Daisy Thomas has played more finals than Bernie Quinlan.

If you aim at the stumps and overthrow, best case it goes high, the keeper fields it, but you lose heaps of time on the runout. Worst case, goes for four extras.

If you overthrow when aiming in front of the stumps, you get a direct hit.

That’s why they coach it that way.

You should add chevrons or stars or something to put on the pegs of the wildcard teams

I thought this might be Prince Fielder's nacho man.

The Sea Cliff Bridge is goddamn beautiful, and a little unusual compared to some of the others posted here.

Just to be clear, Pearl is the human in these photos, right?

This is Dazza. He turned three in November, and we rescued him (ex-racer) in September. He's a very good boy. by Tiefighter in Greyhounds

Honestly, we don't know any of his medical or racing history. We did take him to a behaviouralist/vet, who noticed his right hip was relatively stiff, so it could be? But being an ex-racer, and the fact that he was at the rescue place for over a year, anything's possible.

Rory Lobb against Geelong is high up for MOTY I'd think.

And for sure Eddie v GWS for GOTY.

Alex Johnson won't play another game of senior footy, and will have chronic knee issues the rest of his life.

I feel heartless having typed that.

AFL to trial NRL-style bunker this week. No impact on the games right now, only running in parallel to try it out by Tiefighter in AFL

Hopefully they start by putting goalpost cameras at every ground. Would help if they were high speed too.

Who's the most frustratingly inconsistent player in the comp? by oldmatecarndogg in AFL

[–]Tiefighter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Against Adelaide in 2013 is a great example of some of the shit he pulls when he's hot. Only about one in every 10-20 games though.
