My memory tells me that I'm 99.9999999% certain that Phil Kelly was an unactivated sub 39 times.

It's irrelevant that he had his leg in a plaster cast on all 39 occasions. We demand Josh for free retroactively!

He still had the other leg didn't he?

How does this work for stats and averages.
You’d be filthy if you start your career off as sub 5 times and get zero game time and don’t even register a kick.

Honestly go back and draft any past player who didn’t play 100 games and list them as a supplementary rookie.
We ain’t winning shit this year so might as well secure any father sons we don’t have access to.

1981 Grand Final, Carlton v Collingwood. Two interchange players per side, one is Mario Bortolotto (Carlton.) Did not get a run all day, not once despite the interchange system. Game credited to his tally and received his Premiership medallion on the dais.

Likewise Michael McCarthy in the 1978 Grand Final. First year of interchange but didn't take the dressing gown off all day. Went home with a premiership medallion.

Cam Mooney says hi

In fairness to Mario, Cam Mooney did actually get onto the ground early. From memory he slipped over once and in a separate incident gave away a 50. Denis had seen enough.
By the way, Mario Bortolotto is a good bloke! Haven't met Cam.

This is set up perfectly for * to lose points and get relegated from the finals again.

so why wouldn't it be the call of an independent match day medic? then there is no capacity for the rule to be rorted?

Meh then get awarded a #1 pick to get back on their feet.

I think with our list and our injuries - we will get the spoon as well

with few injuries bottom 4/5

 

[Firestarter]

Oh ffs. Why do our ex players in the media think ill of us most of the time?

Is it thinking ill?

it’s bloody obvious we are favourites for the spoon - especially now we have injuries out of our ears

 

[Firestarter]

Is it thinking I’ll?

Think ill (synonymous with unwell), to think badly.

And yeah I'm just being a defensive sooky lala.

We suck balls Wayne is just going with the safe money.

 

[Billy Not Really]

Considering how bad the injury list is already before the season is even underway it's very telling.

A bad start to the season & a run of injuries will lock us in early no matter how good our late season form is.

Crows will have to be pretty ****ing bad to get the spoon this year.

Winston!!!!! Oh, has he got any sons?

 

[RHLK]

Not fussed about the spoon this year so long as 2021 is a foundation for future success, but as a Perth resident an Eagles flag is the ultimate nightmare.

Don't worry, they are.

It has never worked for Carlton.

 

[Long Live the King]

No issue with Ducks opinion on the spoon.....the rest I have issue with

Apparently Josh Walker coming up on Derwayne's World this afternoon. Smiling Assassin first if they're appearing in order of being listed by Derwayne.

Honestly you can't argue with Duck's prediction there. We needed everything to go our way pre-season not to be bottom four and our list of injuries even before a ball is bounced for Round 1 is bordering on diabolical. Anyone that was at Arden St. a couple of weeks ago and saw how we played against Hawthorn's B-side would have to agree we'll be doing well to avoid the spoon.

In saying all of that it IS all conjecture until we've actually played our first game or two, and at least we know that we'll be putting 22 fit players on the park against Port. Right now it's all about the long term re-build so we need to accept some short term pain. Just wish we would have some luck with injuries.

Walker says he wouldn't be surprised if there were some debutants this week. Main training tomorrow to find out.
Talking points include different avenues to goal, through the corridor etc, stuff we've been served over the off season. JW thinks NMFC need to be have a few different 'modes' available which they've been practicing. (Good).
JW on LDU—stood out in drills and had a good summer. Agrees generally with prompt that he could have a great year.

A few other things that we have heard before. Went for about 10 minutes total maybe.

 

[Firestarter]

I'm not used to not reading news from the coach on the Thursday before the round.

 

[Billy Not Really]

Don't worry, they are.

Their pre-season game were shockingly worse than ours, if supporters think we're shit.

Boy those games were a whole new level of shit.
