I heard he was benched during the Casey game, and copped a public spray from the Coach. Then was sent into the forwardline. Was he sulking, from not playing in Perth ?

How a mid-season draft fancy got out of 'a pretty dark spot' "Riordan, an inside midfielder capable of bursting away from stoppages, started the 2018 season with one goal in mind: to be an AFL footballer by November. There was even optimistic talk inside the Stingrays camp that the now 19-year-old might end up being a first or second-round draft pick." https://www.afl.com.au/news/2019-05-24/how-a-midseason-draft-fancy-riordan-got-out-of-a-pretty-dark-spot "He is averaging 19.7 disposals – including amassing 48 possessions across his past two games – five inside 50s and 4.7 tackles in the NAB League in 2019. " "Riordan's "fantastic" form, in Flanigan's words, has helped renew AFL interest in him, with Adelaide and Sydney believed to be among his potential suitors. He was one of 25 NAB AFL Mid-Season Rookie Draft hopefuls to be medically assessed on Wednesday, as per request from multiple AFL clubs."

simply brilliant.

Is this a recent shot of him, post Steven King... looks like his been hitting the bottle. It works

I think this story shows exactly what is required, & should have occurred, in the face of this intimidation, and total lack of respect for Maxy... and for our Jumper. https://www.afl.com.au/news/2019-05-24/blues-lack-of-response-to-mummy-hit-addressed-in-playersonly-meeting

it's become a boyz club.

Atmo... final teams at 5.00 PM tomorrow.

Hmmmn we might need him elsewhere, stopping them around the middle. ? and helping with our transition. I think minding tGreen is almost... a tagging role. So possibly Locky. But does he have the concentration.?

We'll need a smart player, to play on Toby Green. Salem or possibly Locky ?

You won't be watchin' him... from the 'grassy-knoll', will you ?

They're way better on the outside than us. It'll be interesting, to see how we matchup to them... as they are starting to mature.

Forecast Westerly wind, 'OD' & bm'r, so Pt Gellibrand at least won't so cold as it otherwise might have. https://www.weather.com.au/vic/melbourne

hmmn same with jSmith. be very cautious with him. We don't want anymore groin strains turning into OP... I had tennis elbow in both elbows a while back... recovered after the physio nearly wrecked his own arms and shoulders, rubbing out the sinews to get it to improve... quite painful really. Lucky i have a very high tolerance to pain. But that poor physio dreaded when I was coming in... now its been 12 - maybe 16 years... and I still get soreness twinges in the elbow, now and then. Tendonitis is a bugga, once its in there.

em', thats what I was thinking to, 'DD'. ... by the way, his son looks like Acker as well. ?

I don't think, Stormy Dee was inferring ready to play, after just 3 months.?

JKH... Maybe a better version of ANB ? One who can kick ?

Who ? Shania ?

Yep I know 'OD'...... the things I was so proud of in this Nation, are being trashed and cheapened, on a daily basis. It is very disheartening. to witness it.

I think we will need both... eventually, 'OD'. being optimistic. But I see Gosch's paddock as our 1st and main need, right now... just one oval, but with building for Offices, Gym, and Social facilities... as we grow the club, I see another a complex similar to what the Hawks are doing now. But we maintain the inner heartland oval and building, with Social facilities as our meeting place. A Selection-Evening training, could be held at Gosch's for the selection announcements.

That's It... 'nsoup', you've nailed it... there is a 'bug' getting about this lot so far in 2019... they're all a bit dizzy. That's why they haven't been able to kick. ... must be the dreaded 'bharrNdore' deesease. Quick get 'em all tested, before its too late. IT sounds like Goody's catchinette.

LoL... so just the residual cynicism, left over, 'OD'... ?

The biggest winner from all this, in the shorter term, will be the Casey Demons... apart from the Players themselves, of course.

... and he can bend it like Botham.

Brilliant... that's mr frost in the middle then.?
