She's now reached 34 years old, this is a prime age for a lot of marathoners as it can take that long to build endurance over years of training. Funny that Wikipedia says "Her brother is former Port Adelaide Football Club player Jack Trengove".

I guess saying she "won" doesn't necessarily imply she received a medal. I quite like "flagged" and "cupped". 😄

I think you get a bonus when due to "ruthlessness" the opposition is called "hapless".

There was only one bit of brightness in Mark Neeld's coaching and that was the 2012 match against Essendon when we were bottom and they were top, and we won.

The rule should be that if a player is subbed off, they can't play the following week. That would limit it to serious injuries.

While they're all arguing about Pearce and Carey, the real dinosaur continues to "roam".

Low to mid-20s. Not exactly Darwin or Cairns.

On selection: Player X needs a run of games in the firsts to get the feel for the game. After an average first game in: Player X was awful and should be dropped, and never play for Melbourne again!

Nah ... I think everyone needs to change the colour of their jocks. That'll do it.

JVR might want to go back to WA if he's held back long-term at Casey while BBB and TW occupy the key forward positions. If we were to win the 2022 premiership, maybe we don't need Walker?

So far in this thread it's been suggested that just about every player should "go back to Casey" for a spell to get better, "improve their craft", or recover ... even Max. Yeah, that would work.

The story on the MFC website says rookie list for 2023, then upgrade to the main list in 2024.

True. I'm totally over "Peptides", "Essendrug", "Meth Coast" and "Filth". And the teeth jokes. Boring. Be like Clarry ... be decent, nice and give them a hand up!

Down by two goals in the 1st quarter: "We lost it at the selection table"

Then in the last quarter they called a 20-metre kick in the Saints backline "not 15". Sometime they'll end up putting a grid on the field to help adjudicate it because the umpires' estimations are so bad. The goalposts are 7m apart, so it's only twice that plus a metre.

The only show I can tolerate is On The Couch, and solely because of Brown and Riewoldt.

They ended up 18-15 in favour of the Lions, but at half time they were 14-7.

Perth and the Eastern States are in the same country.

What a shocking decision the free kick to Dunkley was.

I think Bedford deserved better than "some party tricks".

Collingwood has their "Do Better" response to racism. They need a "Do Better" response to women.

The Saints played a very average game. What's worse is that Essendon just kicked 107 points against them.

Here's something to observe then ... go to any major alcohol retailer (e.g. Dan Murphy, BWS) or specialty retailer and search on "non-alcoholic". There are dozens now being promoted and non-alcoholic drinks are becoming increasingly popular. There's non-alcoholic bars springing up in Melbourne. It's a health or "wellness" thing to reduce alcohol consumption.

And with well-managed recovery, training intensity and some match simulation in training, it's not as though Salem is throwing away his crutches and going straight to half back.

At 194cm not tall enough. 🙂
