Wife.( In other room)..what ya watching ? Footy Why no sound ? Safer for telly

What are the odds the MRP will let the jumper punch slide

Mute button .... wonderful thing

epitomises Sydney...Cola's gone flat.... no fizz anymore

I think so ....

Id go one further They only expert at providing stats in line with their metrics. Some are absolutes. Marks kicks handballs. Frees Many are subjective. Tackles, kicking efficiency and the like. They provide numbers. Not overly interested in numbers.

Could it be we simply kick too high ?

I agree. Despite my frustrations Omac may well morph into a handy regular defender. I think hes better off developing as opposed struggling. A Mackenzie type would provide a fillip but i still see what he would bring and what Omac might provide as different roles. If we are indeed (as a club) seeing the FB role being an inhouse development ( whoever it may be ) then a fillip is ideal. If our strategy requires a FB player outright then Id definitely look a Lever. Taylor and Co seem good at finding players. Will be interesting to see where we go on this .

Interesting about ground size at Alice. Hadn't realised. Would have thought they'd 'bring it in' a tad. Thanks @Demon77

referring to years ( and our chances at/in finals )

Iva..I think , as often the case, its not those on the front line at fault. Invariably they are left to work with one arm tied behind backs and one leg in a brace. The MAS debacle as with Lindt cafe and so many other issues/circumstances is institutional . As they say a fish rots from the head down

lets not

Might depend on whether we are looking short term or longer term

"out speeding,drink driving etc and fined for doing 43 in a 40 zone and the bigger problems like carjacking,home invasion,ice and nutjobs are not dealt with. " easier ??

I disagree iva..he plainly provided the more important issues

In reality...and I agree with your points , we'll only know at the end of the h/a

Our dilemma reminds me of a person on a treadmill.. Its moving at X and person atop is running at X... result...standing still ( effectively ).. Person gets better and starts upping to Y....only to have the treadmill similarly increase demands to Y...net result.... no change Which metric do we go by to describe our situation ? we are better...yet no further advanced !!

this I agree with totally the rest is a positional commentary and one can write one for either side of the nutbaggery we call government

Jurisdictions ..SOPs etc would/Should have been well and truly in place and one would hope tested and practiced. I don't see how that's really the issue. An ability/inability to act efficiently seems the topic.

The jurisdiction on all major airports is Federal. They would have been in control ( or not as may be ) The Vicpol unit will have been requested ( eventually) if no other resource available in time. Areas of concern. How did AFP take so long to get act together ? Why were Vicpol only informed AFTER plane landed. Wtf were the Feds doing in meantime. From all accounts the relevant info was there for the asking. Why did it take so long for a tactical response unit...to actually respond in a meaningful way. Please dont kid me they had trouble finding gear ffs. ( and if they did....oi vey !! ) Would have been piece of pizz for authorities to have eyes and ears from inside craft. This still has ballz up all over it for mine. What we're hearing is spin...not substance.

Yep...was like the cogs finally slipped into gear and wr got traction. Still very all over the shop before that. All those 'good structures' and 'good efforts' just weren't gelling. Then ...... click (thankfully )

Id just keep looking

Hope you're right Bin. Could certainly use a Ruck ( real one )

Generically the type perhaps Individually , not the pick.

More a spoonful Its just data ppl spruiking their wares. Lever is more than handy , you just have to observe. Those folk that make a coin from snake oil mathematics have self interest at stake and is always handy for them to roll out whatever fits on the day. I quite like Lever....for HOW he plays.
