  1. Wonder how many coaches will be coaching from the bench in pre season matches?

    Rest in peace great man. 5 flags in 150 odd games, definition of decorated career and he was a vital part of that success.
  3. I think I've learned more about stoppages structures this year than any other. Sweepers and quadrants etc. But in regards to this it wouldn't surprise me if the better tap ruckmen were able to do this at will, it's not always about having the ball.

    As you've probably heard, Joe Rogan has been having some guests on his show lately that have been providing counter points to the mainstream information and advice being given regarding Covid-19 and vaccination. This has recently resulted in artists such as Neil Young and Joni Mitchell requesting their music to be pulled from Spotify and other artists are starting to follow suit. I'm interested to hear from others on this. Who do you believe is in the wrong? Rogan? Spotify? Neil Young? Something else? Quite often you will hear people come out and say Rogan has a huge platform to influence and is doing a disservice to people by promoting bad pseudo science but Rogan himself is claiming that he's just the guy asking questions. Keen to hear what people think.

    Went on a bit of a Live Aid binge late last year and came across Dire Straits performance from the same year at Wembley. I've since watched it a few times, one of their better live shows on Youtube I reckon.
  7. I've never heard more people say they watch football on mute these days.
  8. Not sure but it's certainly one of Dwayne Russell's go to lines!
  9. People forget that Balls was on the receiving end often. Gave as good as he got.
  10. Love a bit of shake and bake!
  11. Great vids, cheers!
  12. What a night, smile with every thought of it now.
  13. Rinse and repeat..

    Yeah not sure I agree with that entirely. There were a few things that prevented us from winning the football game but the D wasn't one of them. Bosa and Warner balled out hard, D-Line hung in and while the secondary wasn't perfect they covered reasonably well for the most part. The only thing I would have liked was our rushers to get to Stafford more, obviously easier said than done. They held the Rams to 20 points, if I didn't watch it and you told me we kept that offense to 20 I would have assumed the Niners won. In the case of Kyle Shanahan I do have some questions and is the closest I'd come to delivering the choke tag to. There is now a critical mass of data showing the weird mode he spins into in clutch times. 6 mins left with the lead we go pass, pass, pass, 4th and 2 we take a delay of game with timeouts to go (Mind you Rams had none left at this point), running that stupid play with Trent Williams in motion that has not worked once and lastly Deebo touched the ball once in that last quarter, inexcusable not to use the skilled players when the game is on the line. In the case of Jimmy G maybe, I'd like my 137 million dollar QB to be able to make at least one play when it counts on those last 3 drives/to Emanuel Sanders in the Super Bowl/to wide open Kittle numerous times but that's about it. Saying we choked also takes away from the performance of the Rams, they outplayed us in the end, plain and simple.

    I kept re-creating it in my head on a walk this morning and trying to convince myself that he caught it. Gee wiz.

    Not going to be saying a lot just yet as theres still a bit of heartbreak. Congratulations to @Gorgorothand the Rams, they played their hearts out today. Defense handled our run game and they found a little of their own. But when it came right down to the do or die moments for QBs to stand there and hit the dart board, Stafford made the plays and Jimmy didn't. Full credit. Tartt's dropped interception will stick in the mind for a very long time..
  18. Crossing everything I got. No doubting the guy's first preference is to be at MFC for a long time, if they make it happen it will be something to behold.

    My plan of attack today is to follow along with the AFC score updates and then media blackout begins at 10:30am until 5 when I bowl over any women and children en-route to the car park. Have a good day peeps, looks like we've got a football game in Arrowhead..

    I think a few mergers were 'signed and sealed' in the 80s. Most likely on a napkin.

    Saw that report circulating and a couple of journos have commented. I'll be sad if that was the last game of his career but there's never a perfect time.

    I’m doing it, need to go for broke! Big chance for Burrow to go next level, tough but the possibility does exist in this universe I reckon.
