I've always wondered what it took to be an umpire. And now I know. Not much. Not much feel for the game. Not much understanding that our ball isn't round and so bounces funny sometimes. Not much knowledge in how hard it is to make a deliberate split second decision to kick a ball out with...
I thought Robbo was talking about mental vs mechanics. I.E You won't deliver if your head isn't in the game, even you are blessed with the best fitness and skills.
Look at Melbourne before Roos, Carlton, Brisbane, etc. Losing games killed their mental side, and so all the draft picks in the...
D. Pearce is awesome. Every time he gets a handball gifted early in a game, he looks like Dr. Frankenstein's monster. Stiff arms outstretched. The inevitable fumble. The constant leaning over to retrieve said dropped ball. And the subsequent up-and-under kick that any under 12 kid practices with...
Sandi in for Clarke.
Johnson in for Mzungu.
Tucker in for Spurr.
De Boer in for Suban.
Langdon in for D Pearce.
A Pearce in for Sutcliffe
There, that looks better already.
Neither do 99% of contested possessions. But people still get hit in the head with force and the AFL wants to eradicate that from our game. It's happened twice in two seasons now.
The umpires designate two people to go for a ruck contest. They are allowed to stand as far apart as they want for...
This is going to be what most clubs will do to Fyfe this year. They know he has a temper. They'll try to use it.
Good on Neale for sucking in half the Richmond side, too.
Profits are great. The profit the club has made this year will be utilised for things in years to come. Whether that is state of the art equipment for the new training facility, an extra scout or two, or investment in facilities down at Peel, this year's profits will allow Fremantle to build a...

Great news! A great year and another profit. Really glad we seem to have cracked the formula to on field success (campared to our first ten years) and with that, we seem to be self-sustained...
Because he did his sentence?
Danyle needs to do his and his and then worry about what he plans to do. Saying you're sorry and rehabilitated doesn't necessarily make it true.

Parties are currently investigating if his contract can be torn up and he be delisted. Doubt it will/should happen. And I would think pick 16 and 34 for a player taken two years ago with pick 13 (?) and who is obviously battling some issues would be more than enough.
He will end up at Fremantle. Both clubs will make it happen. Fremantle to offer a first and second round pick (not necessarily in the same year) is my bet. He won't be a Delisted Free Agent.
When the answer is "he is a required player and will not be traded", then you move on to the next trade, get it done, and come back later. Gubby and the Goof Troop did not want to trade Cam, and that's their right. They knew he had issues and again, it was their right to do nothing. However, the...
They'll get base contract wages, and will have serious recourse for compensation from the EFC and possibly the AFL for damages to reputation (cannot display their wares this year to get endorsements, etc.), earnings (games component of year, future contract sizes, etc.) and limitation of careers...
