Opinion 2018 Non-Crows Discussion Thread

[Pea Nut]

Gerard's impartial nature disappears when he is fapping over his beloved Geelong, especially Duckwood and ******field. Quite sickening.

Cringeworthy when he speaks to Scott on AFL 360 each week.

I was gonna post exactly the same thing. Whateley is far from impartial. He is very articulate which at times may seem like impartiality, but he is one of the biggest Geelong fan boys going round.

Happy New Year peeps! Let's keep it clean and civil...except on Game Day, where we talk hell-worthy to umps, players, coaches and all!

Here's a puzzler, what's the opposite of a "whipping boy"?

This is why I usually don't like the random discussion threads. I can't keep up and end up being confused damnit!

He was king hit, reckon it was Wundke who got him ??

Adam Grocke.

Supposedly left him unconscious for 7 minutes.

That's right i knew it was one of their big dumb forwards

Can anyone tell me if triple m is having an Adelaide Drive show with Louie and Jars this is year?
I have been listening today triple m and they keep talking about Mick Molloy and Jane being in Drive...

If so is this another free hit for 5aa? No competition?

You'd think it's going to be a difficult enough action anyway. Even if you can argue the AFL breached a duty of care, there's still going to be doubt about what the root cause of any issues being experienced is. Even if isolated to football concussions, how many were from junior footy, diagnosed or not and then post AFL. He's been knocked out for 7 minutes, I'd say his only hope is tacking on to the class action. He'd be stuffed otherwise.

It seems Lewis and Jarman will be back. I think Molloy and DGen Jane are replacing Bill and Bray

There is/was a good discussion on the main board about this. Some of it descended into '' how would you be able to tell if John Barnes was affected or not'' type comments but mostly some good things there.

I think the outcome for most past players will be ongoing support and payment of medical costs on any connection to concussion symptoms.

There will be future safeguarding by the AFL but ultimately the class action will fail for any monetary gain. There will be different set-ups in the future , but there will not be any $1m payouts imo

I wondet if SEN will have another crack at the SA market anytime soon.

Go Crows.

I think Jars and Louie will be moved to the 3-5 slot with Molloy and Jane having the 5-7 slot

 

[LC40]

Who's the ex Crows and Power player that's joining the concussion action against the clubs/AFL. Can think of Bode and Symes, can't think of any others off the top of my head.

Ian Downsborough and David Brown played for both.

Jars and Louie are so bad it’s ridiculous. Anything is an upgrade.

Hope he’s taking legal action.

He was but I'm not sure what has come of it

MELB radio personalities change every 10 min ......ADEL changes personalities when they retire ......and you thought being dropped from the Australian Test Team was the biggest "Golden Ticket"

KG was retired from 5AA... then is resurrected by MMM.

Studley retires, then unfortunately comes back along with his son.

Did I hear that Tony Pilkington is back on radio at the moment? Kind of backs up WW's point about golden tickets etc!

I dont think its permanent, thankfully - just filling in the xmas/new years break for Penbo and Goodings.

Its basically lots of Behind Closed Doors replays, and semi-senile ramblings from Pilko.

You would think they could find some young fresh wannabe to do it for 2 weeks....

Old Tony Pilkington. Well way back he had a partner on radio Barry Ion. They were called Baz and Pilko. Barry had a character called Peter Plus. It was hilarious.
They would ring people at random, even called Buckingham Palace one morning and had their audiences in stitches.

Pilko's mellowed a bit since the old days

Agreed but still a free hit for those wanting sport.

Every now and then they mention sport...that doesn't relate to themselves
