No, that was me.
What started as a routine bit of work on my groin turned into something much more.
Intrigued?

It's not like any of us would be able to say no if Nico tapped us on the shoulder either...
Never heard that rumour before tbh.

Close.....one of the other player's sister in law who was there to help look after her sister's kids.
Miguel Sanchez

Not sure why he should get dropped for that, unless there was a specific team rule he’d broken.
Out of contract
Dodgy calves
Wrong side of 30

AFL's 50 MVPs: Cal Twomey makes the call (25-1)
The countdown continues as gun reporter Cal Twomey ranks his best 50 players in the competition. Do you agree? Check it out NOW

19 Nic Naitanui (West Coast)
Champion Data ranks Naitanui as the No.1 player in the game for impact. He's a bit further back than that on this list but remains such a unique threat for the Eagles and was named an All-Australian for the third time last year. Naitanui makes things happen like no other ruckman.He's the only Eagle Twomey has put in his list... not sure if that is fair enough or not (TBH, based on the last couple of seasons it probably is - mostly due to injury, vax, form etc), but 19 is outrageous. Just call it a favourite players list, as if you call it an MVP then he's clearly most valuable to our team - and as Twomey stated he is #1 for impact (based on time on ground) in the comp - so if that doesn't define value then I don't know what does.

Was about to post this, what a joke. The following players are not ahead of him;AFL's 50 MVPs: Cal Twomey makes the call (25-1)

Fyfe in the past two years has played 14 and 15 games and hardly been his best, and not even close to NN.
Lever, way too overhyped. His success was born out of his team structure and firing.
Stewart, very good player and I do really rate but doesn't have the impact of NN.
Greene, close to Nic but still behind him.
Merrett, good player but not better.
Hawkins, are you having a laugh.
Neale, only based on last season.
Dangerfield, at pick 7 WTF!!! He hasn't been good for years.

So - Jetta fu**** you ? I'm confused.
Not just that, but if Martin, Danger and Fyfe are included in the list (and in the top-20) then surely Yeo has to be in the top 50. All of the other 3 have had injury interrupted seasons (OK, they are all Brownlow medalists as well, so I'm understanding of why they are rated higher) - but it seems Yeo's injury doesn't get him the same concession.
Gotta listen to the experienced footy folk like Robert Walls and Kane Cornes instead.

Absolutely terrible list.
Cal was good when he started out but he comes across as a big snob these days lol Doesn't like WC much either whenever they are mentioned.

His head got even bigger after his phantom draft last year.
Imagine just being a football "commentator".
Not ex player. Not coach. Not legend. Not even an actualler caller of the game.
Purely someone who talks on a podcast nobody listens to, and is asked for an opinion at draft time, or when the VFL needs some content in the offseason.
