Exactly! If it's a "footy action", consequences be damned! God forbid one should genuinely brace for impact.

Yep it seems that I missed that, but might have been a good idea to send an email out with an updated schedule to all those who were originally emailed too. As clearly, we missed that info and completely missed the training session. If you say training is 11am-1:30pm, it is fair to say people might interpret that literally.

Mate and I got there at 11am, only to hear over the loud speaker that they wouldn't be starting training until 11:45am. So we snuck off to the pub, came back at 12:15pm to find all the players wrapping it up and leaving. Email didn't say anything about it being a 30 min training sesh. Totally our bad for coming back late, but it was pretty disappointing that it was so short, especially when the invite said "11am-1:30pm" with no specific schedule.

Agree, but let's spin it the other way. He's taking the time he needs (and has been granted) to enjoy his off season, get away from the city and reset. I'd rather him be happy, healthy and start on time instead of rushing back just to please people.

Let's try to be positive here. We had a clear need for more speed and outside talent. This kid directly addresses that and I'm sure we wouldn't have taken him at 7 if we were sure he'd be there at 13. JT has given us no reason to distrust his ability to find talent (especially bolter talent).

Surely the sensible ruling is to say "if you choose to run, jump and or slide into player from front on, even if it is in the instance of smothering, and you severely concuss them, then you are liable for suspension". I don't care if it was a footy act. Bumping was a footy act, and it's dangerous if done incorrectly. No different here. I'm sure he didn't mean for what happened, but I'm sure he tried to hit him.

Yeah spot on, I thought the same thing. So there's no hope! I'm absolutely gutted for him. If by some miracle we win the flag, it'll be his too. He was such a massive part of our run into finals.

Let's say by some miracle that it's not an ACL...I'm wondering what injuries are mistaken for ACLs, and if any of them have him in frame to return in time? I know it's wishful thinking but just trying to get an idea if he has any chance of being okay.

Thanks for that Gorgoroth! I agree the game pass is great, I tested out the free trial and it’s defintely a good investment. I’m more weighing up if it’s worth it this late in the season. Next year for sure! ??????

Hi everyone! I had no idea that there was an NFL thread on demonland! How convenient. After getting back from a US trip with my American partner, I’m now a newly converted-Rams fan. As I’m not really into cricket, I couldn’t be happier that I’ve found a sport that I can watch while Afl is out of season!! I wanted to reach out to any other Australia-based nfl watchers...about whether anyone knows of any good places/sites to stream game replays? I considered the NFL game pass but it seems too pricey to buy one this late in the season. Any help would be much appreciated! Go Rams ?

Thanks GLG, currently on holiday in the US so very happy to go to bed if there’s nothing more to see!

Does anyone think we’re going to do anything else this year?

Agreed. Just needs to slowly build his endurance through game time.

Clayton Oliver looks dead on his feet.

Massive relief about Brayshaw. Just about put my fist through my phone when I saw him go down.
