    Orange back still a problem. They really need charcoal on the back of all home jumpers.

    Oppo Camp Non-Eagles Discussion

    Don't get me wrong - the rules are farcical - but the umpires arent out to get anyone. HTB could - should - be much simpler. Pet hate of mine you tackle someone over the line - and they had prior - it should be HTB every time - but its never paid. (ie Kerr v Hall perfect example of when it...

    Oppo Camp Non-Eagles Discussion

    Both Eagles & Freo supporters always thinks umpires are against them - we don't get the chance to attend many games as neutrals, so many people think that's truth. People only tend to see the "wrong" decisions when it affects them - only see the interpretation that fits for them Watched Hawks v...

    Toast Jack Darling - 250 AFL Games

    I expect he will get the 300 next year (assuming he plays on) . But, for all the hate, this year should see him reach 2nd most games played 2nd most goals kicked (total)

    List Mgmt. Welcome Harley Reid (Pick 1, 2023 National Draft)

    Kinda Harley related... Was at a function tonight with Petch, speaking as a Victorian he commented how it was so much better playing in front of big crowds, even when we aren't a top side, while the smaller victorian clubs play in front of empty stadiums - I'm sure the guys are the saying the...

    The Jumper Thread

    I'd love to see them use it once a year as a "Dig Deep" jumper at Home. Ad a little logo, and use it for fundraising.

    List Mgmt. Welcome Harley Reid (Pick 1, 2023 National Draft)

    Always need experience to go with the youth - Gold Coast tried building a list almost completely with youth, and it didn't work. They still havent played finals, where as GWS had a better balance, and have played in multiple finals include a Grand Final in same time.

    Jumper clash fails

    White shorts in this was fine. White shorts v teams with white jumpers (ie cats, Roos, swans) is what causes a lot of the issues. Dark clubs (ie blues are the worst) not wearing their white clash when needed is still the main issue
