This - they will jump into Max and tackle him to the ground hard. We need to respond, if there's violence, with totally disproportionate physical power. No more Troy Simmonds. If that sort of stuff happens, one of them doesn't get up.

His kick to TMac and his handball to Jones against the Cats were pure class - the handball in particular. He read the play, intercepted the ball b/n 2 Cats and fired out to Jones - amazing skill and power. Keeps playing his role. Leaving soon... Feeling ill

Yep - just bought one for me and one for the son and heir

What if they isolate Hawkins. Really isolate (pagans paddock style) I know the midfield battle is crucial but I'm more worried about the raw 1 on 1in their forward line

MFCSS prevents me for saying or thinking anything rational about this game. I will just go and suffer.

Richmond and Hawthorn have done very well in finals without dominating contested possession. Not sure what this means, but I'd be interested to learn. Go Dees

Nothing like talent, is there!

Now that viney is out with a foot/toe/fmd,I wonder if this is possible?

OK here

Is that a hope or a fact - ?

Turns out it's taken from a pinterest post. Full post: " Pro-Athlete Diabetics cannot withstand head impacts as well as those who are non-diabetic because cells in diabetics cannot use glucose well and all tend to be deficient in magnesium. This makes them more sensitive to the effects of excitatory neurotransmitters like glutamate, which are released in massive amounts following a concussion. Supplemental Magnesium and a High DHA, higher-fat diet are huge to boost brain energy levels to protect against head injuries " So, until further evidence, it's bullsh$t

I'd love a reference to the peer reviewed study/studies that "showed" this...

Back to the thread... this bloke looks like a serious socks-down footballer. It's such a relief not see stick figures out there wearing the red-and-blue. Who knows how he'll go, but he's a chance

The next minute he gets put in defense or something Not a star, but got caught in a period of "average player management", I reckon

Just watching the Filth vs Carltank - and I don't want to ever hear that Watts could be / is like Pendlebury... they share some motor skills - FULL STOP...

Ah yes - I was playing cricket at St Kevin's that day - slow day in the outfield with Mick Taylor soaring above us!
