    Who does the AFL fixture?

    Kim Jong Un? Shocking figuring yet again. Two good games at the same time. Blues keep getting "blockbuster" time slots. I suppose Carlton arr popular because people like to watch a car crash in slow motion?

    Toast Best 23 aged over 30

    Watching Gunston put on another clinic last night got me thinking how many 34yo have won the Coleman. 3 of the top 4 in the 2025 Coleman were aged over 30. Cameron (1st), Gunston (2nd) and Elliott (4th). This is a pretty handy team. The fwd line is unstoppable. Pearce Collins Vlaustin...

    Expansion India trip by Dylan Andrews

    Oh well this is hilarious! The push into China was such a great success that half of China are now Port Power and Saints fans! Having already conquered the middle kingdom dragon it's now time to conquer the Land of Indus - sometimes known as the Subcontinent. Good luck Dylan! (Or - it's...

    Recommitted Jordon Butts [RFA 2026] - name was floated for a move in 2025, stayed

    Not in the starting line-up for Adelaide at the moment Proven himself capable as a solid tall defender. Would be in demand . Especially by the Bulldogs.

    Retiring Jeremy McGovern hangs them up

    Not sure if main thread worthy but a pretty significant career and personality. Hangs them up a year early due to concussion after a 12 year career. Was pretty much impassable for a few years around the Premiership year. Eagles great forced to retire after latest concussion -...

    Rumour Carlton FC

    Surprised we haven't had more rumours but something doesn't smell right at the Blues. McKay and Hollands both out for personal reasons. This seems fairly unusual Is there more to this or just a coincidence? Also seems the whole Sayers/Bupa scandal has been forgotten.

    What is the Richard Pratt medal?

    As if the AFL doesn't have enough meaningless medals already and isn't already corporatised to the max. We now have some monstrosity called the "Richard Pratt medal" I assume for whenever Collingwood play Carlton? Named after some bloke because he was rich? WTF? This guy was involved in...

    Coach Is Clarkson a supercoach or did he just get lucky at the Hawks? Has his time come and gone?

    Maybe Jeff Kenneth was right. Clarkson's last few years at the Hawks he showed a fair bit of of incompetence. Yes ha had a three-peat but he had onfield coaches Hodge and Lewis and Fagan there to keep him in check. Has his time been and gone? Is he really a "genius"? Or just lucky? He seems...

    Rumour Petty sister sledge resurfaces

    So apparently Noah Answerth did a "cry baby" gesture to Harrison Petty. Not sure I have much sympathy for Petty personally but I'm sure there will be a wide range of views on this. Most folk probably won't care either way and may consider this incident.... ummm... rather petty...

    Video technology has come a long way. Is it time for an AFL sin bin?

    https://www.zerohanger.com/introduce-a-sin-bin-to-afl-says-malthouse-5074/ So Im only talking about where an on the spot review shows an absolutely blatant act of thuggery and where a player is taken out of a game. I'm thinking of incidents like Simpkin, Andrew Brayshaw and Brent Saker.

    Toast AFL's Rambos

    We hear a lot about the mummas' boys of the AFL. The "go home factor" and the "flight risks". The JHFs and the Archie Perkins. The "Qld one day and home the next" Josh Shaches.

    Footy in Queensland

    Feels like a watershed moment with the Allies winning the under 18 champs. Along with the Suns and Lions reserves sides are we witnessing the emergence of Qld as legit AFL breeding ground? The AFL would be quietly stoked that their investment is nearing some fruit finally. Is this sustainable...
