The only explanation for Fritsch’s kicking was that his foot was numb with painkillers and he couldn’t feel it

Simple rule. Don’t leave your feet and lose control. Failure to take reasonable care. Nobody is missing anything.

Landed on top of him front on and shared the impact, rather than distributing the impact entirely on to Brayshaw’s face. He basically did the SUV smashing a Suzuki thing rather than two Mazdas hitting each other and everyone being ok It’s laughable to argue he had no other options or that what he did was reasonable. It’s also entirely predictable that he will be free to play because the AFL is borderline corrupt on these issues. A Melbourne player would get 4-5 weeks for that.

The look on Goody’s face when Smith and Langdon took advantage like it was a Benny Hill skit rather than let Fritta have a set shot was priceless. He’d have missed it I guess and maybe put it out on the full, so in some senses maybe we ended up a point better off than if they didn’t.

The simple principle in the Maynard incident is he left is feet and once you do that, it’s your risk. He could have just landed chest to chest or rolled the other way but he chose to brace and, frankly, stuff him. Deserves a month

Deep breath mate no need to be hysterical

Don’t do it, Hibbo, don’t!

Bit rough given the utter garbage served up by our leaders for most of 100 minutes of football. How about we start there instead of pinging the 6 gamer?

Oh that’s very good

I mean he’s won a B&F and a premiership and played 150 games it’s not like he spends his time as the unused medical sub every week!

How is Lachie Hunter a no name to you? Wowser!!

Ah! Good pick up that makes much more sense.

Here

His manager was quoted in the press in the last week or two as saying Freo knew he was going to request a trade from about a week after last year’s grand final. The whole thing is ludicrous - he could easily have told us earlier.

That first statement is just flat out incorrect.

You mean apart from Lever, May, Langdon, Hibberd, Melksham, Brown and Dunstan? That’s 6 out of our last match 22 and one of the next in line who have to come to us from other clubs. And 4 players (Oliver, Trac, Viney and Brayshaw) have signed ultra long deals in the face of serious bids from elsewhere in the last three years. Bit of a stretch to say nobody wants to play for us.

Of course The reporting doesn’t sound like that’s what they are up for doing, although of course that’s possibly just an early negotiating position. But if they start with 20 and something else, we’d be mad to cop that.

If we managed to stooge two top 10 picks then gave up one for Grundy I’d just about cry.

Well WCE can F off if they’re not coughing up pick 2!

We’ve had since May to think of something, to be fair

Not even shocked.

You’d think Tomlinson Bedford and Chandler are all a chance of walking and that’s just for starters

Disregarding that time when he was best on ground in one of course

All of this. 100%
