The heart beats true

I don’t mean to sound condescending about professional athletes, because it’s a highly specialised skill and requires a lot of commitment, but how can a multi billion dollar entity seriously think it’s a good idea to put someone on the commission who literally has no experience with administration? An advisory role, sure. But on the actual commission? That’s nuts. The guys never had another job, let alone the experience required.

Is this reported somewhere?

Love this!

I live for this kind of information. I’ll be at a pub quiz in 2029, this will be a question, and the entire pub will be in awe of the stupid [censored] I know. Thanks @Webber. Love it

A draft pick is a lottery. Look at Bowey and Laurie. One pick apart. Going a game clear of an interstate team in 2nd when we are massively in contention is worth a lot more than pick 4 vs pick 5.

Terrible result for us

I want Freo to win. Draft picks mean a lot less to me than multiple home finals.

I find it hilarious that Brisbane pay $2 million of their annual salary cap to tall forwards - who they then tell to get out of the 50 and let the little bloke go to work.

Freo falling over

In the last quarter he’s was blatantly held 3-4 times. Their defence got away with murder in the last. Jake was having a laugh about with Goodwin post game.

I prefer Joel Smith behind the ball. He’s athleticism is better suited to straight lines. He won the ball back a couple of times today and looked great. I’d like Grundy in, and a chance to look at him and Max again.

Harrison’s had no luck with injuries this year.

Shocked to see Zorko playing. I assumed he was working as a eunuch now.

10 goal turn around. Rested our stars in the last. Move on.

Joel Smith has been absolutely Fantastic

This looks a lot like yesterdays game.

Jordan has been absolutely horrible. Cost us 3 goals directly.

That legitimately sucks for Daicos, but his career will have a lot more opportunities. Murphy 2-3 with a foot injury is a concern at this time of year too. Feet are very hard to get right. That means Moore has to do a lot more one on one work. Changes their structure a fair bit.

I loved it. You can teach a kid how to channel that aggression, but you can’t teach them the aggression itself. He’s going to be a star.

Umpires at taxpayers stadium. Every time.

Rhys Stanley is a liability

If a footballer from the 60’s was cryogenically frozen and woke to watch the modern game I can’t figure out if they’d be more confused that the ruckmen have to nominate to compete, or that the names of the 2 ruckmen are Esava and Dante.

The term ‘bull’ gets overused a lot in Football commentary.

Kenny Hinkley on the boundary rubbing his hands together is giving me strong Monty Burns vibes.
