Big Maximus Duffy over in the States selling candy.
I don't think you're allowed to pass the ball when you're ahead of the point the ball started from.I know its completely arrogant to think that you can spot holes in another game - and of course these things have all probably been tried and failed over the years. But when you watch an NFL game you can't help but think tactics from other games would work, a bit like this one. Most glaring example is passing - you often see a guy running straight into a tackle and he has a team mate wide open for a pass that any amateur rugby league player could execute 99 out of 100 times... But again there are obviously reasons for it not obvious to the casual observer.
Lateral passes downfield can and do happen but like AFL, NFL players have it hammered into them to play the percentages because there is a ****load of money involved. You don't want to be the guy that takes the risk that would almost guarantee the opposition scores the other way if you screw it up and turn it over. It may not seem obvious (to a spectator) but if you've played both, there is a lot less room to move than you have in rugby (~20m less wide) - any space you have closes in an instant.I know its completely arrogant to think that you can spot holes in another game - and of course these things have all probably been tried and failed over the years.

And you thought your Xmas period was bad...

I hope he does wellJesse
Good he is somebody else's wary...Jesse
I was going to correct that to "worry" but then I realised both words work.Good he is somebody else's wary...

When Judd won his second Brownlow it was "Carlton this, Richard Pratt that" and when asked afterward about his time at the Eagles he responded "they had nothing to do with this." Its fcuked but what else are they going to say. Past clubs will forever play a part but they are not the forefront, not until the player retires at least.No mention of the dockers.
Had to thank Ross through the questions
fu** u lachie.
Hopefully being out of that WA bubble spotlight will be good for him. If he can have an extended injury-free run it'll allow his extensive assets (elite footy smarts, athleticism, power, aerobic capacity) to shine.Jesse
If he lasts at GWS it will be because he has finally decided to pull his head in after staring his footy mortality in the face. After wanting a big multi-million dollar long term deal here it must be hard to realise you are on a one year deal for way less money than you thought you were worth at GWS.Hopefully being out of that WA bubble spotlight will be good for him.

Or he's more at peace within himself. Or that environment's more in his comfort zone. Or he gets substantial continuity from injury...If he lasts at GWS it will be because he has finally decided to pull his head in after staring his footy mortality in the face.

you're absolutely amazing, is there a sport you dont know anything about?I don't think you're allowed to pass the ball when you're ahead of the point the ball started from.
Whether they can kick it I don't know, but it's such a defensive "offensive" game because the plays can end with you giving the ball back if you make a mistake and then can't score while they do.
So a turnover by foot would be catastrophic
