Farewell Sam Frost
yep... he would be an unsigned player

Farewell Sam Frost
we are 17 so only GC can trump us for Langdon He just puts his price out there. Freo can have some steak knives if need be. Stretch/JKH or similar. Hawks could get trumped by 8 odd clubs for Frost.. very different

Farewell Sam Frost
Dollars and term of contract... the curse of a 10-22 ranked player hitting form at signing time .. we know it well. His worth probably increased 100k per season in 2019. At least if he goes to Hawthorn they will have to trade unlike us for Langdon. Second rounder or player if he has to go.

WELCOME TO DEMONLAND - ADAM TOMLINSON
agree but isn't that 80% if not more of a team these days. Anyway enough of my musing.... can he kick and can he run to space to receive

WELCOME TO DEMONLAND - ADAM TOMLINSON
Pardon my ignorance but what is the role and position of a wingman in modern football? The defensive zone on a kick out generally positions the forward as the last player in the zone and he is usually no more than 80metres from goal. Mind you I have much the same problem with the half forward line. Centre is just another name for a midfielder.

Finals Week 1
" The AFL’s case did not make reference to Greene making contact with Bontempelli’s eyes " Strange... the media were full of the eye gouging story this morning.

The Ashes - 2019
A hard day at the office but the win was thoroughly deserved. Wicket didn't deteriorate ...perhaps because it was so cold on the first three days. A very good crowd for a fifth day.

strange declaration... thought for a moment he was heading off for an Indian toilet break

Privileged to watch this innings by Smith. That temporary stand reminds me of one they built at one of the stadiums in Russia for the World Cup

The Ashes - 2019

-
The Ashes - 2019
300 lead now....after the early stumbles the equation begins
-
The Ashes - 2019
still around 30 here. Thank heavens for fans
-
The Ashes - 2019
It will be interesting to see if and when England go on the defensive. Another 20 runs without loss and I think the balance shifts
-
The Ashes - 2019
yep.. should get to that this is a 3 hour session. The time/run equation is still telling me around 400... maybe 375
-
The Ashes - 2019
wow 10 runs off the first over

The Ashes - 2019
The Thommo Lillee days were big but that Ashes series marked the start of perhaps what was the longest period of sustained domination by any team in cricketing history. India have come close but at best they matched us, Hard to compare earlier eras as they played comparatively few tests.
-
The Ashes - 2019
That was the start of Australia's dominance
-
The Ashes - 2019
if Warner is going to hand over his wicket like that (double zeros this test) what can be expected of the remainder 200 is the target ... any idea of today's remaining overs/time

Riccardio ended up at 5.... might have been 4 with luck total shambles

LeClerc but it was farcical ..... all the drivers bar one mistimed their last run' Looking similar to the cricket

So out but no reviews left. Thought these umpires were supposed to be better than the last lot
