monoccular

presumably nobody by the name of Kennedy playing?

Sounds like some of the multitude of ignoramuses in the media claiming that some “genius” at Collingwood (was it FIGJAM?) was brilliant in playing Howe as a defender when we had already done that.

Maybe, if he is being misused, despite his contract status, he could get itchy feet and want to join his brother at a successful well run club? 🤔🙄😁

Not again?? 🤦‍♂️ It was going well until you said "..As I said I'm a TMac fan but he did little on Saturday night beyond freeing up Brown...." - which was surely a KPI and he did that well and, again, that was a big contribution to our gameplay. Can't agree with the"..did little.." bit. Why does one need either when one has MFCSS?

Agree 100% re Bowey, but many here wrote Harry off forever after a “less than stellar” debut which I think was a couple of years before his great comeback games when Tommo went down.

Ours was a pretty even TEAM effort which reflects the spread.

But is every silver lining surrounded by cloud? (Just a philosophical question).

You omitted ... "and then hang or / (preferably) run away with it".

McVee didn't seem in any way daunted by being asked to lock down Martin in the preseason game - I realise he is a different player type to Cameron but IMO Judd should have first crack at him.

Maybe there sin't one - it takes a functioning brain to make a conspiracy.

They are extremely selective in their handwringing, but consistent in their hypocrisy.

What a great debut by the young man #41. Fits is so well already into the "defensive unit", reads the play well, is very calm and his disposal was generally very good and sharp. I loved the baulk around Borat on the members wing. Well done. (Bowey and Rivers also did well, so when Salem does his week or two at Casey to get back into things I wouldn't like to be a selector.)

IF Frittata is 100% fit he should come in for Kozzie IF Viney has recovered fully in for Laurie IF May 99% fit give him another week … even if 100% keep him back for Buddy IF Salem ready he will need a week, or two, at Casey

Just finished the replay and have to recognize just what a good job Tomlinson did in May’s absence. There will certainly be no need to rush him back prematurely.

The relativity of the two suspensions is what is infuriating. One caused a player to go off, potentially concussed, the other caused no injury. The former gets one week; the latter two. And they wonder why some suggest that there is corruption in the AFL judicial system.

So no injury is worse than concussion! No injury is high impact: concussion is medium impact Unbelievable Bastards Buddy > Kozzie.

I will give my vote to dee-tox

Of course Frankenstein won’t get more than one week maximum even though he KOd his opponent. Kozzie will get multiple just because it is a bad look.

Not in the least controversial I would say - McVee stood well ahead of Baker and Laurie. He will hold his spot but Laurie is likely to go down to Casey especially if Fritter is ready to go.

I haven't seen any replays of the Kozzie "incident" - sure it was late and maybe reckless but as far as could see at the game no head contact and no adverse outcome to the collidee. So what does that mean in MRO points or whatever raffle they are doing this year? This week? This game? He elected to bump but did no harm? (But nor did Moloney.) Are we going to be the victims of absence of precedent once again?

No need to rush May back until 100%

Any news on which of our emergencies was not playing?

Who actually cares what those parasitic blights say about us?

I thought that 'flu shots usually come early for aged care residents.
