After all, Brian Lake was such a renown speedster. Weitering too.

The man tells no lies - September 2, 2013:

I actually really like this idea. Spread the $$$ out equally amongst ALL players and it benefits those on lower contracts the most. Another suggestion was for it to be added to players "Superannuation" fund for the post football life (perhaps paid only to those on base/low contracts, draftees...

sorry to intrude - was intrigued by the title, but thought this comment the most easily modified into our game. Baseball has both Starting Pitchers and Relievers (close to our 1st/2nd ruck situation). Adapting this into our game "could" provide flexibility to include another running option...

2024 has been below his career average disposals, kicks, marks, metres gained, tackles. ...yet it's the best he's ever played IMO.

All I take from this is "Congratulations to Rowan Marshall on being adjudged best on ground." The rest is misguided. "Your team just lost, but winning this award must feel pretty special - tell us how happy you are" Present a medal/trophy to the winning team captain if you must - but don't...

He did. Landed heavily on his back from a height, bounced (literally!) back to his feet and applied defensive pressure until the ball was cleared. Once the ball was cleared, he doubled over to try and catch his breath and spent the next five minutes on the bench getting his ribs checked by...

My GP certainly wouldn't win any "bedside manner" awards. I think last time she said "maybe like try NOT eating?"

2008 was clearly his best year after the siren! For mine he was a more unique footballer in the 07-09 period - genuinely a midfielder in a KPP body. He kicked the century in 08, and perhaps as few as 20 were from contested marks at FF. He was a (very) tall, (VERY) fast flanker/pocket who...

This. Botched recovery after his surgery with multiple re-infections (IIRC he went surfing soon after the surgery, I guess in the 2008 off-season?) - and never seemed to regain the strength in his hands. He was never a great contested mark anyway, but after this injury his marking became a...

Agree. We play him until either he fatigues or his confidence drops to the point he isn't competing in the air. Box Hill only if his form drops away dramatically. Whether that's 2, 5 or 15 games this year it will be invaluable for his long-term development. Only difference to senior players...

Dont' usually speculate as training will help decide, but strategically, I'd look to give Gunston and/or Dear the week off - we need to manage both their workloads this season. Outs: Scrimshaw (Suspended) Dear/Gunston (week off, keep him fresh for as long as we can) Ins: Phillips Ryan...

Onya Scrimshaw

...so far.

What does Stephen Roger have to do with this?
