    The Hocking effect on the AFL

    The extra 30 secs for ads and replays between goals is a crowd-noise killer at the ground. Seems to be counter intuitive given those rule changes designed for players to fatigue more, and it lengthens the game. Then they start debating shortening the quarters!

    Are they still commentating from studios in Melbourne watching vision? If so they could be delaying the picture very slightly to make the comments appear 'sharper' Haven't watched much of the scratches though

    Cringe-worthy! Perth Now website clickbait headline states "Early boost for Eagles as another Swans star.." Turns out to be story on Luke Parker fracturing his arm, which they re-badged as a boost for the Eagles as he won't be there for their round 4 game. I feel dirty just for clicking

    Can I add, with the significant issue of travel and it's effect upon injury and recovery, why are WCE and Freo not given concessions towards fitness and conditioning staff in the soft cap? Is it worth arguing for?

    Nic Naitanui Retires

    Thank you for sharing those highlights. How he will be missed, now the faint hopes of a return have been sadly snuffed out. Same achilles heel as the impressive Laurie Keene. Apart from the incomparable ruck work and centre square presence, contested possession and clearance stats, the thing...

    This ‘Baz-ball’ stuff irritates me. It’s nothing new. Greenidge and Haynes did it for West Indies with Clive Viv and Ritchie et al to follow. Hayden and Langer made a big point of attacking and even intimidating batting to set up a powerful upper middle order. It is relatively high risk if...

    Autopsy Round 11, 2023 - Positives and Negatives vs Essendon

    I unfortunately (yes) couldn't be at the game but on the bits I saw on Kayo he was awkwardly walking the boundary after treatment and I wondered if he'd required a jab for an injury and it may have affected this? He does as supporting forward take a lot of his shots from angles and at distance...

    They should index ithe soft cap percentage yearly increase against the CEO's wage increase or total AFL House spend increase. As they should the investment in local footy.

    Who could have predicted that having more umpires on the field would result in more soft free kicks, and they still miss obvious stuff like Lobb spilling the mark? I think there is a reason soccer and rugby have one main referee and linesmen they can call on for clarification.

    Injury SJOGHCIU - Offseason Edition

    Feeling a bit apprehensive for Nic Nat. It was achilles problems that robbed the early Eagles of their most potent weapon, Laurie Keene. He was like prime time Cox. We ended up having to rely on Phil Scott.

    Any thoughts on Cox using his knee in the ruck contests? If any action is dangerous and likely to cause injury, that is it. Should he be cited or suspended?

    Clearly they saw something special in Chesser which is why they did not mind trading down their first pick. Did Covid and/or injury hide him from the other clubs? Also I wonder if Port Adelaide got some heads-up that Essendon were looking at taking Sinn.
