    Unexpected footballer encounters

    Went in for a massage at a place in the city 2-3 years back, who do I find sitting in the reception but the one and only Chris Judd. This would be mundane enough, as it was the Monday after a big weekend of football and you would expect some kinks may need to be worked out, but as I was about...

    Red Water Bottles and Coaches

    Has anyone noticed that at least half of the AFL coaches seem to be drinking out of those strangely shaped red water bottles? What's the deal with that?

    Dealing with congestion

    How about incentivize scoring not by tweaking the structure of the rules themselves, but by offering external rewards to teams that play free flowing, attacking football?

    Who is the AFL's biggest loser?

    An article on The Age website notes that 11 players in the Melbourne lineup had a win percentage of only 26% in their careers. This got me thinking about which players in the AFL have the lowest win percentage over 100 games. These would be, as the article says, the game's biggest...
