gets a great ride from the umps. Naughton doesn’t get those.

Initiate contact. Win Coleman*.

Richo's initial reaction of "...oh" was the correct one. Before he remembered who he worked for and toed the corporate line about "Umpires being red hot on that."

What. A. Farce.



*errrr....gifted Coleman.

Good questions Fossie. Can’t answer them all now but in society generally, treating drug use as a criminal issue has never worked. All it does is clog up the justice system and create and alienate more criminals.

But the AFL doesn’t administer criminal justice. For them it is, or ought to be, getting a reasonable balance of administering a fair competition, looking after player welfare and adhering to national and international agreements on drugs in sport.

The causes of drug taking aren’t medical but some of the impacts are. So at least in part it should be a medical issue. But there are extensive legal, industrial and ethical issues to manage as well.

They would need a thread of their own to discuss fully.

I've worked closely for nearly 30 years and agree the war on drugs has failed and it needs to be looked at as a medical issue.

But I think it's taking the proverbial for the AFL to go rogue and use 'it's a medical issue' as an all encompassing defence to allow players to skirt around wada rules.

They really are a crooked bunch at Docklands.

Yes, mate.

North young guns will be elite. Great to watch, just unable to sustain it.

Just checked the reaction on the North board to Coleman-Jones' injury. Quite a lot of them actually celebrating it. Wtf.

 

[Hobdog]

Maybe one day North will show some of their famed ‘shinboner’ spirit (whatever the f**k that means) on Good Friday. Get flogged every year and the AFL takes the game off us

So if you headbutt your opponent in the stomach who is standing still, it’s a head-high tackle? Ok.

Really dangerous thing to do.

No way should the AFL be encouraging players to duck into tackles.

They have some elite young mids, but aside from Larkey. Their talls especially in defence are pretty, pretty, pretty...average.

 

[MJG14]

Carlton getting the rub of the green in this fixture for the second consecutive year. Must have slipped some brown envelopes under the umpires room.

Three things are certain in life. Death, taxes, and North getting nailed on Good Friday.

Blues talls having a field day. This is what happens when you ignore KPP players and keep drafting MIDS.

Surely they have to lose the privilege one year, everyone beats them.

If the game isn't sold out, the AFL will probably drop the Blues next year, blaming them for North fans being in the minority like they were when they played us.

Actually, they will probably give North the wooden spooners as their opponent next year, to help them lose by one goal instead of 10, along with two first round picks for Good Friday hardship.

So playing themselves then?

Larkey might be waiting for the umps in the car park.

 

[glenashley]

North continuing to keep up the good Friday spirit by once again getting crucified in the 'marquee' game.

 

[CarnTheScray]

Carlton looked average and North somehow looked that bad.

We will make both look a level above their usual.

I wonder if Norf fans are taking advantage of this opportunity to be victims.

 

[Libbaaaa]

North are a pathetic club. Going nowhere even with this elite young talent.

I reckon half their team are round 1 picks.

Problem is, that if they do get good they're just gonna run into massive salary cap issues and have to turnover half the list for high draft picks.

Gonna be early GWS all over.
Just a revolving door.
