  1. Oliver head knocked off .... no free????
  2. Actually 🔁 15, I presume, unless you want a repeat of the drivel.
  3. In fairness, Lyon has gone so a forward's life could be more palatable now than before.
  4. TMc on wing? In lieu of Brayshaw or Langdon? 🙄 I would be surprised.
  5. I have 7HD through the Optus NBN set top box (can’t remember it’s name and can’t be bothered getting up to check)* so can pause TV to synch with 3AW or SEN. Usually I prefer to run Kayo through the smart TV mainly to skip the ad breaks after every goal, but isn’t the GF only on 7, which means bloody ad breaks all the time (hopefully 30 times, for each of our goals!). *fetch
  6. Hard to see the powers-that-be disrupting a very solid defensive unit by “experimenting” with Sam as a defender, especially if Tomlinson is fit and ready at the start of preseason. I feel that Sam needs to continue to work on his marking confidence, which was good prior to 2019. Something went wrong: was it just mental, just physical or a combination? I trust our club to help him through this. Petty has in my mind secured his place this year,to the surprise of many, in our defensive unit, and is heir apparent to Steve May as FB. Smith, if he ever regains and retains physical fitness, could be a Jack of all trades.
  7. Can’t we have both ?😌
  8. So, if it occurred after curfew we would all have to stay inside and die - earthquake is not one of the exemptions to go outside.
  9. It was seismic forces protesting against being locked down far longer than safety tolerances. WorkSafe Victoria will undertake an investigation with findings released after the next election.
  10. Don’t agree - he is a hard nut but not a thug along the lines of Hardwick and his mate v Green (2000 GF) or Matthews. He sure will fly the flag though.
  11. Given the state of our club at the time, Wines may have flopped and Toumpas may have won a Downlow elsewhere ?? 🙄🙄
  12. Have been watching updates from time to time - I have watched the count in the past and found it as boring as watching grass grow, or like American Football more stop than start. Clarrie, Trac and Max can go for a three way tie for the Norm Smith.
  13. It is just yet another AFL knee jerk rule change - like the deliberate rushed behind (one GF circa 2007), the pre finals bye (one failed 'resting players' in round 23 circa 2015) , statue on mark for ? whatever reason. Some administrators just think they have to make changes for the sake of it.
  14. Should have gone down the highway to KP.
  15. Gil / Hocking ego > brain?
  16. Agree entirely with paragraph 2. His was the best debuting have ever witnessed, and he has rarely if ever had a bad game. Yes, he has become even better this season, off a high base. Well done, Clarrie …. looking forward to a Norm Smith medal to purge the Norm Smith curse.
  17. …. as playing coach. They need more pace.
  18. Thought you said doggy prawns. Very happy for them to do so.
  19. MadAsHell - your plan may be a bit better that the train wreck 2020 (unforeseeable) and 2021 (highly foreseeable) fiascos, but still does not take into account the state border issues that despite predicted high vaccination rates and the apparent abandonment of the obviously unattainable donut figures, could well come into play yet again in 2022, given the propensity of State Premiers to play oneupmanship with each other. Add in the fact that the majority of VFL players still have to hold down “real jobs”, scheduling multiple interstate trips just makes no sense. So, VFL for Victoria, SANFL (+/-NT if they like) and Q and N sort it out for themselves. May sound harsh but could anything be worse for everyone that the farce of 2021?
