Cyril looking fit and agile. That goal on the siren from the edge of the centre square was nuts!

Comedian Dave Hughes giving a football lesson to both Carlton and the Diacos' playing out the game with 5 cracked ribs ........ to Carlton this is the way you should play and to the Diacos' don't dive unless you have a darn good reason.

Much respect to Dave ...

Geez Hughesy looks old and frail.
He’s supposedly 53.
Looks 70+
Those hits that must’ve broke his ribs looked like nothing.

To be fair I wouldn't want to take a hit from Goringe, a huge bloke who is still clearly keeping fit, or Mitch Robinson, the same. All 3 are seasoned ex players, with decades of taking that sort bump. Hughes does standup, used to copping a different sort of beating.
Good on him for having a crack. Should get Bob Katter out there next time, see how hard he is.
