The Lobster Effect

The Dees face mask is so 2021!

Just to clarify is Jordan the sub? 
 

I’m reading medi sub is named on the day?

Yes, announced one hour before the game

Footy Classified.

Lloyd and Wilson tipped Demons.

Lyon and Triplechins tipped Bulldogs.

Good, don't want to be tipped by 99% of people!

JJ got to play a quarter and a half of a final against Geelong (admittedly the game was already over by then) whereas Hunt has never played a final as he missed out in 2018.

Given our ruck stocks are pretty solid at the moment, and for the next 3-5 years with Max, Luke and Bradke, and we appear to be in our premiership window, recruiting another prospective ruck whose unlikely to impact for 2-3+ years seems unwise, especially if we need to spend most of our draft capital to do so.

I don't think Bradtke will get another contract and clubs seem to have 3 rucks on their lists...

Very happy to see a brownlow medalist from the club I played for! Congratulations  Ollie 

You played for Port? 😀

Update 12

• Woowee recons no changes.

I believe it's Woey although it was Wow-ey in his Brownlow year

Doesn't get enough love. 

Immense.

I take it he doesn’t wear a mouth guard? If that’s the case it’s quite surprising. 

I read that he was actually wearing a mouthgard when it happened, they don't actually prevent this happening 100% if you cop a decent whack

Would we? I think Hawthorn will be looking to cash in on his last years of potentially decent footy. They’re not struggling to clear cap space.

Yeah I agree, he did win their best and fairest last year

Who thinks we should strategically open a Wuhan style wet market in Perth after the prelims?

When is the Brownlow count and Coaches awards??

Coaches award announced tomorrow night.

I don't think the brownlow nights been locked in but if we have a bye between the prelims and the granny it'll be that week to maximise attention/ratings.

Much prefer to play Brisbane than Dogs. 

Even though Brissie are in way better form?

If we end up winning tonight would we rather play the Lions or the out-of-form Bulldogs? I think I've answered my own question.

Need a miracle from the Eagles.

 If the lockdown continues and elimination finals can’t be played, the plan is then to have a preliminary final weekend involving the top four teams with first to play fourth and second to play third for a spot in the grand final.

Would be frustrating for those regular Casey players to miss out on finals by 0.07%

Captain Obvious. No club wants to relocate.

Covid will give the AFL an excuse to push the can down the road. 

The sentimental part of me thinks Tassie deserves a team but on the other hand it'll statistically make it harder for the Dees to win a flag (especially since surely they'd introduce a 20th team down the track after Tassie so they can bring in tv dollars from the extra match)

Didn't he play on the weekend? I understand he has twice tested negative but if he has to isolate for 14 days despite the negative result why aren't his teammates or the opposition in isolation too?

They all would have had to isolate if he returned a positive result. Luckily for him and the bulldogs he didn't. 

It would have been awesome playing their reserves side!

I woke up this morning to a lengthy text from NSW health stating that I had recently worked at site with at least 3 confirmed cases. My family all got Covid tests this morning, if they get a negative they are free to go back to normal but I must remain in isolation for 14 days regardless. 

Good luck!

We have someone’s second round pick I think. 

According to this we have Brisbane's second round pick and Hawthorn's third round pick.

Tmac is definitely back!

In ripping form. Has he actually got back to his highs of 2018 or does he still have a little bit to go?

I love him, but his set shot at goal is utter trash. Don’t tell me this kid can curl a ball 189 degrees from 87 meters out in torrential rain over his right shoulder but he can’t kick a regulation goal. Choco has to sort that out quick smart. 

I think he can barely make 45 on a set shot so he misses a few going for extra distance...

Anyone else who could make AA? Ben Brown with a ripper 2/3 season?

Cam pederson after we pick him up in the mid season draft

The chewing gum was the highlight

This year's longer quarters match his endurance advantage over most players.
