There've been some ignorant posts in this thread, but this takes the cake. I'd sit this one out, you clearly have no idea what you're talking about.

Disagree completely. Once you start dumping players whenever they hit a speed bump you start having trouble keeping players or attracting new ones. If we want the players to give their all in playing for the club and each other, that has to go two ways. Just as players can't decide "when to go"...

They may only get diagnosed later in life, but ADHD is a neurodevelopmental disorder, i.e., present from birth. Though the vast majority of people who have ADHD are undiagnosed (around 80%).

Delusional. Just because his name hasn't been splashed all over the newspapers it doesn't mean he's been doing "fine". Though, even if he has, for someone with ADHD the costs and effort of doing so can be unsustainable, especially over the longer term.

The club have been pretty transparent about all this (to the extent that it's possible while respecting his privacy) and have been upfront about calling out his shortcomings when required. So when they say, "he's being supported through a private health matter", he's being supported through a...

Just because it doesn't fit your agenda doesn't mean it's BS.

Which was the right thing to do. Once you start dumping players whenever they have problems not only will no-one want to come, others will want to leave. That "culture" that you're so dismissive of is what attracts players like Lever and May to the club while keeping Trac, Pickett etc.

Did he actually say that? I thought he spoke in more general terms about protection etc, which plenty of people then interpreted as "you won't get it". Equally, in the early days there was so little data it was all bit of a moving target. Easy to be right in hindsight.

Dees supporter, sorry to intrude. Handy pickup, very happy for Oscar. He has good football smarts, reads the ball well in the air and is a useful kick for a KP player. Also a good bloke and teammate. Has his limitations (mainly speed), but can run all day. For the last few years his career has...

Wonder why that is. After all, what would an AFL head coach know?

With all due respect, that's not true of the Dees: our backline has been decimated this year. From our GF team, only May and Bowey have played from Round 1. Rivers came back in last week (but is underdone), and we're still missing Hibberd, Petty and in particular, Lever and Salem. Anyway, hope...

Unfortunately true.

Not sure what organic food is doing in that little list of off-with-the-fairies.

Yes we know, and there are more than 2 studies. Also, in regards to Covid, all immunity is "natural" immunity - it's your body's immune system doing the work, no matter how it learnt to do so (vaccination or prior infection).
