    Win Prizes Nuggs' F1 Tipping Comp - 2026

    Too late now, but this was my pick. Oscar's season of redemption starts here.

    Welcome Welcome to Hawthorn : Pick 7, Cam MacKenzie, extends to 2026!

    His first, Connor's 2nd, Newk's 3rd and Ward's 4th. It seems to happen a lot with Cam and Josh (less so with the others). I wonder if there's something in that, and the role they are fulfilling quarter by quarter.

    Society & Culture Things in life you just don't understand - Part 6

    I explain it this way: Agent: Backing their skills to use good marketing and negotiating skills to generate the "Best" price. They have virtually no risk if their predicted price is over-inflated. If they don't get the price offered, it doesn't cost them anything and time is of little...

    Society & Culture Things in life you just don't understand - Part 6

    Agree it's an issue with the way loans are assessed, but essentially all you doing is telling the bank that - should you be unable to afford the repayments on both loans - your existing home could be used to generate additional income via rental. Bridging loans are generally much higher risk -...

    No Oppo Supporters General AFL discussion and other club’s news - Part 10

    Contracts are renegotiated all the time. Sure, it's usually an extension, but why not? EFC: Hi Zach, Would you prefer to keep your dusty old 2 year contract @ 800k.....or this shiny new 1yr contract for 1.2M? (1.4, x.x?). At some point he would take it and run. Given how desperate he is to...

    Opinion Did Lance Franklin play better football at Hawthorn or Sydney?

    You calling me old? :D (Old enough I hadn't realised you quoted me - I was thinking this sounds familiar....) ...and informed is rather generous.

    I think Merc still have more improvements to come. Expect their advanage to be similar/better than McLaren 25. RUS ANT LEC HAM MAX

    News AFL overhauls Academy and FS bid matching, discussing draft lockout

    Today's version of "fair" (as replacing "picks" with "points" and a true bidding system that will never happen): Clubs can hold unlimited "Future" picks - but for the current draft are limited to one selection per list vacancy at all times. Instead of a getting a "discount" to match, clubs get...

    I feel like this year has really snuck up on me. Didn't even realise Melbourne was this week! Russell Verstappen Antonelli Leclerc Norris

    Welcome Welcome to Hawthorn: Ollie Greeves

    Agree - it was positively refreshing. I actually enjoyed the call. Everything that is old is new again....maybe one caller and a colour (who only talks in breaks or after goals)

    Median age of teams?

    Draft Guru does the whole list ages: AFL Tables gives you the raw data across years for whole lists. Footy Wire gives you a game-by-game summary - but no idea where that data is stored/searchable. Wheeloratings are the only one left showing an "age of the 23" summary.
