    that seems a bit dumb
  2. maybe if you were living in the 70's, bub......these days.....?
  3. the real problem is probably not even plain old anxiety, knowing how clubs like to spin things......and i doubt it is a "well-being issue" whatever the f that is. to suggest he is not being penalised by being omitted from playing stretches credibility, especially when he turns up for training this week. seems no-one these days knows what a spade is.......
  4. have a good book handy (and a bottle or two)
  5. room for 4 more (another 2 on rhs?)
  6. far too much common sense, dj
  7. lol - might cause some fanatics to want to revise some previous close grand finals and recalculate things like the coleman medal etc has got merit intellectually, but can't see it happening
  8. Party boys don’t fear the AFL’s illicit drugs policy, writes Jon Ralph
  9. i don't think that's true a bat/pad noise (or bat/ground) can be the same as a bat/ball noise. they are generally separated by the synchronising of the video with snicko as it is rare that both occur at exactly the same sub second (i.e. video frame) and of course cricket has hot spot to further clarify
  10. yes and no. I'm sure when a doctor examines a possible acl injury he/she doesn't ask the player for permission to tell the coach what his/her diagnosis was. So, somewhere there is a line drawn where he/she would ask for permission
  11. it's not just crowd noise, players close by will make noise and even hit/touch the goal posts........but we shall see. i hope they have better slo-mo cameras to synchronise with the audio as in cricket. the current camera frames per second (and resolution) wouldn't seem to be adequate
  12. with all the other surrounding noises, good luck with that one bound to be contentious a controversial, but i think contrived conflict is the latest media trope and let's face it the media run the afl now
  13. and let's not forget all the drama of cam mccarthy standing out for a year to get to the wanchors only to fizzle on the field since
  14. vale ian and condolences to family will be long remembered and revered for his contributions to the mfc legend
  15. you mean his mates have mental health problems too?

    on first reading there i thought you said "Gil featured wearing", then my senses clicked in.....phew
  17. wouldn't be #3 would it?
  18. so what is he? web search has come up with 176cm, 177cm, 180cm and 183cm. is he rubber-man?

    i thought it was a play on drinking own bathwater (with the donkey laughing)
  20. maximus and gus next would make sense, to keep the midfield together
  21. it's not a new 2019 rule.....just a one off crap interpretation it hinged mainly around high contact, medium impact medium impact has meant an injury (concussion etc) or could not play on.....but not in this case....go figure
  22. and mummy.....oh wait....
  23. yes, his only sin was positioning himself maybe a few cm too high so he just clipped the chin (or neck, doesn't matter which as still above the shoulder) but the contact to that was minimal as described before. so for that minor detail he should have got a reprimand and fine, methinks if we are going to appeal next time then we need to go in with some big guns and a better rehearsed story
