This whole thing was a marketing setup? Boss level if it was.
Yes.

From the pre game interview on Triple M (https://www.heraldsun.com.au/sport/...w/news-story/97008a24e88c0c7d4573ce5e883f2ee0):
“To be honest I’ve never been a fan of the media,” he said. “I was the type of player that played. I didn’t like the publicity and I probably still don’t. I’m doing some today for Deliveroo because they’re giving some money to charity. So that’s what I’m about.

Best one of these was the one where some dude won on a scratchie then won again with another scratchie in front of the cameras. I think that one is the gift that keeps on giving to the lottery owners, gets recycled repeatedly.

What are the error margins as we go down the scale of competitions? And the level of competencies of the recorders, and their ability to check their recordings?

Surely, the rankings refer to DT points rather than Supercoach, which are much more complex and unmeasurable by those outside the system.
Meanwhile I paid 757k for some spud to not manage that in 3 weeks...

Give me captain Trent West, strangely I think I've actually said that before as a loophole...

Does anyone know how to ask Swamp Thing a question?

Carlton had 6 players with numbers in the 40's on Sunday (the 6 highest numbered players on the list). Would this have happened before?

For interests sake, they were Gibbons 40, Casboult 41, Saad 42, Setterfield 43, Owies 44 and Cottrell 46.

At a guess, I'd think Essendon would have given it a fair crack in the supplement ban year given half the squad were wearing numbers in that range.

Tag him on twitter is the answer though.
