I'm thinking the fateful 2017 season?

Burned into the memory that one.

Makes it pretty black and white. Never used to think possessions backwards counted but I guess they do.

Definitely. And in a turnover the phase between the stoppage and clearance doesn't count? Wondering if a clearance is the first effective disposal out from the pack (eg a quick handball) or the first possession to territory advantage?

If the showdown is anything to go by Port are starting to run out of steam. Taking on an Adelaide side full of run is just a sign of what is to come in finals and they look like they have led in their legs currently.

This is what is throwing me. Is a clanger the same as a turnover? Edit: They have both on Footywire. Turnover: Losing possession to the opposition in general play. General play excludes events that happen between a stoppage and the clearance. Clanger: An error made by a player resulting in a negative result for his side. Disposal clangers are any kick or handball that directly turns the ball over to the opposition. Frees and 50-metre penalties against, No Pressure Errors, Dropped Marks and Debits are all included in clangers.

Some good thesaurus use wouldn't be the worst thing, yes.

I'm sick of seeing the word 'rest'.

Why else would they be an ex? 😉

That's pretty much it. I didn't think Kozzie got him high the prior opportunity was the only question for me and the arm raise was effectively his prior.

For the 2009 Queen's Birthday game I sat behind the goals at the city end with my then Pies gf. During the warm up shots at goal I looked down for a couple of seconds, probably to look at my phone and the next thing I know there is a Sherrin footy right there in my lap! It landed there perfectly as if I’d chest marked it. No pain, no nothing. Amazing luck, you couldn't make it up. I remember Jim Stynes had caught a ball in the crowd earlier that season so I raised it up and yelled that I was Jimmy to everyone!

They should penalise them percentage.

I've never reserved an MCC seat before but planning to for the Carlton game. Wish me luck.

I'll give it time, time up forward.

If they are hurt then rest, if the suggestion is to rest because they've played a lot and might be tired then no. That's where the silly stuff comes in.

We all love the great man. Live every moment he has left in the game in the fullest that you can because these generational guys don't come along often. Our club didn't stand for much and was bereft of character. Forever burned in my mind are Jimmy's words that this kid was going to be something different and challenge the status quo, he saw something in him that he couldn't see himself at the time. I'm not religious but something or someone smiled on us when they gave us Max.

Need to pin this.

For sure and we've seen in the last decade that clubs apply the 'win at all costs' mentality to varying degrees.

At least you're 30! Plenty of youth left!

And also being defenders they would be used to being accountable and can do a job watching opposition intercept defenders!

You are right on the money. How about Zorko moaning to the media about it afterwards in a similar fashion to last year? Just on Touk though he very much deserved maximum votes. His job on Lachie Neale was the best I've seen this year on any star mid, kept him to 17 touches and got 29 for himself. A massive part of their win and how they have missed him dearly.

Rando question but is this DE% (Or reverse DE%) or did you work this out from turnover to possession ratio? I wish they would drill down on this stat a bit more.

Always said you were a great guy, ask anyone! 😀

So the first section of the SCAT5 test is looking for red flags and these include neck pain, double vision, tingling, seizure, vomiting etc. I'd have thought common sense would have prevailed and that migrane could stand alongside most of these red flags. Without knowing how they operate and not wanting to pass too much judgement, the optics still look terrible.
