    A video essay I stumbled upon in the YouTube algorithm. A good reminder of what used to be and how lucky we are now. Whatever happens this week, this season has been a great success.

    This Essendon strategy makes no sense. We wont ever trade Zach. He is our captain he has a long term contract! He is our hest player and has won an infinte number of Kevin Sheedies or whatever our irrelevant trophy is called. We are going to start calling it the Zach Merret medal anyway from now...

    Well that makes things more interesting. We are on more even footing than I thought. I'd still rather Starc for 2 more years than picks for our academy selection. I agree that that value looks spot on. How do Adelaide get such a pick given their position, its hard to tell. The suggestion of a...

    Its hard to gauge the trade value of Ah Chee. He would be a highly respected player internally and at Adelaide given their pursuit of him. His goals/shots/tackles/disposals have all been up for the past 2 years and he is finally excelling at his role. I expect Ah Chee to be at this level for the...

    Who do you think could become the first 400 gamer for the Brisbane Lions?

    Only including one club players in this list: Zorko 300 games - 300 games played; averaging 21 games a season - age 37. Comment: surely not. Would be an absolute effort to play until 42 but as the commonly known saying goes: you cannot cork the zork. Harris Andrews 234 games; averaging 21 games...

    From a broader business sense I dont see how banning bid matches in the first round helps the AFL sell itself more. There is a lot of intrigue that happens around pick trading and bid matches that generate a lot of discussion. People follow the lead up to a draft closer knowing a certain player...

    Im a master strategist. All the million simulations I ran through has finally paid off. I knew if I didn't win this round, I would only have midfielders left. Was kicking myself for not picking Smith on debut

    Fagan also spoke about it on the Roar Deal podcast a few years back. He mentioned that players were scared to speak up, scared to get feedback, football wasn't fun, families felt disconnected from the club. Some of that is probably also because of the lack of funds to do things. Fagan made a...

    Its a stupid idea that is being spat out to raise clicks for Eddie and his shows. Eddie would know that any fixtures changes that loses overall number of matches is a non-starter. Number of matches = more profits from TV rights. The whole point of a play in system is to squeeze more juice from...

    Great to lock him away before all the Tasmania expansion nonsense starts. I will never begrudge an AFL seeking out the highest package possible. Im sure Jasper could have taken a shorter contract and taken more money over the long term. You just have to respect players that value loyalty and...

    Prediction 1 Round to go, where do we finish end of H&A? Poll included.

    I think if we are genuine contenders to win the flag we should go 6 0 in this final stretch or at least 4 2. If we go 3 3 then wherever we finish in the overall we will be lucky to get past the preliminary final. We need to be good enough to win anywhere and put away contenders at the Gabba...

    I don't think its that hard to imagine that if gay slurs are being used all the time at your football club, you wouldn't find it comfortable to tell members of that club about your life or partners etc. I think that 4 rounds is perfectly fine. It's harsh enough that players will be mindful of...

    Academy Rorts - The 2025 Draft Thread

    I do wonder if all this northern academy chat is a smoke screen for the comeuppance of the NGA rorts that's about to get reported on and closed up this August. Firstly, I am a visible minority and getting minority players in the league and getting visibility is important to reach new audiences...

    Academy Rorts - The 2025 Draft Thread

    How many pick 1s ever win a premiership at their original club? The club needs to be shit enough to warrant a pick 1 but then get good enough within 10 years to win a flag. Cam would be one rare player. Did West Coast do it in 2018? Very rare feat.

    Review Round 13, 2025 - Adelaide vs. Brisbane Lions

    A Daniher sized hole was the difference in us losing those 4 points. Cannot be replaced. We move on but I feel we may end up noticing such a hole again in the finals

    Tasmania was always going to be a financial black hole for the AFL. Shy of 600,000 people in the whole state. No way would they be making any significant money from advertisers and sponsorships. You would need a ridiculous number of committed regular fans to make any significant gate takings...

    You also want to show your academy talent that if you play well that you will get drafted here. If you start pulling cutesy bullshit by not drafting your best academy talent when available in the first round; it sends a message to the rest of the academy that you are disposable too. Why sign up...

    News Greg Swann has accepted a role to become the AFL’s new footy performance boss

    I think its great timing. Swan is probably looking to step back into retirement in the next 5 years. He gets to take a role with fat stacks in AFL headquarters before retiring. We need a young guy who would be willing to stay for 10 plus years and get us through the next big transition from the...

    Hence he is used to being overpaid by a huge amount and thus would expect similar money. He is the perfect guy for a bottom 4 team to overpay. We would be better served giving similar money to a better player.

    We should combine all 3 and have one mega stadium. We would be the first super AFL multi ball site. Imagine simultaneous VFL and AFL and AFLW match ups between clubs all at the same time. Teams would be able to interchange players from each simultaneous match at the same time. Davidsons got her...

    I have very little sympathy for the small vic clubs. They get the same Vicbias advantages as a big vic club but they are too pathetic to leverage it as well as those clubs. Then they have the audacity to cry poor. They get the same advantage of limited travel which has huge impacts on player...

    No way Morris was signing anything but a short contract now. He is on the upswing and his best bet is multiple short contracts until free agency and then a long term contract to take him into his late 20s. Regarding Rayner, he was one of the first to sign on and commit to the club when it was...
