  1. I too was wondering that - there has been "some gastro" around the club - many looked flat ... or is it just a long season with more niggling injuries and 5 weeks less recovery from 2021 that is catching up. Of course - looking forward to hearing binman's thoughts - it could be superbly timed loading?
  2. I have been an advocate for giving JVR a run since mid season, then went off a bit close to finals, but am warming to the idea again. Surely couldn’t underperform Milkshake and would provide a decent contest every time.
  3. I stopped watching at half time but may turn it on again. Bulldogs were getting away with throwing even more than Geelong did this afternoon. Sickening blight on the game.
  4. The classic layman’s shinbone is the tibia, which carries the weight. The fibula (most of it) is for muscle attachment. Only the lower (ankle) end has much structural impact. So depends where it is. But in the context of this discussion, Smith was there and JVR wasn’t. As above, hairline fractures of the shin (=tibia) are what is referred to as “shin splints” I believe - Webber please comment. But as I understand these are cumulative stress fractures and not an acute impact injury. But, again, not really relevant to this discussion as CP5’s injury isn’t the tibia.
  5. Undoubtedly - but doesn’t change the fact that he has been well below par.
  6. Mmmm. Looks like the Dogs May have had some “learnings” from their last final at Optus.
  7. Hopefully will decide to sit and wait for a couple of years. â€ïžđŸ’™â€ïžđŸ’™
  8. How can Elliott, and Mihocek stuff those up ?
  9. Though Cats May have spent their tickets in Q2
  10. Bad kicking bad footy Collingwood
  11. Pies already looking far too good. Hate to say it but am going for the Pies. Preferably without any help from 😎Cox, Ginavan, Howe.
  12. Or make a statement when it really matters? But at least they do have a couple of contested marking options unlike us.
  13. But at least he marked over Howe.
  14. “
Brown won’t get dropped, even though he was embarrassing last night. He needs to play within the 50 metre arc and stop this ridiculous running up the ground
”. I would suspect that Brown would far prefer playing from the goal square and leading up. But also I suspect that his “ridiculous running up the ground” is obeying instructions and he would risk being dropped if he didn’t. AFL making it up on the fly 
 maybe they would send us to Kitty Litter Park? Actually possibly could if it were 🐈‍⬛ v 🩁 đŸ€”
  15. Maybe the "loading" is set to fire us up from next weekend to dominate three in a row ?? binman??
  16. When does the changes v BNE thread ooen6?
  17. Rule 1 Just cannot give away 3 goals from 50s and expect to win a game.
