no doubt there is a lot of psychological pressure involved during gameday but one of the benefits of practice, practice, practice (structured with supervision, analysis and follow-up, of course) is you develop a higher degree of instinctiveness and muscle memory, minimising the psychological game day nerves. it just staggers me we don't seem to apply an extensive scientific and professional approach to the most important skill ... i mean games are won or lost on goal kicking ... simple as that

the red and blue really suited him too ❤️

lindsay should challenge the fine and cite the kozzy example i'm fedup with the mro

was dillon visiting jeelong (rather than the reverse) last week because he wanted to check a hobby farm going at a great price?

i'm sure that can be sorted out. either by rescheduling, training, monitoring etc. you do realise we have ex player as goal umpire and he definitely umpires games of both his previous teams. additionally, all existing umpires would have been a supporter of a team and there is no hint they are scheduled to avoid any conflicts

binman, i would add to your good points, to say that in a professional umpiring era a good source for umpires would be retired players. many afl players when they retire have no new real career to pursue. the afl could fast track them through a training acadmy then start them off umpiring in the vfl until they are ready for afl. i'm sure there would be plenty of players grateful for this opportunity. they could even start some umpiring academy work in the final years before their retirement from playing. many players are already doing this sort of studying/work-experience in other fields in preparation for after-footy life.

i think the afl have set a barrier too high to jump over wouldn't need to be too much of a cynic to think this has been set up (by afl) to fail

a lot lot less than nick says most surveys i've seen are on very small numbers (e.g. 500) and probably quite unreliable for many reasons. however it is probably very tight as to what the public think

better things to die for, gl and it's only a make-believe ad 😀

is it just me, but this is a hard game to watch, just terrible footy

pity, i was looking forward to this

fcs, picket, he's nearly as old as od!

and no filth

secret code. hq wants flagmantle in finals.

who says that is all they take into account? spargs scapula injury was not known at mro time (even if it was done in a previous incident)

nothing to see here was just a football club act afl integrity unit just took receipt of a box of fresh wet lettuce stand by for afl to send a textbook message

yeah, coz cripps and curnow never get a free against and rack up frees for.

yeah, if he comes to melbourne with kalani the club need to find him a job

yeah, especially when richards stepped up to elite level last year when smith was out injured heck, even mccrae couldn't fit into their 2025 midfield even when treloar was injured (which is quite often)

and didn't one of her sisters move down here from darwin?

i'd love to know the name of morris's prosthodontist ... ... just so i could add his name to my list of dentists to avoid

forward line goal kicking fitness umpires depth

what's the bet they go back to waverley?

afl lookalike ????

maybe we could get amiss cheaper. he's still very young and plenty of upside and talent. but he is a wa boy, so treacy (bendigo) might be a better target?
