Re: Paddy to wear a helmet!
This is the kind of thing Paddy needs to wear- no more concussion problems:

The ruby union guys wear those soft helmets.Leo.J wrote: ↑Sat 26 May 2018 7:46am The science on helmets and concussions comes from other sports, most of it has been done in sports where they wear hard helmets.
There’s been no studies that I’m aware of that have been undertaken specifically with AFL players, soft helmets and concussions.
Padding between a collision of two hard surfaces reduces the impact. So it would have to reduce some concussions, not all, but some.
Wear a helmet Paddy.

Re: Paddy to wear a helmet!
Cant believe he just walked straight back in to the team.
Gets picked only based on his draft pick #.

11 possessions no goals
As ex-president Peter Summers said:

Re: Paddy to wear a helmet!
I think he had a concussion with a medico who told him to wear a helmet.
The more you know, the more you know you don't know.
When I was a young child, I knew that I knew so much about so much.
Now that I am old and know so much more, I know that I know so much about so little, and so little about so much.

Re: Paddy to wear a helmet!
How many key forwards get selected to play based on the number of goals Paddy has kicked this year???? He's just not good enough.....

Re: Paddy to wear a helmet!
I agree, should play him for the rest of the year unless he falls right off. There’s only upsides to doing this.

Re: Paddy to wear a helmet!
David King analysis on Super Saturday interesting. Paddy also played to a plan to negate Rance, by essentially staying in the goal square when he would normally lead or going wide. Rance was not able to play his normal game to a fair extent, and the plan worked. Didn't help Paddy's stats, which seem to be the be all and end all to some on here, but I think Paddy is an integral part of our future forward line. Let's hope he can stay on the park.

Hoping Paddy plays every round
I feel the more familiarity Paddy chalks up week in & week out he'll only benefit the more.
Glad he's using the helmet & played the game-plan/ negating Rance @ times as I heard it on the radio.
Well done Gresh on his 1/2 dozen.
GO SAINTS

Re: Paddy to wear a helmet!
Good move Con. Posting with images is much more entertaining than your morose text. Perhaps a few more cartoon images might suit?congorozides wrote: ↑Sun 27 May 2018 11:41amtakeaway wrote: ↑Sun 27 May 2018 10:41am David King analysis on Super Saturday interesting.
