They were thinking there wasn’t anybody worth taking. Even the guy we wanted that Sydney took isn’t being played, Sydney instead are not playing a genuine ruck. So you could imagine what the next guy must have been like.

And yet you claim the cloud stuffed up by not plucking another ruckman from the state leagues in the mid season draft.
I see you enjoy irony also.

Don’t mind be the idea of flipping Brown and hooker this week. Don’t like hooker as a match on Brown or Larkey. Hurley to Brown, Brown to Larkey. Hooker forward. Getting the matchups for right for wood (if fit) zurhaar and zieball will be more challenging. Likely Falls to some combination of Gleeson, Francis and redman. We’ll miss Ambrose this week I suspect.
Who took Brown on good Friday? I honestly can’t remember
5th separate report. $15k in fines for the year. It’s actually a farce that the system can allow this sort of thing. 5 separate strikes and not rubbed out.

I think that’s not a bad idea. Please stop posting it here, too.

I was only sharing as it had been a request by a few posters. Feel free to ignore those posts 
- Essendon’s Shaun McKernan fined $2000 for striking Jordan Dawson.

Now we just need Heppell to be right for the game - and it’s a pretty strong team!

He’s 10th favourite for brownlow according to TAB.
That would have to be the reason.

Yeah the more I think about and see this incident the more surprised I am. The ball is 5 metres away and travelling in the opposite direction and he goes out of his way to hit another player.
How does it not cop a week?

I guess I’m a bit behind the times on this, but carry over points isn’t a thing anymore?
Nope. Intentional, body contact, low impact always equals a fine, no matter how many times you do it.
No mate. He plays for a tin rattling runt club that nobody care enough about to generate talk back or column inches. Put a black and white jumper on him and it’d be leading every news break.

Because it’s to the body and Gresham was able to play out the game. Even though he was down for ~30 seconds. In reality, you can go around punching blokes in the guts as often as you like and as hard as you like and you’ll never get suspended for it as long as the player doesn’t go off the ground.
Who should we have taken?
And as long as Carlton isn’t providing the injury report.

Bowman going by vfl reports but he would be a long term prospect
On AFL tonight - Heppell is hopeful of returning this week rather than confident. Not sounding the best.
Will be in his moon boot until Wednesday - where he’ll be assessed.

I don’t see the point in risking him
