What a surprise Kane's dad saying nothing to see here defending the SMA.

Andrew Fagan would fit in so well at AFL House. As shifty as they come.

You mean that lap of honour was all for nought?

That’s actually really embarrassing. I’ve seen guys walk off with an ACL but he carried on like a two bob watch.

Shane, 5AA Caller.

The replay of last nights game is on now. Tecks takes an uncontested mark in the scoreboard pocket and the crowd behind him go berserk. Tecks lines up from 50 on a tough angle without even looking inboard, sprays it. Oxygen is sucked out of the stadium.

The longer this goes on and the more they want him to re-capture his form, the more of them start to realise he never had it to begin with.

No ACL, but it sounds like a fair bit of damage to cartilage and bone. But yeah, he defo should have jogged off.

I'd instruct my players not to go near injured opposition players on the buggy this age of afl snags encouraged by the likes of Soppy Whateley in the media is way out of hand.
I want warriors with no feeling for the oppo if it's a mate you can contact them after the game.

Carn. Just because his ACL is intact doesn’t mean his knee isn’t significantly damaged.

The initial impact of that sort of hyperextension is excruciatingly painful. We're talking minor degrees of difference between what happened and a full blown knee reconstruction.

I have a new hero.

ps it’s you tough guy.

Reminder that Geelong supporters in 2018 wanted Scott sacked because they weren't winningly enough.

Probably not as embarrassing as this post. That was a pretty nasty hyper-extension, and is a very different animal to an ACL. People sometimes do their ACL and don't even know about it.

Lol dude my point is two trainers & hop off. I as well as yourself have seen players walk off with worse. He did get off the cart pretty well though don’t you think ?

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

SANFL must've seconded Ian Shuttlecock from the Crows...

You're not standing by your post at all. You started out basically calling Seedsman soft for getting on the cart, but now you've changed tac to criticise the players who high fived him and the fuss others made, things completely out of his control. Just walk away mate.

Who's looking forward to the game tonight? I am curious to see if one team pulls out a form slump or whether they go around like two drunk boxers.

I haven’t seen two drunks go at it since last night so yeah an actual game of footy would be nice.

I’m hoping for a dystopian Thunderdome type event out on the MCG tonight.

Who did you have in a headlock?

 

[Magus]

I'm tipping Melbourne because even though they were terrible against Geelong, they still weren't 'run to the bench whilst the ball is right next to you' kind of bad. That signals a special kind of disinterest.

 

[chachi11]

So much preseason hype around Melb (best list in the AFL lol) and Bombers.
I seriously dislike Melbourne, hope they get thumped.

 

[finbarr]

I simply can’t bring myself to hope Simon Goodwin comes out of this a winner.

Essendon to win with a kick after the siren.

 

[It Just Is]

I’ve never wanted a draw so bad.

 

[ozph1870]

Melbourne should win by 80 plus..

I don't know which I want published first:
