The whole team did . I don't worry too much about 22 as even the club didn't expect to make it

Who's the player featured (most centrally) in the 7th photo in the gallery of today's match simulation? Is that Paton?

I hadn't made the connection to the Wicks "incident" actually. I don't know enough about what went on to determine Wicks needed to "grow up" based on that. If anything, my suspicion is that he got the rough end of the pineapple in the way that incident became public, but I don't really know.

Wicks has been prone to do a few dumb things onfield, probably less about growing up and more about a player on the fringes of the team trying too hard. And I could imagine McInerney doing something dumb onfield too - I just genuinely couldn't recall anything (and was worried about my memory).

Answered back a couple of times for 50s. That's about it

Thats true. Being nice to someone's Ex or maybe overstepping the mark is a thin line when players have been drinking.
Water under the bridge they have all moved on. The only people who know were there. Have a nice day Liz....

The incident was according to inference, inflamed by a personality at the club reporting to the Ex rubbish. There was then a confrontation between Wicks and the other player who has never been named. That is the information that came out at the time. Whoever the person is who inflamed the situation needs to be moved on no matter who that are

Cox broke them apart "Look. Both your dad's banged Chad's mum. OK?" Instantly Chad comes back at Corey "Hey Corey, that means both our dads banged your mum" Corey goes wild, grabs Chad's jumper and once again Cox is forced to pull them apart.

When Mrs Warner sees the AFL's Instagram post about the incident she can only respond with a face palm.

How do you a thumbs down...I wanted to either do one or like Bedford's thumbs down.
I don't seem to have an option on my phone.

Reid was deemed fit and never made it back to the field..

Logan 5 months since the GF virtually no pre-season.... he probably couldnt even feel that foot it was jabbed up so much.

Not just targeted at you H2F because there are a few who seem to share the same opinion.

Ankle injuries are weird. You can often play on them with good strapping and some needles. Logan probably had this for the GF. Players from all clubs would do this in-season all the time. However, once the season is over and there is a need to fix it long-term, there will need to be a surgery. Ankle surgery often involves a longer recovery than other surgeries even if the symptoms aren't as bad. For instance, some knee surgeries require a patient to walk out of the hospital prioritising movement. Many ankle surgeries are the opposite - the joint is stabilised in a boot for up to 6 weeks. Rehab occurs after this. Basically, you can walk into hospital feeling that everything is fine and then spend the next 12 weeks recovering. Ultimately, though, the joint should be stronger than ever and so it is better to do this in the offseason.

Long story short - it is completely plausible/appropriate that Logan played in the GF despite not being able to train now.

Eveyons focused on Snell, but Edwards could be the guy McCartin moves forward for. Broken leg aside, he;s been around for a few years, he'll prolly get games this year.

Edwards is a lot bigger than Snell (and McCartin and Melican and all the rest) and two years older than Snell. IMO he's the one to push so McCartin can play interceptor or move forward. Snell next year unless someone falls off the twig.

I was thinking similarly.

I fought him for years and it sorta ended in a truce.
Just ignore him is my advice.
Compliment him and he will like you.
If you are genuine he comes around to liking you.
Except when he gives you the thumbs down.

I always enjoy reading your thoughts RD, but I'll admit I am a little bit lost here. The comment of mine that you've quoted was about Rowbottom, not McInerney.

I can only assume you may be referring to the (one) positive comment that I made earlier about McInerney being underrated. I don't know if that got perceived as me claiming McInerney as a favourite of mine (he's not), or that McInerney is without flaws or areas of improvement (he's not), or even what I would consider one of our best players (he's not).

Damn these 3 for $3 reading glasses

Hi Joey. It's always great to have a cheery open-minded fan come on board. But you're also welcome.

Until you've practised writing full sentences you should just elect to ignore posts you don't like.

Should a post cross your personal line of tolerance sufficiently to offend your naiive idealism, you don't have the option to police the speech of others.

Had my reply to the first quip crossed the Bigfooty Line I would have been subjected to a rebuke by one of our esteemed moderators. And forget a mere thumbs down, Bigfooty mods have access to the full suite* of "Disappointed Grandma" icons.

Disapprove
Tick off
Tut tut
Chide
Scold
Rubba, you're full of it

*The next release of IOS will have more icons added, including Berate, Admonish, Lambaste, Remonstrate and Reprimand.

I'm not sure whether you fought Bedford or me. I don't recall such a fight and I certainly don't do truces

If Billy Edwards is as good as Ryan Lester I'll be happy

Is there any place to view more of the match simulation? I was left drooling for more

Edwards has only just started running/sprints after off-legs rehab.

He's behind Melican, Snell, Francis and Hamling in the fitness pecking order.

But he may have one advantage of he can compete at the level. He is effing huge. He can even monster a ruck with his build. He looks like a heavy weight boxer.
