Yes and avid NRL followers will say that’s even a bit narrow. Dogs are a rabble and should be $40’s

I thought the Bombers were meant to win the spoon???

Sent from my SM-G781B using Tapatalk The general consensus amongst most Bomber supporters was bottom 4 certainties and a few of the media experts said wooden spoon. I don’t think anyone could have expected the kids to have made such as a immediate impact and that it would take Rutten at least a year to remove the Worsfold stench

Knight will probably end up at Port.
We will lose Callow and now that Knoll’s knee is worse than first thought I doubt we lose him.

11 in Sicktoria today
Another month of lockdowns announced in 3,2,1......

What time is the review due?

These umpires lol
Deadset making it up

Port Douglas in 27 days from now,
Daintree tour, Kuranda train tour, The Reef day trip,
Staying at the Pullman Sea Temple, can't wait to just walk out the door & fall into the pool.

Best time of year to head up there, check out Palm Cove also, expensive but absolute paradise
Yep, staying in Mantra Amphora in Palm Cove for 4 nights, then on to Pullman Sea Temple in Port Douglas. Can’t recommend those 2 places highly enough. Both fantastic and being Accor Diamond we get treated like Kings there. Some of the upgrades and freebies have been awesome over the years.
Highly recommend going the Kuranda train up and the Skyrail back down if it’s open. Pay a little more for the train and go Gold class if you want free grog and some nibbles aswell as better seating

You could tell a long way out they were going to get them over the line.

The funny thing is they don’t even try to hide it over there

The package on fire today
Lol, they’re talking about giving him a 4 year contract on the radio. He’s had a day out against the second bottom team.
I wouldn’t touch him with a 10 ft barge pole. Played well against West Coast in Perth a few weeks ago. Still one of our most important players. The penny seems to have dropped for him and he is in the best shape of his life. I wouldn’t be overpaying him but I hope we keep him

Armchair expert wrote:Let be honest, how much would Australia get rolled for against this bowling in these conditions

less than 100 imo

Not against the Kiwis
They turn to jelly against us.
And besides we would knock them over for 80

Final
Norwood 10.12.72
Centrals 5.12.42

Solid win but nothing to rave about. Scoreboard flattered us a bit especially after 1/4 time. Centrals seemed to dominate and control the ball for large periods but simply don’t have a forward line currently capable of kicking a winning score. Dogs would have won most of the stats including inside 50’s but 4 of their 5 goals come in 1 quarter and they looked fairly toothless up front apart from that brief period

Whats the rules around that? - if any

We are free to travel there and most places

Maybe coz i dont follow the covid shit heavily anymore.. but can you explain why we are having some restrictions placed on us when the only cases we record are returned travellers in medi-hotels?! 29 of the miners from the NT mine are here. Some of the miners have now tested positive in other states.
Also when the Sydney lockdown was announced tens of thousand fled interstate.

Work has informed us that SEQ is about to go into a 7 day lockdown

Would imagine so.

Thanks Jim, what have you advised Stevo and Nicola or are they going to hit you up tomorrow for your recommendations? Unfortunately they wouldn’t follow my recommendations :)
Just get some of the gossip with my daily 6am coffee with the AFP and ABF lads :)

Port v Melbourne Thursday night
Essendon v Crows Friday night

Kick straight we win .What about the reaction of that spud Garner after the siren and he is an average spud at that.How can Westhoff spend 95% of the game on the ground and not be told by the umpires to get off.

Yes not Garners finest moment. Just shone a light on himself for all the wrong reasons.

Again a most impressive effort from our backlines. Llewellyn is in great nick since his recon, and Neagle, Weaver and Morton all vying for Most Improved as the season progresses. Aleer given license to compete.

Looked much better when Fort is in the ruck. But also needing him to compete up front.
Get his brother back next year hopefully.
Fu**ing annoying in circumstances like this.
I know it's all been said before but if We had a salary cap of $1million, we'd win every week. Except if every other team had a salary cap of $1m aswell ;)

All restrictions lifted effective immediately. Vic border opened fully

NNQ Friday night, any recommendations?

this is 100% not my type of food I normally start with either the Satay Chicken skewers or the Sticky Rice with Vietnamese sausage.
For mains I love the Caramelised Pork Belly and the slow cooked duck and ginger. Their Pho’s are excellent too especially the spicy beef.
Great range of food and haven’t had a bad meal there

Do you know how long Heppell is expected to be out mate?

Possibly only this week

Question for more learned folk than I.
Mrs loves ch94 and all the sh1t that goes with it.
One thing that has peeked my intrigue is what is the fascination with yanks and 2 sink bathrooms??

Is it just a yank thing?
And why???

Sent from my SM-G781B using Tapatalk We had one at our last house and it was fantastic.
Very handy if you are going out and have to get ready at the same time. I’d quite often use mine to have a shave and the missus would be using hers for makeup etc

Was there actually a game played or was everyone just looking at the scoreboard? :? Game was played.
Always good to win there and scoreboard reflected the play IMO.
Thought we were in control for most of the game and thought Port were fairly average and that our bigger bodies really was a big advantage. Too often Port players were knocked off the contest or we broke multiple feeble tackles. Port don’t seem to have any system at all and their fitness seemed quite ordinary aswell. Best 5 or 6 players on the ground probably belonged to Norwood, Grigg and Douglas especially looked a class above. For Port Bonner got a stack of it but many little cheap ones and didn’t have a huge impact, Hartlett tried his guts out all day and was probably their best IMO. Not sure if anyone really is deserving of a call up though

Meh, winning a T20 WC holds the same prestige as being World Tiddly Winks champions.
Couldn’t give a stuff if we lose every T20 as long as the test side is going well

So, Crowies, Lynch, Talia and Crouch, what do you do with them?
All are RFA's at season's end.

Can they get anything for Crouch, no one will touch the other two unless they are a mature aged rookie as a back up, Talia and his cat may have some chance there but Ginga Lynch will be working on his media career at a guess.

Remind me again, if say Talia and Crouch were taken by other clubs through FA, what do the Crows get out of that? (other than wages off the book) Draft picks. Crouch might get them a second rounder but the others don’t have any value

Crows and Port warned not to go to Melbourne and looks like a Showdown this week now

Tassie downgrading SA to low risk and opening the borders as at tomorrow, here we come! :D

I genuinely thought we were a 50/1 shot of getting on the plane Thursday.
You’ll love it, mate. Tassie is a great place.
Get to the Salamanca Markets early Saturday morning & make sure you have a few pregame/postgame froths at the Waterfront Hotel only a short walk from the ground. +1 to that.
Waterfront out on the deck with a few beers is awesome on a nice day. Have a mate that has awesome views over the ground

Essendon v Swans at MCG tomorrow 3:10pm

Essendon v Swans at MCG tomorrow 3:10pm
That will ease the tears of a heap of bombers supporters (not you) who have been bitching about going to brisbane We shouldn’t have been in QLD, it was a disgrace. No crowd tomorrow so no difference and we would get flogged wherever we played but it’s not the point
Bit rich complaining when the side you are playing hasn’t been home for about a month Speak to Gladys about that.
Not our fault she can’t run a chook raffle :)

Hurn’s 300th and they put up their usual interstate garbage. Pies might win by 100 today

Ya think………….

Patty Mills just WOW!

I sincerely hope the government/SMA/SA Health and working hard to get some AFL finals there, not too fussed about the GF but it would be awesome to see some neutral finals here at AO, huge opportunity for SA.
I just can't see our Government having the flexibilty to accommodate what the AFL wants. Forcing Olympians into a further 14 days quarantine would not enthuse the AFL hierarchy.
Severely over sensationalised by the media. I don’t agree with the 28 day quarantine thing but it’s only if you return via Sydney and it’s because we have zero faith in their system. Think it’s only about a dozen athletes, the others who quarantined in other states only have to do the 14 days at arrival port.
Has been talk that if ladder ends up how it is then Sydney v West Coast would be played here and others go to Perth
Given the slack system NSW seems to have about lock downs and the fact that quarantine hotels are not guaranteed to prevent spread, it seems reasonable to require the extra 14 days at the SA end. And what the stupid media haven’t reported is that the AOC was informed this would be the case on July 30th which gave them plenty of time to arrange alternate flights. The AOC failed to tell athletes until they landed in Australia

Are there any players from the Collingwood squad left over who systematically called Lumumba 'chimp'? They got off lightly didnt they.
He got called chimp for his agility and long arms not because he is black.
Everyone draws the conclusion that it was cause he was black.
Its easy to draw that conclusion yes, and we now know better.
Spider Everitt, should he be pissed off too?
We had an Indian bloke in our junior cricket team we called panther cause he was brilliant in the field, and pounced on everything.
What I'm saying is there are contexts that need to be considered, before the unknowing, draw out the race card. Lol, despite him hating the name and himself and others continually calling it out they still did it. Not shocked with a racist President running the show though

NO AFL IN SANFL FINALS!

You effin beauty

Teague will get the boot and in 2 years time they will be in the same position.
Blame the coach, not the list. Rinse and repeat

Fitting end for Murphy
