    What's been your favourite moment ever as a footy fan?

    Buddy’s match winning goal against the crows in the 07 elimination final. Really announcing himself on the competition

    top 10 richmond players in the history of the sport

    If Franklin got drafted to Richmond in the mid 00’s he would have been chewed up, spat out and back in WA by 2010

    Carey vs Statistical Equals and Betters

    I personally think Derm would trade 3 flags in exchange to be regarded as the best player of all time by many.

    The pursuit of Youth

    Young draftees with potential upside = cheap Average experienced players with limitations = expensive

    Has anyone NOT watched the Grand Final?

    I suspect no one ever, hawks fans included , will watch a reply or highlights package of 2013. What an absolute uneventful snoozefest

    Toast Best footy photos ever

    On those premiership photos, I feel like when the cameras went digital it lost a bit of its charm; all looks a bit steril compared to the early incarnations

    Amongst fellow Brownlow recipients where does Jimmy Bartel stand?

    Love Bartel. But the fact he never won a club beat and fairest probably has to rank him below a lot of the top guys.

    How would former great players go in the modern game?

    If Gary Ablett Snr was converted to the modern game he’d play and dominate exactly like Jnr, perhaps more so

    What unpopular AFL opinions do you have? (Part 1 - cont in Part 2)

    Horrible runs of injury is not an excuse for poor development/waste of a draft pick. A players body is part of the overall package, and it doesn’t matter whether it’s the players fault or out of their control, if you never played enough to be recognised as a good place, you aren’t a good...

    What makes Gary Ablett Jnr such a gun?

    I’d personally have Ablett above Judd in kicking, handballing, marking, reading the play, core strength, goal sense, timing, lateral movement, endurance, spacial awareness and player envolvement. With Judd being ahead in only a few areas such as top speed, explosiveness (barely, and only pre-OP)...

    Bogan Best 22

    Dustin Martin; from a regional town, dropped out of school at 15, dads a bikie, affraid to speak to the media, has disposable income he spends on terrible tattoos and spends his free time drinking and doing drugs. That’s as Bogan as it comes.

    The Quality Of AFL Athleticism Compared To Other Sports?

    If the athletes that compete in the NBA spent their whole developmental years and professional careers training for the specific athletic and skill requirements of AFL they’d be so greatly superior than our current players.

    What unpopular AFL opinions do you have? (Part 1 - cont in Part 2)

    Richmond football club has failed Dustin Martin. Dropped out of school ridiculously young, clearly thick as they come; I personally believe Richmond upon drafting him should have taken it upon themselves to somewhat educate him instead of continue to slip through the cracks just because he's...

    ANZAC Day Game: Two Best Vic Sides from Previous Year & other suggestions?

    Make Anzac Day Eve a match to qualify to play in the Anzac Day match, then rotate according to who wins and lose, with the previous years premier getting the last spot. Eg. Anzac Day Eve 2017 Richmond (win) Vs Melbourne Anzac Day 2017 Essendon (Win) Vs Collingwood Anzac Day Eve 2018...
