The heart beats true

I believe it’s a colouring book of words Deb Brayshaw called him on the phone - so he’ll need all the shades of blue as well.

Well that’s very easy to disprove, so if that’s his argument the footage says, clearly, the opposite.

Here’s how I want this to go down: - Angus is fit and healthy, continues on his career and has no ongoing issues. - Maynard gets suspended for the rest of the finals. - Everyone in the future refers to this story by saying ‘remember that time Brayden Maynard called Angus Brayshaw’s mum, and she told him to [censored] off?’

Good point. It must be difficult to run a site on a Nokia 3310 that’s been smuggled in via someone’s ‘prison wallet’.

Good God. Does ’Nick’s Bulletin Board’ run on Windows 95? Are they still trying to make sure they are Y2K compliant?

Gus is feeling a lot better. I’ve been angry for days but hearing that made me realise that’s all that matters. I’m going to be pumped if we have a win on Friday night. It’s been a horrible few days.

I agree. He suits our game style.

This feels a lot like last year.

A lot of people seem to have missed that the umpire, who sees thousands of ‘football acts’ a week, and was the closest official to the incident, immediately reported Maynard. The bloke whose job it is to oversee the rules was 10 metres away and reported him. That tells you everything. I think the MRO was going to be overhauled anyway, and this will give them the impetus to do it. I’d be shocked if Christian is in that role next year.

Surely this thread should be called ‘Ruckin Roulette’.

Watch Chris Scott on 360 tonight. He specifically says ‘we coach our players not to turn their shoulders in to others as there’s not much we can do to help them then. That’s what we’ve been advised by the AFL’ Before that Ross Lyon was asked if he thought the rules exist, and can be applied, to this incident and without thinking he said ‘They are being applied. That’s why it’s going to the tribunal’. The industry knows. It was a dog act.

It was good. Whateley is articulate and considered. Also very interested when he said as an aside that Brayshaw wanted nothing to do with Maynard Thursday night post game, and was angry. How he feels the AFL will know, and they will know ugly this can get for them.

Garry Lyon got this right tonight on On The Couch. It’s good viewing. He knows they’ll change the rules to legislate this out. Buckley and Brown tried to argue that Maynard had no other option. There’s a disgraceful amount of victim blaming happening in this incident. Talking about Brayshaw moving off his line. Absolute rubbish. I kept screaming at the TV every time they said it was a ‘football act’ to show me one single example of a player doing this in a game in the last 20 years. Players run out of the front of a centre bounce 10 times a game. Thats 35,000 example in 20 years. It’s never happened.

Little Nicky is a great nickname. 🤣

.

Yeah it’s on Access All Areas. They are talking about who will come in and go out and he literally says ‘we know Angus Brayshaw will miss for other reasons’.

Damien Barrett on the AFL website this morning with Matthew Lloyd says ‘we know Angus Brayshaw will miss this weekend for other reasons’. They don’t even want to say the word concussion. This is becoming laughable. Its cult like.

This is good intel.

That’s a great spot to watch the footy 👍

Same 3183, but there’s 3 of us. I think the odd numbers stitched us up. M12 will be rocking on Friday night 👍

Yeah, I’m ok with it. I just love sitting behind the benches on the wing - but so do 100k other people, so I should appreciate what I have! 👍

If you get a bad gateway time out on purchase don’t panic. I got one and then went back and the seats had been paid for and allocated to me.

Do you work for Ticketek? Are you part of the global conspiracy to deny me good finals tickets?! 😂

Not for me it wasn't. I have priority access and could only get 3 tickets in M12. What's left in M50 are singles.

Meanwhile I can't get through!
