Traditional playing positions at centre bounces
Clubs must have six players inside both 50m arcs, with one player inside the goalsquare.
Four midfield players must start inside the centre square with the two wingmen stationed along the wing...
Simple enough question. While the Brownlow has the lion's share of prestige, which of the three awards do you think is a more accurate representation of the best player in the league. One award decided by the umps, one by the players themselves and one by the coaches.
For reference:
Brownlow...
Interesting article on the official site about potential flaws that contenders for the flag have that might be their undoing.

For the Swans it was:
The Swans are the form team of the competition...
Remember when players just used to be good, ordinary and hopeless?
Now stats are dominating the game and every aspect of a player's performance is stripped down.

Now we have things like...
I was just postulating, with so many champions of the game retiring, what actually constitutes a champion in your mind?
I know it's used as a broad term for someone who has been a great servant to the club or the sport but what makes one player a champion opposed to someone not considered to be...

Many will rejoice at the end of the sub but how do you think the restrictions on rotations will go? Will it clear some of the congestion?
Despite being a gun player for us over the years, winning a premiership as a quality half forward flanker and then another flag and a Norm Smith as a midfielder only two seasons back, O'Keefe has quickly fallen out of favour at the Swans as younger and faster players have taken over in the...
He's a very insightful man, Ken Hinkley.
The title thread is him commenting on the "rumours" of Taylor Walker moving to Port.
So far this week we've had:
Walker moving to Port.
Daniel Merrett being traded by the Lions.
Paddy Ryder trying to get out of his Bombers contract and move to...
Firstly I'd just like to congratulate myself on a very witty thread title.
Well done, self.
