How Steven May measures the one-yard social distancing rule.

 

 

[Will27]

Interesting at around the 7 minute mark, they're talking about Kane Cornes Melbourne media bias comments.

Then following on about the Nick Reiwoldt V Pavlich question that was put to Ross Lyon.

 

You wouldn't be unhappy with either but I'd take the Big Pavlova.

How's Brownless's comment "we didn't see enough of Pav"?

FMD, every game is broadcast.

 

One of the problems with the media is that buffoon's like Brownless still get a gig.

Most have moved on from listening to Bill talk about his frothies.

Pav plays over 300 games and Billy claims we didn't see enough of him.

 

Sydney also had a player the Melbourne media like to underplay at every opportunity. Adam Goodes, 372 games, Premiership winner, Dual Brownlow medalist, All Australian and Australian of the year. One of the greatest players of his generation.

Well its good that Chooks is a busy man......theres a bit of noise down at the mud hole thats located just near South Road not far from Nepean Hwy, though id think there joshing the kid, i mean hes never shown to much so why redraft McCartin? Mr Chooks WILL cut off all discounted Booze sales to the Saints social club if that happens again....

 

Lot of noise about restarts to the various football seasons around the world....Scotland's lower leagues have now wound it up due to the fact they needed there money so there done and dusted but the 44 teams above them well there sweating it out, meanwhile the EPL want all there games played by mid july....Even Gill's been in the news like a lot of chat but no details in fact we dont even see a plan.....

 

Which brings to my mind....How to get rid of Simon Goodwin......i even google'd it....seems he went off to a retreat as well as the US to learn some more, Ooooommmmm....Bali retreat...well it didnt help so far.....So what does a smart man do? We get an online tarot reading thats what we do.....the question is WILL Simon Goodwin get the sack from the MFC before the end of this year?

 

Wow....I like this reading.....How do you feel about yourself?...wheel of fortune...i see it as Russian roulette....one bullet in the chamber ...means i have hope of him getting the chop....

 

What you want right now...the Lovers...its telling me i want a new coach...its coming...when in the spread its eventualy coming....

 

Your fears....The Chariot....ho ...he might dig in and hang on....thats what i dont want....

 

What is going for you.....The Moon....ahhh love it......something going on beind closed doors...Clandestine affairs....Glen has the axe ready to fall with a replacment......GREAT...

 

What is going against you....The Hermit...ahh....looks like end of season chop....

 

The likely Outcome....Death....thats change....means Simon wont pass muster and becomes an ex coach at seasons end....too bad i have to wait that long...

 

Im telling you its a waste of time starting the season with Simon in charge....The way they just caved in to the Eagles, no spirt there nothing at all.....

 

Turnbull has a book coming out soon....already had Rupert...the guy married to Gerry Halll and his son say my dad never said that as well as Peta Credin who couldnt get butter to melt in her mouth to say its all lies...the world of politics.....Really i did like Malcom but the book? no no no.....they all do it dont they? I cant wait for Peter Duttons....book....

 

Sam "Randy" Newman marches on and too Spring street.....wanted to ask Andy why they cant play golf....https://www.news.com.au/sport/afl/sam-newman-marches-on-victorian-parliament-over-golf-course-lockdown/news-story/bed0d31d8462d5702c6be326d6e35b46 yep the footy show man wants to play golf....Of course Andy was to busy to come out on the steps to parlavou with Sam on stage 3 lockdown.....I recomend Sam to go buy a golf game and play it on his pc.....

 

Take a look here and see what 3 years of coaching that rabble known as the Demons can achive.... https://www.realestate.com.au/news/paul-roos-afl-premiership-coach-scores-brighton-sale-in-four-days/?rsf=syn:news:nca:news:spa:strap nice place.....Seeing that place Simon wont give in easy.....

 

And i agree https://www.news.com.au/entertainment/music/paul-mccartney-reignites-rivalry-with-rolling-stones-insisting-the-beatles-were-better/news-story/fa2d29f62a0a9870451ce2258cf028fc certianly the Stones are tired now, there been like dead since the 90's well by the 2000, there best ever period was from Let it Bleed to around Black and Blue....thats all folks..., and there god dam boring to watch live....think old WILL loves em....mate just buy there greatest hits, you be wasting money to see them live.....at least old Slow Hand and even Carlos freshen up there songs with new arrangements when playing live but not Mick and Keef.....no sir...they learn to play one way and cant change....I have tried to watch the Stones a few times live....plenty around on Netflix and Tubi.....booooooooooooring.....so was Keef Richards book....a drop kick that got lucky......did watch one doco with Keef while i was doing something else....same same...i just listen to slurred words and wonder is it becasue of the drugs and booze or was he always like that?

 

You know i thought the press here were anal about the footy....they never turn off in the US.....for the first few months after the season ended it was all Tom Brady.....after Free Agency came on it was still Tom Brady... now we have moved on to the Patriots and there coach and there remaining quarterbacks....And dont talk to me about Apple news....talk about Podbga yep hes back.....like if you listen to them the press...hes off to Real yet a bit further down hes staying at Man United, then you hear Juv want him back...then you see Man Untied will sell him at reduced fee......ive stared to skip over this stuff...

 

Great news...Iphone Se hit the shelves today...around $800 well just under, size of the 6 body of the 8 and the get up and go of the 12....meant to hit the sweet spot for people who cant see any reason to spend $2000 on a phone but no 5G.....thats next years big selling point for Apple fans....

Two times the limit: Dog facing charges after leaving car crash

 

https://www.afl.com.au/news/391534/star-dog-set-to-be-charged-after-allegedly-leaving-car-crash

 

Lachie Hunter's licence has been suspended, set to be charged after crash

 

WESTERN Bulldogs vice-captain Lachie Hunter is set to be charged by police after allegedly fleeing the scene of a crash where he is believed to have hit four parked cars while more than two times the blood alcohol limit on Thursday night. 

 

Thankfully, the voice of reason Tom Browne put's it into perpective

Yep, sitting at home on about $250 000 PA after his pay cut must be brutal.

Browne has since deleted the tweet.

That's one bulldog who has some serious wounds to lick.

 

Heading out from home for a few frothies is not exactly deemed a necessary activity during the nation's shutdown, so a $1650 fine has been issued.

 

Vic Pol sure to charge him with Careless Driving, Drink Driving, Hit and Run etc.  He may need to embrace Melbourne's public transport system for 12 months or so before getting the chance to redeem his driver licence.

 

CEO Peter Gordon (a fine legal eagle) will be keen to have a chat with Lachie and whoever else at the club assisted him fleeing the scene.   His suitability as vice-captain may be questioned.

 

Lachie's Dad, a revered Scragger himself, won't be feeling very proud today.

 

Car insurance company will drop his policy like a led zeppelin as alcohol was a contributing factor.    Funds for the repair of five cars at the panel beaters need to be found.

 

As if a lingering hangover is not punishment enough.

"Lachie Hunter shows the pressure we're all under." Really? I know heaps of people who are really struggling at the moment without side swiping four cars while drunk.

Jeez, what pressure?
Should be treated the same as all high range drunk drivers and leave the scene escapers --- slap on the wrist and a good scolding by the judge

What does the Good Doctor @Gazman1 think about this for the club?

 

Speaking of driving infringements , in Queensland now it is a $1000 fine for being on your mobile phone...or touching it... same applies for cyclists

[Will27]

He's making himself look like a bigger dick than he already is by playing the mental heath card.

 

Should've just come out and said he made a bad post and left it at that.

Now trying to defend the indefensible.

No but I can’t be bothered with a twitter barrage. You can’t make a mature point. I don’t need the grief. Players like everyone in the community are doing it tough. It was a point about mental health. There is no excuse for drink driving. He deserves full $5000 player punishment

Eddie would be happy with his club representation for that team

[Will27]

I know a lot of you don't like to change the game too much, but I like the shorter quarters.

I would also like to see a reduction of players on the field.

Thoughts?

 

Play it forward: How Lethal thinks footy should change post-virus

 

https://www.theage.com.au/sport/afl/play-it-forward-how-lethal-thinks-footy-should-change-post-virus-20200419-p54l7m.html

 

AFL clubs should only spend half as much on their football departments as they do on their players, and the league should seize the opportunity to reduce the number of players on the field to 16 a side, according to Australian football legend Leigh Matthews.

 

As the AFL asks its clubs to reimagine football beyond coronavirus by setting out their priorities for a long-term overhaul of the game, Matthews said it was "logical to me to have fewer players on the field" as part of the push to reduce list sizes.

 

"When you ask that question [about the number of players] the only answer seems to be 'because we have always had 18 on the field'," he said.

"The field is the same size as it was 100 years ago and players wore boots they nailed studs into. They are more athletic now, running around basically in spokes. They are faster and bigger.

Footy wages: "What is the average for an assistant coach? $200,000? If they get $150,000 are they not going to do it? But it is all what the market wants to pay, supply and demand.

 

"There is a fair chance the players will have to take a cut and the salary cap come down. Reducing the list sizes reduces player payments but it is the lower-paid players you are losing.

"If the top-paid player earned $800,000 instead of over a million [dollars], do not tell me they would stop playing."
