Cheers Scyphus! Even talking about them shows you get it. Ottens was much underrated. I asked months ago what changed for Gawn as I remember him being bossed and pushed around. The aggregation of his improvement has made him a top tier player and the lessons would worthwhile to other young players

The Roar's AFL expert tips and predictions, Anzac Day: Who takes the prize on the H&A season's biggest day?

Anyone who as ever played (ie any of us included) would say yes at least for the former game Aussie Rules. Detractors of ruck value include Grant Thomas, Gary Lyon and (secretly) Ken Hinkley. So Scyphus that’s not the sort of company you want to Port had a ruckman so good (Primus) that the AFL changed the rules

I can only watch these new slapping competitions on youtube for only a little while. Even our rudimentary knowledge of CTE should prohibit any head high contact. Who hasnt seen a relatively innocous contacts impact to a player who has previous trauma. Didnt Buddy get suspended for doing this to Cotchin who initiated it all by holds blocking etc for arguably a lighter hit? Again the outcome again by the AFL MRO. Stoopid

'Murky decision-making, novice administration and unaccountable governance' - how the AFL has fallen

I hope you are joking. New clubs to the AFL paid big licence fees. Except the Frankenstein creations such as GWS who are on the umbilical and teat. Port put all onto their AFL entry. You used the term business in your earlier post this morning

From his Richmond tenure he’s not as familiar as you supposed with player suspensions

No Naughty your team isn’t as they are one of the original teams in the VFL. But others around the country are as they have paid their way in. From the ACCC website “A franchisee bears the financial risk for their franchised business and pays money to the franchisor. In exchange for this money, the franchisor allows the franchisee to use the franchisor’s brand or system to sell products or services for a limited time”

Hilariously they are trying to address homophobia too. Chair Goyder “its our stance” (not our actions) . AFL integrity Unit may be our best sporting oxymoron

'Murky decision-making, novice administration and unaccountable governance' - how the AFL has fallen

A premiership is a combination of everything. A good excellent read about cumulative improvement or aggregation is Atomic Habits

'Murky decision-making, novice administration and unaccountable governance' - how the AFL has fallen

My mistake then. I note wryly that you have counted the MCG as away. That will amuse my friends in the other states. Should have got my facts rights tho’

I work in the Suicide Prevention sector Opps. Responsible for lots of loss of life here in Australia. Again its all about the income as opposed to what’s good for the community and the supporters.

“I can’t think of a single case of a flag winner that got there by virtue of a kind draw.” Last Western Bulldogs premiership ~ first 11 games at home

Notice the 2nd player is Master Toby Greene. Is it he’s bigger than you champ you didn’t barrel him? on the positive side we now know giraffes can dance : )

Mason Cox stuns everyone by outrageously candy-selling TWO Giants

Loving how he is interpreting Drapers after siren behaviour. As the septic orange hooligan says Sad : )

'Should have been a free kick to Draper': Leigh Matthews' hugely alternate view on Crows ending

So much to agree on here with Les (although his own club has benefited on the AFL obsession with income as opposed to the genuine good of the game). Sadly the mainstream media (not just 7) are complicit in not questioning the poor governance or else they will excluded from access

Yeah its hard being Toby. https://www.theage.com.au/national/victoria/greater-western-sydney-player-toby-greene-fined-after-assault-at-zagames-20141209-123e56.html

“No, just Toby,” he said. Never going to change because he doesn’t think he has a problem.
