Pffft please. Barely touched him.


Agree WUBsy. He actually hits the shoulder first...

Hodgey would be embarrassed if Bud got rubbed out for that!


I haven't seen this.
However, Greenwood got done even though he hit the shoulder first earlier in the season.
I'm not saying he shouldn't have been suspended, I'm just not sure it's a defence.

Two weeks for a decent tackle, I guess that is where the game has ended up..

In other news, Nick Riewoldt to hang up the boots at season's end. Has been a privilege to watch all but a handful of his 333 games. Champion.

A tackle that caused a concussion which they are trying to reduce.
Don't agree with it but only way they can reduce concussions in some way

They were saying on Footy Classified last week that Riewoldt wanted to play on next year and he and his management were disappointed the club were still dicking him around whether to give him another contract, I guess they just gave him their decision.

Champion player.

Very much a good player. Began with high expectations and hit the mark. One of St Kildas greatest players.


I think injury has really caught up with him this year and looked lame in a number of games he played. Like Boomer last season needed the ultimate tap on the shoulder

With Dusty sitting on two strikes it could be a very strange Brownlow night if both Danger and Dusty have the asterisk next to their name.

We were talking about that at tea tonight who's on the rung?

Tom Mitchell?

I seriously can't think of any others that have been consistently outstanding.

Crouch has good numbers but certainly not for mine, Sloane and Wines will get a lot of votes early. Zach Merrett? Kelly?

I've had a bit on Kelly hoping Dusty has one more brain fade/cheap shot in him...

If you could pick one forward who would you take; Ben Brown or Joe Daniher?

Big Joe. I haven't liked a Bomber player for years but I'd have him in an instant.

That's the one where he runs back with the flight of the ball with no regards at all for his own safety?
