    Jumper clash fails

    Port didn't "refuse" to wear a clash jumper. As far as I know, we don't have one this year. EDIT: having had a look at the shots of training, the clash might be the red based strip with the heritage logo, as several players have been wearing it at training. For me, a full red strip would...

    HDFNL 2026

    The Kees only avoided bottom place last year because Taylors were slightly worse, we were belted by 150+ several times in the season, too. I'd say winning yesterday, especially by the margin we did, is evidence that the Kees will push very hard for a finals spot. And I wouldn't be so sure that...

    VFL 2026

    Again, you underestimate the power of nostalgia and the drive of the local council. You might think there is no way people would lower themselves to support a VFA club, but you'd be wrong. Look at Port Melbourne raising money through crowdfunding in 2017 (and winning the flag that year to boot)...

    HDFNL 2026

    Kalkee had a magnificent game today, sticking with Pimp until half time then outscoring them 14 goals to 1 in the second half. Tanner Smith with a lazy 10 goals. With Rup at home next week, the Kees would be favourites to make it a Turkey. Not bad from a side that dropped thier first 7 games...

    VFL 2026

    The stand alone clubs already have all of those things, though. Preston still exists at VAFA level and I'm of the opinion that Box Hill and Casey would be able to reactivate under their traditional identies, the infrastructure is there and the respective councils have a vested interest in...

    VFL 2026

    My prefrence would be for an AFL reserves and a stand alone second tier competition. The VFL/A should include: Box Hill Mustangs Casey Scorpions Coburg Lions Frankston Dolphins Preston Bullants Port Melbourne Borough Sandringham Zebras Werribee Tigers Williamstown Seagulls That is 9 teams...

    And what do the Santos and KFC logos represent? Selling out?

    HDFNL 2026

    Kalkee got off to a good start against a very physical TL. The latters coach seems to have gone to the Craig Bellamy school of coaching, could hear him screaming at his boys at half time all the way in the bar.

    VFL Lance Collard Tribunal hearing

    I'm not a legal expert, and I don't claim to be one. The tribunal, who are experts, decided that the evidence was sufficent to satisfy them that it was. That wasn't the point of my original comment, which was what word was reported to have been said and the power behind it. It's almost...

    VFL Lance Collard Tribunal hearing

    Have you ever been called that word? I have, and it ****ing hurts. It makes you feel like nothing, it robs you of your humanity, of your individuality, and it implies things about you that are tacitly reinforced by every ugly thing society has ever said about gay men and that you've internalised...

    VFL Lance Collard Tribunal hearing

    That's a ridiculous, and quite frankly offensive, comparrison. A slur that has been used to dehumanise a marginalised community is not the same as calling someone a coward, an idiot or a loser. I do have sympathy for Lance growing up in a difficult family situation. It's absolutely no excuse...

    VFL Lance Collard Tribunal hearing

    There is no such thing as "just a word". Words have power and meaning. A word like that is loaded with judgement, trauma, hate, systemic failures, discrimination, etc. People literally take their lives due to these words.

    BFL discussion 2026

    I think Redan is quietly confident of having a much better season this year, so despite the noise around Lakers, the Lions are hoping to be the big improver this season

    Wimmera FL discussion 2026

    Demons had an epic win today, especially after losing a player in the first 30 seconds. Was hearing it's the first time in 7-8 years Horsham has beaten Minyip-Murtoa

    This isn't bad, but I wish it was just the original without the faded logo on the background.
