I can attest to how serious spleen injuries can be. Happened to my brother. Head trainer told him to not be so soft and play through the pain. He played out the game, got home and collapsed. If my sister hadn't been at home he would have died on the spot. Took him to er and straight into operating room. Spleen totally removed. missed rest of season.

what a horrible display of afl man on man congestion tackleorama holding the ball lotto umpiring fantasies i hope this in not where the game is heading with the new rules

he didn't build the mcg in 6 days though and as far as the sins bit goes, he obviously forgot about afl house and umpires

nah, bit of a coaches pet. not a patch on his old man.

yes, definitely take them with you can teach them the art of snake catching at the same time

what would you do if jesus christ came to hawthorn? (sign outside hawthorn church) move peter hudson to centre half forward (graffito response - probably demonstone)

geez, i'd settle for anyone who can play within 20m of their opponent

wonder if there will be any learnings out of today?

has the whole team got the flu or a food bug? so bad ... gotta be a reason

i blame jack watts

fanning must have been pretty special too. left vfl too young as well

8/10 but a lot more games this round, so let's wait and see

more AI of course and AI will be like social media - lots of good things ... but lots of bad things too eventually you won't be able to tell if text, a voice, a picture or a video is real or generated. nothing will be unequivocally real, the truth will become an archaic concept that historians and philosophers will ponder over

despite my cynicism, so far (1st half) the rule change seems to be working well and scrimmages being stopped much quicker than previous and consistency better. lot more game time to go this round so i'll hold off until then

companies that need to use credit cards do it hands off in conjunction with a third party and encryption no need to store credit cards locally in any readable form

no, they said they give encouragement chats during play but they said they were not decision specific like yes/no

stand up the boy who was surprised

i think all afl staff and executives need to go on an education course about the meaning and importance of transparency. long overdue.

i'm looking forward to a round of extreme fan outrage social media will be in overdrive

can add bouncing the ball. full backs kicking out are the worst offenders ... and they also get the extra protected zone

mid season rule change decided on a couple of days analysis after saying no problem here to be implemented within less than a week scores of umpires to be "re-educated" (when, how?) what could go wrong?

what have you been drinking, goffy. i need some of that, in fact copious amounts

northern academy rules don't have the same restrictions as southern nga rules there has never been a top 20 or 40 rule for them

sheer bliss
