I do think the opposition can scrag and niggle him better. I guess having Mooney, Rooke etc does put you off but if you can handle the pressure/ hits etc back, why not do it.

A swift whack across the knee should be enough to put Ablett out for a while. In all seriousness that may be the answer. I know in this day and age nobody wants to mention violence but maybe roughing him up a bit is the answer, a couple of big whacks here and there. Pick someone you don't mind loosing for a few weeks and send him out to flatten Ablett every chance he gets. It'll either help or back fire and he runs all over you, which he is probably going to do anyway. On the subject of games, how horrible was the Melbourne v Adelaide game. Admittedly the weather was bad but these guys are professionals and the kicking at goals (from both sides) was dismal. I think the big talking point is how good are Geelong. Brisbane are no easy beats and they blew them of the park. At the moment I honestly can not see anyone even getting anywhere near Geelong. And surprise, surprise, as soon as I don't go watch Carlton they start winning again. How about a crowbar?? A swift whack across the knee should be enough to put Ablett out for a while.
