Just on that, and in particular the unsociable football role Lamb played, I nearly fell off the couch yesterday afternoon while watching the Sunday Footy Show when Kane Cornes of all people started to pot Lamb for his tactics. Geeezus talk about pot, kettle, black zone. He was the biggest in that department than any other PA player on record. What a hypocrite/flog.

Likewise.
Cornes repeatedly saying when trying to justify is puny point...'it's just not a good look...' words fail me, hang on, no they don't - Kane 'C0ckhead' Cornes!
Only our ruthless best, from Board to bootstudders will get us no. 17

Since when has Citizen Kane become so concerned about the aesthetics of the game?? What a buffoon...... : :

Hang on... hear that? It's Orson Welles bellowing from the heavens... 'bound to be a c0ckhead somewhere who degraded the name, Kane.'

Clarkson in his press conf was starting to whinge about Sicily not getting free kicks! Even he acknowledged that was a bit rich coming from the dawks. Amazing that he would even come close to complaining about rough treatment to a team with Luke Hodge in it.
Anyway... their problems are many.... Hodge & Gibson definitely gone.
Next year:
Burgoyne 36
Roughead 31
Frawley 30
Birchall 30
Smith 30
Stratton 29
Puopolo 30
Henderson 29
Cyril 29
Dad's army. I'd don't think there's much point in going on with Burgoyne. What's the point in keeping a 36 y.o. when you're miles off it?
They are so far off their bottom out yet they've already dropped off a cliff. Made worse by trading out all their draft picks for 2 years for a bloke with 1 balsa wood knee and Mitchell... good player but not the most damaging. At a time when they needed to be realistic about their list and aggressively trade out for draft picks just like they did when they built their good team.
Let's hope they trade out more picks this offseason. Will set their next premiership window back another 2 or 3 years.

.................................................
I think his comments are fair enough. The AFL made noises earlier in the season about penalizing the aggressor rather than the recipient, but as it always is with the AFL, they went off the boil on that pretty quickly.
Sicily was certainly entitled to a few frees. I thought Clarkson was honest and open in his presser.
