sam must have a quota of articles he has to submit before he gets paid - so he submits this garbage and gets paid anyway - article first, then the headline, sam - not the other way round

The V8 and the sports car that can drive the rise of the Saints

Won the Clinton Grybas award for up and coming reporters. Must have been the only one eligible.

Scary to see how far he has fallen

Not a fan of Barrett but Luke Darcy is trying his best to bully him into silence.

What a soft clock.

In what context?

I ws watching future stars on channel 9 this morning (i think) and i wanted to post a couple of quotes from supposed experts who are paid to talk about football.

Nathan Brown (host) asked Cal Twoomy if Tom Lynch was a restricted FA, he was told he is a restricted FA to which Brown went on about how Collingwood will have to find some currency as they will ned to give up a lot to get Lynch. He and Harvey then went on to suggest trading Degoey and Elliott.

Does he not understand what FA is?

In this case, it's probably going to shape up like a Dangerfield deal (i.e. Gold Coast will be prepared to match anything the Pies throw at him), at which point if he still wants to go it'll be a trade.

Those deals in my opinion depend on ladder position. The crows at the time were higher than the Cats so any compo for Danger would have been unsatisfactory. If the Suns were to finish below the side Lynch goes to then matching any offer is quite risky.

Genuine star KPF, TPP not squeezed.

If the Pies have a pick in a similar range (and they will), they'll grab that and more off them.

Agreed, but if he leaves for the Tigers for example, there is no point matching.

He stays imo, the deal will be big and I think there will be some secret AFL herbs and spices thrown in.

Has the AFL actually changed the centre bounce call back rule?

It was very simple, if the bounce didn’t allow both rucks to contest evenly it would be recalled.

But it seems the trend has continued on from the GF last year. The bouncing has been horrible and the synick in me feels it’s a push to phase it out.

 

[thylacine60]

crazy stuff saturday night - it will go no doubt

 

[Jatz]

I wish it wouldn't. The best thing about a good bounce is it's unpredictability. Just throwing it straight in the air does nothing.

May as well have both teams stand on the edge of the centre square, place the ball in the middle and then race in when the whistle goes, dodgeball style.

We've already got the dodge bit down pat.

Dodge the ball, dodge opponents that possess the ball, dodge responsibility or accountability etc etc.

Need to trade for Selwood and Rance

Might be looking to add Christenson, schuey and matheison too.

 

[passmark]

Listening to Robbo it seems pretty clear that he's a mouthpiece for the same coterie group that boned Knights and now they've turned their guns on Whoosha.

Hopefully it works out as well as that brave decision .

 

[passmark]

Anybody else not really all that bothered about the biting incident?

Looks massively overblown to me .

A week at worst.

 

[Arr0w]

Judging the impact, i agree, not a lot there, as an act, he should cop at least 4 weeks

Dog act

It's hardly Tyson on Holyfield.

True but when it comes to acts like that, what message would it be sending to junior levels

Yeah I hear that argument but I'd much prefer any kid of mine to get a mild graze (at worst) from sum teeth than a jumper punch.
