    Overseas access to ANZAC Day Game

    Hi I'm in New Zealand, and want to see the ANZAC Day game today, or at least hear it on the radio. Damn Sky TV in NZ isn't showing todays game, and is showing Richmond v West Coast this weekend instead. :mad: Which radio stations will be covering todays game, and do any of them have live...

    Grand Final TV Coverage?

    There was a whisper that one of the Australian TV stations might show the International Cup grand final on TV. Is there any truth to this? Even to see it delayed would be awesome on Fox Footy or somewhere like that.

    Favourite Footy Photo?

    For most people their favourite photo will be of their team holding up the premiership cup - but I'm wondering if people have any photos they'd like to share that they particularly enjoyed besides those obvious ones... especially ones that show the high emotions of the players, coaches and fans...

    Postal Address for Collingwood FC

    Can anybody give me the postal address for the Collingwood football club? It's not on the afl.com.au website - or at least it doesn't seem to be. Thanks.

    International Rookies

    What are the rules regarding AFL clubs listing international rookies? I heard that they can be included by clubs outside of the salary cap - is this true? And what criteria do you have to fulfil to be considered "international"? If clubs like Essendon, Collingwood, West Coast and Adelaide...

    Blyth called to play for Swans Reserves

    BIG news. Jeremy Blyth, New Zealand U16's captain from the 2003 Barassi Youth Tournament (where NZ visited Canberra and played against ACT teams and Nauru) has been called up to senior footy. He played 2003 in the Queanbeyan Tigers Under 18's and has spent 2004 in the Queanbeyan Reserves...

    NZ getting AFL on Free-to-air

    Big news for New Zealand - the free-to-air channel "Prime TV" will show AFL matches in their entirety starting from round 11. Each weeks' Friday night game will be played on Saturday morning at 10:30 a.m... so the matches won't be live, but it's a heck of a lot better than nothing. Prime TV...

    Pre-season cup winner in finals

    On how many occasions has the winner of the pre-season cup missed the finals since the pre-season cup began? What about the runner-up? How many times have they missed the finals? Geelong and St. Kilda are both looking good to make the 8 for my money.

    Rules of the Game Question

    A hypothetical situation: Two teams are playing a game - call them Box Hill and Sandringham just for simplicity. Box Hill are leading by 5 points with 1 minute to play in the final quarter. Their fullback has the ball and is ready to kick in after a behind - but he doesn't really want to...

    Who was Colin Tinkernell?

    I know that he was a player from Western Australia. Which club did he play for? For how long (roughly)? Did he ever play for the state team? Someone told me he was the captain of the first WA side to beat Victoria. Is this true?

    Highest Score Ever?

    What's the record team score in a football match at any level? I know that the AFL\VFL high is 37,17 (239) by Geelong against the Bears in 1992, but surely there must be higher ones than this. Post the highest score that has happened that you know of.

    Some changes to the international cup 2005

    What I'd like to see 1. Format of the pools Just for the sake of discussion I'm going to assume 16 teams for the next international cup - it sounds like there should be more in Australia than last time at least. Last time the cup was played there were two pools with the highest team from...

    4 points for a win, 2 points for a draw?

    I tried asking this on the International Board but no-one knew the answer. Maybe the bigger AFL board can come up with some ideas. Why oh why is it that footy teams are awarded 4 points for a win and 2 points for a draw? Surely it would be sensible to award to award 2 for a win and 1 for a...

    4 points for a win, 2 points for a draw?

    Fairly inconsequential, but why oh why is it that footy teams are awarded 4 points for a win and 2 points for a draw? Surely it would be sensible to award to award 2 for a win and 1 for a draw. I suppose you could award 156892 points for a win and 78446 for a draw and you'd get the same result...

    Finding past players' numbers

    Is there any website or something where I can find the numbers that past great players wore? Or even better, lists that show all the past greats that wore particular numbers. I'm looking for great players that wore "8" - there don't seem to be many wearing that number in the AFL today. Did...

    Rankings on TV

    I'm from New Zealand and I recently saw on the AFL highlights show we get over here a box come up during the game with "PLAYER RANKINGS" on it. It listed about 10 players with the usual suspects up the top - Buckley, etc... but I want to know what they use to determine this. Is it disposals? A...

    Live Radio on the Internet

    Is there anywhere on the internet where you can get live AFL coverage over the radio? I know you can go to afl.com.au and get it there if you pay some money, but basically I'm too cheap for that. In 2001 you could get radio over the net for free at the AFL website, but ever since they...

    Dogs to NZ???

    I'm new to the forum and I've just been to the IAFC website. I read the article about how it's time for the Bulldogs to move to New Zealand. I am from New Zealand and there would be nothing I'd love more than to see NZ get a team in the AFL, but Brian Clarke, do you really think we could...
