monoccular

I just love his calmness, and mature reading not just of the immedaite play but the whole situation of the game. Amazing stuff from a first year player in the last few games in particular.

Can't turn the clock back, but it would be interesting if he [Kent] could have played a full season under our current injury management / fitness regimen. Chronic / recurring injury seemed to hit him whenever he started to look good. Now that would be something very novel at MFC. Worth a try, surely.

Presumably that includes game plan. Sounds like the hotel quarantine enquiry.

Lions seriously at risk of throwing this away with 4 behinds in a row.

One can only very seriously hope that he doesn’t sink to those depths of despair.

Great Scott finals record. Hawkins (0.5) had he kicked straight instead of sulking could have made the difference.

A protected bloody cheat.

OMG can’t believe the Felocentric umpiring. Geelong gets all the soft ones, and Port can’t get a half chance.

Selwood remains a protected species. Umpiring surprisingly hugely favouring the visiting team.

Cause or effect ? Either way really very sad for Harley and his family.

Maybe a mohel?

How about comparative best speed of ball movement coast to coast? Surely that is really what matters most. Or movement from centre bounce to open space on half forward line?

Hasn't he retired due to concussions? Could we recruit him so that he and KK could sit on the sidelines and talk about what could have been? I presume that this post was misdated and came on April 1.

Cannot believe that any player can regress so far so fast. Needs a very detailed physical (injury and general fitness) AND psychological assessment very soon before trade period. If injury is his issue, then prognosis needs to be assessed. If good AND psychology ok then hang in and get him fit. If he could regain 2018 would be a huge gain in the current team structure.

Lackadaisical

Even the most successful teams have their share of "bit players" as you put it.

I don’t really know, but is there any way to inculcate a killer instinct in a group? Does it come naturally to some? is it on field leadership? Is it off field leadership? Is it hardship? Any shrinks or psychiatrists here??

Like most things AFL - made up as they go along.

Surely you are not suggesting that some umpires are human ????

Yet haven't we beaten three sides in the lower half of the finals - StK Colonwood Footscray? Pity Melksham didn't have a similar reaction.

Exactly - no big deal but after the carry on in the Richmond rooms then anyone with half a brain wouldn't do it - therein lies the answer.

Lackadaisical is the term I believe He misread your post, spirit. Kicked 3.4. 7 would have been great Tell that to Cale

Yeah. Can’t blame Casey or Gosh for this year.

Track. WTF? This team does not deserve to be in finals.

This is starting to look very Melbournian. (Just switched it on)???
