The whole sub idea is stupid It’ll be canned again in the next few years - it’s unnecessary I get it for a concussion, and that was the original intent. But not for any other injury. If a player has some tightness in a muscle, they can go and stand in the forward line, or players can play with some...

Ross is a very intelligent man and his analytic approach to the process smacks of professionalism.. His determination for a flag is summed up nicely at the end of the interview. I personally am confident we have the right man , some on here bag me for it , blind faith etc, that's ok i've seen many ...

Couldn't comprehend Boner had over 1000 meters gained against Bombers, don't think I've seen that before. Surely he couldn't possibly kick it back to the opposition 17 times ever again. Not sure Schoemaker replaces Boner, but he could replace Cordy, who I reckon is an ordinary footballer. Pity we'v...

So - Parish pushing Windy had no bearing on his attack on the football None at all. Windy still had plenty of time to take another course of action. Are we gun shy because we lost the King decision? Wouldn't think so, but we do lose $10k every time we challenge and fail. This is bulltish - and I ho...

You can all sook it up as much as you like, but I bet London to a brick that if Durham got Windy in the same way, you'd all be OK with the one game suspension.
Totally avoidable act by Windy.

Windhager isn’t trying to hit him though. He’s trying to avoid him .

Which is why it is graded as careless and not intentional.

Fair enough. Can't really argue this one. Hand in your membership You can gleefully pull your head in...There is no way that we'll challenge this. If someone with better video capture skills than me, freeze the vision at around 3 seconds and post the image? Durham clearly has his head over the foot...

That is just factually incorrect.

CURLY wrote: ↑Sun 31 Mar 2024 5:53pm Tackle???

Durham dived head first low into on coming traffic. Windhager turns to avoid his legs being taken out.

Come on, Curly. That's just plain wrong. Durham did not dive at all. Only went to ground, post contact.
Anyway...You do you and keep on farting at thunder!

You can’t be serious

Isn't it tiring playing the victim every week?

Windhager rubbed out. f*** you AFL That one was worse than King's one last week as the potential to cause damage was there. Really, really silly act by Windy. Durham has his head over the ball and Windy just chose to bump. He tried to avoid ffs or his legs would have been taken out. Dangerous by Du...

Terrible. Not accountable at all at the moment.

As soon as Hayes is match fit, he comes in. Need someone to help out Marshall.

9-1 centre clearances against in the second half. Needs something Someone not something LIam Henry, Brad Crouch, Mason Wood, Paddy Dow, Hunter Clark Add just one and St Kilda defeats Essendon. Just add all 5 and Max King, Dougal Howard (better than Zaine Cordy) & Jack Hayes (ahead of Cooper Sha...

Truly strange to enter into the conversation with that!

We're lucky at the Saints to have (a) a great home guernsey; (b) a great away guernsey; and (c) great alternative away guernseys (though I much prefer the candy stripes to the crusader cross and the German flag). It's the Belgian flag, not the German flag. https://i.redd.it/iz2jsmcpnlk31.png Althou...

In fact, I'd doubt it's anywhere close to every sport.

Who cares about the drug culture. It's rampant through all sports. Which sports? Which levels? Makes sense that it would be limited to full-time sports where the athletes are younger, are well paid, and have high disposable incomes. Limits it to mostly AFL/NRL doesn't it?

It is obvious that the AFL is clamping down on any contact to the head in order to prevent players being concussed. That's clearly not the case. There were multiple instances in the first 2 and-a-half rounds where head high contact hasn't been punished. What they are cracking down on is a bump that...
