15 min mark of 3rd quarter- Doogs loops a handball into traffic- he never takes his eyes off it, grabs it, looks to kick corridor, no options. Has a cheap handball option in Nas but sees Membrey out of the corner of his eye and fashions a kick to the wing, all whilst three opponents bearing down...
There's definitely something about him. Incredible hands. Has composure and evasiveness. Kicking ranges from excellent to lazy / almost missing his boot. Tackling has improved but still misses the odd howler. But ultimately he needs to get his running to an AFL standard or all the positives are...
I had great seats for the 2008 Hawks prelim (Rob Harvey's last game) and was sat next to a rather elderly lady who did literally nothing except scream at Hayden Kennedy all night, even before he'd bounced a ball. She paid virtually no attention the the game and completely ruined what little...
Given our supposed cap space it's ripe for a gentleman's agreement.
Assuming there are no offers for McKay that trigger Band 1, and we are in the position to make one, and he is happy to come, and the AFL cave on the Sanders/NGA situation (all big assumptions), would you rather:
Pick 3, ~Pick...
IMO Geelong were the best team in the comp by as significant a margin as we've seen in a while. As has been documented, at the start of the year they did away with their coaches' line duties and instead aligned everyone to a team-first philosophy, so they no longer needed to worry about the KPIs...
IMO Clark+9 for 3 is no good (3 becomes 4 and everyone from Sheezel down has question marks) but if North really want him I would love us to roll the dice and swap future first rounders instead.
Could turn out worse than Clark+9 for 3, but back to back spoons, a percentage of 55 and a poor...
That's one way of framing it. The only thing more overrated than draft picks themselves (outside the top few) is referring to them by their round.
The other reading is we are giving up pick 9, a pick hopefully in the teens, a player allergic to gut running, and a flight risk who may have far...
If the North/Port JHF deal is stalling I hope we're dangling some De Goey dollars in front of Connor Rozee. His second half of the year was as good as anyone's IMO. And a childhood Saints supporter of course.
Also need to do all we can to swap (gamble) future firsts with North given that Harley...
The thing with the numbers is the they are significantly lagged. Nobody hanging out on Bondi yesterday will test positive for COVID-19 today. The time between contracting the virus to becoming symptomatic, getting tested and finding out results must be about 10 days on average?
So the increases...
There is actually:
17.12 OTHER A Free Kick shall be awarded against a Player who:
(f) intentionally lifts a Player from the same Team to contest the football;
On current output, I would take Kelly, Coniglio, Whitfield, Ward, Greene, Cameron, Haynes or Williams over Shiel. No wonder GWS' cap is tight.
It is easy to get seduced by "outside" players like Gaff and Shiel because they often have the ball in space. Less immediate pressure, time to carry the...
Given the precedent set by the Sirengate fiasco, the AFL must step in and void that score and at least show some sort of consistency. They have fixed scores at the end of quarters in the past so this should be no different.
Umpire is lucky the Blues were 15 goals up and not 5 points down.

Re: Sheffield Shield: Tasmani v Western Australia @ Hobart (Thu - Sun)
Bird removes both openers in the space of 4 balls - figures of 2-2 in his sixth. Another bag here and he might be pushing for a seat on the plane to the Caribbean? Though I would fancy my chances on this deck
Thanks for...
Re: Sheffield Shield: Tasmani v Western Australia @ Hobart (Thu - Sun)
Just got the stream working, that pic above is indeed the pitch - wow. Maybe we can bat on the other one?
Re: Sheffield Shield: Tasmani v Western Australia @ Hobart (Thu - Sun)
No idea what our top order will look like but assume it will be along the lines of
Cowan
Cazzulino
Kruger
Ponting (c)
Wells
Faulkner
Butterworth
Krejza
Jones
Laughlin
Bird
Top 6 not exactly filling me with...
Re: Sheffield Shield: Tasmani v Western Australia @ Hobart (Thu - Sun)
Will not be impressed if Bailey is 12th man for Australia today - huge loss. From what I hear Krejza is the worst affected with the tummy bug, would also be a big out, in a bit of form with the bat too
WA line up looks...
Coyte lbw was pretty plumb, looked like he was walking off before the umpire gave it. Abbott a bit late on the shot and bowled
Think we have bowled well this morning, Bird moving it around a little bit and Faulkner bowling producing some brutes although maybe a bit too short
agree, no idea why he's not bowling, unless he is trying not to be a selfish captain and overcompensating. looks like we are giving the single to crosthwaite too.. come on, he's not bradman...
