Game Day Around The Grounds Rounds 6 - 13 - brought to you by the makers of rich, malty Horlicks.

Feels like it sometimes but he has never had a season where he got more frees than he gives away.

I still maintain that 4-5 years ago, he should've gotten a few weeks for his first few fendoffs and have been forced to adjust his technique. He aims for your clavicle, and the margin for error has him making contact with people's neck and throat. With that kind of force, he's hitting people in such a way as to do serious damage.

But nup. He's just been allowed to get away with it; indeed, you've got kids countrywide learning how to fend people off from Dusty. At some point, someone's going to get a punch in the throat, and it's going to result in serious injury.

Wait a minute, it already did:

Throat injury to keep Carlton's Ed Curnow out for month

Ed Curnow out for up to another four weeks with bruised larynx but Jed Lamb passes

I’m just going to say it because I don’t think I’ve seen it raised, but is Tom Lynch the most overrated KP forward this century?

It's hard to say, because he kicked what, 60+ goals last year, how many the year before that?

He really does miss shots he should kick, though, and squib a contest he should be killing. Maybe we demand too much of full forwards.

 

[HBF]

Thats a fair mark and goal by Finlayson

 

[HBF]

Thats a fair whack in the face. Giants go bang bang

 

[norway blue]

[Stig O'Hara]

Vlaustin sorta went for the ball, but Tobys 3KZ got in the way.

 

[The Old Dark Navy's]

Wow, that is a costly miss from Daniels from there.

 

[The Old Dark Navy's]

Toby making grimes look average. Pretty fair effort.

 

[Jabba73]

Turned over to the cricket. Footy is done

 

[Gethelred]

Okay, Harlem Globetrotters sh*t now

I'm sorry I missed it.

Cornwall was bowling. Now that's a bloke with the body of a park cricketer.

 

[BLUEALLTHRU]

We'll win the flag

 

[Gavstar]

Wowee, ump called a throw on a Richmond player.... I’m stunned, next they’ll start calling it on the Bulldogs

 

[Elmer_Hauser]

Oh Dear.

From the Richmond board

i reckon i might actually go the full mile and find out where these umps live and dump several trailers of chicken sh*t and also burn their houses down

 

[The Old Dark Navy's]

Gee, I love Haynes.

 

[Gavstar]

Called it too soon no throw on Dusty

 

[Stig O'Hara]

Premiership ruckman Ivan Soldo back on the park.

 

[The Old Dark Navy's]

Perryman has been showed aside like he was nothing the last two contests he has been in. Needs to get stronger because he's pretty good otherwise.

 

[The Old Dark Navy's]

Surely Aarts threw that out there. He had an arm pinned.

Not a chance.
