@RalphyHeraldSun Fawcett had ice on his hamstring in last quarter, so probably unavailable

Let’s just remember - Grace is an activist who took her own pain and stood up to the ugliest side of humanity. She isn’t a MAFS contestant. She owes nobody anything. and idgaf- she will always be a hero to me and so many.

Dear @TeamYouTube

My 15 year old YouTube channel with 3.04k subscribers has been wrongly terminated as in breach of your "spam, deceptive practices and scams policy".

I use the channel exclusively to post podcast interviews and recently a new, two years in the making video series, and daily shorts about economics, philosophy, and govt.

This is all high production value with original music that Brian Eno was kind enough to write for the series. Shorts are mostly face-to-camera.

I've read your rules carefully, and broken none.

I have appealed and it was denied after barely 24 hours.
I am sure I only need to get this before a human and the error will be clear to them. If it isn't they can tell me what we've done wrong and I'll immediately fix it.

My DM's are open if you wish to continue there.

Cheers,

Nicholas Gruen

Absolutely mystifying cancellation!

Nick is one of the good guys, and his channel is a voice of reason at a time when 'reason' is becoming increasingly scarce

Bring back Nick!!

@rohan_connolly She's completely at home and at ease, and very natural. Knows what she's talking about and she comes across as a good person and very reasonable.

[Dillon @CrealyP]

@KateSalemme @codeaflau @superfooty As I said, Richmond will get something for Grace Egan. For a player we didn't want, getting pick 38 for her is definitely a decent trade. In fact, I would say pick 38 is above her real value, because she has numerous flaws as a player.

[Dillon @CrealyP]

@RichmondWomens @MilwaukeeToolAu Come on down Chloe Bown.

[Dillon @CrealyP]

@not_that_CK @Tigers_of_Old Brennan is no longer top tier. Seymour got injured, and Miller below her best this season. Egan had a poor season except at the end, and Hosking is a good battler. We have probably the worst u23 talent in the comp and a very mediocre coaching staff.

[Dillon @CrealyP]

@BFtigercast No thanks.

[Dillon @CrealyP]

@AlexJDonnelly Yes! The difference in quality is dramatic and the AFL needs to urgently do something about it.

[Dillon @CrealyP]

@KateSalemme @codeaflau @superfooty So Richmond have never said she has been delisted. She has been asked to explore her options, which doesn't exclude her being on their list next year. Are you prepared to say that you jumped the gun?

[Dillon @CrealyP]

@AFL @aflwomens 9 of the 42 are Irish, I believe. That's an amazing stat. It makes a mockery of Richmond not recruiting their first Irish player until this season. The admin at Richmond must be held accountable.

[Dillon @CrealyP]

@WPRaskell @JulianStevens95 Richmond actually haven't announced anyone. This is a media statement, not by the club. Many others will have been told the same thing and have performed worse than Grace, but she has trade currency and is a limited footballer. Our midfield requires more.

[Dillon @CrealyP]

@JulianStevens95 She is slow, with poor decision making and poor disposal. She can win the ball but that's about it. Not creative or damaging, and regularly turns the ball over, and is not a goal-kicking mid. A bold decision. Now plenty of others to go, not just players

[Dillon @CrealyP]

@wcebfpod That's the difference that a good footy boss, a very good coach, and a good back up team of coaches, can make on a women's program. Richmond have none of the above, and the second oldest list.

[Dillon @CrealyP]

@BAFLD Do you have the faith that they will make the necessary hard decisions? I'm not so sure. Sheahan, Ferguson must go; spend more of the cap, and hit the draft hard. Stop trading for mediocre players, and raid the Irish! We need young talent desperately.

[Dillon @CrealyP]

@rfcswallace Kate Sheahan is the heart of the problem. Poor trading and drafting choices over many years. No Irish players until now. We don't spend enough of our footy dept cap. Very mediocre coaching team. Allegedly the 2nd oldest team and bereft of quality young talent

[Dillon @CrealyP]

@kateemac9 The Irish women are a tour de force in the AFLW. Some clubs have invested heavily and some clubs have been tardy and neglectful.
