Undeeterred

Out of interest, are you saying that there's nothing on a footy field that would be chargeable? I'm not having a go, am genuinely interested. Where would you say the line is?

No, you're probably right. I lumped you in with McQ in a hurry. Not saying he does either, but saying 'I'm not condoning it but these things happen in footy' [paraphrasing] sort of does condone it by implying some level of striking is 'understandable'

These comments are predicated on the assumption it's ok to smash people anywhere. Why the need for a massive wind up punch to the guts? Or the arm? Or the c0ck? It's just irrelevant.

I just watched that close up footage again in slow mo. He's proper f**ked.

Broken jaw, regardless.

Australia isn't America. Victims don't get to choose whether to 'press charges'. Police do.

I know GC were bad today, but gee whiz if we get rolling in the next couple of weeks we could do serious damage in September.

That Gaff hit was appalling. Completely unnecessary - Brayshaw wasn't even niggling him. Disgusting behaviour.

Deceptively hard at it too

Love that you've taken the 'ultra pessimist' tag to heart.

I had no idea that's who his father was until I saw him on the TV last night!

Well, given he's played about 4 games in 18 months, why so positive? He wouldn't be retiring from a hot spot. He'd be retiring because his PF is rooted, and they haven't been able to fix it without overloading other parts of his foot. This isn't just a toe issue. I'd be amazed if he was ever 100% again.

Yeah, let's change all the rules so games are watchable. D1ckheads.

True, but I'd argue we have a disproportionate number of top 10 players out (Viney, Lever, Hibberd, Melksham at a pinch).

Me too. Right outcome, but shows how vulnerable each team is

Sort of....

If Geelong win this I'll bloody spew.

Oliver. 25 contested possessions and 14 clearances. 14.

Oh FFS.

Literally trying not to wet myself

That was a bloody circus

Depends if we fumble it like we have a couple of times and they get the skates on

ANB has had a few important involvements in this quarter

Time this club stood up and said we've f u c k e n had enough!

Stop.
