    Moved Thread Kayo Sports

    Im also having Chromecast issues, in that I can't do it more than twice without logging in again. I contacted support, and an Essendon supporter named Gray told me that they are working on it, and that reloading the page should help. However I know another user that has been casting without...

    The eagle has landed documentary

    according to Schoey on the podcast, that was a shank off the in-step of the boot and was pure luck to land in the hands of vardy. i personally dont believe this because this was actually the 3rd or 4th time in the game Turbo had kicked a perfect checked kick in heavy traffic.

    List Mgmt. Delisting and drafting is almost as fun as trading: The trade and draft megathread

    players develop at different rates. jeremy mcgovern had played 0 games at nelsons age, whereas nelson has already played 42. maybe he will be like tony notte and never get over his athletic limitations, but im certainly comfortable with giving him another couple of years to try.

    List Mgmt. Delisting and drafting is almost as fun as trading: The trade and draft megathread

    wow, nice. considering the places he gets the ball and the sort of pressure he is under his handball is amazing. get him a perm and he is the reincarnation of matt priddis. is he a chance to fall to us?

    Tim Kelly - Requests Trade to West Coast

    i dont agree. i think they are playing the trade game and trying to get the best deal they can for their player. look anyone with any sort of respect for player welfare understands that kelly cant stay in victoria and that he is going home. but what does it cost geelong to just wait and try...

    Tim Kelly - Requests Trade to West Coast

    yes im sure the president of the players union has told a player to put his marriage and mental health at risk so one of the clubs isnt disadvantaged in some football games, and that he shouldnt get to choose where he wants to go (after exercising the same right himself). man, people really...

    Are we just going to sit here and act like the AFL isn't corrupt?

    So this is unlikely to get through the tin foil, but there is a pretty simple explanation. Players are not just allowed to use their football career to chase outside employment and sponsorship, they are encouraged. Because football careers are short. It's a basic right of employment...

    Free Agency Scott Lycett [joins Port Adelaide as a Restricted Free Agent]

    i dont think he is being overpaid by port, in fact i think they got a bargain. im a little surprised we didnt match, not to force a trade but to keep him. while he never quite lived up to the hype around his drafting, he has been awesome for us for many years, and especially since nicknat went...

    Tim Kelly - Requests Trade to West Coast

    the more i read about the situation that the kellys are in the more i think we should break the bank to get him. they have twins that are under 1 and a toddler that is autistic, and no family support. their lives must be insane pressure and chaos. i had just one kid and the first few months...

    Traded Rory Lobb [traded with #14, #43 and #47 to Fremantle for #11 and #19]

    is his salary an issue? is it true that he is on 900k? thats crazy! his output is lower than lycett, who is either going or staying for under $600k

    Free Agency Scott Lycett [joins Port Adelaide as a Restricted Free Agent]

    so with Lobb off the table, it seems like the eagles are considering matching the offer for Lycett not to force a trade but to actually keep him.

    Recommitted Tim Kelly [exploring trade options home to West Coast]

    take a step back and look at the bigger picture. remember that the player movement system that is active in the AFL is a compromise between the rights of the player and the rights of the clubs, as negotiated by the AFLPA and the AFL (on behalf of the clubs and the other stakeholders of the...

    Recommitted Andrew Gaff [re-signed]

    Why not Juju? I would have thought that all the comms people would be active online, and I dont see why that can't include Facebook group admin, Reddit moderaters, bigfooty threads about Andrew Gaff. I mean, I work for a WA government department with a far lower profile than WCE and our comms...

    For the record, these sorts of sightings were routine for Cousins before he made the transition from club druggie to under the bridge junkie.

    Recommitted Andrew Gaff [re-signed]

    the dangerfield example is the perfect precedent, because you can look at the different factors that lead to it occurring. the contract offer was smaller, the pressure on adelaide to get compensation was greater, dangerfield was more committed to going home. all of these things combined is why...

    Recommitted Andrew Gaff [re-signed]

    actually the answer is not "no", the dangerfield sequence of events could certainly happen again. but this is why its super unlikely. if the eagles were prepared to match, AND gaff still wanted to go, AND north were still interested if they had to pay a pick on top of offering a huge...

    Robert Walls hits a new low pt2

    Walls has always been keen to ascribe on-field performance as a response to his comments, as if the whole football world revolves around his commentary. In one memorable exchange many years ago, he admitted that he didnt watch very many games, only a couple a week, and in the middle of a great...

    Gaff predictions

    apparently the offer is 6 million+ over 6 years!!! 6 years that he can live in the same city as his old man, who has a dicky heart. its a testament to how much he loves the eagles that he is even considering staying.

    Play Nice Was that Gaffs last game for WC?

    does the tribunal have public relations of the game as part of its adjudicative scope? i highly doubt it. on the other hand, that it was accidentally high, the fact that gaff is clean and he is obviously remorseful will be talked about a great deal.

    Play Nice Was that Gaffs last game for WC?

    this seems correct, as far as the tribunal classifications are concerned, it will certainly be intentional. gaff will argue that in front of the tribunal, but its impossible to see how it could possible end up as a lower grading. however morally speaking it changes things quite...

    Play Nice Was that Gaffs last game for WC?

    100% agree. I mean the fact that the eagles supporters didn't immediately condemn a club legend for an out of character brain fade that he obviously regretted the moment it happened, drag him into the crowd and beat him to death basically means that they are all individually worse than Hitler.

    Play Nice Was that Gaffs last game for WC?

    Agreed, after a short trial I think he should be beheaded with a shovel. I mean what if he killed him?

    State Of Origin On The Agenda Again?

    This works as a format. Home games can alternate between opponents. Id probably play the seventh side against an international all stars team as an exhibition for development reasons. Player participation is actually fairly easy. The new games will generate piles of cash. The players who play...
