Prediction is 10 to 15 kmh winds by game time. Your hard work will be OK.

Naah. It's like country footy. They called for volunteers to play Collingwood and an insufficient number have put their hand up at this point.

Channel 7 already has enough photographers. Your next job is Team Mum. The club should create a paid position. And I so advise.

I'm not sure he's assisted by the current game plan which doesn't seem to contemplate having an actual forward line. Contest and defense only accounts for 2/3rds of the ground.

BMac early father / daughter pick for AFLW. In and under. Knows how to get it.

PJ got Roos from a similar situation.

I was at Waverley sitting next to Brent Croswell (injured) who went down to hear Barassi's 3/4 time spray. On return, he reported the great man's inspirational speech was "don't get done by 100 points".

Fritsch should be dropped - into the goal square where he belongs. He's never been a chase and tackle player so playing him high HF is expecting a miracle conversion. Playing out of the square he will kick goals.

I think you can get Kayo Standard (1 screen) FOR $25

Thought I might join the chat. McAdam is highly skilled, with evasive tricks and a good footy IQ. Marks as if he were taller, like Fritta. He's done the work and I look forward to his first game, where he kicks 3 and dishes off a couple. Have prescribed vitamins to avoid further injury / illness and a small dose off apotropaic magic to ward of negative DL comments. He'll be fine.

A bloke called John Nicholls went OK at 189. Strength, positioning and mongrel, (lots of), made up for lack of height.

Max joked once that Russian wouldn't let him win a tap for the first 6 years.

Too short for a back-up ruck? Nah. John Nicholls was 189cm but won out through strength, jostling, positioning and the occasional mongrel act. Different era? Sure, but those tactics still work to negate a superior ruck.

No. I thought you made a balanced comment, which is why I quoted it. The "this one" was my off topic post. Apologies for any unintended angst.
