    Multiplat AFL 23 - Releasing April 13 | Gameplay Reveal March 22

    The lack of short handballs in AFL live was certainly frustrating. Would love to see some kind of distance modifier in this game or a future release. For example, perhaps little rings appear under players within vicinity of a handball. The closest player has a brighter / different coloured...

    Autopsy Round 1, 2023: St.Kilda v Fremantle *PHILLIPOU, CAMINITI DEBUT*

    Clark extremely efficient with his CBA to clearance ratio. Interesting, considering his size is traditionally not conducive to success in the central midfielder role. Will love to see how this plays out as he expands his game time and (hopefully) CBA numbers.

    Autopsy Round 1, 2023: St.Kilda v Fremantle *PHILLIPOU, CAMINITI DEBUT*

    Watching Caminiti at the ground last night really impressed me. His attack on the ball was quite ferocious, and the only thing that really stopped him from taking 3-4 grabs in the forward 50 was his relative size difference to the Freo defenders. He demonstrated a decent ability to read the...

    Toast Welcome to St.Kilda - MATTAES PHILLIPOU!!

    If Mattaes has half the self-belief he ostensibly has and a manager worth his salt, then there’s no way he’d be signing an extension this early on in his career, especially for that duration. We wouldn’t be offering “overs” and he’d surely back himself to earn more than what we’re offering now...

    Do we have to guess whose nudes they are, or just “n00dz” will suffice?

    Wonder if we will have a broken street date, as is tradition.

    Multiplat AFL 23 - Releasing April 13 | Gameplay Reveal March 22

    Decided never to pre order games again, with how the industry has trended over the past decade. Anyway, I just preordered AFL 23. [emoji23] Figured I’m going to play it no matter what, so might as well give the encouraging boost to the sales data, even if it is infinitesimal.

    List Mgmt. 2023 Trade and List Management Thread

    The AFL really can’t allow this to continue. As it stands, St Kilda could find themselves in a situation whereby an elite young talent like NWM demands a trade to a side that stripped themselves of all draft currency (Port), making any form of fair trade significantly more difficult. We would be...

    This is why I’d be happy if BigAnt included live updates to player stats, even if it requires a small payment. It means you’re not stuck with some unrealistic stats for an entire season. Even if they don’t, their customisation and sharing features means it’s possible for the dedicated few to...

    Multiplat AFL 23 - Releasing April 13 | Gameplay Reveal March 22

    Therein lies the problem, though. People developed erroneous expectations based on their ignorance of game development timelines, ergo my reference to the Dunning-Kruger effect. I could understand the type of comments that we see here, if Big Ant promised an early 2023 release date and...

    Multiplat AFL 23 - Releasing April 13 | Gameplay Reveal March 22

    It wasn’t a gameplay demo, but what is known as a “vertical slice” of the game. They cordon off a small portion of features to make it easier to send out a piece that is at the standard of the finished product, as proof of concept / demonstration. There’s a fundamental difference between a demo...

    Multiplat AFL 23 - Releasing April 13 | Gameplay Reveal March 22

    A number of people here need to reassess their expectations of developer interaction and the release of information. We’re not presented with a choice between the level of interaction we’re receiving here, and full insider knowledge; not at all. The choice is truly between the interaction we’re...

    In all likelihood, the time and money dedicated to the features of which you complain would not have had any meaningful impact on the gameplay or motion capture. Ensuring a complete roster of accurate likenesses takes minimal additional effort beyond just the core players, but creates an...

    Prediction New Jumper Numbers - 2023

    I’m taking nothing away from Spud when I say this, but if the club didn’t permanently retire number 1 after Barker’s passing then I don’t see them permanently retiring number 2.

    Rules "Players Push For Pure Five-Man Bench" (The Age)

    Why not just make the three emergencies available for an injury sub at any time? Protect integrity by enforcing a minimum 1 week unavailability for selection for any player subbed off unless the club can sufficiently justify their decision (to sub said player) to an independent medical...

    Memberships 2023 St.Kilda Membership Thread

    Shout out to our membership team. They worked around my rather difficult communication barrier and even extended an offer made to me, to my partner, after the payment deadline had passed. Sure, they were getting extra money out of me but I wasn’t adding another membership so anyone else might’ve...

    No Oppo Supporters St.Kilda sack Brett Ratten

    Does anyone else feel differently about the media pile-on this time around? Usually their brigading against the club frustrates me in times like this, but this time I’m finding it quite funny because anyone with half a clue knows it was the right decision, as harsh as it might’ve been for Brett...
