Yeah true, but you know... **** Port.
Port’s AFL players couldn’t care less about the black and white jumper.

So Zac Butters can't do 30 push ups in a row? WTF?

I don't, I'd rather our president be like those from a West Coast or Richmond whom you barely hear from but they get the job done. When they speak you listen but they don't pick fights or grandstand.
Or like Bob Hammond.....

Butters don't win his ball with strength and endurance, he wins his ball with footy smarts...

I just want a Chairman who protects our club & makes it strong. Someone who makes all within accountable to be the best we can to provide a successful environment.
I want a Chairman and CEO with energy and urgency. Chapman and Fagan are one-paced, have no creativity and rely on ingrained processes. It is no secret they value security and stability over courage and the will to challenge the norms - and there is your culture.

One of them being one paced is fine, but not both.

Sure, but it's 30 push ups, not benching 100kg

Jake Kelly's also been in the AFL system a tad longer than Butters to build strength as well?

Agree. I’ve always admired this about Eddie. Call him a DH or whatever but he sticks up for his club and gets a good whack at it has a bit of influence the flog, so he can sort him and the club and nice cut of the cloth haha

Irrelevant of Kelly and his poor pushup technique, I was just very surprised there was an AFL footballer who couldn't do 30 push ups.
Don't you start doing 20 pushups in U10s?

Interesting Jono Hay article.
Hawthorn are borderline fraudulent for trading him for top value when they knew he had two drug strikes and ongoing problems. That was information North Melbourne couldn't know, and it's as dodgy as **** to trade him without them knowing.

That's an AFLPA issue, and one that won't be changed any time soon. If the shoe was on the other foot North probably wouldn't have told the Hawks.Interesting Jono Hay article.

The clubs don't get told about drug strikes do they?Interesting Jono Hay article.

Either way shrewd business. There are no good guy awards.
I think the doctor gets told after 1 or 2, but there’s a confidentiality to that. Unless Hay told them, the footy dept guys wouldn’t have known.

Dr gets told after one, high ranking officials after 2 but they're under no obligation to tell another club.
What Hawthorn did was morally wrong but in no way illegal
That was a reasonably recent change I reckon. I recall Eddie or Jeff saying a few years ago that they need to find out so they can help.
Get the guy off their books for max value.
Harley Bennell in match sim training. Fingers crossed for the bloke, hope his calves hold up and he guns it up for 2 or 3 years.

That scenario sounds very similar to Chris Yarran's move from Carlton to Richmond
If my recollection is correct, the AFL policy doesn’t really have any peers across the sporting landscape. It needs to be remembered that the players don’t need to allow any extra testing regime outside of WADA. I think it‘s better than no illicit policy whatsoever.
