Robert Heatley Stand / Re: AFL Rd 0R 2024 Pre Game Prognostications Brisbane v Carlton
Lions could go in extra cocky and have been drinking their own bathwater with all the press picking them to be premiers in 2024.
Shame we didnt have all of our key pieces out there but good teams find a way to be competitive and I expect a contest from a Voss coached team and not a capitulation with injuries as excuses..

Fair call, I don’t think we’ll get the win tonight.
I’m concerned that we played our 2 preseason games like the start of last year, not like we finished the year.
If we turn up and play like we ended last year I’ll be happy with any result but right now with our injuries I don’t trust us to turn up and perform.

Imagine playing for a team where the captain doesn’t “appear” to have your back

Innocent unless proven guilty.

It seems that Sam's lawyers are doing what they can to have the charge dismissed. 

She appeared in court via a video link and I believe that only one reporter made the link between the charge and Sam Kerr.  That put paid to the "keep shtum until it goes away" approach, but it nearly worked.

Her future as Matildas' captain would depend on whether she's found guilty and what was actually said.  Of course, a recent official investigation found that "The Metropolitan police is broken and rotten, suffering collapsing public trust and is guilty of institutional racism, misogyny and homophobia."  That's got to tilt the scales of justice Sam's way.

I’m interested in two points, if your captain is accused of racism, how does that affect her team mates, let alone the corporates ?
If her lawyers are trying to get it thrown out of court, she’s guilty…
