    Really not convinced.

    Brendon Gale OUT

    Geez... Graeme Richmond types on here. Sacking Hafey was the worst thing we did. I trust Gale is professional enough to guide us through to the end of the season. He starts the Tassie after that, but it is three years before they play their first game. He's not jumping into a role that requires...

    Players you are surprised are still on an AFL list

    15 years of being bog average, but being better at it than anyone else. Every year has averaged between 8 and 11 disposals. Has cracked 20 disposals in a game only twice in his career. Only once kicked more than 25 goals in a year. Has gone goalless in more than third of his games. Will...

    Geelong to go undefeated in 2024??

    The soft draw also extends to having a six day break to the Suns five day break after the Suns played in Darwin last week. Then what do you know... after playing in Darwin the Cats get a nine day break before having to face the Giants at home who get the standard week. I will also state it's...

    Geelong to go undefeated in 2024??

    The testing part of the season is upon Geelong. Three consecutive losses with the Giants to come, albeit at home. Should beat Richmond but then the Swans (genuine threats), Blues and Essendon (looking for credentials). Think we'll know a lot about all four sides at the end of it.

    Matt Rowell and holding the ball

    I'm not aware of it but it sounds like the new Selwood shrug. If umps are gonna let it go then good on him, as infuriating as it may be.

    Autopsy Is most AFL journalism just clickbait rubbish?

    It's not even that it's clickbait rubbish, it's that the clickbait rubbish gets regurgitated as clickbait rubbish. Cornes/Caro/Barrett blurt out an opinion in their media space and then other outlets and "journos" create a story out of that opinion in their media space.

    Not underrated, but overlooked. Who and why?

    I'd happily give Tim Watson more credit for less ubiquity in the media. And I'd give Tim Watson more credit if his son had less media presence too.

    Concussion and the Richmond theme song

    Maybe change the Carlton theme song to "We are Beyond Blues". No-one should be so down they are navy blue.

    Players to Kick 700+ Goals in the VFL/AFL

    I do enjoy threads like this. Initial thoughts and comments on posts in this thread (bit Richmond centric I have to confess so I'll put at the end) ... Elevate Ken Farmer to Legend status ASAP, with an apology for not having done so sooner. Did Hudson get to 700 quickest in just 122 games...

    Opinion Draws, do we want them?

    Extra time would be so great for a team playing interstate Sunday followed by a Friday match the next week.

    Banter Geelong V Richmond - GO!

    Riewoldt went at 2.27 goals per game, Hawkins is still going at 2.23 goals per game. You do understand that is a one goal difference every 25 games. Hawkins is going at 0.94 goal assists per game while Riewoldt went at 0.72. Combine the two and suddenly Hawkins is ahead. Maybe that's because...

    Banter Geelong V Richmond - GO!

    You're just choosing arbitrary benchmarks and in doing so you're only denigrating Jack Riewoldt given how comparable the careers of Jack and Tom were. Jack only kicked 70+ in a season twice, so are you saying his 15 other seasons amounted to not much? Jack may have kicked 10+ on three...

    North to go winless in 2024?

    Thomas was the right pick at the time. Anything else is all with the benefit of hindsight. Google 2018 AFL Phantom Draft and look at the AFL, ESPN, Fox Sports and The Roar (amongst others) lists and they’re all sending TT to the Roos. Any pick after first round is really a shot in the dark...

    Rumour Daniel Rioli to join the Suns

    Who do all these draft picks learn from? Dusty is going/cooked, Hopper and Taranto are hopeless, Prestia, Grimes, etc are all retiring,… It’s been shown wholesale clean-outs do more harm than good no matter how many draft picks are brought in.
