Are ideals confined to this deformed experiment upon a noble purpose, tainted, as it is, with bargains and tied to a peace treaty which might have been disposed of long ago to the great benefit of the world if it had not been compelled to carry this rider on its back?

WHAT DOES DISPOSED MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Disposal

A disposal occurs in Australian rules football when a player either kicks or handballs the football. A disposal is not counted if a player fumbles or illegally disposes the ball. A correct handball is when the football is punched with a clenched fist. When commentating or reporting on Australian rules football, it is common to report the number of disposals that a player has during a game. The words possessions or touches are used interchangeably with disposals in this context. In recent years, the number of disposals in a game has increased substantially, with many high disposal records being set. This can be attributed to teams' placing greater emphasis on maintaining possession, rather than just on going forward at any cost.
