    AFL International Regional Championships 2024

    Scheduling an AFLW Preliminary Final in Brisbane to clash :rolleyes: what are they smoking at AFL house? either a massive fail, a missed opportunity or a clear sign that they would prefer people not to know about it I suspect the latter, especially since it has taken a fantastic global...

    AFL International Regional Championships 2024

    So the senior games are all played mid week during the day on cow paddocks, scheduled and advertised just days before the matches start and streamed from a cheap ass platform. I can see the AFL is absolutely desperate to make it a raging success :rolleyes: And they wonder why Queensland's huge...

    AFL International Regional Championships 2024

    Does anyone have a Pacific Cup schedule. Can't find it anywhere. Given that its next week, I'm shocked at how little promotion this is getting, especially given the enormously successful Rugby League Pacific Cup Championships

    2024 State Of Origin teams

    Yes but Zorko back there seems a really strange choice! Whats wrong with swapping Payne with Zorko and putting him in the midfield or even an up and comer like a Will Ashcroft or Jaspa Fletcher and pinch hitting Zorko off the interchange? There is quite a bit of experience in this side but...

    AFL International Regional Championships 2024

    Silly question but why has there been no mention of this anywhere! Nothing on the AFL site. Nothing in the news. Not even anything about the Pacific Cup which is supposed to be here! Not a thing. I've seen better promotion for my local bingo competition. Its like they deliberately don't want...

    Rugby becoming more popular than AFL in Nauru

    Rugby have poached many of the senior men's AFL players to their international program. Of course the senior men not being able to play international AFL since 2017 and the senior men's AFL competition going into recess certainly didn't help. So the AFL kids being developed are going to end up...

    Rugby becoming more popular than AFL in Nauru

    Have been following Nauru where AFL was once the national sport. But rugby is now growing super fast whereas AFL is in obvious decline there. The country is being starved of senior international competition in AFL but is now getting regular competition in rugby. Seems a shame that the AFL is...

    Papua New Guinea

    Good luck but I think you'll find PNG and in particular Port Moresby isn't a very safe place, especially for a holiday. Be careful out there!

    2024 International Cup

    https://www.afl.com.au/news/986943/afl-confirms-international-regional-events-for-2024 wow ... what a joke ... gobsmacked AFL needs a good slap over the face with a wet towel Are these supposed to be qualifiers for a future IC or has the tournament been scrapped altogether?

    Steven May's mark - What will the AFL do?

    In Masters AFL they have already banned raising knees when taking a mark for exactly this sort of reason. Apart from old guys not being able to jump its one of the main reasons you don't see any speckies taken in the masters. Won't be long before there is a crackdown and a new rule on raising...

    2024 International Cup

    Has there been any announcement from the AFL that the tournament is actually going ahead in 2024 or are they too busy polishing their knobs in Adelaide?

    Autopsy AFL 2023 Round 5 Gather Round - Lions v North Sat April 15th 1:10pm AEST (Adelaide Hills)

    Anyone travelling to the game? Thought about it but decided not to. I think with Brisbane's away record they're going to go back into "not trying" mode.

    Gold Coast and GWS has failed

    The biggest problem is the brand. They look like they were made up AFL marketing department and locals can smell a fake a mile off. Orange is not a great look on any jumper. GWS means nothing. Greater Western Sydney even less. Who identifies with this fake rubbish? Plus they aren't really based...

    Preview Lions v Dogs Marvel Stadium Thursday 30th March 6.20 pm Brisbane Time

    My feeling is that Hipwood should be dropped. He hasn't been in good form for a while. But who would they replace him with? I also feel that Gunston doesn't look settled at the Gabba. If he doesn't fire at Marvel they should consider dropping him and giving someone like Mathieson a go.
