This is pretty random stuff.

But did anyone or their kids ‘run out’ with the team ever in their life?

I don’t know if they still do it for randoms - but when I was 9-10 I wrote a letter to Pagan (2006) and asked if I could meet the team and run out with them.

Anyway, I got the gig, met and got pictures with an injured Koutafides, Trent Sporn and Chris Bryan. And was able to watch them in the dressing rooms with my old man pre game.

My favourite player - no hate pls - was Nick Stevens who I waited for when they ran out and had a merry chat with him about his dog during the warm up around the square.

This was at the Gabba and we lost.

Just a random reminisce.

My father told me during the 2002-2007 period that there’s only one way from 16th and that’s up.

The AFL introduced two new teams and we finished 18th.

Random.

Never did Cringle. Never been in rooms. Would love to some time.
Sounds like a precious memory for you.

An utter dog, should be wearing stripes and I don't mean north melbournes.

Mark Korda appointed Pies chairman.

It's fitting as the Pies are morally bankrupt!

Only one thing he was/is good at.

Greens doesn't run with his club jumper stripes. Don't trample the sentiment with cheap reality.

Sheesh.

Do we have any doctors in the house who care to comment on this?

it begins.............

It opens up a pandora's box of questions that the AFL/NRL & soccer do not want to be answered.

By definition, pain-killing injections are temporary performance-enhancing drugs. They enable an injured player to participate and see out a game.
How many players on a weekly basis receive one or multiple injections before, during and after a game?
Are the players warned of the damage it could be doing to them in the long term? Are they lucid enough to understand the explanation in the heat of the moment?

How many players have had adverse reactions to the pain-killing injections? Have these incidents been recorded or tracked?

Should the player's partner also be involved in the decision-making process? Should players only be permitted a certain number of pain-killing injections?

What oral pain killers are players prescribed and given on a daily or weekly basis. Who monitors that the players intake of these medications and decides that they have had enough?

How many players have become addicted to painkillers? Are there records kept? If no, why not?

Should any player who requires a pain-killing injection before a game, be permitted to play? Should they be required to a sign a legal waiver? Do they sign a legal waiver?

This is a lawyer's dream case, because you can't answer any or all of the questions with any degree of certainty.

Settle the case quietly and start addressing the above issues.

So the Saints who were supposed to be a top 4 team lost to Port by twice as much as we did.. wonder if they will get a week long pile on::

The bonus with the Saints form is we miss out on another episode of : Ratten - Hindsight Messiah

I was not aware the epidurals were part of the scope of practice to enable AFL players to get through games. That's concerning and needs to be audited, particularly requiring them on an almost weekly basis, masking a debilitating/worsening injury.

For reference, as I'm sure most here would be aware of, that's the same modality of regional anaesthesia offered to women in labour.

Would have liked a sports medicine rotation at some stage during my formative training, a genuine insight into how the industry operates.

Giving a player an epidural before or during a game and expecting them to play is insane. Pain is the body's signal to stop doing what you are doing and rest up, or possibly retire if the problem is serious.

The world is ending. I am sure of it.

Just had the last sign of the apocalypse.

Adelaide coach M. Nicks just said lynch (sub) needs pain killers to play, even though he’s not injured, because they would never play someone with an injury!
did I understand that correctly?
