monoccular

Well said ...... though the umpire advisor or spokesman or whatever will find an excuse each and every miss

Nah. They won’t microwave, just go to a drug dealer and go on a bender. Haven’t played us yet ...... remember last year over there. If we keep winning I will always go for the lower team beating the higher one.

I am also in the Tyson for Viney, but resting Vince could be an option.

Weidemann - further steady progress

I have only seen bits and pieces but ANB and Harmes are going hard at it and doing their bit. Tyson does some good stuff and some awful stuff

And they miss so many straight in front for us like May incorrectly disposal right in front

Unfortunately the Blues v Drugs game cannot now be a nil all draw ?

?litigant?

I would prefer the guy who does exactly what is asked of him, and a bit extra ... and that seems to be what ANB and Harmes are doing, at the moment. Presumably Hunt and Jeffy are not. We here don’t actually know what role the coach and the match committee ask of each player. I suspect that given the distances quoted as ANB’s running, that he has been asked to run a lot .... maybe run to offer an option, decoy style at times, and / or the pressure an opponent into an error, even if a stat such as a tackle is not recorded. IMVHO Hunt and Jeff probably have higher overall ceilings, but aren’t doing their roles as requested.

Running fast hasn’t saved Hunt, but running far seems to have helped ANB. And he is I believe high in the “pressure acts” numbers. ANB must be doing what is asked of him but maybe Hunt hasn’t. Still have some concerns re Salem’s thumb effecting his ability to lay crunching tackles. If at the last minute he wasn’t right I wonder which of the emergencies will take the trip?

Maybe it is a lot related to the drug saga. Two of those should be far too embarrassed to attend, and others maybe just pi553d off (or have other unrelated reasons).

Ernst - do we need to wait that long? Pretty close already in season 3.

Thankfully Wojinski won’t be playing. chook. The alternative being what?

No they did not steal anything from us : we managed to forfeit it all on our own and I hope we never ever forget!

That would be Tom ..... nothing in the song about Young McDonald.

Bugger bronze: accept nothing less than gold (or platinum)!

Me too.

Ruck rover was invented by TGNWS specifically for and became synonymous with Ron Barassi, and has not been close to being emulated since he retired. Some may say Michael Tuck or maybe Adam Goodes approached his eminence in that role.

As well as finding his mojo, he needs to find the ball and then find his teammates (or the goals) with said ball {and, I agree his best is best 22}

Careful Super - he may take you on for not using his “proper” name.

Just picked up on this. Does anyone have any idea of the nature of our captain’s misconduct. Doesn't Christian have to specify anything more than “misconduct”? And doesn’t a chop to the throat qualify as misconduct. Fair dinkum, this Guy is far worse than the old MRP ever was. A law unto himself.

Sounded far more sincere that HWSNBM all those years back.

He will be sorely missed .... where is the similarity you refer to? Has he a successor under his wing?

Do they have a duty of care to provide, or a duty of care to make every reasonable effort to provide?..... not sure that absolute freedom from racism is possible if the public at large and allowed into the grounds.

I will have to remember to steer well clear of Merrimack College (wherever that is) .... the Professor sounds like someone just looking for trouble where it ain’t. It is folk like her who give the whole equality / anti discrimination movement a bad name in some circles. And totally different, in another world, from being called a black c.....
