Hard to judge anything from preseason but I agree.
The Brayshaw retirement might have steeled them for a real crack. Just could be a "penny drop" moment for Oliver too.
Gawn is the key if they can keep him fit. He monstered the Blues.

Not Simpkins first knock to the head either.
Seems crap that a team who's player is knocked out from one of these tackles essentially play with a man down.
The AFL should revisit having red cards to players for these kind of tackles.
Agree.
Good way to change the behaviour is remove a man from the field

They could call it the Maynard-Brayshaw rule, just to make it clear what's allowed...

Webster isnt getting a book thrown at him, the AFL will be dropping the entire library on his head for that one.
Forget Powell-Pepper setting the water mark last week. Webster would get 4 weeks for that in 2004, let alone 2024.

I would take it further and say the other team can pick who to remove.
Webster can stay on the field but Marshall can take a seat please.
I think it should be the offending player
Oppo can pick from where in the 6-6-6 the spot is lost (fwd, mid, back)

Sorry I misunderstood your point. You were saying they play 17 vs 18.
I was saying they could still play 18 vs. 18 but the other team can choose a player to remove from the rotation.

Vegas getting the full NRL experience.
Stadium is half full despite giving away thousands of free tickets and there’s been an allegation of a racial slur.
So many casinos for the players to choose where they get into a fight at as well.

Ah.
I reckon a man down on the field hurts more.
Id go so far as to make it 4 quarters so it can carry into the next game too.

If SPP is 4 then that is at least 8 . What a dickhead.
Not sure what he was trying to achieve. He literally left the ground to launch at Simpkin as well. Ross won't be talking with him for a bit.
Essendon, Collingwood and the scum are all being coached by a former Lions player from the threepeat era.

I'm speechless. He's obviously going to need some serious education.
