    Autopsy AFL 2021 Round 13 - Port v Cats Thurs June 10th 7:40pm EST/7:10PM CENTRAL (AO)

    This is why it is hard to read game day threads these days. You come looking for discussion about a game and get sooks talking about umpires every second post. What did you think of the dynamics of the game? Individual performances? Courageous acts? Every game day post is about how the umpires...

    Senior 18. Sam Walsh

    I think you may have a gun on your hands here. More of a Josh Kelly than Tulip though. There will only ever be one Robbie Flower. The last 5 drafts haven’t produced a player who even approaches Tulip’s talent. Maybe the last 20 in terms of pure footballing ability. Made the right (and obvious)...

    20 year Pokies licenses for 5 AFL Clubs

    Some of the responses in this thread are beyond unreasonable. People who back their club no matter what they do are brainwashed sheep. Just because something is legal doesn’t make it moral. Clubs like Richmond and hawthorn who boast about their members and power but condone this are hypocrites...

    Shaun Burgoyne

    Burgoyne is a hard one to classify. He is either regarded as an elite role player or a star depending on who you ask. When some fans say he stands up in the big moments that’s true. Never makes an unforced mistake and always executes the basics. For me he is somewhat like a Bartel but he had...

    Jordan Lewis 300th game this week

    He has slowed down a fair bit. Can’t really go into the midfield anymore. He is great as a spare down back because he knows where to place himself but if situated 1 on 1 he gets found out. Still a very smart player but may not be an automatic best 22 next year. Surprisingly makes a few howler...

    Norm Smith medalists that shouldn’t have been

    It’s one of footys biggest revisionist history facts that Voss dragged his team over the line while Buckley went missing. Buckley was the best player over the course of the game. Voss did some important stuff in the last but people romanticise winner players moments. I think the Norm Smith...

    2018 Rolling All Australian Team

    Talented player, very happy to see him regain some form. I won’t be like some of those sad sacks in other threads who are actually hoping to break down so they can gloat. But, his name has no place in this thread. Probably has about 50/60 mids alone ahead of him. Doesn’t have the consistency...

    Is Shaun Burgoyne like Hawthorns Enright?

    I met him once at my local. The nicest bloke you could ever meet. Literally one of the nicest most genuine blokes I’ve ever had the pleasure of having a chat with. I don’t but into hyperbole though. Not close to SJ as a forward or a 5x MVP as a mid. A long time gun who was never the best of the...

    Cripps Bontempelli Merrett Kelly - the next big 4?

    Cripps was good today. But nowhere near BOG. He was probably the 1st/2nd best mid with Jones. Gawn and McDonald were clearly the best 2 players on the field though. Cripps is a beast of a player but he really needs to polish up his foot skills. When posters say he is tidy or a good kick that’s...

    Round 5 - ANZAC Eve - Melbourne v Richmond, Tuesday 24 April, 7:25pm, MCG

    Why is a game day thread filled with posts about players from each team who are NOT playing? Hardly seems relevant to the game being played tonight.

    Preview Who will finish higher - Melbourne, Western Bulldogs, St Kilda or Hawthorn

    Mate, I’m not one of these Melbourne supporters that thinks we are destined for greatness. Our list has holes like Swiss cheese (outside speed and kicking skills). Tell me with a straight face that you think Gresham is better than Garlett currently. Garlett is currrently a top 5-7ish small...

    Jake Lever - it's good to get a feed with mates

    Literally no defender in the league is on that money. It’s not pleasant losing young talent but you don’t have to make up your own facts to push an agenda. Consensus is about 750k and if you don’t have any proof it means at this stage, you’re just peddling misinformation. I eagerly await your...

    What makes Gary Ablett Jnr such a gun?

    How How so? Off the top of my head by that time GAJ had won 2 b&f in premiership years, 2 GFs, a Brownlow, a leading club goal kicker and three consecutive AAs. His 2008 GF was also a superior game than Dusty’s 2017 GF. At the end of his 8th year he had just completed one of the best 3 year...

    What makes Gary Ablett Jnr such a gun?

    Compare the resumes of Ablett and Martin. Ablett won 5 MVPs. Has lead goal kicking at 2 different clubs, has the most consecutive AA’s of all time. Martin has had 2 elite seasons, Ablett did if for the best part of a decade. Martin would need to play the same level for another 5 Years to get to...

    What makes Gary Ablett Jnr such a gun?

    Best I’ve seen. His coordination all round is superior to Danger, Judd, Fyfe, Martin. If he wanted to play soccer, basketball, tennis, etc. he is the type to excel at everything. I think it’s his polish, coordination and instincts that set him apart from the above even though they are generally...
