Pollies are saying that it will take a while for the cut to fuel excise to show up at the pump 'because they've already paid the tax on the fuel they currently have".
That didn't stop retailers IMMEDIATELY increasing fuel prices when the war kicked off though?

@hasumpstuffedup That's the decision you highlight? Umpire was blindsided and made the wrong call. The constant dropping the knees and illegal disposal were bigger issues from a neutral

Yeah, that's an absolute shocker, Weddle has absolutely smashed it.
With hands going everywhere it can be tough, but the way the ball moved it should have been clear Weddle got his fist to it.
Very disappointing #AFL #AFLHawksSwans

McDonald mark (technically paid anyway), then gets the 50 and puts Sydney back in front 👀 #AFLHawksSwans

Jumper rating of 10/10 for #aflhawksswans. No shared colours. No clash. Perfect score 🤩

@CalTwomey If you take the 30 seconds, then no offensive mark can be taken from the kick.
English

Greg Swann brought in seven new rules. He needs an eighth.
The 30-second shot clock has been manipulated for too long. Examples like this Brodie Kemp kick - taking the full time then passing - should see the team surrender the ball.

Mac Andrew “setting a screen or a pick” according to @7AFL
Does he also pick and pop 😹

✍️ The Hawthorn midfield and ruck dilemma for OR
If Hawthorn fail to overturn Jai Newcombe’s 1-match suspension, they will start the 2026 season with a midfield trio of:
Josh Ward
Connor Nash
Connor Macdonald
From 2025, there will be no:
Jai Newcombe ❌
Will Day 🤕
Cam Mackenzie 🤕
James Worpel 👋
So, what’s the plan?
I would be shocked if Sam Mitchell gave a debut to Ollie Greeves. Henry Hustwaite, who had a few opportunities last season, doesn’t seem to be in the coaches current plans. The coach is going to have be creative.
The likes of Sam Butler, Josh Weddle, Nick Watson and Dylan Moore will spend more time in the midfield against the Giants but none of them are “midfielders”, in fact, neither is Connor Macdonald.
I expect Finn Maginness to play whether Newcombe is suspended or not. If Newcombe is suspended, is Maginness a midfield option to run with either Oliver or Callaghan? This will be an interesting watch, as he hasn’t played midfield or a 🔒 down role at AFL level since 2023.
The current number one ruck Lloyd Meek also seems to be struggling with the new ruck rules.
Many Hawks supporters will disagree, but I think Ned Reeves should play against GWS. His tap work is elite and he has improved his “around the ground” work.
Kieren Briggs is not the type of ruck that will hurt Reeves around the ground, like an English or a Grundy type & he would definitely have the advantage over Jake Riccardi, the Giants #2 ruck.
Whether Newcombe plays or not, the midfield will need every advantage they can get, even with Tom Green, Josh Kelly. Toby Bedford and Brent Daniels missing in the middle for the Giants.
What’s your midfield and ruck plan this week @HawksInsiders?

@ScooterMcNeice What did you think of Ballarat @ScooterMcNeice ?

Melbourne's premiership in the @vicpremcricket U18 men's competition, defeating Geelong by 57 runs on DLS. Hit 8-300 (Max Thompson 59, James Rosham 74, Max Parrott 46, Yash Goel 57) and had the Cats 6-163.

@ahleach The team with white in their jumper should be wearing white shorts

Melbourne batting first in the @vicpremcricket men's U18 GF at the Junction ... 0-55, with Max Thompson on 38 and Nikki du Toit on 10. Du Toit made 85 against Camberwell Magpies in the First XI yesterday, putting on 195 with Blake Thomson (151no) for the fourth peg.
English

@BubuSmelsz Why would you add white shorts that has no white ?
The Saints should’ve been in the white shorts.
English

Essendon’s red guernsey isn’t a sufficient clash jumper when playing Saints. They need a third kit which is predominantly white or a dx colour. No other league in the world tolerates this. #aflsaintsdons

🐯The game has now been called off.

@coachcavcam Nothing has changed since 2018 - why would they even start the game at 4:10pm 🤷🏼♂️🤷🏼♂️

It’s honestly a bit strange they’ve ticked off a 4:50 restart. There is clearly still lightning in the exact same places.
Three flashes in the last couple minutes. Odd.

🐯Less than 5 minutes in and they’re off due to lightning. ⚡️
