I fully respect Joe's tough decision. In his shoes I would have played given its a cut throat final, but can totally understand why he is putting his family first and should be respected for that.

Iirc Bradshaw missed a final against us years ago for similar reasons.

Publicly the club would be in full support, privately not so much…

When I told my wife he was missing as his Mrs is due to have a baby, ‘it’s a baby not open heart surgery, it’s not like he can take a couple of days off and turn up at work on Monday. You know there is such a thing as inducement? I would have had this all planned months ago.’

My reply, ‘but he will never get see the birth of his child again.’

Wife: ‘Yeah, well he and his wife better hope they win and the baby comes this weekend or it will always be brought up in conversations.’

Wife after a couple of minutes: ‘if that was us you would be playing and winning because that’s what I signed up for when I married you as an AFL footballer Plan these things, geez…’

*wife is an educated professional who has had children and usually accepts this stuff as ‘footballers are not the sharpest tools in the shed’, so I was surprised and thought I would open the debate…!

My thoughts, Joey knows they are going to get pumped so why bother!

I give brissy 100 per cent chance

The Bears chances just improved markedly

 

[Accidental genius]

Can’t see how lions win this....as a matter of fact I can see it getting ugly for the brizvegas boys

 

[Stig O'Hara]

Is Petracca fair dinkum playing with a fractured leg??

 

[agro]

No black armbands.

 

[Jabba73]

What chance the Dees play stacks on whenever Zorko goes near the ball?

Kicked the winning goal last week & eliminated the Ferals

 

[JustaBattler]

A Melbourne/Collingwood loss - straight setting two out of the top 4 - now that would be a great weekend's work.

 

[Mondyboy]

Delta slumming it at the AFL.

C’mon Brions. Little hope but, what a story!

 

[Jabba73]

NB takes a mark directly in front, 30 out and gets told to have a shot.

Kicks it deep into the pocket. Nervous

 

[BigBreakfast]

Does ANB get a score assist for shirking responsibility for a harder shot for a teammate who, luckily, was good enough?

 

[Jabba73]

Rich versus Petracca, couple of meatballs fighting over space in the bowl.

 

[BigBreakfast]

If May got 10 coaches votes last week, how many will he get against the Kmart version?

 

[Jabba73]

Kmart Buddy goes bang … off the shin

 

[Jabba73]

Charlie off hurt.

Wrap em up Numb3rs

 

[BigBreakfast]

Cameron down! Brions no chance!
