Review Rd 12 vs Hawthorn: Post-game review

🥰 Love BigFooty? Join now for free.

Hey everyone. Been reading the forum for a few days now and thought I would join in!! Have read over a few of the threads as well!!

Quick question, Has anyone heard any news on Acorn and his shoulder? I have seen a few people touch on it and not really seen a reply and nothing on the website so wanted to see other peoples thoughts...

In the dying minutes when he crunched down hard he seemed to look like dislocating his shoulder. My Fiance and I were at the game and watched him the whole time after it as he got up but looked like he was unable to lift his arm and it was hanging limp down beside him. When he was walked off by the trainers he still couldn't lift it, it was dangling down beside him like a break or dislocation.

He managed to get up and stand the mark and run for a bit but you could see something clearly wrong so not sure of what is going on there. And if it was a dislocate\break he is one tough SOB as others seem to stay down in those circumstances...

The website hasn't listed anything (Shame about Retz too!!! :( ) so be interesting to see if he is listed in the squad this weekend or not!!! I am a massive fan of Acorn and think he will be a key forward for us so hoping he sticks around and this isn't too serious!

Anyway my 2c :)

Huddo has been a saviour with the injuries and still raw Longer, Zorko an inspiration and our youngins (Polec, Green, etc etc) all coming along nicely. Looking forward to the next few years and the light that has finally coming at the end of the tunnel :) Maguire for AA this year pls lol ;)

Welcome to our little part of the world mate :)

In answer to your question I haven't heard anything re: Ace, not sure if anyone has.
 
Thanks Jorgo, Yeah have been keeping an eye on it and nothing has come up.....

Wasn't on the club injury list released yesterday... but given that list is as trustworthy as a used car salesman with an overdue mortgage repayment I wouldn't bank any assumptions on that.

I might be reading too much into this but is that Banfield on the ground training with the main group?

I thought it looked like 40 on his back but he doesn't look tall enough to be Niall.
 
I wish they would show it in the USA a little more. That way we could all understand it a little more.

Also, about me, cnnsi-$%#!, Big Soccer-ECUNCHATER, and Big Hoops-wolfhawkblue. So now you know who I am.

I agree it looks like Wrigs. Retz to LTI & Wrigs elevation if McGrath doesn't get up?

Or too early for those conspiracy theories? :p

Darren, I am not 100% clear on the scoring.

1) If the ball passes between the goalposts and touches a defender on the way, is this a goal or a behind?

2) Ditto for the ball touching a goalpost

3) Does a team get any points if the ball strikes a goalpost and bounces back into the field? (If they do, how soon will Carney sign up for an AFL club?

)

4) What happens if a player kicks the ball across his own line between the goalposts, or between a goalpost and a behind? If he carries it across the line?

5) From your post I gathered that if a player carries or punches the ball between the opposition's goalposts he scores a behind. Is this true?

Thanks in advance.

Yep, would love to see Wrigley have a crack. Though I'm torn between him and Doc coming in if there's an available spot. ;)

Nicky G and Jorgo - I'm guessing you guys didn't actually reply to the posts that are quoted within your posts? Something funny going on?

Can you guys confirm which post you were trying to quote? (just the number by the reply button will be fine)
 
That is very wierd looking - can you get a forum virus or are we out of sync somehow - or maybe I am just missing the punchline!

I suspect it'll be a migration-related database glitch. The posts quoted are from 1999.
