Left Foot Snap

Well I think think Fritta is awesome!!

Turner - plenty to work with

Looks like Charlie Spargo laying a tackle......

Will be a protected species this week.

I agree Dub.

In country footy in SA the police would attend the games. While that is a huge drain on resources for every game, I would like to see the leagues work with Govt and the police on a program where the club/volunteers can call the police to have the offending scumbags removed in a timely manner. May need the introduction of additional fines or charges etc, but a move has to be made in the right direction. AFL should also lead a nation wide campaign against abuse at all levels.

I would say Scully. Club wanted to keep him but he was never invested like Gus.

Please don't ever say that again. I want to continue to love my club.

Hi KC, did Daw play? Seems to be missing from the stats. Edit: Sorry, just saw on another thread he didn't. Not a lot of hit outs in the stats, what was the ruck situation today?

They are Neeld era bad. Good players gone backwards, skills have vanished and if there is a system I can't see it. North are in a lot of trouble and I don't think it's all cattle.

Ok, thought it would be more interesting than that.

Really??

Quite right. Of course the real answer would lay in the coding platforms used by each. Land was more like a common forum build whereas that old Midnight set up ology used seemed to go unnoticed. But there is not a lot humour in that.

Sorry, just saw subsequent posts. I was reading demonland and demonology in the very early 2000s. For some reason Demonology made it through the government firewall but Demonland didn't.

Really, I thought it was much earlier than that.

Paul McNamee is back?

I would like to say in 2006 at Carrara vs the Adelaide Crows, when we were ripped off when an Aaron Davey gem of a goal was called a point by mistake. But unfortunately I have been to the Gabba a few times since. 2 from 2 at the MCG though!!!

I thought he took one up the ground in the first half, and then the one drifting into the pack in the fwd line. I'm not convinced about him as a pure forward still. Back up ruck and fwd is where I like him when needed.

I don't disagree with you. I am firmly in the Tmac camp. I also think Weid is more a replacement for Jackson as a second ruck, and Brown if needed. But I recall at least two strong marks he took tonight so credit where it is due. I was worried about his intensity (ball watches a bit for mine) but thought it improved through the match.

Took some tonight.

I still think Salem was meant to get it last year. He will be missed on the big occasion tonight.

No heart in GWS. Pretty poor effort.

Or Max. That is where my first thoughts went to as well. A ruckman in doubt.

Or like in game 1 vs the Dogs when Hunter got his first high/ducking free. I'm not into booing, but really laughed at how the crowd reacted.

Consistency will enable acceptance. No excuses. Players infringe, umpires adjudicate. If they want to make wholesale change then they need to get their ducks in row before they start. Not excuses as to why some were or were not paid. Brief the umpires and be consistent in the application. Otherwise there will be contention rather than success.
