Only problem with Goodes wife is that she is a little short. I ideally would like her to be 10cm taller as that way boy or girl, the kid would be a good height for the AFL or AFLW.

Well I also want Sam Ried's wife to have a history of having excellent knees and hamstrings.

You're using teenage logic which simply does not stand up anywhere but school, and by the sounds of things uni.

Go and read the legislation and then come back and have another go. Rampe was definitely out of line, and at the very least should apologise.

I’m actually being dead serious. If one thinks using ‘little girl’ as an adjective is disrespectful or offensive, then one must find little girls to be disrespectful or offensive in some way.

Disagree. Calling someone a bastard is not that bad, but if that person said "black bastard" or "asian bastard" then it is way way way worse.

What does race have to do with anything?

It is sexism, I was using a racism example.

Just saw a clip of Mills trowing water over McCartin while being interviewed . Saw some footage of Menzels first goal.

Well I also want Sam Ried's wife to have a history of having excellent knees and hamstrings.

So their children continue to suffer from quad, calf and Achilles injuries like their Dad (I can’t recall Reid ever doing a knee and can’t really recall many hamstring complaints either!)?

 

[Kirkswan]

Rampe was not saying anything derogatory about little girls, he was saying that a grown man's voice should be stronger and carry more easily.

Yes, I know... it's the way he went about saying it... I'm not having a go at him. I'm simply saying why it is an issue...

 

[The King!]

Yes and Bernard Toohey not in front of McVeigh on a half back flank. They are kidding

Toohey is Victorian though isn’t he

 

[Mick Oxlong]

Toohey is Victorian though isn’t he

Born in Barooga, NSW

Pretty sure birth was criteria. No shifting goal posts like VFL/AFL

Love a bit of Jim Main, here he is with Bernard Toohey:

Selection criteria:

The rules governing selection for NSW in State of Origin apply.
If a player went to school interstate but their parents remained in NSW, they remain eligible (e.g. Shane Crawford and Neale Daniher).
A player had to have played a minimum of 100 games in a senior league (VFL/AFL, SANFL, WAFL).
Selection is based on quantitative and qualitative methodologies.
Players must be placed in positions where they predominantly played throughout their careers.

So Paul Kelly played predominantly as a Forward Pocket? Even more impressive that he won that Brownlow then!

Well, even after a win, for the eighth week in a row we apparently aren't a talking point in afl.com's "what we learned" crap. Apparently we just don't exist anymore!!
