i think the fact that he hasn't played all that deep this year and so his kicks (and frees) haven't been shots at goal (compared with recent history) may have something to do with the deception.

sydney have an easier run home than us, if we beat them then we will gain and they will lose % (old fashioned 8 point game in premiership and % points). hate to say it, but i hope essendon rolls them this week. essendon won't catch us as they are a win & 8% behind and they won't win two more ga...

I think Roo has seen the biggest decrease in 'frees for' of anyone in our team. Whereas in previous seasons he seemed to be reasonably well looked after, this year it almost seems like 'open season' on pushing, tunnelling, chopping his arms by defenders. riewoldt free for / against Year Games FF FA...

first it's "we never get frees", and if the tallies are close then "it's not how many, it's where you get them". not much you can do, some players are clever, some are clumsy, but i agree that the totals have been somewhat lopsided of late. TAKE NOTE - in every win we have lost t...

yeah, consistency would be surprising about now.

but how can you expect consistency from the MRP when we don't get it from the AFL (judd's third part deals ok, scully's not), umpires (just ask GT) and a lot of teams (crows, demons, etc).

he's exciting - but i'd rather he was more rioli exciting than good kick / out of bounds kick exciting.

really liked his effort of late though, dominating at VFL level has obviously helped his confidence

If he goes for rough play the lowest level (negligent, low impact, high contact) is 125 points plus 30% gives 162.5 points then plus 50 carry over = 212.5 points and two weeks. With an early plea this would reduce to about 160 points and one week. nice call. who plays in his stead? http://www.saint...

and how would you be able to check they are members? you could open registration to be free access ahead of round 1 and then close it down until october. then when you ban someone they can't re-register until october so you don't have to worry about the IP address issue. you'd need to explain this o...
