Why won't they show us the "down the ground" footage from behind the goals? I'll tell you why... Because Hewett's kick which was marked by Cotterell deflected off Aish's outstretched arm by about one metre. It was an absolute howler of a non-decision from the umpires. Incredible that none of...

Katter's Australia Party proposes outback Queensland camps for young offenders https://www.abc.net.au/news/2023-08-21/katter-party-proposes-outback-young-offender-camp/102755716 Young offenders would be forcibly relocated to outback detention camps for "intensive rehabilitation" under a...

Classic hanger today by Jacob Koschitzke over Aliir Aliir I liked how he didn't use any hands on the shoulder to assist. Just leaped straight up onto Aliir's shoulders, hung there and grabbed it cleanly...

The debate over the overrule of the goal umpire has overshadowed how terrible and costly Lynch's miss was. What a blunder! He is normally a very straight kick. He was on an angle but only 5 metres from goal. The multi-million dollar forward had the chance to ice the game, but he choked and...

50 idiots were ejected from the MCG during the game. Numerous brawls and anti-social behaviour. Pfft... Yep, another typical blockbuster Saturday night at the MCG from competing big 4 clubs. Well done, you feral dickheads among the Richmond and Essendon fans who can't hold your grog, can't hold...

Apparently the Gabba timekeepers stuffed things up and stopped the clock for 20 seconds longer than they should've halfway through the last quarter. "Bulldogs wuz robbed!" is the catch-cry from the media. But I disagree. Swings and roundabouts, I say... What about Round 2 when the Lions were...

‘He realised straight away’: Hawkins risks missing qualifying final after dangerous tackle https://www.foxsports.com.au/afl/teams/geelong-cats/afl-2021-tom-hawkins-dangerous-tackle-on-darragh-joyce-geelong-vs-st-kilda-video-incident-match-review-news/news-story/16452d3806dec072ea07f11b448e7d5d...

It might've been mentioned in the match thread already, but I thought it warranted its own thread. Collingwood scored a goal!!! Brodie Grundy managed to score one from a boundary throw-in the second minute of the 3rd quarter.

So what's everyone's verdict on the AFL's website in 2020 ? I think it sucks. The content is terrible. There is hardly anything on there worth reading or worth watching. Almost no articles worth reading. No decent analysis. No decent interviews or bio puff pieces. No real attempt to further...

Can any of you history buffs help me out with this...? I was looking at past All Australian teams, the old ones based on the State of Origin games in the 1980's. Something didn't really add up with the players listed for 1986. For starters, there are 23 players named, not the expected 20...

I remember seeing the 'Show Ignored Content' function occasionally at the bottom of the page of a thread. I'd then hover the cursor over it - see who it was and make a quick decision whether to click on it and view their post or just carry on to the next page. Once I clicked on it, the posts...

http://www.afl.com.au/news/2018-06-08/top-cat-purring-as-umpires-biggest-pet IT'S OFFICIAL: Joel Selwood is the umpires' pet. At least that's what the numbers tell us. Using statistics supplied by Champion Data, AFL.com.au looked at the current players with the best and worst free kick...

Turns out the boys told a porky pie. It wasn't tape from their kit bag. It was sandpaper. Which is what we all knew it was straight away, but we quickly bought their bullshit story in the "sorry" press conference. Tape would be mildly excusable - a premeditated act of cheating, but something...

I know it's only Round 1 and people always get carried away (both positive and negative) after one round, but I'm calling it now. GWS will finish on top of the ladder, win both home finals and win this year's Grand Final. Richmond, Sydney, Adelaide, Port, Geelong, Essendon and Melbourne fans...

The cream rises to the top Go Hawks :) When the going gets tough, the tough get going

I'm having trouble searching for old posts It's either drawing a blank, or coming up with piss poor results (e.g. only 2 matches for generic words which should have 100s of pages of matches) Anyone else having the same problems ?

The umps blatantly gifted them a flag last year and now it appears they want to go B2B 3rd quarter - Free kick and goal to Trav Cloke in the goal square kept them in it. Defender's arm was draped around his midriff. Holding the man? :huh: Really? Why don't they pay that the other 300 times it...

I've only just noticed that the "Essendon Doping Scandal" Board has been shut down. 1) I was wondering if all the thread discussions were moved to somewhere else, merged with another forum, or if they've simply been deleted. There were many things posted on there which I would've liked to use...

http://www.afl.com.au/news/2016-09-11/swan-dan-hannebery-admits-giants-were-harder-than-us You know you're in trouble when your toughest on-baller gets ironed out by Stevie "Enforcer" Johnson and everyone leaves it up to that big ponce Franklin to try to even the score. :$ Hard to believe the...

Dear sirs, I have 2 complaints/constructive suggestions 1) I was given a thread ban earlier today. I can see the "you have insufficient privileges" message, but there was no alert given. I'm still none the wiser what I did to offend. I was measured and on-topic. :confused:??? For the sake of...

Dwayne Russell has picked the 'clash of the titans' from 2009 as one of his most memorable matches… It was one of the most anticipated H&A games ever and actually lived up to the hype. Both teams undefeated, 12-0 Saints have kicked the first three goals - weird, but I remember it as being goal...

I've had feedback from various mods how they don't have time to read through every thread and how they rely on us users to self-regulate via the "report" post function. More often than not, there will be a string of posts which should be deleted. Maybe 5 or 6 posts from one troll. Or pages and...

Hi there, Not sure if this is a widespread problem, or just me. It doesn't seem to matter what filters I use. I keep getting this message: The search could not be completed. Please try again later. It's been like this all day. I've never had any difficulties with the search engine before...

Joel Selwood, the Invisible Man Mark Blicavs is going dressed up as a ruckman Steve Johnson still selling tickets to the Stevie J Show, but times are tough, his act is old hat and the crowds aren't what they used to be

It's going to be quiet times in Sleepy Hollow over the next six weeks. Many of you Geelong fans won't know what to do with yourselves. Here's a few suggestions… Get along to the game next weekend and give an appropriate farewell to your soon-to-be-sacked bunch of old hacks. The Adelaide...
