Does anybody know the record for the most hit the posts,  both team and individual.  Surely Cotrell x 3 must be close

Graeme Atkinson published a book in 1982 called Everything You Ever Wanted To Know About Australian Rules Football But Couldn't Be Bothered Asking. It's certainly well out of date, but has the following records. I can't vouch for its accuracy :

Most posters by a team :
11 Footscray 6, Carlton 5 (1936)
10 Richmond 7, Fitzroy 3 (1924)
10 Collingwood 4, Melbourne 6 (1937)
9 Sth Melb 8, Geelong 1 (1920)

Most posters by Individuals :
7 V.Banbury (Footscray) vs Pt.Melb VFA 1912
4 A.Pannam (Coll) vs Geelong 1936
4 R.Rahilly (Fitz) vs St.Kilda 1911
4 K.Farmer (Nth. Adel) vs West Torrens SANFL 1930

Anyone else find 'Happy Weitering' a bit scary. :D  :D

Seriously, over multiple interviews he seemed absolutely thrilled with the result and the performance of some of the youngsters, especially Dean.
Even saw him having a deep and meaningful with Young.
Didn't look like someone the least bit interested in moving to another club.

Talk of Weitering wanting a trade, the club wanting to trade him and/or his alleged demoralising presence in our backline is just baseless "supporter" speculation.

Weitering hates losing games and one-on-one contests but he has never been one to hide his emotions when we win or when one of his teammates does well.

It was quite moving seeing Weiters and Crippa leading the team into the rooms last night  :'(

The long term forecast is for rain, which doesn't suit us. We've lost our last two at the MVG in inclement weather, but we also didn't have our ruckman. Hopefully, we can turn that around this time.

Rain is a disaster. Then again the hawthorn conditions were next level so as long as it not terrestrial rain should be ok

I reckon he along with Cripps and Walsh are loving the fact that they no longer are carrying the burden of the teams fortunes alone. The youngsters that have stepped up along with the new recruits have reinvigorated the rest.
