The Lobster Effect

Morton tagging Ablett - interesting....

Ablett's got 12 possessions at the 22min mark... hmmm

Glad that geelong won in the end, the love for hawthorn would have been nauseating

31 points.

thaipantsman, how much time have you spent in thailand?

That article draws a parallel that simply doesn't exist in it's very first sentence....

Yeh the headline is so sensationalist! You learn a lot about journalism when you follow footy.

lets hope the twins are better at footy than the cockatoo-collins boys...

The icing on the cake - Jurrah out for another 2 weeks after indications he would play for Casey this week

Yeh, I like how Mahoney said “Liam’s ankle has recovered sufficiently,”.... but he's still two weeks away from playing for Casey!

interesting..... neeld has decided not to give petterd any more chances.

he'll have plenty of time to chill at surfers beach next year...

Surely Howie would be rapt Melbourne picked him up in the first place, knowone knew who he was before we gave him a go, hope he remembers if it wasn't for MFC he would be starting on site with me at 7am!!!

he was an electrician right?

We have waited all this year Nasher for one quarter

2013 will need to be very very good

yeh but you could almost say the same thing about big max gawn and we're not considering getting rid of him...

Too late guys, he's off to Box Hill:

Surely Cloke isn't staying at the pies now. Where he ends up who knows? If the bombers and Carlton miss the 8 and the Pies lose the flag and Cloke at least there will be some positives from this season.

yeh ablett, ward, scully, etc all put off contract negotiations until the end of the season and then ended up leaving.

are there any recent examples of players doing this but staying at their original club?

Errrr, have you heard of the blood rule? Any idea why that was introduced?

I wasn't saying the blood rule isn't important, I was just making a comparison to another 'brain fade' type offence.

I think it was introduced in the 90s when there was slightly greater fear of HIV than now and of course the risks of catching HIV or hepatitis on the footy are almost negligible but of course it has to stay, its just a part of good OHS and most major contact sports in the world have the rule in place, so it's always going to stay and for good reason..

Is howe's offence any worse than josh hunt stomping on someone's hand ? Hunt escaped with only a fine

nathan buckley got a one week suspension when he wiped his blood on cameron ling 10 years ago.

probably 2 weeks for howe? need to see the footage

not the most dangerous looking forward line around....

i take back my comment as i just saw the gws forward line:

HF: Rhys Palmer, Nick Haynes, Sam Frost

F: Gerald Ugle, Israel Folau, Mark Whiley

not the most dangerous looking forward line around....

Re the Ziebell 4 weeks...

We need to start teaching our kids when the ball is there to be won stop first make sure you don't hurt anyone than try and get it#afljoke

they normally put about 15min worth of different segments on the web

but they haven't updated it yet, sometimes it takes until a few days after the show

Some of the highlights of this week's injury

More like lowlights!

running goal in 2010

[media=]

Ironically his injury makes it much less likely he'll be delisted.

why? do you mean its because we're scared of looking bad for delisting an injured player?

Has anyone considered that we are only one game (and %) away from last?

its really like 2 games difference as the percentage gap is pretty big (7% with gc and 20% with gws)

good the suns won, takes the pressure off us when we play them!

Liam Jurrah no longer 2 - 4!!!

hey alpha... awesome that jurrah is finally recovering from the ankle, that is. Taken so long, it has.

thanks http://www.yodaspeak.co.uk

Do it next week!!!!!

haha yeh that'd be good
