How will they deal with BBB if he darkens their doorstep? One would imagine that there's a fairly hefty sized book loaded into a catapult just waiting for his bald nut to enter the chambers. You're right, Motts, that "this game is all about taking risks" because we do not know what the future will hold. But then there's this thing called probability using past actions and events as a guide for future decisions. That's what we are all agonising about at this time of the year (and then every week during the season) - what evidence do I have that player X will do what I want him to do and not do what I don't want him to do? There is good evidence that Baz will fulfill the first part of this question; the risk lies in the latter. And then there’s the tribunal. How will they deal with BBB if he darkens their doorstep?

I don't think Barry ever consciously thinks 'Screw this, I'll just job this bloke'. Some people sob when they snap. Some swear, scream and yell. Barry whacks blokes. Just comes down to how well he internally manages stress. Riot acts make no difference. I don’t think Barry ever consciously thinks ‘Screw this, I’ll just job this bloke’.

Yes it's a risk but this game is all about taking risks and at the end of the day, even if he does snap, its not going to cost me plenty. At most it will cost me a trade. And given Big Bad Bustling's popularity at the Family Day yesterday, I'd say the biggest penalty the Dogs would impose would be some weeks on the pine. You've just given me an idea for a new article... You’d have to think that Rodney has read him the riot act and I’d be a lot more worried about an angry Rocket than an angry Roosy.

One brain fade - and it won't have to be much - will cost you plenty. Plus, he'll be reaching for a walking-frame by the end of the season. Having said that, I love a story of redemption and endurance and hope he proves me wrong. I'm just not as brave as Rodney and you, Motts. Brave call on the Hall.
