Seedsman cleared of an ACL

good news for the guy. interesting to see what damage comes out of it

 

[Doctor Feel]

Will still be 8-12 weeks with bone bruising. Also that's the best of a shit scenario for him, which is great news.

i love how tex bought a drone (how much is that one worth 8 grand?) and lost it on his first test flight lmao. he's like 5 years behind the initial wave of drones trending and caught up with hilarious results

It flew as one.

 

[Ford Fairlane]

The turf was dry and divoty all night. It’s well below the standard it should be. Whether that’s been exacerbated because of playing 3 games and associated trampling between Saturday afternoon and last night is up for debate, but it’s shocking atm.

That divot you mentioned earlier was huge for Adelaide Oval. SCG type displacement.

Had a feeling he had not done it last night. Good news for him for sure, but still, if everyone who has a dicky knee gets a cart assisted lap of honour we are in for some long quarters.

You mean that lap of honour was all for nought?

Has anyone seen Tex’s drone??View attachment 648385

Is this it?

Looks like there’s some form with the cart driver at Adelaide Oval.

I remember last week with Watts the dude was going a touch over 0.3km/h. He’s got a broken leg not a head injury ffs, you can drive a bit faster mate.

Inb4 it’s a Port supporter...

Comment made by fan attending a game at port adelaides home ground... Cut to port cap left on a seat at Adelaide oval with ominous music

 

[finbarr]

We’ve used our property steward at our home games in the past, not sure if that’s changed this year.

 

[PAFC27]

Is Adelaide Oval necessarily to blame? As far as I can tell the other common denominator is Crows medical and conditioning staff? It's not like they've had a string of similar injuries before

 

[philreich]

Get some water on the oval ffs hasn't rained for 5mths sma trying to save money on the water bill?

Simple - just schedule more Port home games there: it'll rain every time!!!!

So, still faster than the fat f**k who waddled onto the ground with the stretcher

Sanfl sent out “their” code of conduct for junior comp starting this weekend. No acknowledgement of source, lazy buggers

 

[ft2010sc]

So I was watching the game tonight at work with a West Coast supporter and he starts telling me how advanced the West Coast coaching group is compared to the rest of the league. "We came up with a strategy that after an opposition player got a kick, we would shepard him from running to the next contest. We did it all year whenever we could and it was unbelievable how much difference it made, I haven't seen anyone else try it this year, noone has picked up on it."
Me - "Um, yeah thats a downfield free Luke. No-one else is doing it because it's against the rules"

Has anyone else noticed this with West Coast? make a habbit of not watching them as I find it hard to keep a cool head. I hate them almost as much as the Crows

It’s just a block to stop a ‘give and get’ and teams have been doing it since the 1990s.

If they're actually holding the guy to stop a 'give and get', not only is it a down the field free kick, but its also a 50m penalty.
