This succession plan talk was totally poo-hoo'ed by Richo in the interview. Totally "external" talk, according to him, and that Carr would be considered along with other candidates when the time comes to replace Stinkley.
I actually believe him ... The media invents crap, and Caro, as much as I...
Jeremy know he would cop a hit for what he said. I am pretty sure that his saying he was 'p!ssed off at the 3 week suspension' was in reference to the double standards of Clarkson getting let off lightly after his homophobic rant.
The PA has already called out the AFL over this! There was just...
True! Ridiculous defence, and a farcical outcome! But ... no way in hell was that medium contact! Lever is an absolute tosser, and deliberately pushes his head into the ground during the tackle, and then looks up at the umpire for the freekick! Players are admitting they do it, and he def does...
He didnt get reported. Just looked at in match review process, and then dismissed with no case to answer.
He has been put on trial by the Vic media though, but then these Victorians media idiots are all flogs!
Devil's advocate: Dixon is still a very capable AFL forward who commands the best opposition defender (or two) on him each week. If they ignore him, he will quite easily win a match off his boot. Yes he is cooked, but even still he is a dangerous opponent.
The real issue remains, that for the...
Was he actually pinged for a dangerous tackle? At the time I thought that as he started to tackle the Freo player, the guy handballed the ball forward, and Lachie then slung him around, and so he was pinged for the lingering tackle.
Dont know if anyone else noticed, but in both of Dixons mark/goals, Georgiades' hands were directly behind Dixon's ... In the first one it is Georgie's mark, until Dixon slides in front to take it. Easily would have slotted another two if they werent competing with one another in marking...
That is pure nonsense mate. Soldo's ruckwork was outstanding! Of course he is not going to match the mobility of guys like Jackson, Gawn, et-al, who are the best in the game, but some of his taps were just sublime. The fault lay squarely with our mids, who were constantly out-positioned by...
Chill ... its just a few peeps who use that skewed stat to justify their point of view. By far the majority of us are happy to have him, have looked beyond the "reverse-Coleman nonsense, and see and like what he has to offer. We are just disappointed to lose Duursma who was much loved.
The funny thing is, in 40 years time the next entitled generation will be lambasting all you young millennial/Gen Y punks for whatever crap you have perpetrated on the world! It's a cycle the will continue for as long as humanity exists in its current form.
He looks slimmer & much fitter than last year - remembering he had quite a long enforced layoff from footy. We always knew he had the freaky skills, but what I really liked about his game on the weekend was that he was involved and super dangerous for all four quarters.
Its also really nice to...
What a sh!t thread this has become. Full of high and mighty, opinionated, crap, from both extremes!
The guy swore at someone, and in the heat of the moment, used a word that is no longer acceptable. He should have used a word that is more acceptable word in society, like "you mother-fu...r."...
I thought he was brilliant! Going up against 2 established rucks - albeit they had to let Goldie out of the old-folks home for the day!
He had:
20 h/outs to their combined 34
5 clearances to their combined 1
3 cent/clearances to their combined 0
8 contested possessions to their combined 4
2...
Confession ... Many years ago (I am talking around 1980), I was playing in a weekend social match and got angry at one of the players & blew my top, calling him a "beep beep beep" (homophobic slur). This was still back in the day when "political correctness" was a term you used to guess the...
That is the issue IMO ... It frustrated the crap out of me to see our forwards constantly bunched up together and competing with Melbun's defenders! Every time Marshall and Dixon separated and led, they clunked marks, and looked dangerous ... Even one-handed Dixon was nailing his marks for once!
Interesting! Our defensive structure def vastly improved ... And will only get better as they work together more. Zerk is a big part of that. Besides him being my man, I am stoked to have him. Still young, and has heaps of growth left .
