The only good footy journalism site is The Mongrel Punt.

Just for a minute there you had me.

We played Sydney when we were close to full strength. Only major players we were missing were Hopper, Prestia, Gibcus. No surprise we performed really well. Since then the main outs have been Hopper (other injuries), Taranto, Ross, Lynch, Balta. That's our starting midfield and forward line...

What stage of the game was the Rioli 50m against? Different time zones so missed the game - thank fcuk for that - but I need to keep abreast of bs umpiring

How far did he run? I'm geoblocked from watching it...

Blight is a ******* moron

"The prevalence of soft-tissue complaints not only this season but in yesteryears has members of the Tiger Army questioning the club’s conditioning staff, led by physical performance manager Luke Meehan." Looks like Johnson has been lurking on this board.

It would also explain why our contested numbers seemed to be much better in finals when the whistle is typically put away.

Updated stats including 2017 and all finals until now: Dogs +382 Pies +361 ____________ Lions +163 Crows +156 Blues +132 Eagles +131 Roos +93 Dockers +40 Demons +12 ____________ Cats -22 Bombers -35 Suns -64 Saints -65 Power -78 Swans -159 Hawks -170 Giants -263 ____________ Tigers -558 *this...

There was some pond scum built up in my garden. Does that count?

There's also the numbers for how big the differential is. A team could lose the free kick count every week by 1 and really not be impacted. We are massive outliers in terms of losing the free kick count by 10+. There was a graph posted at some stage showing every team winning vs losing by 10+...

Another point is that everything has changed apart from the jumper but we still get the same treatment. Different coach, gamestyle, players, quality of team with almost 8 years of data. If every variable has changed yet the result is the same, then it has to be bias. There's nothing else that...

I've read some wild stuff on here over the years, but forgiving the nazis takes the cake.

Similar to Willie Rioli putting gatorade in his cup after a game. Obviously didn't test positive for weed, but it still counts as a positive because you're cheating the system.

The main point was that WADA applies it's penalties inconsistently and it's not the most strict institution, therefore Essendon should be cleared. I think that's ridiculous. It's like saying that the cops/courts can be inconsistent and mess up, therefore everyone in prison should be released...

The human aspect is often overlooked in trading. Over the last few years we've let players go in their best interest, and facilitated very simple trades with other clubs, fostering that relationship. That means we're a better chance of receiving similar treatment back (Gold Coast for example)...

Yep. They've turned up at training and at Gawn's house asking for him.

Lynch would kick 10+ a game.

Annoys me when people say how Barry shouldn't have been paid the mark because Sampi/other Eagles players were being held. If you go back one contest, Dean Cox shoves Jolly in the back and takes a mark. It's an incredibly blatant shove that somehow the umpires missed. Cox's kick is marked by...

Because of the lack of evidence that's been revealed, also the fact that the club has absolutely 0 qualms about playing him. What happened was that Pickett's brother-in-law asked for money as a loan, and being a tight-knit family man Pickett obliged. His BIL rented a van in Pickett's name, did...

They don't have anything on him. Plenty on the people who actually committed the crime, but sweet FA on Pickett.

Good to see the Melbourne gambling addiction is still strong in the current playing group. The Schwarz legacy.

Hardly - no trial yet and the crooked WA cops keep pushing everything back cause they've got nothing. As for organized crime, old mate Clayton is indebted to the bikies from his gambling addiction. Also washes that down with plenty of nose beers.

He got lightly tapped on the shoulder.

Still 0 contested marks.

Was just about to respond to your previous post but you clarified here. Throw in Lynch and Balta and we look a lot more dangerous. Lefau has been great but it's his 6th game and he's our #1 target. Lynch/Balta up forward. Taranto/Hopper/Prestia/Ross into the middle. Gibcus down back. That's a...

So does Oliver get done for staging? Also isn't May supposed to be a hard man? Guy throws his head back looking for frees constantly.

Never too late for a trade to the Tigers ;)

It's similar when people downplay Dusty's prelim final against the Pies in 2018 where he didn't do much. Had absolutely nothing to do with a big corkie he got the previous match that meant he couldn't move...

Such a disparity listening to Richo on TT vs Channel 7. Full on Richmond nuffy to toeing the company line. Love the big man and want to see more nuffy when he's live.
