    Play Nice Eddie McGuire comments on holding Caro Wilson underwater

    The irony of this thread? It was started by a poster who once claimed this: https://www.bigfooty.com/forum/threads/west-coast-should-take-legal-action-against-caroline-wilson.319465/page-2#post-7327308 I wonder if the OP is a middle-aged white man who doesn't want to see anyone treated with...

    Draft Value Index - A List Comparison

    With the 2015 AFL season finished and the trade period upon us, I thought it would be an interesting exercise to take a close look at the state of each club's list - using a different approach! Recently, the AFL introduced a Draft Value Index (DVI) which allocated points to draft positions...

    FTA-TV Fox footy off season

    Of course, if none of Foxtel's Summer content is appealing, you can always suspend Foxtel for three months and save your money!

    Traded Chris Yarran [to Richmond for Pick 19]

    According to the draft points, pick 12 plus pick 31 minus pick 21 is about pick 18. So, this trade would equate to approximately Yarran for pick 18 - an end of first round. It does seem like a fair deal for both!

    Does anyone actually support the Sub rule?

    To see the effect the sub rule has made, first assume there is no sub rule and that a team suffers an injury. Consider the extreme case where the injury comes before the first bounce and assume that the game goes for 120mins. Ordinarily, with 22 players, where 18 are on the field and 4 on the...

    Dealing with congestion

    The irony is the AFL solved this problem at the start of the year with the tweaking of the holding the ball rule. Congestion has only become an issue recently because the umpires have failed to implement the new rules. Did they lose their nerve? The game in the first few rounds was as free...

    Stoppages: Brereton speaking sense??

    To solve this issue, all we have to do is look back to round 1 of this year. Chris Scott was on 'On the Couch' after that round and commented on the new interpretation of holding the ball: "The new holding the ball interpretation... has been great for the game... It helped the game flow...

    Bomber Thompson's AOD Comments

    I'm not saying Hird and Evans had a financial incentive to use AOD, but I would suggest that they knew enough about AOD to stay away from it!

    Bomber Thompson's AOD Comments

    Here was Essendon's response to these allegations: http://www.abc.net.au/news/2013-07-29/bombers-shoot-down-aod-9604-case-study-talk/4851742 This patent, along with the infamous "financials" quote, and the fact that Evans and Hird were addressed as potential investors in Metabolic...

    Bomber Thompson's AOD Comments

    I believe this is the patent mentioned by Francis Leach: http://pericles.ipaustralia.gov.au/ols/auspat/applicationDetails.do?applicationNo=2012327167 Specifically, refer to the document named "Description 12-04-2013 SPBM-0000105007". Examples 6 to 9 seem to relate to Essendon players...
