Why?

 

[bringbackbucky]

So now we can play all 3 ruckmen, and sub one out with shin soreness for a fresh ruck half way through the 3rd. Could solve the problem of Sammy Hayes' tank being the only thing holding him back...

 

[Doctor Feel]

Why?

lol the club knew he would never accept that, it was just to make him look like the bad guy for turning it down.

 

[bringbackbucky]

Wait - so Stengle walked from the Crows and not the other way around?!?!?! Bahahahahaha. Even their suspended players are walking out. You can't make this stuff up.

Stengle can take the pay out AND also go out and play country footy for 1500 a game and all the piss he can drink. Smart move really.

Key position players are never subs. What if Amon or Duursma get injured? We've got 3 rucks on the ground.

 

[ROBBBO]

The AFL have stuffed the sub rule. Had to be mandatory no questions asked 12 day break from matches or nothing

 

[Memphis]

Probably a typo

Damn iPhones and there autocorrect.

Adelaide can't win.

A Concussed Player:
A player who is substituted out of the match with concussion will be sidelined for a minimum of 12 days as per current 2021 AFL Concussion Guidelines in place.

Everyone is thinking that teams will manipulate the sub to get on a fresh player. But this will be the true manipulation. Any player that is suspected of a concussion will be subbed out for some other injury, so that all teams can avoid their players being sidelined for 12 days.

Nah, he's got a neck issue from that collision and we're removing him as a conclusion. He's fine from a concussion point of view and doesn't need to be tested.

Wait the crows have a culture?

Probably a typo

Clerical error ?

 

[TeeKray]

Lol, he should've taken up the offer and then dominated the SANFL, making them look like idiots for not picking him as they lose their 12th game in a row.

That wouldn't make them look bad, it makes them look like a club with integrity (which is why they wouldn't actually do it). Although sometimes having integrity does make you look stupid.

Darcy Byrne-Jones missed a game because he was late for a training session. Now just imagine that was Charlie Dixon who was late for training. Show integrity and suspend him for failing to follow team rules, or look the other way because he's an important player in the side and he's playing well anyway, despite being late for training.

The latter would be us negatively impact our game day performance so you could call that stupid. Especially if he plays SANFL and kicks a bag of goals showing the training tardiness has no impact on his performance...

Dixon excused coz he's from Qld where they don't have daylight saving.

So I have a mobile with telstra and could watch AFL games free last year, is this now replaced with the need to pay the reduced Kayo price?

McGuire is an ornament to the game




of being a complete and utter campaigner

Very cruel, this is what I first saw ...

"Eddie McGuire has reportedly made a last-minute decision to end his time in TV ...




... wilderness after being left shattered at his Collingwood demise, and will return tonight as host of Channel 9’s Footy Classified"

150 mils rain in Sydney from Thursday to Sunday and GWS v Saints could be awful.

LOL ... So lets see, after Ebert gets his head knocked off & wobbles off the ground like a drunken 90 y/o with wonky knees, the doc signs off that he has hamstring awareness and will be out of action for eleventy days, only to miraculously play the next week!

Yep. I reckon we can get away with that.

Is that the stuff SEQ is getting now? No play again today in the Qld v Vic Shield match.

Start them all in the centre square. Triangle of Doom.
