday, according to Kangaroos doctor Bianca Scotney’s medical report." "But Powell was cleared of concussion and suffered no ongoing headaches or jaw pain, with the kidney problem highlighting that more damage was done from Fritsch’s contact to the teenager’s midriff, rather than the elbow to his head." "Dr Scotney said kidney trauma was “unlikely” and Powell was a strong chance to play against Collingwood in Round 8."
  4. that would be plan mb, right?
  5. luxury....in my day we had no choice....rough as sandpaper and sharper edges than a barber's razor and you try to tell the young people of today that....they won't believe you
  6. 68 games actually....for threepeat
  7. and now for something completely normal bananas might fly....................pig rrrrz you say...............read on flying bananas
  8. excited? nah, what's to get excited about, still haven't beaten any side above us
  9. surely there is no way known the afl would take legal or otherwise advice from someone like slobbo
  10. you quoted $900 not $900k adonski and i wondered whether you made a mistake or were being a little bit naughty
  11. thanks for those spells, ds. hope the sacrifices weren't anybody important.
  12. couldn't find a link. does this apply from this week?
  13. any chance you could conjure up a few spells for fritta? maybe toss in a few sacrifices to appease the footy gods?
  14. weather forecast has improved coldish (15/16 deg at start of play), light wind, quite low probability of rain
  15. more my sarcometer needing its batteries recharged.....lol
  16. don't know ht, never been there.......very finnicky about contamination
  17. good frame shot fritta is low and forearm would normally would be a chest high self protection/fend off north player is also coming in low and hard and appears to be pushed by trac huge potential for head to head clash. push by trac could be argued to be contributory. conclusion: fritta didn't have much choice......toss in north player played out game with no lasting impact
  18. fair enough re other incident....was too blurry for my (aged) eyesight. strange it wasn't at least reviewed.
  19. trouble is, from the vision i've seen (very distant) there is no evidence of more than a free kick if you have better vision, i'd like a link
  20. and also protecting himself from a potential head clash he could sense he was in trouble of being injured.......just watch it frame by frame
  21. nah, even if you are right there is no proof to link the two incidents and it would look like a red herring and plain desperation. there is plenty of other better arguments to get fritta's action downgraded to a fine let's just hope that his advocate does a good job representing him
