Re: VFL vs North
Surprise Sandi bombing it long into F50 and wasting dominant period. North out marked them on most occasions, the Sandi forwards are all one out none of them work to block for a team mate. Its something that we are really poor at at AFL in our F50, so shouldn't expect any difference here. Put a lin...

Re: Players who can land a set shot
I reckon he would have gotten the shots that Wilson and Hastie got. Would he have converted as many as they did? Some days he would. It's a good question. Are those goals 'team goals' that Higgins just gets on the end of and gets his name against, or are they genuinely created by Higgins? Are there...

Re: Players who can land a set shot
Tim Membrey also gets most shots that are expected to be kicked. It would be good to compare his stats. He has endured some wayward periods in his career, but also some "sharpshooter" periods. This year Members is travelling at 72% 13 from 18 - Highest goal tally and most accurate for any...

Re: Players who can land a set shot
Higgins and King are 50/50 bets even when 30m out directly in front The only players I have a lot of faith with when going for set shots are Sharman, Butler, Wood, Cordy, and Sinclair I cover my eyes when King, Owens, and Higgins are lining up This season King is 54% - 7 from 13 that scored Higgins...

Re: Match Thread: Saints vs Roos
Some good performances, but pretty uninspiring all round. Barely kicked 100 against North, only outscored them by a goal in the second half. Darcy Wilson very good. Dougal had a good first half then turned back into Dougal in the second. King is constantly in a wrestle. Maybe you are just too hard ...

Re: Third Sponsor Event - Urgent Response required from the Sponsorship Group.
As the Dullbogs game was a weird time for some I made an executive decision to leave the tix and do the Freo Game.

Re: Higgins Alir incident
There's no issue here. The AFL suspends anyone if their tackle causes a concussion. Don't they? https://www.afl.com.au/news/735442/match-review-tiger-docker-fined-ralphsmith-higgins-tackle-explained Jack Higgins has been subbed out of the game with concussion following this tackle by Hugo Ralphsmit...

Re: Higgins Alir incident
St Kilda should play a game and take tribunal decisions to their logical conclusion. Do not tackle at all. Not once. Or go the other way and concuss every Norf player in the first 15 minutes /s And - with the level of our tackle efficiency in the past couple of games - how would anyone know??? Do y...

Re: Higgins Alir incident
We argued to get it thrown out, but if not they're arguing exceptional circumstances to reduce. The issue is you only get one chance to put out an argument. You can't come back after being rejected to having it thrown out to try and reduce it. You go hard to throw it out on the grounds there isn’t ...

Re: Higgins Alir incident
Aliir 196cm powerfully built Higgins 177cm small forward To assume Aliir didn’t contribute by doing the mid air kick would be laughable. And that is the crux of it - it was a MID AIR kick - as in the ball fell loose from his shoulder so he took a wild swing at it - in an upwards projecting arc - ie...

Re: Let’s talk about cheating
Free kick counts are meaningless. You need to look at individual decisions. With the game on the line at the start of the last quarter the umpires gave three soft frees to Port which resulted in shots at goal. The first two missed: NWM holding the ball without any prior opportunity, Battle punching...
