Dirty & head high - Id be surprised if he copped less than a minimum 4 weeks - and that's with an early guilty plea.

Actually, I take back any defence I may have allowed him. A f****** disgrace. My 5 year old daughter would knock him into next week. How he ever got a contract to play AFL football is beyond me.

15 other clubs should be so lucky. Taken a long time to get there, but boy, HAS HE GOT THERE. Does not get anywhere near the accolades or recognition he deserves, but f*** me thank God he represents Essendon.

I have never made a post on him before. But honestly, is he part of the future? Weak as piss, just when you think he might do something he shits in his own pants. This is not a bagging thread, but seriously, is there not another big man in the reserves that could be given an opportunity to replace h...

Did I just hear he broke his hand - out for next 6 odd weeks.............?

Holds the key to our performance today - and practically for the rest of the season.

Spot on - by a mile.

Spot on Ossie. I noticed exactly the same thing too. Both times against Polak and Slattery, he's jumped knees first into the defender dropping back into his space as though he's attempting to take the mark, but both times he's had absolutely no chance of taking the mark, so i put both acts down as ...

In some ways, I reckon it was close to Lloyd's best game EVER. As he was lining up for goal after that spekky, I looked up at the stats on the big screen and he had something like 17 possessions and yet no goals . I thought to myself, geez, how often would you see Matty not kick one goal and yet be...

He probably won't get done, more for my enjoyment really. :wink: Surely at least one but they let Goodes off. Franklin's at least was a genuine hip and shoulder with no raised elbow. Adelaide player falling to the ground prior to contact made it look bad. Even so, hate the hawks and hate Franklin s...

It looked bad, but Im not so sure on the replay.
Anyways get real, AFL aint going to want him sidelined.
He doesnt play for Essendon so 10 bucks says reprimand!!

Much more suited in the forward line imo.

But it's when the sets of umpires have different interpretations on the field (ie all 3 umpires have 3 different interpretations) and pay them inconsistently throughout the match ....... Which is what mostly happens every game. I can cop different interpretations provided they are CONSISTENT all ov...

Is it just me, or can you watch 8 different games each weekend and see 8 different sets of rules depending on umpires? Holding the ball decisions range from as soon as you are tackled you are gone, to hold it as long as you like and we'll ball it up. The umpires just wouldnt call a holding the ball ...

It's got to be said - we are the dumbest team in the comp. Every goal we score these days is due to luck - not one movement forward is based on planning and/or confidence. We bomb away and we get a grab - or we lay off a risky hand pass at through the middle that comes off and we luckily have playe...

Sorry, having trouble working the msg reply, not sure if it is sending.
Yes - email postal details, will send right away.

Regards.

Yes.....

Lloyd for Buddy
Lucas for Brown

Otherwise no.

22 possessions, 91% efficiency, 5 clearances, 8 marks. Can everyone please respond to this thread with either "I wanted to keep him because he was a 21 year old KPP" or "I thought he was rubbish". For mine: "I wanted to keep him because he was a 21 year old KPP" "...

And you suggest we should...... Kick more than 10 goals for a game of footy would be a start..... Wouldn't mind seeing that in one quarter! The worst part is, I'm actually deluded enough to believe that's possible. When they are going, they're unstoppable. Problem is it happens for a 10 minute burs...
