I knew there was a Father-Daughter rule, but I never even considered a Mother-Son rule ... granted I'm going to be a loving dinosaur by the time that could be a thing, but I assume it could be a thing?

On further investigation I was wrong, there's a father-son rule and a father-daughter rule, but the AFL has only 'considered' mother-son and mother-daughter rules, presumably in no rush because we're still 5-10 years away from it mattering

Seeing a lot of people ripping into Heeney on social media for right wing/fascist/MAGA views ... but not actually seeing what it was he said. Not that I'd be surprised or doubt it, but strange so many people are on about it without anyone actually saying/showing what he's done?

Apparently he didn't say or post anything, someone just noticed he follows a bunch of Trump/MAGA/right wing insta pages and added 2 and 2 together

"Smartest man in the AFL" Reilly O'Brien is a big Jordan Peterson fan, so as you'd expect if you ever went to a private high school with a football program the AFL is a shallow pool

I guess if you're following one or two its excusable if you ended up unfollowing (insta definitely force-followed a few people I 100% did not follow) but if its a whole bunch of them, then, well, yeah..

I keep hoping against hope that maybe that was a phase that he's grown out of, since Reilly actually seems like a really decent guy, does a bunch of advocacy work for mental health challenges in school children, etc. Hard to square with being a fan of Jordan Peterson, of all people.

If it had been a 2019 thing I could maybe believe that he was just following Peterson for the "try to get your life in order" type of stuff, but it was 2023 when he was photographed with him... by then, he should have known exactly what sort of person JP is.

He's likely a decent enough person who in days gone past would just vote Liberal and be done with it. However they get conned by this idea of "powerful people" and either take a blind eye or just arent smart enough to see the damage to people that these conmen are committing.

I know a (thankfully small) amount of people who have praised trump despite the writing on the wall. These are otherwise charitable and pleasant people but they are just so incredibly blessed by their position in life that they cant see how good the society around them is at both propping them up and insulating them against actual hardship. Yet they will back people who actively are tearing out their own support structure. It boggles my brain for sure.

The Dees are just so toothless. No connection, no confidence in themselves or each other, the only time they do anything potent is generally due to little moments of individual brilliance or luck against the flow of play.

There was a period where Melbourne looked like they were about to run over the top of us, and they should have, and then they just totally stopped. The team on paper is still good. Melbourne *should* be a good team, there's just something wrong and yeah maybe it is Goodwin. I hate always pinning everything on the coach but it feels like its the most obvious next move
