Re: Tarryn Thomas, anyone?
When someone beats their partner because they're in a foul mood after their team loses, I think that means sport has already been brought into it. Not everyone has the luxury of 'escapism' or to 'forget life's troubles' Agree, this stance of 'make footy only about footy' is just not possible. Once ...

Re: Tarryn Thomas, anyone?
When a men fight one of them sometimes dies. When men fight women, guess who dies. How many of your 70% of male murder victims were killed by women? I'm sorry, remind me again why the gender of the assailant is relevant? Dead is dead, and when you're dead, I'm pretty sure it doesn't matter whether ...

Re: Excuses
I think Ross is giving reasons/excuses because he knows what fans don’t want to accept. At the moment we are not that good, so rather than just come out and say that and lose commercial support and interest, he takes on the excuses that are suggested to him in the press conferences. I think he knows...

Re: AFL StKilda tax sees Green free to play
Bne player's gesture to Mel's Petty? A case of bullying to be answered, notwithstanding size difference? Mental health priorities and all. Perhaps the AFL's social justice line is drawn a bit above that sort of banter. Press will milk it, but. What did Jake Carslile have to apologise for that time?...

Re: AFL StKilda tax sees Green free to play
These are not volunteer amateurs. AFL is a huge operation. Huge. Managing the rules is crucial to its integrity. There are 4 highly paid, fit, well resourced, well coached individuals given that responsibility. Rules may be tricky for an American but we get them. At a minimum there can be consisten...

Re: AFL StKilda tax sees Green free to play
My issue with this notion of the AFL being out to get us, the umpires favour other teams, etc is that when we do get the rub of the green, or actual errors are made in our favour, it is not acknowledged at all and posters who continually post about how the club is hard done by just overlook it and ...

Re: Windhager 1 match suspension
I presume everyone who said that Max should have got off on his charge because the player got up and kept playing will be hoping that Baker also gets off? I don't think the King and Baker incidents are the same - one was a clip as he ran past - and was extremely silly - the other seemed more of a t...

Re: AFL Dont have a drug issue....
Young people, middle aged people, and even older people take recreational drugs. They're everywhere and it's a reality we have to accept. The drugs that really count are the performance enhancing drugs like EPO and this is where the testing should focus the most. Most recreational drugs are not per...

Re: Max King 1 match suspension rough conduct
No one in AFL circles is talking about Tom Lynch and his head high late hit on Zak Butters. It was similar to Zak being a boxer and getting punched in the head. Sweep it under the carpet because every incident is highlighting the HUGE number of hits to the head in each game. Who the fk wants to rat...

I presume this is the incident being referred to, if the Twitter link works.

Re: Roma
Hayes If the concern of the OP is losing tapouts, Hayes is not the answer. He is 8cms shorter than Rowan and a forward/ruck rather than a ruck. A mobile forward/Ruck is what our structure needs is my guess. I'm not thinking Hayes is introduced to win tap outs becaue a good mobile Ruck due is more v...

Re: Webster appalling
Was Simpkin knocked out? Was stretchered off? Any facial injuries? Don’t think contact was made to his head. Whiplash I think got him. Maybe time to leave the thinking to those that can. Looks like head high contact to me. https://static.ffx.io/images/$zoom_1%2C$multiply_0.7554%2C$ratio_1.776846%2C...

Re: Hunter Clark is injured again and looking at 6 weeks...
Enough is enough. Time to move him on and get the best possible draft pick for him. Even if it is just a late second rounder so be it. We cannot afford to have players continually injured. Get rid of him and move on........ https://preview.redd.it/7pbp59whrh191.png?width=1200&format=png&aut...
