Here, I'll draw it in a simple picture so you guys can understand.
Rmember this post from the second showdown GBU? It only got 40+ likes and you goons are only on here all the time so I'm surprised you would've missed it!? Then again, I also wouldn't be surprised... continued below

View attachment 2139780

So going off some of the info in that pic, do I need to do up a spreadsheet matrix of concussions done by one club to players of another club to prove to you that there seems to be an awfully high rate of concussions of our players committed by port, or can you just accept it without the spreadsheet?

Also, can you accept that the AFL talks about protecting players from head injuries these days, or do I need to set up a spreadsheet correlation to prove that to you as well?

If we accept both these statements, then isn't there some responsibility owed to the Crows, by the AFL, via the umpires, to protect our players from head injury concussions from the meat head Port players?


Have we been recieving that recently?

If not, why not?

Hopefully you can understand this without the spreadsheets.

Cheers boys

It’s the umpires job to umpire the game, not to remember incidents and seek retribution.
If the club has issues with how things have been handled it’s up to them to seek clarification, not fans on big footy.

First of all, that’s a screenshot not a link to the thread. You want us to read it, link it.

Houston just got 5 game suspension didn’t he and miss the finals? What more do you want? A public hanging?

Oh Carmo, you never fail to amuse

Yes the umps in the heat of the game “hey didn’t that player get concussed a year ago? The sin bin it is!!”

Rozee or butters?

Potentially two disgruntled and want away players on their list…..

And given all the talk he wanted out as soon as he got here.

Soldo happy to stay now? No one wants him?

Wheels really falling off the destination club wagon this off season.

Hopefully his horrible partner stays in Melbourne.

Man **** this guy. Acting like he's living in bloody Kherson. What a campaigner.

Maybe Soldo should concentrate a little bit more on being a half adequate footballer and a little bit less on the quality of his avo toast and latte

 

[kirky]

That supports my argument more doesn't it? It wasn't that Laird went out of his way to be a prick to Rachele, he was just one person who had a media gig, a regular, routine one, just after the news about the reprimand for Rachele got out. So they asked him about it and he answered.

Well I would argue it could have done it with a straight bat but he chose not to. He is not part of the leadership group.

hes got it the wrong way round

city is fine club stinky

The other incident that stands out to me the game where Allir and Jones completely poleaxed each other, trying to put Thilthorpe to sleep

And we all know how that finished up for the powers

 

[Draft Bored]

Wow, that’s a miles better deal for us and gives us the ability to trade our future first.

 

[FR0GGY]

Wow, that’s a miles better deal for us and gives us the ability to trade our future first.

Wonder if both clubs think GWS are finishing above us.

 

[George Kramer]

Wow, that’s a miles better deal for us and gives us the ability to trade our future first.

And that’s why they’ve said no. Need to get their future third back instead of their second and it’s a deal

 

[CDC60]

Wonder if both clubs think GWS are finishing above us.

If we finish above them we virtually get him for free. Hard to see a form reversal that strong for both teams as the Giants came very close to the GF - but they are losing at least three best 22 players

 

[1970crow]

Wow, that’s a miles better deal for us and gives us the ability to trade our future first.

Seems too little to me.

GWS are well within their rights not to accept that deal.
