Reminds me of when John McCarthy passed away in 2012. I think that was the week we played Sydney in the preliminary final and got knocked out.No surprise Freo looked flat last night. Quite a few of them were very emotional before the game during the remembering of Cam McCarthy. On top of what would’ve been a very emotional day.....

I think these are great suggestions. I haven’t been able to clarify how they handle it in Rugby League as yet.Agree. Surely there’s two things at play here. Some possible suggestions.
1 a player refusing medical attention on field must be against the rules if it’s not already.
2 club doctors perhaps need to have the right to stop the game, perhaps by informing the interchange officials who can then pull the whistle out and call to the umpires.
I wonder who’s onus it would be (doctor/club/player) for refusing to come off. Aka Jezza. Probably would be 100% Doctor/Club. But should be margin to say player took his own risk when instructed to come off (assuming he was). Sort of like a waiver. What do you think?I think these are great suggestions.

Just speaking to an ex league player and he said the doctor can contact the bunker and they can then contact the referee immediately as they would with a score review.
AFL probably need to clarify the on field protocols. Players will risk continuing especially late in a tight game.
It has to be clear cut for mine so 100% doctor and the game should be stopped.I wonder who’s onus it would be (doctor/club/player) for refusing to come off. Aka Jezza.

There is bound to be controversy no matter what is put in place and unfortunately there will even be those who would stoop to manipulating it to advantage e.g. feigning head contact to stop the game.I wonder who’s onus it would be (doctor/club/player) for refusing to come off.

Weekly reminder that we lost to the Saints.
They arguably played their best game of the year so far that day against us. Unfortunately a few sides save their best for usWeekly reminder that we lost to the Saints.

just a pointless clubSaints lose.
Teams must have “worked out” how to beat them.
Just remember Pendles and Sidebottom have won more flags than the entire club has in their historyjust a pointless club

The St Blunda gift that keeps on keeping on.I’m not joking, they were a better side under Ratten.
Lyon is the most overrated coach in the modern era.
