My thoughts are with you and your mum mate. Spasticity is a terrible condition.

Agreed, it was spine tingling at the ground hearing it

I'm not 100% sure of my facts but Richie Fejo's grandmother (the bloke doing the welcome to country) had a similar story to tell as the Rabbit Proof fence

They basically went walk about across the top end to avoid the authorities when the stolen generation policies were in vogue.
Let that be a lesson to you Port, no one beats the Bays five times in a row in a GF and gets away with it!!!

Well St Kilda v Brisbane was more entertaining than the early game!
Saints kick more goals and lose.

If the AFL wasn't so money driven it would be awesome if ithe game stayed in Darwin. You could see how much it meant to the locals.

It’s more than the money though.
Both are Melbourne based clubs and their members would be filthy if they had to give up a home game.
I would love us to play up there more if someone else is willing to give up a home game.
Ideally the NT would have their own team but they won’t even give Tasmania one.

Dixon was sighted for putting his forearm out to brace his fall as he was tackled to the ground when the ball was not in play. ;)

$1000 fine.

Utterly FARCICAL

So now we have the situation that no one wants to get the ball for fear of being tackled and pinged HTB after a 1/2 second of prior opportunity and players are fearing tackling players to the ground for fear of being pinged for dangerous tackles.

The game has never being in a worse state of confusion in it's history :oops:
