So are you saying of all those "Behavioural Adjustment Officers" that are almost exclusively non-anglo are people of sub-contintental and African appearance that were all born here? No. I'm not saying anuything of the sort. I'm actually saying that unless I know that person, I have no ide...

Well I don't think it is racist to question how "Behavioral Awareness Officers" who clearly weren't born and bred here could possibly discern what type of behavior is culturally acceptable when they don't understand our culture - just common sense! Question 1: How do you know they weren't...

I particularly liked this comment from a herald sun reader. "Brian W 6 hours ago Why should McLachlan be surprised that fans feel alienated from the AFL. He constantly lectures fans about what social views are acceptable and acts as though he considers most fans to be racist, sexist, homophobi...

Hopefully he'll get nominated in the next few weeks, agree he's been a strong and consistent contributor this year. Walsh from Carlton is a ball magnet and Port have a few decent rookies. Reckon Battle will be a 200 game player. Battle averages 15 Disposals, 6 Marks, 5 Intercepts and 4 Rebound 50s....

BUT his concern insofar as I understand it was- what assurance do we, the paying public have that the people charged with crowd behaviour management have the understanding and skills to do so fairly. There's no issue with those concerns. Those concerns however have nothing to do with Kennett straig...

Anyone who has lived here more than a few years would know it’s not on for security guard to break up a fight between players.

Stop you’re BS rhetoric

A policeman tried to intervene at Moorabbin one day when Plugger was mauling Neil Cordy.

This bizarre occurrence in some way exemplifies Jeff Kennett's main worry- that the people employed to do crowd control do not know football! How else to explain the action of the security guard? If you have people with no experience of a football crowd, no experience as a fan now attempting to eva...

Backpacker/uni student or according to Jeff “new arrivals” also who have no idea about the game! Poor Jeff copped abuse for being racist saying that, when in fact it was just the correct observation. In any case, a hired security guard has little qualifications and are just window dressing. IF all ...

Why only 2 years?

I get insulted when someone posts a link to the Herald-Sun, assuming I have a subscription to that s***. It's like reading Womans Day, or The National Enquirer. Insulted because someone posted a link regarding a topic you obviously wished to read. Softly softly people! Well yeah. The link is only a...

Sadly, swapping a coach right now, will realistically not be a quick fix.

Given 6 years of terrible strategy and bad habits, it's actually going to take time to rebuild the group.

They will need to relearn how to play a brand of footy that will stand up against good teams in finals.

Paddy flying to the US for further specialist medical assistance with his concussion issues. https://www.theage.com.au/sport/afl/mccartin-flies-to-us-to-seek-help-for-concussion-20190617-p51yix.html I have some assistance for him....when your coach tells you to 'crash the pack', tell him that it's ...

Really showed something at full forward in the last quarter after finally coming back on. Should have had 3 for the quarter. Missed two sitters, and then got a free kick straight in front but advantage was paid to allow Billings to goal. If he kicked 3 for the quarter this would be a very different...

Case in point.

Who comes up with this s***? Terrible.

They need to employ someone full time to work in nicknames.

I'll pay Bubbles.

But Jill is just woeful.

In half a quarter he dominated the game, with Sandy kicking 5 goals.
After he came off they kicked one goal in the next two and a half quarters!

He had one kick didn't he?

What staggers me is that a team with so much change over two weeks was able to "get the system going" after playing half a game of football together. If they could do that in half a game why were they unable to do it in the preceding 18 months? That I think is what confuses and disappoint...

I'm calling bulls*** on that statement. Absolute bulls***.

It's almost literally saying it might happen, but it might not.

Pretty much like everyone.


But my understanding has always been that ACL surgery makes the injured knee thr stronger one.

The only thing that can save Richo now is Winx. If he decides to play the great horse, and the horse is unstoppable, not only will it help us chalk up wins but watch our crowd numbers spike. btw I hope they resist temptation and keep him in the magoos for a bit yet. I think people need to manage th...

I heard people calling Steele 'Man Of' FFS!

Seriously, what have we become!
