Fox Playbook looks interesting, tho id prefer there was data to back it up

How many times recently has KL been out left arm around or LBW to pace/spin?

It’s not difficult to add some references is it… #ausvindia

Last Essendon preview of 2025 🆙 on #thebombersblog

80min of footy left for this group, so I say all out attack, not just because of it being the final game, but if there’s a flaw in GC currently, it’s when the game is in motion more than stopped #GoDons
