    News Clubs operating league-sanctioned drug testing program - Harley Balic’s Dad Speaks

    Couldn't disagree with you more. You're arguing semantics. The real reason it's done is to avoid being tested otherwise it wouldn't happen. The AFL are only concerned about their image. If it's designed to help players with their drug problem, then it isn't working, as the number of players have...

    News Clubs operating league-sanctioned drug testing program - Harley Balic’s Dad Speaks

    And if they didn't do pre testing they wouldn't know. They would play, maybe be tested and found out. Just a way of avoiding doing a drug test. That seems to be the only reason for it, otherwise it wouldn't be covered up calling, it an injury preventing play.

    News Clubs operating league-sanctioned drug testing program - Harley Balic’s Dad Speaks

    They are using it to avoid a drug test. It's a bit of a loophole at the moment, just like using a masking agent once was. Just about guaranteed that WADA will close it. Pre testing to avoid a drug test will be prohibited. The East Germans used similar methods to hide the drug use of their...

    News Clubs operating league-sanctioned drug testing program - Harley Balic’s Dad Speaks

    Try using that argument to a policeman when you get arrested. Of course it is against the law to use, possess, cultivate or traffic a drug of dependence, including marijuana, heroin, amphetamines, cocaine, LSD and ecstasy. Look up the Commonwealth laws. As far as the argument, "what people do...

    News Clubs operating league-sanctioned drug testing program - Harley Balic’s Dad Speaks

    Isn't whole point of what the AFL are sanctioning, is to dodge drug tests? While most people suspect cocaine, there are a lot of other drugs prohibited on game day, cannabis is one and lots of things found in cough mixtures. You can see random testing coming in and conducted by WADA, not the...

    All-time Big Nose best 22

    Looks like there are certain advantages to a big schnoz. It's not shoe size girls! I just can't help but think of Jimmy Durante. https://www.news.com.au/lifestyle/health/doctor-confirms-age-old-rumour-about-penis-size/news-story/fecc00f4ddc9715bb5d166a844c3ee1e It's true Mofra and it explains a lot!

    Who gets Clarkson? - Now with poll

    Some people are happily married. You obviously aren't.

    Who gets Clarkson? - Now with poll

    2014. He might like a bit of a rest once he finishes coaching. He would get $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ from the media and not have to put in the long hours anymore. His wife would probably like that.

    Who gets Clarkson? - Now with poll

    I genuinely think he will stay to give Mitchell another year in charge at Box Hill. When he speaks of a moral obligation you can believe him. He apparently knocked back a very large figure to coach North because he already had a contract and wanted to fulfill his obligations to Hawthorn. I'm...

    Who gets Clarkson? - Now with poll

    He isn't the type of YES man the AFL always require.

    Who gets Clarkson? - Now with poll

    I wouldn't imagine that he will be Collingwood due to his fractured relationship with Wrighty.

    All-time Big Nose best 22

    Now I know his nose doesn't appear all that big but surely some consideration should be given to just how much stuff can fit up a nose. Ben Cousins.

    Is Damien Hardwick the greatest coach of all time?

    As I said, it's a debatable point, but no point complaining to me, argue it with the AFL and get them to correct their records.

    Is Damien Hardwick the greatest coach of all time?

    Essendon and GWS, who is the third team he coached? All flags were won with Essendon.

    Is Damien Hardwick the greatest coach of all time?

    Are you fifteen? I'd suggest that you check your own team's ladder positions from 1947 to see how they were travelling before 1966 to get an idea on Hafey's impact. You could only say the argument is void if you have no idea of the history of the game.

    Is Damien Hardwick the greatest coach of all time?

    Yeah, that is a debatable point, however, in 2014 the AFL's historians decided that even though he missed the 1930 premiership due to illness, as he coached every other game that season he was credited with the win.

    Is Damien Hardwick the greatest coach of all time?

    You need to do some research before making a statement like that. No doubt a very good coach, but he is is well down the list. Jock McHale 8 Norm Smith 6 - took over after Melbourne finished last and won 6 flags. Melbourne haven't recovered since they sacked him. Jack Worrall 5 Checker...

    Hawks breached salary cap in premiership years

    Don Scott's comment has the trademark of the Sam Newman approach to getting into the news as publicity for their podcast Not what he said in April. Have a listen to what Williams said in the link below. He covers it somewhere between the 6 to 10 min mark...

    Hawks breached salary cap in premiership years

    Williams has said he was offered 3 or 4 times what he was being paid at Geelong. He was willing to stay at Geelong if they had offered half the $150K the Swans had on offer. He instantly became the highest paid player in the VFL when he moved to Sydney.

    Hawks breached salary cap in premiership years

    Why would that be? Carlton, Hawthorn and Collingwood all took the amnesty offered in 1994. Essendon stupidly didn't and paid the price. Carlton's breach was in 2002 well after the amnesty was offered. It isn't new news.

    Best CHF All Time

    Darrel Baldock was only 179cm that didn't stop him from becoming, along with Hart the best CHF of the 60's. The other player ignored so far (also a st Kilda player) is Stuart Lowe. By far the best pack mark I have ever seen. Would be an ideal player in this era for that ability. Carey, Hart and...

    One interesting stat to come out of this, is that with the lock down in the USA, last March was the first time in for 18 years that there hadn't been a school shooting in that month.

    Who really knows how it happened. Poor old Vic Rail the horse trainer died from Hendra Virus. Hendra virus’s host is the flying fox. Apparently his horses (who all died) became infected probably by sniffing or eating vegetation contaminated with flying fox droppings. Vic then caught it from his...
