    List Mgmt. Who makes it out of this group?

    We have a group of young players, all with ability, but who have yet to really cement themselves as first 22 every week. Some have had spells in the team but then found themselves back in the magoos. So out if this group, who will be at the club, best 22 in three years time? Some are obvious...

    Could NAS be the best indigenous player ever?

    If there is any indigenous player at the moment who can challange the Andrew McClouds, and the Goodes in this current era for the best Indigenous player every, I think it's NAS. As an U18 I thought it could be Rankine, but he wont now. Would he need to have premiership glory like Macca and...

    Strategy What should the AFL do with gather round?

    The AFL fell on something quite valuable in gather round. Sure they copied the NRL, but most things are copied from somewhere. SA was the right place to start it, being central to every state, enough quality grounds to play it at, a state that embraced it and a government who financially backed...

    Is Riley Thilthorpe polarising with oppo supporters?

    I was reving up a mate who is a Collingwood supporter about the game last night, and he made the comment that RT is a flog. I didn't think he was that polarising. How do neutrals see him?

    Rumour Laptop X - multiple AFL players and officials caught in videos of drug and sex acts?

    According to the Herald Sun, it could bring down half of Melbourne...

    Rumour Charlie Cameron being a dick at the PGA.

    Apparently when Charlie was at the PGA, people were asking for his autograph or wanted to say hi. He was pretty pissed off and told them they would have to pay him money to talk to him or get his autograph.

    Free Agents are a far bigger issue than academies and F/S, yet people dont complain about it.

    The bed wetting over academies and father sons has reached epic proportions, yet neither are anywhere near as one sided as free agency is. The clubs give up good draft picks for what is essentially a crap shoot. We have had how many academy picks in the last decade, with how many being top...

    Can Port Power win a premiership under Josh Carr?

    Now that we know the Power won't win one under Kenny, what's the chances they can win one under Carr? I think Carr's reign will be a continuance of what was happening under Ken, as I dont think he was the reason the Power wernt winning like some expected them to. I believe Ken got the most out...

    List Mgmt. Gettable- The Adelaide List Build

    A great segment on Gettable about our list build and future.

    Rules Question about point deficits?

    OK, so if a club has a FS or academy prospect that is bid on, if you elect to match but dont have enough points in this year's draft, you can then go into deficit for the following year. Just how far can that be strung over? Say in the 2025 draft a club has an academy kid that's bid on at pick 2...

    Toast Our cheap as chips defence.

    You have to hand it to the list managers, they have created one of the best AFL defences from SFA. We got Jordan Butts for pick 39 in the rookie draft. We got Hinge for free as a delisted FA We got Michaelanny as a father son. We got Nick Murray as a delisted FA in the SSP. We got Keane for...

    Analysis Where is Port Power at list wise?

    They have been deplorable this year, and it begs the question, where are they at list wise? Is the list OK, and Ken is poor, or has Ken done the best with this list? They have a decent young midfield in JHF, Butters, Rozee and Bergman. They have one decent forward in Georgiades. They lost...

    List Mgmt. First round picks are being disadvantaged, AFL needs to address.

    Apparently its been brought up at the AFLPA that the AFL needs to address the issue around First Round picks getting a three year contract when first drafted. As it stands all first rounders have a set 3 year contract, while second and later draft picks have a two year. The issue is that after...

    How far away do you think we are from our peak?

    As I see it we have enteree into our premiership window. We still have alot of upside coming from the younger players (Curtin, Draper) and we already have a number who are entering their peaks (Michaelanny Worrell, Rankine, Thilthorpe, Soligo, Rach etc) and very few at the ends of their careers...

    Toast The real AFL royal family.

    We always talk about which family has the most prestige when it comes to AFL history. Is it the Danihers? The Rilois? How about the Ashcrofts? Daicos? Well there's only one true AFL great family. Its from South Australia. Its the Wanganeen, Burgoyne, Milera and Bond bloodline. Team Point Pearce.

    List Mgmt. Which players could get a 2 miilion a year contract if they were on the open market today?

    Seeing an average player like TDK get a 1.7 million a year contract from St Kilda, which players could hit the 2 million a year if they were on the open market? I'm going to say Darcy and Thilthorpe could get near that. Maybe a Noah Anderson could get a godfather offer from a club as well.

    Does BF have an issue with VPNs?

    Everytime I try to load BF on my phone when using a VPN it times out. Turn off the VPN and it works. It's getting annoying to turn on and off my VPN when switching between my midget pr0n sites and BF. What's up Chief

    Should the AFL give more attention to the winners of the minor premiers at the end of the H&A season?

    Should the AFL give the team that finishes Minor Premiers get more praise from the AFL. Things like bigger money prizes, bigger trophy and a ceremony in the week off before the finals start could help raise the value of finishing first. As it stands, finishing first really gives you no more...

    Does any team have the same firepower we do, or what we could have?

    Hear me out. We obviously have the big three, all capable of kicking five goals in a game. We also have Keays, Rochelle and Rankine who can also kick five in a match. Then, on top of that we have Dawson who can go forward and dominate, remembering he was drafted as a forward in his Jr career...

    We still have one area of game we need to improve.

    And that's clearances. We constantly get beaten in clearances, even to subpar teams like Richmond. It's something I have been talking about for awhile. We have a good backline, but they dont perform well enough in the clearances. Good teams if they are allowed to win clearances like Richmond...

    Analysis AFL vs NRL in Qld

    I am surprised to see that the popularity of AFL in Qld is so close to NRL. AFL is nearing a 50/50 split with NRL as far as popularity goes. For instance, there are more registered AFL players (over 120,000) than NRL players (98,000) in Qld. The average TV audience for an AFL game is 397,000...

    Fixture Do interstate clubs have an advantage from playing more away game?

    There used to be a theory that the more you played away from home the better you become at playing away.. Well, the stats don't really back that up, and some actually show the reverse is true. Collingwood play more games in Victoria historically, yet they tend to play well away, while alot of...

    Coach Which previous coaches do you think are worth another shot?

    AFL is really quick to discard coaches once they have had a go and haven't had success. It's pretty ruthless, and they seem to prefer young guys to the older more experienced heads. In other sports like NFL, alot of the head coaches are quite old, and that experience is valued. There are a...

    Recommitted Lachie Sholl [OOC 2026] - name was floated for a move in 2025, stayed

    Recently brought up by Mark Bickley that Sholl is currently out of favour at Adelaide and could be looking at his options if he isnt back in the side by the end of the year. The emergence of Dan Curtin on the wing, and the trading in of Cummins, Peatling, along with Sid Draper drafted last year...

    Coach Did Hinkley underperform as Power coach?

    Do you think Ken did a good job with an average list, or did he underperform with the list he had? I think that he dis the best he could with the players he had available, and when he goes it might become clear that you need to be careful what you wish for with Power supporters.

    So if there All Australian AFLW team was to play off against an SANFL U19s team like Norwood, who would win and by how much?

    List Mgmt. Should more clubs be willing to hold players to their contacts if they ask for a trade?

    It's always been said that you don't want a player at your club that doesn't want to be there, and that's been the motto of alot of clubs who have traded out players who have requested a trade mid contract. The concern is that the player won't play his best football if he doesn't want to be...

    Josh Rachele vs Nick Watson

    I have these two as very similar players. Both ham it up, both can kick bunches of goals, both are fan favourites with the only point of difference is that Josh is taller and more capable of going through the midfield, even if I think he should stay in the forward 50 all game.

    Recommitted Sam Berry [OOC 2026] - name was floated for a move in 2025, stayed

    Just thought this might be worth putting up here. Berry is too good not to be playing in the AFL, and is getting limited time at Adelaide. He has one year to go on a contract, but at this point in his career he needs to be playing every week, and with the roster at Adelaide, this isn't...

    Player Watch Darcy Fogarty, under rated or over rated?

    Was having a chat to a Power friend of mine and he maintained that Fog was over rated and kicks goals because the best defenders have to go to Tex and Thilthorpe. He thinks that if he was a standalone forward in another team he wouldn't get the goals he does. I accept that as one of the best...
