100%!!! Not much productivity going to be taking place.

work?

It's only a relatively new concept.

Apologies for the intrusion- Could someone please let me know what happened in the end with Weitering and his ‘head knock’?

The commentators were going ad-nauseam about how Carlton had to take him off because he was ‘staggering’ around. I think Garry Lyon got especially excited about it.

Suddenly, it’s faded away, which is good. Clearly nothing wrong with him from the way he played after that. Only Jonathon Brown was saying it’s just a glancing blow and that happens on the field often with no injury.

SEN did some analysis on ladder position wins in the second week of finals in the past decade:

Overall stats​

(Since 2013)

Higher ranked team wins: 12
Lower ranked team wins: 8

3rd v 7th: 3-1
4th v 5th: 1-3

Makes sense that there is little between fourth and fifth …

about his struggles during his Carlton days and how he's found his love for footy again playing with Ararat.

The lost Blue who rediscovered his love of football

When Carlton take to the Gabba in Saturday night’s preliminary final, one former Blue will be happy to be watching from home in Ararat with a premiership of his own in hand.

will be watching from the family home in Ararat with his feet up after a week working at the local prison and with a premiership of his own.

The 24-year-old, who was the Blues’ unused sub in last year’s opening-round win over Richmond, walked away from the AFL in mid-2022 to focus on his mental health, deciding, after 44 games and nearly six years in the system, that the top tier wasn’t for him.

Glad he’s goin well the young fella. Good read and good on him

THank you, that's exactly what it looked like to me. The bloodlust those commentators showed to get him subbed out and then your medical team in trouble was concerning.

Another head shaker. Geez, I was big on Tom.

Bucks had the lube out, Gary and Lewis were salty as F.

Jono Brown was like a protective dad (guess his relationship with Vossy and his daughter is a Blues supporter) and was close to giving some bifo.

All my Pies friends and acquaintances are really salty at the moment.. guess they fear we may actually make it to the granny.

You're supposed to finish your post with /s for clarity

I'd love someone to explain to me what a 'turnover' is.

Apple or Danish?

 

[SkyhorseTamer]

Daniel Hoyne's got a "goals from turnover" fetish.

And it is really fundamentally meaningless.

What days? The days where we had fev or the days where Sam Newman would be an absolute campaigner to people on the street, making fun of people less fortunate than his privileged self?

 

[Coona Blues]

I would be 100% behind this. The structure and ball movement of his side were ultra impressive. I said after the game we should look at him for an assistant role, even a senior assistant. (We were in a slump at the time)

Some people are born to coach.
