  1. So might cat's eyes or a torch ? (admire the effort )
  2. Plainly ridiculous. Umpire causes own demise...fine player Player causes contact ...play on..wtf
  3. Can't agree at all. He took the ball in play and purposefully ( very ) kicked it straight at the goals. That you might' consider it a fluke or question its relative probably is either irrelevant or some might argue weight worth acknowledging in relation to the result. Your converse ideal is actually what you describe " a piece of play" that might end in a deserving goal. If it was a continuous action it might indeed be worthy of goty. If a kick independent then its just a kick, its merits are its own.
  4. I just wonder. Though eack knock is given its time for recovery it seems like hes not out playing footy again for 5 mins before incurring another concussion. This seems to me to beyond the stretches of aberration to any norm of probability of a player experiencing such injury.
  5. Interesting game coming up. Battle of two teams who took apart the Crows. I wonder if Arden Street has sufficient clout in the guts ( still standing ) to thwart ours ? No doubt they'll be trying to win the clearance count ( as will we ) Waite wil be back for them adding potency to their kicking ( lacking on weekend ) Ironically the Swans took apart the Roos much the manner they had the Crows by controlling the middle, winning stoppages and spreading better. If we can back up the same game style as displayed sat then we should overcome them. Funny season though.
  6. A question to the knowledgeable: Would concussions ( repetitive ) amass to accumulative damage as I'm given to understand it is in Boxing ?
  7. Gee, no one reacted. Not a single real time query. Goal ump quickly signals goal. Field umpire ...nuttin Simply was a goal. A brilliant snap.. As to all the sore losers and whingers ...lolololololol
  8. You'd expect Hogan to be in but then it's almost about expecting the unexpected. He might not play again ( this week). Only training will reveal any clue.
  9. no food or drink.. what a joke Port welcome to their farce. Gil of course 'tweaking the english language' in hope of dressing up a pigs ear. Hope we never go there ( again ) hope we can dispense with the NT games for points also.
  10. he was just quietly checking for the nearest "exit"
  11. Not to be unwarrantedly cynical but am now even more curious as to the team selection and game methodology that will be brought to bear against Norf !!
  12. would have been hungry though....where was the follow up second banana I ask ?
  13. For those that don't follow Titus O'Reiley here's an extract from his " The Monday Kneejerk Reaction" enjoy:) Adelaide (66) v Melbourne (107) Clayton Oliver may be the greatest person who has ever lived. I’m a bit biased, but the idea of Melbourne having a real football star is something I thought would never happen again, like having someone love me. While love remains elusive, a sure-handed clearance machine has arrived, and I am finally starting to believe that the Demons are heading somewhere that isn’t painful. The Crows were meant to bounce back from a terrible outing in Tasmania and thump the Dees but instead struggled to handle opponents not letting them do whatever they want to do. Rory Sloane was tagged by Bernie Vince, and Sloane’s teammates took one look at Vince’s aggression and said, ‘You’re on your own there Rory.’ Time and time again, the Crows players couldn’t handle the defensive pressure of the Demons. Neither could the umps, with Vince taking out one of them and the fill in going down with cramp. It meant the game got down to two field umpires, instantly halving the number of umpiring mistakes. Does this mean the Dees have finally clicked and the Crows are done? In this crazy season who knows? This season is drunk. - See more at: https://titusoreily.com/afl/monday-knee-jerk-reaction-afl-round-eight-1#sthash.IXqLcwDs.dpuf
  14. everything tasted sweeter on Sunday There were free Bananas to participants at the Mothers Day Classic on sunday. A very switched on event !!
  15. yes we seem to have been worried about the fall of the ball etc and crowded the paddock...result...no one got it ( well no one ina red and blue guernsey that is ) Less ...is...MORE
  16. as promised...50 to dland irrespective of win lose or draw Go Dees
  17. Has absolutely nothing to do with his age, his potential, his career, what he could or couldn't be for the MFC or any club. It might just have a smidge to do . . with his current and ongoing cerebral health. If the propers docs' best advice is... Son, it's like this... Well then it's like this. A speedy and complete recovery to you Gus.
  18. At least one redeeming quailty... It's not us
  19. Might be around the corner watching in a bar
  20. Sometimes our path is not the one we choose but the one otherwise shown.
  21. Golly. Get a BOJ sponsor and shlt happens
  22. Has come full circle in a fashion. Maybe he stops now
