I think Daicos has probably already done enough to win the Brownlow even without playing the remainder of the games.

I don’t think that it was about winning the local derby, otherwise they probably would have cleared Jones as well… obviously he was unable to continue and so the ‘migraine’ call. I believe it was all about their upcoming match against Geelong next weekend… they did not want to go into that game minus two important players. I would have loved to see the AFL force them to sideline those players for two games, not just the one… and a full investigation to determine whether the club doctor was under any pressure to make that call.

Yes… from memory it was in the 3rd quarter around the 10 minute mark, but my memory’s not the best and it was probably nowhere near that time.

Yet everyone turned a blind eye to Max’s blunders that contributed to Richmond’s first three goals… selective blindness I suspect 😉

Yet reading the game day thread, you’d be forgiven for thinking that ANB was on the Tigers’ payroll. The usual suspects with their blinkers on full lock… couldn’t see all of his acts that actually contributed to our forays towards the goals. He was excellent!

No, they clarified later in the coverage that the ball has to touch the point post… it’s similar to the out of bounds rule in that your body can be over the line as long as you are still controlling the ball in the field of play.

I don’t know if you noticed, but at one point he appeared to be talking tactics with Dusty; and Dusty seemed more than happy to share. A nice moment.

Ok then, here’s some cheese with added cheese and extra cheese on top…

Not cheesy, but…

Not particularly funny

I know it’s supposed to be insulting, but that had me actually laughing for it sheer brilliance! A Tigers supporter with a good grasp of the English language (vocab, not structure) and sense of humour… and, I’d suggest, someone I might get along with quite well.

Are you saying that May, Lever and Tomlinson are undersized????

You’re on the selection committee or one of the coaching staff? 😉

The Brisbane Lions have had it worse than us if you take into account that the total number of games at the cattery as Fitzroy, Bears and Brisbane Lions is 28.

I’m pretty sure he was on last Saturday night’s game coverage.

Well, it certainly doesn’t read that way when you’re suggesting that a media college is established for Melb ex players and staff to redress the balance and protect the club. To me it reads that you’re wanting to see some sort of positive discrimination put in place, which, I highly doubt would ever work where sporting commentary is concerned… even my favourite commentator, Hudson, has a very obvious bias towards Geelong; but I accept that they will all have their favourites.

So, you want a media that is biased towards us? Sorry, but I think you’ll find that regardless of which club you follow, you’d be able to find bias against that club, if you looked hard enough; it’s called <club>SS, for example, MFCSS.

The censored word actually related to a chihuahuas output, if you know what I mean.

I suppose when you have the IQ of a small chihuahua [censored], you’ve got to be good at something… well done Tex!

Maybe they’ll both be tanking so hard that that game will be a nil all draw.

Why? For having an opinion? He got it very wrong, but he’s entitled to his opinion.

Like me, you grew up in an era where social media etc didn’t exist and so bullying etc was pretty much limited to the schoolyard, workplace etc. Now, people often have to deal with it all of the time and short of isolating themselves completely, they don’t have any easy way of escaping it. Nothing about being too precious at all.

How about a Spanish Inquisition? Bring out the ‘comfy chair’!!

Do you mean the GWS guy that was playing for the Suns?

I sincerely hope you’re right, but due to the fact that his eyes were not on the ball and the outcome has not been ideal, the MRP are sure to give him a week (I doubt it would be more than that). It doesn’t help when the commentary team are suggesting he’ll do time, never mind that fact that consistency in it’s findings and penalties has never been a strong point of the MRP.
