Robert Heatley Stand / Re: AFL Rd 15 2025 Post-Game Prognostications Carlton vs North Melbourne
Promised myself at age not to pull the violin out - I used to watch foot ballers at Princess Park as a kid , sad days were I am watching athletes (instead of footballers) who can't kick or handball on the non preferred let alone miss time after time set shots . Barassi and the like would have there guts for dinner were the player would eyeball the ump before he blew the whistle on the contest decision. Even on defeats back in the day more often than not you would see some magic / poetry through the game and exit the ground with some pride. Do I or anyone have the answer right now ?    Bring in a hard nut if you dont like it p off.

Robert Heatley Stand / Re: AFL 1st Semi Final Carlton vs Melbourne Post Game Prognostications
first time post - walked this path many times over the years (first Blues memory 68 grand final)
as much as it sounds painful - there is an old saying a half fit so and so is better than a fully fit so and so.
l have seen this happen many times with all AFL clubs only to pay the consequences.
there are some banged up boys right now who will be going into next week game not fully fit - anyone had a broken nose or a dislocated shoulder (l can see Zorko lining up Patty Cripps nose) l don't think a jab will rectify .
should the board go completely left field and rest them and play a fully fit team -  or run the risk of a 60 point lose next week.
l don't know.
