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.

His eyes were not on the ball… he was looking at his opponent, with the ball coming from behind him… unfortunately, he failed to correctly anticipate where the ball would be, and connected with the player’s head. It should have been free kick worthy, but as the player was badly hurt and couldn’t continue, he’ll have to do time.

I would not be surprised in the least if Van Rooyen gets a one week holiday courtesy of the MRP, in which case BBB comes in and either Petty moves back (Turner out) and maybe Joel Smith comes into the forward line (is Tom McDonald injured? - I didn’t see him in the stats for the VFL game). Alternatively, Petty stays forward, Turner out and Hibberd back in. No idea how Spargo gets back in.

Yes, I saw him a few times with Carson County Boogie Band back in 1972 (Melb Uni, Sunbury, Much More Ballroom etc). Such a great performer and song writer.

Weightman has zero, count ‘em, nil, nada, no, possessions in his 46:36mins time on the ground!! But he has had one turnover 🤣
