Sideshow Bob

Players these days don't have the same sense of self protection as10,20 30+years ago. The rules have taken out the bump which often was about protecting yourself as much hurting your opponent. This collision 10 years ago doesn't happen - both players most likely turn a little sideways to brace for contact instead of May running straight on and Evans leading with his face. Neither player gets hurt. I have taught my 12 year old son to protect himself in the contest. Its really the only way to stop yourself from being injured like Evans was. AFL rules, MRO, the tribunal system are to blame for his injuries and head office needs to be held accountable. Being officiating in the manner they have for the past 5-10 years they have completely changed the way it gets played so people lead with their head into contests. I can't stand seeing this. Players need to be able to protect themselves first and foremost

And then take it to the court system for restraint of trade. Unlawfully preventing our player from his rightful position at work due to corporate bullying.

Appeal and if that fails just play him anyway if we lose the 4 points for an unregistered player or don't think would give a flying [censored]

Docherty retiring next game. Wowee. What a crazy career. More lows than highs. 3 x ACL, 2 x cancers, and a life at carlton. Was going to post during the game day thread about being angry and [censored] off about a carlton set shot that pretty much ended our night but then it was Doch having the shot and to be honest I was actually OK with if. Great bloke had a [censored], really [censored] few years out of his 14 in the league. Wish him the best - perhaps we would be wise in finding him a post playing role at our club and teach our boys about resilience

Seriously how many times can he stick his knee with all his weight into people - multiple multiples not even including the petracca incident. That is disgraceful from Moore - obviously deliberate- after Petracca he knows just dangerous his knees are. This should be absolutely called out. Michael Christian is a [censored] cheating [censored] when it comes to his beloved Collingwood

26-16 cutrently And a lot of [censored] frees in there for then

Sinking mfcss feeling here

On current form worth every dollar on his sparkly contract

Thought he played for old scotch in the 90s......

How is that actually a free kick. Both players going for ball

The jeffo experiment is done

Need to attack the footy Riv. Not wait for it

Great... great tackle kolt

Sublime Sells candy wide. Nails koz Shades of Robbie

Just got to the pub (up at Mt hotham in true demon style) Thought they had the wrong game on - was going what the [censored] are gws doing on the tv

Come on doggies

Just pay the mark

Zorko hatched that why no free

Frampton.... although managed to keep Brisbane's gun full back to zero goals 🤣

One handed massive throw from Lachie Neale not paid.... home town arm chair ride from the umps

Fritta for Harry McKay. You heard it here first. Solves problems. We both lose one set of problems (..... and inherit another)

For the love of God please make Kelli underwood shut up. Incorrect so often - no one correcting her (must be a directive from above) Yelling out her barracking for north. Shes just horrible as a commentator

The whole qld academy access for father sons is an absolute farce. Just reading luke Hodge's kid is part of Brisbane lions academy. Can't imagine hime going anywhere other than Hawthorn, just like Kalani shouldn't be anywhere else but the dees. Thought the academies were about growing the game to people and areas that aren't traditional... as opposed to hoarding players that are destined regardless

Well footy was enjoyable again for a little while. A couple of those early misses go through and the gap might have been just a bit m7ch for the crows to will themselves back into it. JVR taking grabs, Pickett being super dangerous, Melky in best form of career. Absolute signs of life

Vote 1 - Knuckles McVee. Came in with zero expectations and has smashed it out of the park since. Cane see him being a Nick Maxwell type captain - backline focussed, team focussed, someone internally respected that isn't a 'star', not the best player on the list but someone absolutely 100% dependable.
