    Nick Lower

    This guy has given us great value so far. A tough, unglamorous, uncompromising big-bodied ball extractor. I can't remember what we paid for him but he is proving to be excellent value.

    Luke "not a doctor" Darcy

    Absolute rubbish about Sandi doing a PCL. The most common way a ruckman does a PCL is landing his foot on the ground after jumping forward, and fixing the foot on the ground against momentum - ie femur shifts on tibia, pulls the ligament off the bone. Nothing like the Sandi incident - just...

    Can someone who plays soccer explain..

    to me: Why is it a penalty if you don't move your arm from you side and the ball hits you on the shoulder?

    Harv's brain tumour

    http://www.theage.com.au/afl/afl-news/afl-coach-reveals-secret-my-brain-tumour-battle-20100612-y4pd.html Great story on Harv's private battle with acromegaly, caused by a growth hormone secreting tumour in his pituitary gland. This condition is notoriously hard to diagnose; he was very lucky...

    Friday Night Anthropology

    In Melbourne for tonight, thought I'd take myself along to the G for the Pies/Blues game. Say I'm doing a PhD on crowd behaviour at football games. Where would be the best vantage point to observe the Collingwood Cheersquad from without being subjected to saliva- or blood-borne viral...

    taking the ball out of the ruck

    Second quarter of the the Port v Pies game today, Wood takes the ball out of the ruck, is tackled, handballs after being tackled. The Port players claim holding the ball, but Mclaren says "he handballed it". I thought that in a ruck contest, prior opportunity goes out the window and that if...
