Not sure of source credibility, but there is talk that written information is involved (not just a chat between brothers).

I heard they made a diorama and enacted the game plan with figurines.

In lego world Mick Malthouse doesn't have to teach Liam Jones how to jump at the footy either.

When has he ever done that?!?!

Only in LegoLand will Jones ever take a speccy as it's the only way his body could be manipulated by someone else.

God knows he can't will himself to do it through his own eker skill set.

I remember him being paid one against Geelong. He'd dropped it cold but it was paid, so it counts.

Watching some of the replays of matches from the 80's on Fox Footy last week. It would have been paid without debate back then. So would Ablett's mark of the year for that matter. It's probably a thread on its own, but for all the people harking on about getting back to the glory days of 80's footy, it was a terrible spectacle. Free kicks in nearly every contest, blindly bombing the ball high and long whenever a palyer got the ball in traffic, and players routinely squibbing contests to avoid contact. I'm pretty sure I saw a player get a hitout and be paid a mark, and no one even batted an eye lid .

Re: Michael Talia

Agree with this. Watching footy from decades ago, another stark difference is that players were just not conditioned to make repeat efforts consistently. Having seen what players are expected to do unconditionally these days, it is quite frustrating watching players from yesteryear contest a mark, then just stand and watch a nearby contest. Makes you appreciate the games development.
