  1. Surely not. A highly professional body like the AFL would never introduce a half arsed idea. ???
  2. Do you mean that they will choke in the dying moments??
  3. OMG then he will miss out on the joys of AFLXCREMENT! (Tommy's toe is also probably a bit sore)
  4. I would imagine this piece of brilliance originated from that genius pairing of Gil and Shocking. Surely nobody else could be so inane.
  5. OMG I missed it all Devastated. Do the highlights appear on YouTube? ??? PS was this carp actually on live TV?
  6. In fairness, Soidee, (I am a decade or so older than you), back when we were young and having fun, to be filmed would have involved some dude going out and getting a movie camera, a roll of film, and waving this huge device in your face, then sending the film off to be processed and played on some monstrous projector and screen in a darkened room. And sharing?? None of this spur of the moment or even surreptitious videoing.
  7. Gatorade game changer!!! Whose brilliant idea was that FCS?? As referred to earlier, the turd remains totally unpolished. Will anyone actually watch this rubbish? Gil has totally lost the plot.
  8. Ernest Eloquent as per usual - do you mean a bit of a farewell to arms, when the bell tolls for thee?
  9. I did try to look at those clips - my god they are just too awful to persist. Seriously what is the world coming to? Is she actually making lots of money from these narcissistic displays of inane vanity? Does someone pay her for this? Life was so much simpler in my youth - with the added bonus of regular MFC Premierships!
  10. Could be a problem. The presence of a brain is a prerequisite for a lobotomy, according to an old neurosurgeon mate.
  11. Could help solve our energy crisis. Certainly would produce more that solar and wind have done these past weeks.
  12. So instead of guys getting concussion from bricks in a back pack, we my have someone drown instead? ??
  13. So do. the Blues get screwed and have a full season one man short as we did when that Great Narcissist HO'B pulled the plug in the off season? Or are there now rules governing this?
  14. A rare opportunity to add to Ernest's always great writings but perhaps opportunity would be a more appropriate word in this case. It is an amazing progression that our club has made over so very few years: from abysmal player development to best practice. Well done to all involved.
  15. I suspect that Tyson will struggle even more to crack into our lineup this year ? As regards Jeffy - entirely up to him to put the pressure on. Like every player he will need to maintain intensity. Plenty of players to replace anyone who falters.
  16. Bernie was good (our last premiership FB) though Peck seemed always to have the wood on him.
  17. As long as none of OUR players are harmed.
  18. So, a water skier, not a downhill skier or a snow skier. Maybe that is why the (bad old time) Dees didn't pick him?
  19. Real glitter or mock glitter?
  20. Could the now more open wing positions bring someone with his dash and acceleration into their own?
  21. The original concept was already pretty awful: this "revamp" by Gill and Shocking reminds me of the adage : "You can't polish a turd"!
  22. FCS we need to beat whoever is on the field against us: for far too long we (here) have got excited if player x or y is missing: "now we will win easily" etc etc Let the others worry about us for a change.
  23. One concern to me is that some players will milk the 50 meter penalty bizarre new rule to try to get double or even triple 50s. It is far too open to gaming, and to maggotorial interpretations, andofferes far too great a penalty for what are often minor technical breaches The 50 (as opposed to 10 or 15) is already too harsh for many minor infractions The 666 set up will put huge emphasis on wingmen having sharp sprinting ability. Could be a savior for the somewhat out of favor Hunt.
  24. I am sure it is a sign, though of what I am uncertain - even clueless. Perhaps some of the deep thinkers here like Hemingway will find the truth.
  25. Thanks Watson Those stats maybe say a bit about an individual player’s involvement and commitment in pressure games. Weed’s chasing, tackling and pressure has been streets ahead of Jesse, as well as his set shot goal kicking routines, and outcomes.
