Are you really that surprised Jack?

instead of starting the drill again they probably just continued on as if nothing happened.

Foley went to a trainer midway through the session about his sprained ankle and sort some treatment but he returned about 5-10 minutes to main training so he's thankfully okay.

I wondered about this and his disposal last Thursday.  I know his disposal is not up there with the best but usually it is better than avergae and miles in front of his last game.

I think a strapped or needled ankle may have affected his disposal, I'm not even too sure if his injured ankle is his kicking leg but even if it is the support leg having an injury on that one can affect disposal.

WP said something similar to what you said Chucky during the game last week. That's what it seemed like given Axel made 9 clangers all up :-\. Still if you cross the line you are classing yourself as 100%.

foley has had a history of suspect and bad disposal, it is just a miracle that no one has exposed this til now, but you watch his clanger count mount up this year. im not a big fan of mcmahon, but foley makes more clangers than macca but because he has a loved reputation it gets unnoticed
even tivendale made less kicking errors than foley

Foley makes more errors because most of his disposals are contested and in heavy traffic
Check out Judds effective disposal stats and you will find it's not much better

I think the only person portraying that lately at Tigerfand is you TT, are you a person or an alter ego of someone else

You are the one having a go at Foley over his clanger count, it's actually very common for inside midfielders to have a low disposal efficiency. It's why McMahon had the highest disposal efficiency in the AFL last year during the season despite his massive clangers, because he is an outside player and he always has time to dispose of the ball. Foley is predominantly in the guts in congestion and is disposing in traffic or getting tackled as he disposes of the ball. This was never about comparing Judd & Foley as players, simply explaining why things are the way they are.

Okay no worries comparing the 2 of them and their kicking effieciently is laughable.

Judd is a gun. Number 1 at contested footy in the business and Foley has shown nothing lets be honest. Ive seen Foley rtack up the clanger count and there was not an opposition in sight.

he is not our worst by any means

no one but rfc rate foley  and the longer he plays the more and more his bad disposal will be evident
the only thing foley is good at is winning the ball, but what is the point of winning the ball if you are handing straight to the opposition
opposition teams let foley win the ball, because he rarely rarely hurts teams

Yeah because he is tagged and was chosen to represent Victoria last year for no reason.  ::)

chosen for vic

it was an exhibition game, did i see foley make AA, no and he never will, yet many of you all bag bowden who has twice

typical rfc supporter over rating our players and not seeing the bigger picture

It may have been an exhibitition game but have a look at those teams and tell me they weren't regarded as the best in the game.  ::)
