  1. How about a week for the reportable incident and additional weeks to match the time missed by the victim?
  2. Thanks DD and you got the changes spot on
  3. Just caught the Front Bar and Sams six included a scanlens card picture of Ray Biffen "a mix of shock and serial killer" yeah sounds about right Biff?. obviously caught your avatar
  4. We have a squad of 40 and should use them all as appropriate. What a position to be in for a change. We can provide alternatives a chance to step up and play at maximum level knowing they can rest the next. Specer could give Max a rest if he's injured We have good replacements for suspended players. How good is that
  5. Graeme Cordey who played with him said Deisel had outstanding peripheral vision which enhanced his impact.In his opinion Deisel was the best he played amongstfor ball use.
  6. Thanks red couldn't remember detail
  7. So how long will the player who hit Watts get? and was it Petracca who went off with blood from a cut, was that a spontaneous outburst?
  8. Perhaps an assist to umpires from Specsavers "FREE KICK IF PUSHED HERE" Although we might then need another for the neck"free kick if connection above this point"
  9. Some things I haven't seen mentioned is the number of times we had multiple players flying for the mark, and even sometimes our player attempting to spoil our player flying for the mark. We occasionally kicked to forward/s outnumbered. When Carlton got the ball there was an outomatic loose man and as we scrambled to make up that number we released the next player down the field. Not helped when our forward player fell down in the contest and the opposition got up more quickly. Loved an effort by Jetta in the last when he went to ground an rolled over and tackled as he got up in an almost reflexaction. Second efforts are so important
  10. Is Simpson moving to coach the dees.???????
  11. Wouldn't think it would be an invite but can agree that it would be a deserved flogging
  12. Just saw in what constitutes banter after the game, where commentators become even more indulgent that BT was asked if he was returning to Romsey. is there something even more sinister that we should know about?
  13. Really impressed with the obvious muscle definition of those pictured. Significantly better than previous years. more solid build and greater strength and stability. They really look good.
  14. Maybe the coach didn't play him coz the spots his unless ANB & Harmes were better. Left them on to see if they could get to that standard. s Seems they didn't
  15. Workers compensation claims are almost unlimited. was advised many years ago can be lodged 99 years after death. Asbestos claims are a good example of consequences of poor work practices
  16. Hope that team success does come and fulfill his comments. Hope that Col contributes by setting a high standard that others have to beat to be part of that success. It would be great if he could play those highlights consistently and in greater volume.
  17. Sorry to be so reticent in my response. From my humble position my access to demonland is restricted to late night binges followed by periods of self enforced abstinence. Often the effects of this thread alone are enough to induce bouts of uncontrollable delight similar to drug induced states. I am also finding that the expanding commentary on success now entering Demonland almost compulsory and certainly comprehensive. However this thread is certainly my mandatory reading and I am pleased to see again your alternative truth wisdom on display. Trump may claim some ownership of this method however I think the evidence is historically available here that demonland contributors have invented and mastered this technique. Perhaps yourself, Biffen an other notables should mount a campaign to the good old USA to receive appropriate recognition of you efforts. Look forward to conference detail
  18. The "churn" a combination of zone and man on man where forward mid and back groups constantly rotate. As a player moves to the ball and the contest the closest player covers his man/ position causing the player closest to him to cover him etc in a circular fashion in attack the movement is to space constant movement will unsettle opponents who must make a contest and will have a different opponent at all times
  19. Pleased that you have transitioned so well. The blandness here has been exacerbated by the constant bickering over alternative truths, heat and renewable energy. Suggest you maintain popularity by introducing a women's league. It seems to have worked well as a distraction for AFL. Your entourage appears to comprise all necessary elements for successful wealth generation,just don't be lulled into including accountants and all should be well.
  20. Good points overlooked perhaps due to my bias. Agree that it would be better out of the shadow of any men's game but as a new product can leverage off the existing and grow both markets
  21. Interesting article in Saturday age recognising the significance of banana prices. confirms the the foresight and relevance of this this threads contributors
  22. The interest that the AFLW has already produced is sure to be at its peak for GF The new followers to the game will be attracted to double header and unlikely to attend Melbourne V St Kilda The new followers include those that have been engaged by the two clubs who introduced Womansleague The two clubs playing the feature match Essendon and Hawthorn will benefit with increased gate etc MFC should do everything it can to have the double header at Etihad.
  23. Read an article that the impact of the women's league may mean they move the match. Essendon v Hawthorn may have to host the women's game as a curtain raiser oh and the fact that this fixture would be the same day that Melbourne play StKilda later in the day at Etihad is non relevant
  24. Agree totally. A career in Industrial relations, would indicate that likely outcome. There is little(no) consideration for community impacts, it's about self interest. I think Paul Keating got that right.
  25. Good points Macca, unfortunately there is little opportunity for those who fund the sport to direct how it will be distributed. i am sure most would want less to the administrators and more to the grass roots development etc, maybe more to the developing female sector. Perhaps a strike by the spectators would be more valuable to the progress of the game than a player strike.
