The term ‘vanilla’ springs to mind
The Bull shark is right up there with the Great white as the two most dangerous sharks in the world probably followed by the Tiger. The reason is that there not only in the sea but the rivers as well, you have to watch out for. With the bite force of one of the top ten creatures in the world as well as many examples of flesh eating bacteria getting into peoples wounds when they have been bitten, the "Bull", is almost on a par with the Great white.Feed them little kids.
It legitimately blew my mind. 40’s and had NFI they lived in fresh water. They’ll evolve legs… are they the next land predator?

A comparison would be a 16 foot Great white against say a 11 foot Bull, since the Bull doesn't grow much larger than that {there have been a few, but it is rare} the end result, getting attacked by either of these is near fatal, depending on circumstances. Just when you think its safe to go back in the water {certain rivers}, its really not.
Well they're not coming up the Yarra thanks to Dights Falls.
Pre-colonisation, I'd imagine Yarra Falls (located somewhere near Jeff's Shed) would have been a challenge for any sharks before it was demolished. Of course, it's not just the fact that natural falls block sharks and fish from physically swimming upstream but also that the falls prevent tidal effects and that means the upstream water is fresh rather than salt. Bull sharks can swim in fresh water but I don't know of any other shark that can survive for long in fresh water.I don't think we get bull sharks this far south, but before colonisation the Yarra ran clear (as did the Maribyrnong) and sharks did indeed swim up as far as Dights Falls.

There used to be an old joke:Spot the engineering student on campus..
Another "fun" Bullshark fact is that they have the highest known levels of testosterone in the entire animal kingdom making them a bunch of aggressive pricks and much more likely to go after you if your paths do cross compared to other bigger sharks.
It really is mind boggling how few games he has played. Any excuse for this can only be based on speculation because I've seen some unique traits when he has played no flaw that should prevent him getting a game over Dan Howe or Lachie Young.42. Kal D
I don’t get why this bloke hasn’t played more than 5 games in a season and a half on our list especially when Griff went down last year. He hasn’t looked out of place when he has played. Now that BMac has gone and Griff is still down he must be a serious chance to play Rd 1 as a tall, interceptping defender. It presents a big opportunity to nail down a spot before Griff returns.
