218 and a truck load off frees.

780 to be precise

10.3% of Joel's career possessions have been free kicks

 

[Off The Couch]

So..... any footballers living in the postcodes that have been locked down

 

[TAITA]

Allen Jackovich was handy - kicked 71 in 14 games in his maiden season. Was unstoppable.

Is he already their best player?

Which first year players have ever looked as good as Rowell does, only comparisons I can think of are Selwood, JOM and Toby Greene.

Edit: rogiebear93, I want to put my hand up and say you were right and I was most definitely wrong. I remember prior to the trade and drafting period we were discussing Anderson and Rowell, and in particular the potential of getting pick #2 off GCS to get Anderson. I thought we'd need to get #1 to land him but you were adamant that Rowell was a certainty to go #1. We can all see why now.

Looks to be a bunch of western and northern suburbs. So presumably more Bulldogs and Essendon players. They're allowed to go to work though.

So brave.

218 for Selwood

Is that his average number of soft free kicks per month?

I'd guess that some impacted footballers might find some alternate accomodation - they've got til Wednesday 11:59pm to do so

I wouldn't presume so, as the majority live in the east and south eastern suburbs, Bayside and inner Subs like Hawthorn & Richmond

[Rushed_Behind]

I’d expect this from NRL players but what’s wrong with these people.

 

[Bugs1977]

I’ve really managed to put the mozz on Collingwood. I brought Howe and Sidebottom into my AFL Fantasy team and boom bang pow. Might have to trade Sidebottom for Pendlebury... that will f**k them royally

 

[Hong Kong Hawk]

Don’t worry, I’m sure that CFC brass will somehow blame Heretia Lubumba for this.

 

[Bugs1977]

Crazy eyes looking like he’s 5-6 weeks away

what? How does that work - if they are asymptomatic the spread continues

are students still allowed to go to school if the school is outside that postcode or if kids go to school in that postcode

Could get very messy - wonder how it will be policed

Through random police roadside checks. Driver gets pulled over for a random alcohol and drugs check, shows license as part of the process, once he of she is found to be from that area and doesn't give a valid reason for being out of area they cop a $1600 fine. They'll only have to nab a few doing this for the word to get around for people to stop. I really don't no many people willing to risk receiving fines of that nature.

Hows he compare to the great Matthew Lloyd?

 

[MrPremiership]

Hows he compare to the great Matthew Lloyd?

272 free kicks and 3522 possessions

7.8%

 

[MrPremiership]

For comparison, the great man Luke Hodge: 7589 disposals and 438 free kicks.

A measly 5.8%

 

[QuietB]

Hows he compare to the great Matthew Lloyd?

Only 7.7% for Matthew.

Unfortunately that jumps to to about 75% in preliminary finals against Hawthorn.

People are still allowed to go to work or school within the suburbs or outside them if they have to and if they aren't showing symptoms

It's school holidays at the moment though so it's possible they will change the guidance on schools over the next two weeks.

These people aren't in lockdown because they have or are likely to have the virus, but because there have been recent cases in their local areas that make it riskier to engage in social activities. It's not about quarantining them but instead reducing the risk to them (and then subsequently everyone else) that they'll cross paths with someone who has the virus by limiting what they leave the house for to just the essentials. Work, school, exercise and groceries have been deemed essential. I'm not sure what that means for people whose work or school is outside of their lockdown zone though. I assume they'll need to justify it at any checkpoint and probably get tested and let the authorities know where they'll be if the test result returns a positive.

It's what the country has been doing since the start, now just on a smaller scale. A more targeted approach now that testing and tracking is at a more mature point that allows for micro management. But of course if it continues to spread into other areas the restrictions will come back in a far more far-reaching way.

 

[Pessimistic]

Michael Tuck 11% but a different era. less disposals all round and frees seemed to be paid more

 

[Sturty]

sidearse and dunny looking at month bans for the breach

You can add Carlton and North to the list. Many players live in these areas

What was Clarko saying again about paying frees to open up the game.....
