I know how to fix Simpkin disposal !

Jy should AIM to kick to an opposition player intentionally ….

And it almost certainly will result in it going to a team mate

It will just go to one of the other four opposition players who have worked harder to get into the vicinity though

One charge of refusing a breath test within three hours of driving a motor vehicle involved in an accident has been dropped against former North Melbourne footballer Mick Martyn.

​

Former North Melbourne premiership defender Mick Martyn has been able to shrug off a charge of refusing a breath test within three hours of driving a motor vehicle involved in an accident.
Mr Martyn 55, a rugged defender for the Roos and for a short period with Carlton fronted Melbourne Magistrates’ Court on Monday
Police alleged Martyn refused a breath test in Newport on January 10, 2022, after he was believed to be the driver involved in a car accident.
Martyn’s lawyer Warwick Walsh-Buckley told the court his client was suffering from hearing challenges at the time he allegedly refused the breath test.

Mr Walsh-Buckley argued there was insufficient evidence to prove his client refused to provide the breath test within the three-hour window of the believed collision.
“We submit that the requirements of no case submission have been met and it would be justified in dismissing the charge,” he said.
“I can’t see how a reasonable jury could convict at this point.”
One count of refusing a breath test within three hours of being the driver of a motor vehicle involved in an accident against Martyn was dropped.

If either miss, it's a joke.

An absolute joke.

 

[Makeshift Park]

Who the **** cares.

Only has marginally more integrity than the Brownlow.

Zorko and Ryan are the kind of squad nominations you'd make if you deferred to Supercoach instead of your supposed football expertise.

 

[DrZaius]

Based on that you'd think Xerri would be a lock for the 22.

Also lol @ Luke Ryan being there. That's a stat selection if i've ever seen one. Gets the vast majority of his possessions from sideways chips.

 

[CURVE]

Will be feasting on Sheeze and Xerri's this Thursday night.

Mummys boy, as much as we detest the little campaigner, deserves to be there. Outright gun and we can almost single handedly blame our board and coach at the time for his departure

We signed Clarko before he left though so it's not like he thought he was going to have another year of Nobles.

Damage done

I don’t know if thats 100% true. A lot more to that than meets the eye

I mean Port were clearly into him from the start. Our shit performance and culture certainly didn't help either.

As everyone would be. Was our job to keep him, we failed, miserably. Add it to the list of our reason to a dire situation. Our board is a disgrace. Needs a massive clean out.

First Crack preview showed we had a pretty tough draw for a bottom two side.
We played top 8 teams 11 times. Eagles only 7 times. Hawks 9 times. Bombres was I think 7 as well.
So whilst I don't think we're getting out of the bottom six for a few years until we get above 10 wins, we might at least get a slightly easier draw next year hopefully.

Are we talking top 8 from this year or last year? We played Bulldogs, Geelong and Hawthorn twice
- all of whom made the 8 this year, but not last year. The only team in last year’s top 8 we played was Carlton.
