[Gysberts2Bate]

At least someone with a Melbourne connection has something to celebrate this weekend ... Ben Newton slots one for Subiaco to contribute to their absolute route of West Perth.

What the **** is a Ben Newton

What the **** is a Ben Newton

The bloke we picked up from Port a handful of years ago. Cost us a late second or early third round pick, from memory? Played a good JLT cup game, if I recall.

What the **** is a Ben Newton

The veritable Enigma wrapped in a mystery.

Apologies for the intrusion folks but do you think with Hunt not being able to get a game with the emergence of Fritsch and Spargo etc you guys would trade him on?

I know he is signed on till 2020 but he has some currency right now off the back of strong 2016/17 AFL seasons. I don't know what has happened this season regarding not being able to get a game but i really like the kid and would love him at Carlton for the right price if he was to be moved on for whatever reason.

I don't rate him but probably worth more to us to keep since we seriously lack players with pace. His ball handling and disposal skills are really bad, and he isn't a very smart footballer.

Should make ANB his idol and role model, then. Exactly the same deficiencies and slower to boot.

Cheers mate and opinions seem to be divided regarding the Demon folk.

I like him and his 2016/17 form was great but seems to have fallen out of favor for whatever reasons. You guys have him contacted though till the end of 2020 so you saw something in him.

He has trade currency right now if you guys go down that track and the more you deny him games the lower this gets and it is the current AFL landscape these days no team is immune from.

I would happily have him in Navy Blue for the right price.

The third member of the holy trinity

Or possibly the old bloke with a toupe who’s son likes belting people in LA

Can’t be sure

 

[Topkent]

So umpires were pretty good in this game orrrrrrr

Legitimately the worst I’ve seen in a long time.

With Viv Michie & Aidan Riley?

 

[Darkyprotector]

Casey have genuinely been crucified by the umpires this is the worst officiating I’ve seen for a long time

Surely it's time for someone to stand up as it's been obvious for years

Getting sick of hawthorn getting the rub of the green. , reminds me of there first ever flag umpired by SCHWAB

2 Vfl flags. LOL

We got screwed in vflw prelim
You Vfl g/f

Enoughs enough

 

[Darkyprotector]

To think those bastards would have been out if not for those 2 seconds longer in the Port game. Wow, that is luck for ya.

Yeah can't believe their luck

Again

 

[PerfectFooty]

I only really saw a bit of the 3rd and the last quarter, so the umps must have sucked for the first two and a half quarters because i didn't notice them so much late

I think there were 16 frees to 2 in the second alone.

 

[dylan93]

First quarter we were good, but then it just fell to shite. Supposedly no King because he's had his exit interview.

2018 VFL stats

Interesting to see if Gold Coast nominate Corey Wagner under the new state league concession rule. He is from Qld.

Fingers crossed they don't and we grab him as a rookie. One of the only players who played his guts out every game for Casey.

I'm hoping so too! Watched a handful of Casey games and he was the standout.

Do you do stats for any other teams mate? I’m interested in Richmond’s VFL data

I presume the player has to accept the nomination?

 

[LeverPuller]

I would suspect if the player nominated for the draft and then refuses to go they will be forced to sit out for two years due to draft tampering.

I would say there's almost zero chance of that, given the academies/father son rules also allow players to go into the open draft as per normal if they wish.
