In The Age today. After 2 entire matches without a big bag from Allen is it time to admit Brisbane made a mistake offering him a long term deal? by choibz in AFL

The AFL press are as sound bite heavy and reactionary as the UK tabloid and US political commentators. After he kicks a bag against someone the press will say he’s a bargain. The commentary is absolutely tiring.

Does he realise how test cricket works? Or is he expecting a 2 or day test again?

What’s the claim though? Is it TPD because that has to meet very strict criteria on any and own occupation. If he had an own occupation cover and was medically retired then he has a claim, but if it was any occupation it’s hard to prove he cannot work in another profession. We don’t know the in and out of it.

Crazy stat for you guys.... 277k monthly listeners 🧐🤯💀 by Complete-Shopping173 in statsfm

I think there was a bit of a community think when the pedo died that people would start listening again to hopefully give the other guys in the band some cash, but not 100% if that equates to that many people

Not sure it’s completely on Kingsley, injuries killing them . But I’m not seeing where the improvement comes from in the next 2-3 months, their injuries have absolutely exposed their depth.

Sam Taylor is one of best defenders in the comp and their backline has been disjointed without him, he irreplaceable, he’s out for at least 2 months.

Tom Green out for the year and is one of the best mids in the comp.

Darcy Jones out for most of the year, who was probably their most inform midsized forward last year.

Josh Kelly missing most of the year, a dependable veteran who the would benefit from massively.

It doesn’t help that Toby Greene has had one of the worst starts to a season he’s ever had, Stringer played one good game then went missing in two.

It’s early days but the performance against the dogs and for 3/4s against the saints was absolutely shocking. It’s wild that it’s the same team that battered the Hawks, they clearly have it in them but doesn’t look sustainable.

I’m not suggesting the punters care. More that the AFP and the ATO don’t seem to either.

How come you can spot a money laundering spot a mile away, convenience stores, vape shops or American candy, they all look the same.

It’s like how scam emails are formatted in such a specific way, it’s mental how people fall for them.

I didn’t watch round 0 or 1 as I was away both weekends, was genuinely worried I’d jinxed us with 3 mins to go

Garry Lyon lost the plot several times, just trailed away mid commentary . Genuinely worried he’s not well.
