AFLX and JLT series discussion

Why were the indigenous boys segregated from the white teams?

Gil is a racist.

Gil is a racist.

Certainly feels that way

There was a reference on one of the players' guernseys, honouring an historic indigenous football team.
Personally, I did not see any racist undertone to the team.
I actually thought it was quite good.
I did not know Jade Gresham was an indigenous player.
He is a superstar, St Kilda's best player.

Betts selected his team. There were a few other non ingig players initially selected.

Jeez I thought peddles looked in great shape, he must be serious for this year's retilt at the granny....
Had to laugh at Higgo yelling...hey easty! Easty!...WEST!!! with a big grin! Lol....

And then explaining the joke haha

I liked the format. From the draft to the games themselves. Puts fun back into football. And that is In short supply.

My take as well TTT. It didn't take itself too seriously - it was entertainment and better still, the players enjoyed playing it it seemed to me. So anyone knocking it has missed the point and needs to go back to a local footy club and get back in touch with the game. Wasn't sure of the Rock, Scissors, Paper when I heard about it first up, but again it was just a bunch of lads geeing each other up - it was fun too.

It definitely wasn't racist. I read that more as a comment on society. 30 years ago having a team for the Aboriginal players would have been considered segregation and seen as racist. These days it's applauded as inclusive. Not saying it's a bad thing, but it's kinda funny that we've gone full circle.

TBF Smithton closed its doors due to a lack of players not money issues. Although the AFL could do a lot more to promote football in Tassie and get the kids involved.

How delicious would Riewoldt kicking the last kick of the match to put us in front in a GF be?

Would rather he kicks his 10th to put us 100 up with the last kick but hey whatever floats your boat

 

[Shazza_]

loved Riewoldts teams jumper. Reckon the fluro yellow/lime with the black looked fantastic. Something for the club to ponder as a sash colour for the next iteration of our guernsey.

EntRancing.

Someone just told me jack held a place kick for cripps?
Cripps isn’t a Carlton players arseh*le back in the day he’d have deliberately kicked his hand and broken it.
Soft.

 

[telsor]

Will be calling Jack a premiership captain from now on.

Premiership captain coach!

Plenty of towns who have and continue to enjoy population growth are seeing a massive decline in people playing AFL in preference to other sports.

or screens ?....this is why i don't get what's with ppl going on and on and on about watching sports on 3 screens at a time (kayo)...serious ? your vision
is that good you can watch 3 diff games/sports at the same time ? how about divert your vision to your girth and do sumin' about that ?

 

[Stevi_Tigers]

Mr bright side playing after jack kicks the goal not bad

 

[Stevi_Tigers]

feel bad for Cripps he finally got to watch a good full forward and full back play in the same side as he did

Riewoldt would make a good coach. The only thing is, who is going to give Carlton a lot of inside 50 entries if Cripps is staying inside 50?

 

[Rubber Hips]

To cap off the ridiculousness of Afl X ?..tight arse Gil hands out lame arsed $2 shop trophies

Check out the plastic X
Event worse the Super Boot trophy....looks like a Baby shoe lol...
