Old Croc Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 23 hours ago, farmerjo said: The forwards at the Dockers were on a hiding to nothing,to many mids and backs racking up stats and the Cats throwing a spare down back just made it worse,Lyon didn't have the balls to man up the spare early,poor coaching. I wish the modern day kids would take a leaf out of the Sam Mitchell handbook. Break the game open with a 15-20 metre handball,not 5 handballs in 10 metres and stuff it up.They may have a good beep tests these days and they need it. That's Freo in a nutshell Jo. I don't know how many times I've shouted "kick it now" at the TV when watching them. They just have to keep going until they lose it! One of the reasons I've always liked Priddis is that he will bang the ball on to his foot and make ground. If it falls to the wrong side at least it's 40 metres up field. I think I used handpasses about 3 times in my career. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ron19 Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 Troubled former AFL star Ben Cousins has been sentenced to 12 months in jail and fined $2400 for stalking and drug offences. Cousins, 38, was sentenced in Perth Magistrates Court today, having previously pleaded guilty to 11 offences, including aggravated stalking, breaching a violence restraining order and drug possession. When the former West Coast captain was arrested, police found eight grams of methamphetamine in his possession, which his lawyer Michael Tudori told the court would only last him four days. The violence restraining order was taken out by his former partner Maylea Tinecheff, with whom he has two children, aged three and five. The court heard the VRO breaches related to Cousins visiting the children's school and church, and making repeated phone calls to his former partner. Cousins called Ms Tinecheff 371 times in February before his arrest, including 50 times in one day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
optad Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 Sorry to hear this outcome. I hope this works in Ben's favor. He was pushing 'end game' constantly. I do not wish anything but the best for Ben and know from working experience what he faces, the difficulties and doing what he faces alone. It is time for silver linings and removing choice might just be the first step. Still young. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most likely he has some thing like obsessive compulsive disorder and a host of other things, sport and a ridged environment help keep him on the straight and narrow now he has nothing, 300 calls in a month well you don't have to be a rocket scientist to know something up top isn't working like it should... lot of people like him that don't get press, for Ben goodbye I won't comment on it again, my ex wife and son and now I'm thinking my daughter in a milder form suffer from something like this yet they lead normal lives....Sent from my iPhone using Thaivisa Connect Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ripstanley Posted March 29, 2017 Share Posted March 29, 2017 (edited) I find their live streaming very poor. Their response to complaints is also very poor Edited March 29, 2017 by ripstanley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrantSmith Posted March 30, 2017 Share Posted March 30, 2017 Urgh... WatchAFL has been poor for years! The only thing it had over streaming sites was that it was a pretty clear HD quality picture otherwise it was a waste of money.

Thought my Kangaroos leadership group were awful with goal kicking and moving the ball forward. However i then watched the Purple haze and thought Neesham was coaching again. 500th game. It was nostalgic. Nice atmosphere with plenty of the old comments and advice from the past. I did miss "Kick it to Pav!!!"

joboss Posted March 30, 2017 Share Posted March 30, 2017 BTW,,, I hate Thursday night footy. I can’t relax and concentrate on footy for the weekend when I am expected to front at work on Friday morning. It sucks. Good Friday footy is a positive move, Should have 3 games around the country at our wonderful stadiums. Maybe only fish and chips could be purchased at the food concessions. ...keep the Catholics happy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Much prefer Monday night to thursday night although Friday, Saturday and Sunday afternoon works just fine frankly. Was not at my best today. Good to hear confirmation this morning the grand final stays at 2:30 pm. Took Gillion long enoough. Must have been a close call. Agree re Hardwick. Give him another contract so the tiggers can return football balance and Ninthmond's losing ways. Nothing surer than the tiger's sleepers to start premature making noise. Two wins will do it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
