Mega Thread Non-Freo AFL Discussion 2025

[ImperialPurple]

Reminds me of the old joke

We used to have Empires run by Emperors
Then we had kingdoms run by Kings
Now we have Countries ........

….. run by Don Pykes

 

[JunglistPosse]

That's a garbage decision

What a waste of a good young player.

What a waste of a good young player.

To just dump him when he could've been recycled.

Yeh tough read that one
Way too many characters and places with long names
Give me the good old Hobbit story any day

I tried and failed..It was a tough read.

Favourite fantasy writer of all time for me starts with Magician by Raymond E Feist. If you haven't read it then jump in. Theres 30 or so books with a different sagas that are linked.

If you love that, I'd recommend Brandon Sanderson's Stormlight Archive. https://booksinorder.org/series/the-stormlight-archive *

Never jumped in on Sanderson. Might have to give it a go when I'm done with my current backlog of books.

I've been waiting 14 years for the third book in Patrick Rothfuss' King killer Chronicles.

The first two were absolute bangers.

Don’t even get me started on that bastard

I once tried to explain the plight of being a Fremantle fan to a friend (who doesn't know sports). She said "oh so it's like me waiting since 07 for Rothfuss to finish his trilogy"

The name of the wind is my favourite book...

If he ever finished the series then it would take its rightful place at the top of my favourites.

Jim Butcher, Michael J Sullivan, Brent Weeks, Brian McClellan, David Daglish, Raymond Feist....All have written fantastic series and are either finished them or on the way to finishing them.

Rothfuss and George R R .Martin have let me down so hard.

Man this really is the worst part of the off season

 

[DragoDelph]

1. Necroscope (Brian Lumley)
2. Anything Crichton.
3. The mallorean and the belgariad

 

[DQ 4EVER]

I love a good book, John Irving, Jeffrey Eugenides, Salman Rushdie & others, but how is the discussion of books, Non-Freo AFL Discussion?
