I worked for News LTD until I retired (not a journalist was a bean counter) but I have a couple contacts still in News who I send through questions on stats and they have access to champion data

Not named to play this week! And I bet he won’t be named in the team for the match against Hawthorn, either.

He’ll be selected against Port hopefully
Let’s hope the result is the same as last time they played a month or so ago
While they keep selecting Grundy there opponent is in the match
Just face facts the player who was at one stage during 2017/18 a half decent player
Since he signed what is now known as the worst deal in AFL history he hasn’t played a half decent game yet and all he cares about is checking his man bun, painting his finger nails and sulking when being calls out by coaches. It’s a pattern
Wright should get a statue built in his honour for getting rid of the spud and giving us a chance to win a premiership

^I wonder what our team could have been if we'd have kept Witts instead of Grundy. Oh well.

^ slow and soft.

He was asking about Witts not grundy

Theres a old saying
One man’s trash is another's treasure
Sweet has become that to port
I actually felt a little sorry and a lot embarrassed for grundy last night
Sweet not only beat him soundly and consistently he also was the recipient of multiple free kicks because soft grundy couldnt handle the physicality Sweet brought
Grundy is a fraud. He is getting a grand final appearance despite being one of ports best 3 players last night
Did you listen to the former players after the game last night ?
Comments like soft under belly, non competitive, the biggest impediment to Sydney's chances to win a flag
When a player like Mills likely misses out on a chance to play in GF day and grundy gets a chance you winder if there is a football god at all
If Brisbane win over Geelong go and put some cash on the Big O for a norm smith because history tells us he will own Grundy
What would Sydney give right now to have a Sweet in there team instead of the spud grundy

Thor thanks you for your concern but suggests you might want to wait until about 6 pm next Saturday before offering condolences. He is just trying not to get ahead of himself, at the moment, worrying about the prospect of back to back flags.

Surely you can’t call him Thor any more. Was there a Marvel character who took a bag of gold and then lost his super powers? Seems more fitting.

I thought “best ruckman ever” was a bit impersonal, hence “Thor”.

Did they call Simon Madden Thor? Can’t remember

Remember the magical moment in the 1990 second semi when he and Kickett got pickpocketed by the great Scotty Russell? That’s when Madden lost Essendon the Grand Final - his tragically poor display in the actual Grand Final was just icing on the incompetence cake. I’ll try to find the video.

Yep, here ‘tis:

I wonder, did Madden get a goal assist for that mark and handball?

Grundy will think it's Xmas come early next week; Big O dislocated shoulder twice in win over hand baggers, not looking promising.
Looks like it's Darcy Fort to assist Daniher in ruck.

Oh, and suck a KFC size bucket of shit Geelong.
