Pretty sure the Johnson offer was made with almost no time left in the transfer window and Johnson rejected it without really taking much time to think about it. Was supposedly a 5 year deal in which he'd play as long as he could then transition to coaching when his body was cooked.

The way I've seen the situation described it sounds like he just dislikes western medicine or something. Yeah I don't think it's to do with his dad, he's just a bit of a mentalist. He used to get a concussion test after every single game when he was at Geelong. He is also way into paleo and has to have his steaks cooked with specific oils when he eats out, etc.

You Am I posted:That's why Geelong never wanted GAJ as a captain, which I sure was one of the reasons why he went to GC (and Bomber Thompson white anting the gently caress out of him) because he'd be the captain. He never seemed like the leadership type when he was at Geelong but he seems to have developed it since going to the GC. I don't think he was as nutty at Geelong either, that seems to have ramped up in the last couple of years.

thepokey posted:I think the saints deserved the 2009 more than the 2010 one. They had that absolutely dominant year and I remember tipping them in the GF. Then in 2010 I was surprised they got as close to a draw as they did, the replay game was how I was expecting the first game to go. St Kilda probably should have won in 09, but Geelong should have won in 08. Adelaide finished first in 05 and second in 06 and didn't make a grand final either year e: Gough Suppressant posted:Roos has gone on the record saying the substitute rule is total bullshit, joining Walsh and Beveridge. Pendlebury said he agreed with Roos too. I hate seeing a kid in their first game start as the sub. They usually come on and don't have time to work their way into the game at all.

gay picnic defence posted:No it doesn't. The team that can deploy their sub tactically late in the 3rd to replace the player of their choosing still gets a massive advantage over the team that is forced to sub off a player for injury. It has just changed how teams get completely hosed. As Roos correctly says it was bought in to slow the speed of the game, and now we have the interchange cap we don't need it and might as well get rid of it. Wasn't it brought in because when a player went down injured early in a game it was virtually impossible for the team with one less on the bench to win? Subbing on a fresh player with a quarter to go is still an advantage but it's a much smaller one.

Basically the further left, the more defensive a team is. How are West Coast so high? They've beaten the two worst teams and GWS

gay picnic defence posted:This poo poo is becoming a joke. The AFL should introduce a 'loyalty bonus' or something that can be paid to one club players outside the cap. When you have people unironically saying 'if he stays' when discussing young stars things have probably gone too far. This is kind of what the veterans list is now. Players who have been at a club for 10 years get ~$120k paid outside the cap iirc.

Volkerball posted:There's no way Prestia's not involved in this. There's just not. I'd put my money on Matera too. I'd bet Harley Bennell loves it. Diet Crack posted:That's not really the case at all. There were atleast 2 teams worth of A grade players after the draft, they've just all been picked up due to injuries or swapped out from bad drafting or swapping for people who are in form. A lot of UF is getting your team set in the first 3 weeks then managing it. I probably got rid of about 6 players in the first 2 alone. It's a little unbalanced at the moment due to the comp size - if we had 16 I would've restricted positions that can be played (ie. only a back on your bench can sub for a back.) The onus is also on you to.. yknow.. show up for the draft and actually play, otherwise yeah.. it's not going to work out so well. You also get players like Max Gawn popping up mid-year (first game round 10, averaging 93 in his 3 games). I thought I was stuffed when Mumford went down but he's been a decent replacement. Making it a keeper league next year would be good too.

The Deadly Hume posted:On the week-by-week adjustments Geelong and Collingwood are actually dead even (since it kind of reflects the last few weeks' form), which is what you see on the worm and the x-y graph, but on the seasonal ratings Collingwood are about a goal ahead. I mean, Collingwood's current percentage is 114.92 and Geelong's is 98.24, that'd be why. Yeah that's fair enough. I think we're a good chance to win the games against the Pies and Sydney (unless they regain form dramatically next week), that should give us a decent shot. Overall I think we've been alright this season considering how many injuries we've had, particularly in areas that we weren't strong in to start with. Not having any easy double up games also hasn't helped (Hawks, Pies, Sydney, North and

You've done it now. Shmoses posted:I reckon the only game we've lost that we should have won on paper was Melbourne - we're about where we should be imo. It'll be the hard double ups that cost us finals, which makes sense given we significantly overachieved to get to the top four last season Definitely, and it's even more annoying watching Melbourne play terribly every game since. Going into the finals without a proper ruckman made it look a bit more that way. I'm looking forward to getting a soft draw next year though!

Rivers is pretty dissapointing, his form is still good and he's only 29-30 Rivers' is still good, his body (knee?) is just shot I think. I hope Enright goes again if he feels his body is up to it, he's been better this year than he was last year. Stokes is another one I doubt will go on.

thepokey posted:Also, totally another topic, but trading future picks (of one year in advance) comes in this trade period? I'm a bit ignorant to how it works but, could you not have a scenario where, for example, Brisbane who everyone expects to be poo poo for ages, trades their first round draft pick for next year to a club, and that club believes that Brisbane will finish bottom or second bottom so they should be in for a good pick. But then Brisbane surprises the hell out of everyone and makes the finals and suddenly that pick goes from being pick 1 or 2 to pick 14 or 15...is that just bad luck for the club that trades that pick with Brisbane? They could do stuff like x player for a team's 2nd round pick if it falls within the 20-30 range OR first round pick if it falls later than that.
