Where is sharp at, Lions fans?

Probably at home, cooking a nice meal.

 

[Grasshopper17]

Where is sharp at, Lions fans?

On a serious note tho, if Ah Chee does go forward it may open up a wing role for Sharp? Geelong have played all their matches except 1 so far (Easter Monday v Hawthorn) on a narrow ground. Are the wings an area where we could look to expose them?

 

[M Malice]

Lions' 6 points:


1) Medical report clear

2) Lever had left arm completely free and used it

3) Lever's right arm only partly pinned, could move the bottom of his arm

4) Head movement of Lever is him looking at umpire

5) Cameron is smaller

6) Three 'low' impact examples

If Sharp was any good it would be a massive bonus for the team because someone with his reputed skillset is exactly what we need but to date I haven't seen him up to exposing anyone.

Aren't their 3 main winger types exceptional runners ie. Holmes, Miers and Close?

I could be completely wrong as I haven't watched much of them this year, but IIRC those 3 were mentioned on a footy show recently.

 

[scoman]

If Sharp was any good it would be a massive bonus for the team because someone with his reputed skillset is exactly what we need but to date I haven't seen him up to exposing anyone.

He got his debut at the start of his first season and a good chunk of us were impressed. Unfortunately, a significant injury meant he was unable to consolidate a fairly good start to his career.

On reflection, though, it is possible we may have been just excited that I guy with his running ability could also play footy, didn't avoid contact, had decent skills etc.

I agree with what you say above in that he hasn't been able to use his running power to expose the opposition. At least not often enough.

 

[Gadzorks]

Zorko forward, not Answerth.

I know McKenna is a half back, but I want to keep zorko in that role. He is just so clever and calm.

 

[FFB1]

I do like NBs idea of taking Bruce Reville off the rookie list and giving him a crack at Zac's role.

Does he try and take on 4 tacklers like Bailey?

Tribunal stunner as Lions WIN ban appeal thanks to Charlie Cameron’s ‘exemplary record’

Tribunal stunner as Lions WIN ban appeal thanks to star forward’s ‘exemplary record’

www.foxsports.com.au

 

[dlanod]

Oh * me.

"In an effort to explain Cameron's exemplary character, Anderson (Lions) is now referencing the definition of 'exemplary' in the Macquarie dictionary."

Quality.

 

[M Malice]

Oh * me.

"In an effort to explain Cameron's exemplary character, Anderson (Lions) is now referencing the definition of 'exemplary' in the Macquarie dictionary."

Quality.

He is not so subtly inferring the panel is so stupid it needs the word explained, what a buffoon.

 

[Elixuh]

Oh * me.

"In an effort to explain Cameron's exemplary character, Anderson (Lions) is now referencing the definition of 'exemplary' in the Macquarie dictionary."

Quality.

We get the best for Charlie.

 

[BRAB]

Oh * me.

"In an effort to explain Cameron's exemplary character, Anderson (Lions) is now referencing the definition of 'exemplary' in the Macquarie dictionary."

Quality.

The whole speech was actually quite beautiful.

"To whom it may concern. The dictionary defines superlative as: of the highest kind, quality, or order, surpassing all else, or others. Supreme. I define it as Charlie Cameron. As a footballer, as a leader, as a man, and as a friend, he is of the highest kind, quality, and order. Supreme."

 

[Lionheart182]

 

[Elixuh]

Things must be dire. We are trying to bamboozle the Tribunal to force an error of law, like old Patty Cripps.

Gets better.

The AFL points out O'Brien was "unfortunately delisted" at the end of last year and the player tackled was Ollie Hollands."

Actually that second one is pretty impressive.

The AFL points out O'Brien was "unfortunately delisted" at the end of last year and the player tackled was Ollie Hollands.

 

[BRAB]

Things must be dire. We are trying to bamboozle the Tribunal to force an error of law, like old Patty Cripps.

Note that this argument would still hold if Charlie went into the crowd, picked up an infant and booted it through the big sticks.

 

[Elixuh]

Gets better.

"Earlier, Adrian Anderson referred to Jordan Dawson's tackle on Carlton No.4 Lochie O'Brien.

The AFL points out O'Brien was "unfortunately delisted" at the end of last year and the player tackled was Ollie Hollands."

When the Tribunal finds out we're creating fake tackles using AI, using players who aren't even in the system anymore.

 

[Section 5]

It's never the tackle we have been arguing against. It is 100% a sling tackle and exactly what the afl is ruling out. Its the fact that it was no where near medium impact.

No argument there.
But if players want to run the risk and continue with this sort of tackle, they run the risk of missing a week or weeks.

 

[martinson]

Oh * me.

"In an effort to explain Cameron's exemplary character, Anderson (Lions) is now referencing the definition of 'exemplary' in the Macquarie dictionary."

Quality.

He's the pits as a lawyer. Besides being very annoying.

Just unable to resonate or impact at all for the client.

Except negatively.
