Those mental heath demons must have got to the point where playing a high pressure sport isn't viable.
The AFL rules committee just do s**t to justify their jobs.AFL to increase quarter length with 18-minute periods possible for 2021
The AFL’s experiment with 16-minute quarters is over as the competition prepares to again increase game time next yearwww.theguardian.com
So you cut the interchange numbers from 90 to 75 (I assume to increase player fatigue and therefore increase scoring) and to then you decrease the qtr length from 20 to 18 minutes to decrease the impact of the interchange numbers alteration.
Why bother!!!
Its really disappointing he couldn't finish his career with us. There's always going to be the stigma of him bailing on us even despite the situation being likely for the best.
no that would be the worst possible outcome ....

Matthew Parker
He is electric at his best, even if some of those performances are few and far between. He has shown he is more than capable at senior level and adds a stack of pace and pressure to any side’s line-up and did so for St Kilda in 2019 before the rapid improvement of the Saints in 2020 saw Parker take a back seat. He’s a Western Australian, so if the Dockers are looking for a Brandon Matera replacement after delisting him, Parker is a much more suitable age to their demographic and could be a good backup option to have in the wings if needed.
Loved watching Matty play and had a great first up season given where he'd come from so hopefully he does get picked up by some team - back home at Freo would be a perfect result.
It's a bit strange that he was talking about wanting to become a CEO a month ago and now he's a senior coach.
Yep, that's what I have said. He also said no to coaching pies 2nd team a few years. If he wants to be senior coach that much he needs to coach his own team.
I’d say Lynch from Richmond mate but chances are they’d still make a push for another flag tilt and that smug son of a b will coast to another premiership so I’d rather he have to play and work for it
Funny, being that Members is a hunter and fisher, I'd have pegged his wedding more for a country setting. This is a very urban look, he looks like a nightclub owner in that black on black number. Maybe his hobbies actually indicate that he wants to kill all nature, starting with the fish and animals.Congratulations to Tim Membrey and his wife on their wedding .

“As a past teammate and person I loved being involved with, Adam — as he is a really nice fella. BUT unfortunately he has got this VERY wrong,”
Being an active member of the past players group, there have been many, many occasions, where the past players committee have reached out, I know this is a fact!!!
The past players group stay in touch via a monthly newsletter letter that Adam does receive. We have our own amazing room at Marvel Stadium with premium seating for all home games, plus at least 3-4 past players functions per season. Adam gets invited to all of these."
Pretty sad for Adam Cooney. How's West though, defending his past player outreach because of a newsletter? A newsletter? Excuuuuuuuse me? A Newsletter??
I get newsletters from all manner of assocs. From our insurer. From my work union. Straight in the bin unopened. I just am not interested. I get that the intention is pure, but they are a step down in communication from the birthday card you get from your bank, another totally futile and naive gesture dreamed up by some fool in marketing.
Some genius thought that this form of communication equals "staying in touch with someone" - let me illuminate anyone whose job it is to communicate to their members; your newsletters mean nothing to us. They may occasionally contain interesting information, but they are not outreach. Members view them more closely to publicity.
If this and providing a luxury box to watch the footy from is Scott West's idea of reaching out to a human, he needs to wake up. I hope the St Kilda Outreach officer or whatever they are called isn't so lazy with their job.
Human connection is so valuable. There are no shortcuts. Only the most desperate and lonely would accept this as any kind of valuable connection. Take the time and do it properly.

I don't disagree that the club left Robbie and potentially other ex-Saints players high and dry.
