One thing that really shits me with Carey is the way the footy media, or most media in general, talk about his "past controversies". They always mention the team mate's wife thing and thats it. Never about glassing a woman in the face

I like the way his excuse for that is "I was just trying to throw a glass of wine over her in a public restaurant and my glass accidentally hit her in the lip. People who know me know I would never be physically abusive." Of course, by "like" I mean "gently caress Wayne Carey."

But I could be very wrong, as I don't remember the exact details.

Why would you throw a glass over someone if not at the very least intending to threaten or intimidate them.

Probably a complete lie, yes. He was trying to skirt the line of "I admit I've been abusive in the past but it was more emotional abuse and intimidation, not being physically violent" which, I mean, yikes. Here is the article: https://www.perthnow.com.au/entertainment/sas-australia-wayne-carey-opens-up-on-infamous-affair-glassing-allegations--c-5642089 quote:“I’m not proud of some of the things that I’ve done but I’ve done a lot of work on myself over the last 10 years and I take ownership of it,” Carey said to the camera before his interrogation begins. Her response: quote:But on Wednesday she disputed Carey’s version of events. cmndstab fucked around with this message at 04:50 on Feb 26, 2022 |

Crows and Melbourne have now put a tiny bit of space between themselves and North and Freo. Go Crows

Fremantle vs Melbourne next week becomes an extremely interesting game. Freo have percentage over Melbourne so it will essentially become a battle for the second spot (and potentially even top spot if Crows lose to Collingwood). It's a shame that round ten looks like being a bit of a fizzer at this stage. Of course there can be upsets, but all of the top six are slated to play teams outside the top six. In particular, Crows, Melbourne and North are playing the bottom three sides. I guess percentage will still be relevant at that point so it might turn into a battle of who can get the biggest win.

Tayla Harris has been in really good form this season, great threat in the forward 50 and can run to create a target coming out of defence too.

Yes, this is the first season she's really lived up to the hype and delivered consistently. Not sure whether that's a result of being a part of Melbourne's system, or if it has just come with maturity.

Yeah I think she's made a huge difference to the team structure, in years past as the Dees would hit the crunch games at the end of the year having an attack focused around Tegan Cunningham felt like it became a liability as she could be taken out of big games, whereas Harris just has a few more weapons as a forward which should help, and she's never been afraid to crash packs even if she's having a quiet game. One concern I see is that the Dees have a few pretty small and lightweight players in their lineup like Mithen, Hanks, Heath and McNamara and I wonder how they will go when the heat is on for a final, but that said Norf have a pretty big physical team and the Dees stood up to them pretty well yesterday.

Poor Perkins, that miss from 20 out directly in front to win the game is going to haunt her. I assume she overthought it after missing the previous shot.

I think it would be a good pickup for Geelong and good for daisy (apart from the drive to/from Geelong-bright every week if she did the same setup she does now). She’s been in Melbourne’s system to some degree since the start of the exhibition matches, and I reckon very few people have benefited from sitting around the same club going from player to coaching.

Is she planning to continue on as a player? Could be awkward when she plays against Geelong. I know the men's and women's teams are separate but still.

If she takes the role as an assistant coach then we all lose her as a commentator.

It's hard to give much of a poo poo about a practice game, it's not like this has real stakes, like an AFLX tournament for example.

Just a heads up (if you're not already doing the AFLW) for the tipping comp which is still the same place, although it's been Disneyfied so you might have to gently caress around with passwords and accounts. https://www.footytips.com.au/comps/SASTips&p=goons

What about Goon Golden Spoon Fantasy Draft Foot The Ball League? Last year we only had 5 entrants, it's probably not worth it, but I had a lot of fun with it when we had 8 for a few years...
