Hello,
I thought I'd post a chat I had with a friend today and just open the floor to discussion on the state of the AFL media landscape in 2022.
I'd prefer if this didn't end up becoming people arguing about whether Noble deserves to stay or not, I'm not making any point about that and we...
Hello fellow NFL fans,
If you don’t know me, I’m a North fan, stand up comedian and writer.
I got back into watching the NFL this season and have been loving it. The divisional round was one of the best quality rounds of playoff action I’ve seen in any sport!
Anyways, I wrote this piece about...
Is there anywhere that I could find a complete list of the AFL statistics kept by Champion Data?
I don’t need the stats themselves, just a list of which stats and information they actually record. I can’t find it on their website.
Any help much appreciated.

Hi there. I’m in a footy tipping comp where we tip teams and margins.
We have a points system.
Right team/Right Margin - 7 points
Right team/Margin within 10 - 4 points
Right team/margin outside 10 - 2 points
The key to winning is in tipping 4 pointers. We’ve kind of fallen into 11 points...
I know years ago Fox used to have a red button option to just listen to matches without commentary.
I was wondering, is there anywhere or any way one could obtain footage of old (or current) matches without any commentary?

Hi all,
Some of you know that I’m a stand up comedian. Anyway, my show from last year’s comedy festival ‘Pockets of Equality’ has been on the ABC a couple of times and it’s on iView now if anyone wants to watch it.
It’s here... http://iview.abc.net.au/programs/comedy-next-gen/LE1702H008S00...
I think it's clear that this team, even match fit, can't match it with the best teams.
So, come finals (and earlier as players are available) why don't we roll the dice and put all of our injured players straight back in.
If we play safe we'll just get knocked out in Week 1 anyway. I'd...
What it says on the tin.
Im in Sydney this weekend and next and I'd like to watch our match. Where should I go that will be playing it?
Ideally somewhere near the SCG as I'm gonna go and watch Sydney v West Coast. Never been to the SCG before.
Thanks in advance

Hi Eagles fans,
I hope you’re all well this off season. I’m a long time Bigfooty member (registered in 2001!) but also a stand up comedian. I’ve been living in the UK for the past 12 years but I will be doing two shows at Perth Fringeworld next month.
Just posting on here cause I thought...
Interesting and perhaps unique situation on the ladder.
The Bullies are in the 8, 16 points, percentage dead on 100 with 616 points for and 616 points against.
And North are 9th, 16 points with a percentage of 99.9% with 656 points or and 657 points against.
I guess this is by definition...

Hi guys,
Sorry to intrude on the board, I'm a North supporter from Melbourne originally but I live in London now. Just wanted to let you guys know that I'll be in Perth for the first time from tomorrow until Feb 1st performing at Fringeworld.
I've got two shows on the first weekend (this...
Simple question.
If we get through, who would you rather play? Hawks or Port?
This is a really tough one for me. On the one hand it should be easier to play Port since they'd have played 3 straight finals like us.
But there's something about them that's just dangerous. I feel more...
Just got home from a gig and watched the third quarter against Hawthorn.
We're a bloody good team. And we'll show it tonight against the Bombers.
Bring it...bring it all...
Okay, so I'm very disappointed with tonight's match.
But I was the only one who saw shades of the best of last year's North in the last quarter? Once we were 40 points down, we saw the attacking North return.
My point is, can't we use this game plan against teams that we know it works...
What the actual hell is going on with this?
So far this year
Round 1 vs Dons - 24 points behind 12 minutes into the 1st quarter. Lost by 39 points.
Round 2 vs Bulldogs - Didn't concede a start
Round 3 vs Port - 20 points behind 13 minutes into the 1st quarter. Win by 7 points.
Round 4 vs...
I'm on my phone at the moment so can't check the exact stats, but it seems to me that this year more teams are going longer without scoring a goal or scoring one goal in a half.
Recent examples include:
Bulldogs vs Adelaide this week
Freo V North this week
Essendon v Pies this week
Is it just...

I've noticed in a few games this year that the umpires are refusing to blow the whistle, almost to a fault. There are mauls...
I was just watching this (awesome) Youtube clip of after the siren goals.
There's some great ones in there. But the last one they have is Naita's goal to beat us last year. The thing I noticed is that he'd already started coming in to kick when the siren sounded. When he hears the siren...
Hi guys,
Hope you're all dealing with the off season as well as me (not very!)
I saw a talk which had an idea in it which I thought might be beneficial to our team and I wanted to send it to someone at the club to see if they thought it might be something worth doing.
I don't want to...
Hi guys,
Does anyone have a way of getting in touch with OzzyOslo. I'm PMd him on here, but it's off season and I have no idea when he'll get it. I'm gonna be in Oslo this weekend so I'd like to get in touch with him.
Mods, please feel free to delete this thread as soon as I get the...

Gibson won (unsurpisingly), Tim McGennis second then Basti, Atley and McMillan.
The Duke was 7th which is a great result for a 1st year!
God, I'm so starved for footy news that I've...
