Well 2 months to get fkn fit - physically and mentallyThe Fireman wrote: ↑Sun 22 Mar 2020 5:14pm Todays insipid performance certainly takes the edge off it.
Another 2nd half like that and Ratten should be shown the door
The buck stops with him and the match committee
Picking undone players no matter the seniority should not be accepted

Not sure how fit the players will be if they’re training on their own.Devilhead wrote: ↑Sun 22 Mar 2020 5:27pmWell 2 months to get fkn fit - physically and mentallyThe Fireman wrote: ↑Sun 22 Mar 2020 5:14pm Todays insipid performance certainly takes the edge off it.

Makes sense now.
3 weeks is a long time in footy.

Yeah it will be all good by 1 June.

If there needs to be a financial rationalisation after all this, hopefully the AFL does the right thing and winds up GCS and GWS.

True, but Harvey was a freak. I doubt there’s too many players with his drive.Devilhead wrote: ↑Sun 22 Mar 2020 9:07pmI remember one Robert Harvey used to train on his ownremboy wrote: ↑Sun 22 Mar 2020 7:13pmNot sure how fit the players will be if they’re training on their own.Devilhead wrote: ↑Sun 22 Mar 2020 5:27pmWell 2 months to get fkn fit - physically and mentallyThe Fireman wrote: ↑Sun 22 Mar 2020 5:14pm Todays insipid performance certainly takes the edge off it.

Re: AFL suspended until at least May 31
The probability we are playing footy in 2 months is about the same as me booking a cruise to Italy on the Diamond Princess.
The rest of Australia can wander mask-free, socialise, eat out, no curfews, no zoning, no police rings of steel, no illogical inconsistent rules.

Re: AFL suspended until at least May 31
The question is will the AFL survive?
IF it does it will be courtesy of the State Government underwriting the loans it will be seeking from banks.
Reliant on the revenue steams it relies on, including Media Rights from an Industry also under siege, and needing to keep Clubs afloat, the pack of cards is being exposed.
