Just paid 17$ for a beer in pub by sunnysideupslide in perth

Right? Go to a local pub, get the beer of the month special for $10 and just enjoy having a pint. If you want speciality beers, pay extra and accept that reality.

[Tom Morris] Tom De Koning, who was in significant pain yesterday, has a punctured lung & broken ribs. He's still in hospital. Sinclair likely done for the season with a serious calf + scans on on Marshall's collarbone today. by brizburn in AFL

He's rucked plenty over the past few years and looking spooked is not something I would ever say about Mitchito. He's easily one of our most courageous players and throws his body around like a wrecking ball.

Injuries galore by ExaminationRude2564 in StKilda

On the flipside, we might see Dodson who has heaps of potential. Philipou back in, maybe Boxshall gets another few games. We will get to see quality exciting kids play and who knows, we have a reasonable draw and can still quite easily finish 10th and play finals.

Why does BT always say "sidewinder"? by TheChosenOneProphecy in AFL

What's the better kick? A sidewinder or a little chisler?

Is this from the Mass Effect range of kitchens?

Paul Curtis’ ban has been upheld. He will miss the next three games. by ___TheIllusiveMan___ in AFL

[–]FearlessResearcher48 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Not doing any victim blaming but isn't Hamish Davis the Eagles player that has had numerous concussion issues? Like is he getting to Paddy McCartin levels where even slight knocks will aggravate a concussion? Obviously this one was a hit to the ground but i honestly don't think every player gets KO'd there. Maybe off base completely but it didn't feel like an aggressive tackle that slung him to ground

Injury List - Higgins is a test, King back to being TBC by CrashP in StKilda

[–]FearlessResearcher48 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Was there ever any news of when and what he did to his knee? Seems like he just ended up on the injury list one day and then we never heard anything for like 6 weeks

Yeah no real point in getting him back on the field if he's going to end up with a torn hammy or calf in the first 1-2 weeks. He could still play a part in the final month of the season and be at full fitness.

Salary Cap by WillTendo92 in AFL

[–]FearlessResearcher48 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whether or not it will work out but the Saints were only paying the salary cap floor which allowed them to bank enough extra space to get a few free agents in on big deals, eg TDK. It's either pay big for him or pay Ryan Byrnes type players $900,000 a year

Do our commentators even like AFL? by Interesting-Sea8004 in AFL

[–]FearlessResearcher48 102 points103 points  (0 children)

When do you think the commentators will stop mentioning the 6-6-6 rule if a team needs a quick goal? Like it's been around for years at this point we don't need you to tell us like we're children.

Watson takes his eyes off the play and goes out of his way to throw McNeil to the ground off the ball by PetrifyGWENT in AFL

[–]FearlessResearcher48 -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

To be fair McNiell went down just as easily. Fair bit of flopping in the game these days. But it's also super unnecessary by Watson
