    Is 2020 benefiting the younger sides?

    Blues steam rolling Geelong for 3 quarters. GC currently destroying Adelaide with Rowell looking like the best 1st year player ever already. Are the young sides in the box seat to win the flag this year? The shortened quarters means they dont need the tank like the older players and I think...

    Days since Richmond won a game

    91 days and counting. Will they ever score over 40 again?

    Round 1 thoughts? Impressions?

    In the small sample size we got, what are you revised expectations or surprises? Let's try and keep it free of covid talk and Gil bashing and keep it on the footy. -Nic Nat looked brillant. 2nd best ruck in the league in the game imo behind Grundy. -Brisbanes easy fixture last year flattered...

    PS4 Dreams

    Just picked up Dreams on PS4 and its blowing my mind. Needless to say, I've already made some AFL goal posts and planning to rival AFL evolution. Whose got it and who wants to collaborate on an epic AFL game? So far, megaman is ready to footy. Obviously a real simulation would be a bridge too...

    Congrats Richmond

    I have yet to see a thread just congratulating Richmond for a job well done. As a hardcore WC fan, it hurts to give up the premiership but the Tigers have been the best team since the bye and are deserved winners. Personally, I think the WC gave you a scare a few rounds ago and it would have...

    Coleman Medal Race

    7 weeks to go and the coleman medal race is tightening up. It did look like Cameron was going to run away with it, but he seems to have hit a wall and now theres a number of guys who can win it. Whose your pick? I'm going with Jack Darling because I'm biased and he seems to be hitting his 2018...

    Will Richmond play finals?

    Looking at the run home now and I can't see Richmond playing finals. Geelong, Pies, GWS, Eagles, are locks to play finals. Would take an extreme event to see these teams fall out. Adelaide and Brisbane look like 80-90% chances of playing finals, leaving Port, Freo, Bombers (not a chance imo)...

    A Fox Footy "Footy Show"?

    With the current demise of the footy show on channel 9, it makes me wonder why Fox Footy hasn't tried to get their own version of it. Sure, they have on the couch, up the guts, afl tonight etc. But why haven't they tried a long format of the show? A 7:30-9:30 time slot on Thursday night with a...

    Lachie Whitfield

    Why isn't this guy getting more props in 2019? 40 touches with 3 goals today. Guy has to be up in the top 3 favorites in the brownlow. As far as number 1 picks go, I think he's the best in the last 15 years. How good will he get? Or is this his peak?

    Harder to win a flag in the AFL era?

    Few debates arose in some threads lately about how hard it is to win a flag in the AFL era compared to the VFL era. I am of the opinion it's much harder because of the equalization measures that have been put in place, so for a team to win it these days, a lot has to go right. There were a few...

    Where are the Western Bulldogs at?

    I find the hardest team to predict in 2019 is the Bulldogs. Here is a team that played an amazing month of footy in 2016 and then fell off a cliff. Their youth was outstanding. It's obvious now that they jumped the gun a little bit, but with some more experience into their youth, are they...

    Where are all the AFL biopics?

    And the off season threads begin. Seriously, where are all the Aussie Rules biopics? Movies are cheaper than every to produce and market now and Australia has the talent to produce some great AFL movies, yet, they just don't seem to exist. Yes, we get some movies about the local leagues with...

    WC Eagles 2018 premiers

    Leave your congrats here. I will say nothing because im a little drunk and a flog at the best of times. What a great game of footy. Pies were awesome.

    Toast WC & The Booing

    What are your thoughts on it? Do you like it? Little embarrassed by it? Proud of it? Personally, I think it's great that we have managed to create a collective energy that influences umpires and can turn momentum in games. It has angered me in the past that opposition supporters continue to...

    Coaching from the box.

    In all the major sports around the world i.e soccer, NFL, baseball, basketball, the head coaches are all on the sidelines, talking to players directly. Lately, in the last few weeks, i have seen more AFL coaches leaving the box altogether and coaching from the sidelines too. More than ive ever...

    If we had NN....

    Where do you think we would be right now? Would we have beaten the Hawks and Tigers? Could we be undefeated at the top of the ladder right now? Or are our problems deeper than having a dominate ruck? Personally, I think we would have still lost to the Hawks, there were problems all over the...

    There are no "gimme games" in 2017

    I can't remember a more equal comp in my life. 2017 is the year the equality processes finally come into effect. There is officially no whipping boy this year. The bombers saga is over, and the GC and GWS have developed to a certain point to be competitive every week. Before that, equality...

    Women's Footy a big success?

    Early signs say yes. Nice TV ratings, packed grounds, even a few of my friends have said it was actually entertaining to watch. TV executives are already in meetings to discuss bigger deals next year and matches at bigger grounds. I didnt give it much chance. But seems they may have pulled it...

    Are the Dogs over rated?

    5 minutes into the West Coast v Dogs game, people around the bar were already growining that it was going to be a blowout victory to the Eagles. No one expected the dogs to win the game. Round 23 they lost to Fremantle and were $67 odds to win the flag. 5 weeks later they were premiers. WTF...

    Hawks Revolutionize Tanking

    Hawks are changing the game again. Welcome to tanking in the modern era. Is this legal tanking for a new generation? Give away all your best players in the trade period for nothing, fall down the ladder, and rebuild the entire team quickly.

    Which team is furthest from a flag?

    Which team is furthest from another flag? Personally, not to be an Eagles scumbag here, I think its Freo, simply because besdies Fyfe, there isn't any massive breakout stars under 23. But, it could also be the Hawks. Their window is closing, sure, they won last night to a depleted Roos side, but...

    Should Ben Cousins be inducted tonight?

    Personally, I think he should. Gun of the game. But I can see the other argument that he sets a bad example for younger players coming through the ranks.

    Sick of Fifa, wheres AFL live?

    One thing I have wanted my entire life but have never been able to realise is to see a good AFL video game. I know a quality game of FIFA needs a big budget, but there lies the problem. Why don't the AFL fund a videogame? why don't they put the 10-15 million in needed? They won't make their...

    NN bOSSES Jonas

    source news.com.au Jonas is NN's bitch, suck it Jonas. "Jonas copped a six-match suspension for his elbow to the back of Gaff’s head, which also resulted in thousands of dollars in melee fines after Eagles players flew the flag for their felled teammate. As players descended on Jonas...

    So where now for Cox?

    NN had his best game since 2012. Lycett, although he didn't set the world on fire, took some grabs, kicked a goal, and showed what he could do. With Sinclair having another good day out in the WAFL. The question must be asked. Why do we even play Cox next week? Has the big man played his last game?

    First place supporters only

    You can only post here if your team is top of the ladder. Anyone notice a lot more kick out of the airs so far? Have they been practicing? It's been said the days of goal kickers booting 100 were over. I reckon it will come back into vogue over this season and next.

    Fittest team wins

    Last night Geelong broke away in the last, last week Port ran over Blues in the last, GWS did the same. Are these signs of the interchange cap having an effect? Is the fitness of sides more important then ever now?

    Buddy or Nic Nat?

    With reports Nic Nat is on the verge of a multi million dollar deal, and with several marketing endorsements in the pipeline, he is on course to become one of the best paid players in the game. Nic Nats earning potential, at this stage, certainly comes from his marketability, and only Buddy...

    To GC & GWS Fans

    Who did you support before these teams came in? And why did you decide to swap? Or are you an actual convert? Is the millions the AFL are spending on them and the obvious list advantages they are giving to them actually made you drop rugby?
