Is there also a reason he didn’t get chosen so many times before this? Could be a list and coaching issue - if so that could get ugly for the Tigers.

Could do a lot worse for a role model than Taylor Duryea - absolutely gave it his all every game. Loved his work when he played for us.

JDG has been exonerated once via the courts - the original reported extent of charges in NY was not what he eventually got charged with (i.e. there was nothing sexual assault related about them) and his other offence was drink driving. Dusty's thing was stupid, but he was cleared of making any...

Will be a grubby move if they pick him up. Stengle isn't remotely a template - been plenty of players dumb enough to pick up a drink driving charge. Multiple threats of violence and revenge pr0n against women are slightly less common.

On the 2050 plan - definitely not. Running the footy department as his own fiefdom towards the end due to it being stacked with his people - very much so.

Yes. If the AFL allows a contract to be registered for him it will be a disgrace - he was given multiple chances, as well as education and rehabilitation programs via his club and continued to make threats towards women. He can get his second chance in life via the workforce at large but he...

Bloody great news with Chad too - crushing the recovery on this one.

I do love members who think they should be the first contacted regarding every function of the club. CJ's injury being declared on Friday or Monday does what exactly to your support of the club?

Absolutely wrapped to have Ginnivan - he might just be going to another level naturally but it's as if playing for his childhood club was something he always wanted (moreso than a lot of players who just get into it at their new club) and now that he's here he is going to bust his arse for the...

Being constantly fu*ked by your football team doesn’t count as losing your virginity - no matter how hard they keep doing it.

You just know that avatar isn't far from real life - save more of a neckbeard with chip crumbs in it.

Worse than a dance cam and sprinting versus the LEDs? Only fan engagement I ever enjoyed was at a NY Rangers game where you had to hit the puck in from halfway and the hype guy was trying to get the crowd behind both fans - but because one of them was a very attractive woman the crowd turned...

They are continually profitable and have been debt free for a couple of years. It's a pathetic club but they're not really on dire straits. Their financials wouldn't likely be as rosy if they had to give an early pay-out to a coach on $2M a season though.

Internally or externally? Norf would be financially crippled if they sacked him prior to the last year of his contract.

No thanks. Plenty of time to talk about that in early-mid 2025 depending on results and progress.

Judging by social media comments he is becoming a bit of a cult hero too - we've been lacking one for a while.

Well that's a different argument - expecting consistency out of umpiring or the AFL is like leaving the porch light on for Harold Holt.

I looked at the footage a fair few times - and look it is hard with the grainy stuff but for mine if you look at Larkey he is eyes on the ball the entire time. He might know Finn is coming for it also - they time their jumps differently so Finn is coming down a bit when Larkey is on the rise...

If Norf don't do much over the next 3.5 years I don't know why the Devils would want him.

Then we just make the game AFL 9s then. You can't dictate that players can't go up for a marking contest because there might be contact with an opponents head. Every bomb into the forward 50 could end in an errant elbow taking someone out accidentally, you simply can't take out every single...

Umpires should be professionals. Sure, it will never eradicate errors because humans make them no matter what. But they should be training all week like the players - reviewing film with the top brass/umpiring bosses to show errors, reviewing the rules as a group and ensuring there is...

There's no wrong place to rant about that shithole of a stadium. It's a soulless shell in the most depressingly bleak part of the city. Docklands is a blight on the Melbourne landscape and Marvel Stadium is a fitting centrepiece. It has no personality, no charm, no atmosphere - when the MCG...

I couldn't hate the Shinbeggars any more than I presently do - but Larkey has eyes for the footy the entire time. Yes contact with the head is made but it's a contact sport, Finn is also on the descent as he jumped first and Larkey is on the ascent at the time hence the contact being made with...

Only when Toby Greene retires. Love that angry little campaigner.

Mackenzie’s glimpses of his best are absolutely a delight. I think he shows more at this stage of his career than Day did, so if he follows a similar trajectory when he gets to game 50 he’ll be bloody terrific to watch.

While it helps that Norf were deplorable and would probably get beat by a handful of VFL sides at times - bottle that second quarter and add some polish and it would be very enjoyable watching that on a weekly basis.

Still to watch the second half as we went out for dinner - but based on the end stats and his first half form, I’m glad Morrison made all those who have him as whipping boy status a nice serving of humble pie with a side helping of a bag of dicks.

They look okay, after DECADES of looking anything but. Harley Reid might be as good as he’s touted - it doesn’t guarantee he’ll win a flag.
