Exacatagly. It's been happening for 100 years and the game has gone downhill fast since day one. As I said to ya today SW, the sooner the AFL Commission is dissolved in a double resolution the better, and give the power back to the people where it belongs in the first place.
I'm trying to organise a beat-box rally (S&M (M&M's understudy) will be there) on August 1st at Arden St to get a partition signed by all in Sunbury - 1000 signatures is all we need to then take the matter before a Magistrate, and then, and only then, will the AFL's ears be prickled.

And lol now we are even weaker through the midfield. We will get outrun badly.
In all seriousness, I think Goldy would (and should) have more of a tank than Jy, and the swap probably adds spread to our team.

Goldy is an elite runner (for a ruckman) whereas Jy is coming off a broken leg and zero preseasons.

But don't let me stop the chicken little dialogue. All games are lost at the selection table *eyeroll*

I would have thought you could get your 1023 mates to sign the partition at half time at our next game in Melbourne on Good Friday. Why wait until August the 1st? Personally I can't wait to see the AFL's ears "prickled".

Might have a bigger tank but jys got more agility in a single toe than goldy has.

IIf jy is dropped becase of this corkey and then deemed fit enough to play vfl i will be sick in my mouth.

He was always going to be rested after a few games. 18 year old kid coming off a broken leg and limited pre-season. A massive corky is just a good excuse to rest him and freshen him up for prime time Good Friday where he'll light up Etihad on the big stage.
