monoccular

Give the young kid some space. When not required to do so much ruck work , like last year, he made some great leads, clunked some strong mark and kicked some super goals He is going through a rough spot and needs support not mockery

Didn’t Dixon run around the mark?

In what world is that not a 50 to max. Sozi ran straight into him after the mark.

Understatement Need to use it a lot better too

Karate chops can cause immense damage. No fist required. Gut punches/ belly taps have no place in the game. They are NOT footy actions and never should be

But, like last September, terrible precedents are Collingwood's specialty. Gut punches especially to the unaware, are cowardly and should not be part of the game. Mentioned before Clarrie gets them regularly. I remember Sniper Harvey giving one to Bernie Vince who I don't think played much more of the game. Sniper H wasn't cited either as far as I remember. Fines will not deter highly overpaid AFL "stars". I don't think #4💩 (can't use his name) will get cited either, for his dump tackle, but would one of ours - to set an example?

I think all here know the feeling I still love the game but absolutely hate the AFL Crucified on Easter Eve.

Blowtorch on Fagan??? TV just focussed on him - deer in the headlights

Exactly - Collingwood got a goal from a similar free paid the other way.

Mihocek is pretty handy - one of very few Magpies whom I don't detest. 6 minutes left, Zorko, to send Maynard into 2025

First kicking in danger for the season, I think, to Collingwood in their forward line of course.

How was that HTB (resulting in another Collingwood goal) - he had half a nanosecond before tackled. Any doubt that the AFL have rigged this one dispelled now, surely.

I guess former Collingwood MRO will engage the Christian spirit of Easter and ignore, or downplay, Pendlebery’s cowardly off play gut punch to Neale. Sure they aren’t a hit on the head but they are an absolute blight on the game and regularly directed against ball players. Clarry gets them every week.

Two blatant frees against 🕶️ - holding in the ruck and in the back, not paid., in a five second period in Brisbanes forward 50. HQ really unhappy about the prospects of Collingwood going 0-4

In what world can crypto technology, as show to the public anyway, call Mihocek cleanly marking the ball before crossing the line?

Brisbane rattled

[censored] the Magpie pulled the ball into the Lion and the blindsided maggot paid HTB. Awful decision.

Jack has surely reached club legend status already. Never say die, incredibly hard but fair. His own hard work has improved his “genetically poor” kicking to now be very good (as did Todd). His team mates must just love having him on the field with them - relentless and leads by example. Thanks Jack for all you have already done for our club and our fans.

I don’t imagine that there is much long grass at WoopWoop West via Ceduna where I believe he hails from. Maybe a bit of stunted brown grass and spinafex.

Was there to ba another training session Wednesday or was it Thursday morning prior to traveling to Adelaide? Has the squad gone yet and if so who is in it?

I must say I haven’t seen much to rave about in his few games, and I doubt he would be a flight risk were the re signing left until he has had more opportunities to show his wares, but clearly those who see him all the time can envisage far more than me. So, I am glad to leave it to the experts and good luck Bill. We should all get behind him.

He wasn’t anywhere near Sicily off the play, was he?

Absolutely NO; population too small and Darwin certainly unsuited to winter football - humid, wet, hot. Alice has a far better winter footy climate notwithstanding the disaster of 2023 (coldest day on record and very unseasonable rain in the area) but the population is way too small. 18 teams dilute the talent pool already, 19 then 20 will just make it worse. 16 would be better. Solution - merge the three teams that have been going to Tasmania (North, Hawks, Saints) as the Tassie Devils. Otherwise just relocate the Kangaroos and keep it at 18. Don't the AFL see the chaos and inequities of an odd number of teams as displayed in the VFL?? Sorry forgot that the AFL have never had the slightest interest in inequity.
