Hi folks - it's time for me to move on from being a mod of this great board.
Bit like stab before me, I've probably held on too long. It's a weird feeling. You sometimes end up spending most your time on the boards reading/modding for a period of time that you get to a point you're not...

Where: The Magnificent Adelaide Oval
When: Saturday August 16, 7:10pm
Summary
There is no team I would rather beat than Collingwood. They've beaten us more than any other side in the competition since our inception. They've beaten us in some big games that has really, really hurt...
Righto folks - let get serious...
Who else is upgraded, or has upgraded, to gold membership?
We are legitimately contending this year. Our worst game was against another side fancied for the flag and we had every chance to win that game - as we have most games we've lost.
We'll have to...
Hi folks - club media release this morning let me know that Mattie Robran and Brodie Smith are doing a kick across the torrens comp at 11am today.
Elder park for those interested.
Righto folks - here's a bit of a different idea I don't think I've seen before (I give it 15 minutes for someone to prove me wrong).
Make the best squad you can of AFC listed players for your favourite SANFL side.
A player that has been listed for the AFC and played at least one game for an...
Howdy folks,
Given I was a bit late submitting the questions through to the club, and because it's really not a high priority ;), I gave Fages and Shutts as much time as they wanted to respond to our end of season Q&A.
They came in over night for me - so the next set of posts are what Fages...
Righto gang - the regular season is done and it's finals time. Our first go at finals in 3 years!
As you hopefully recall, Fages our CEO offered at the beginning of the year to respond to a set of questions as both a season preview and season review.
You can review the outcome of our season...
Hi folks - if you are a vic member, or possibly want to be, who is interested in providing input to vic based membership offerings please pm me. The club has reached out to see if we can help out in their Melbourne focus group next week.
Broader membership offerings can be suggested here as...
STATEMENT FROM THE FAMILY OF PHIL WALSH
We wish to thank everyone for their overwhelming kindness, sympathy and support during this most difficult time.
We take comfort in knowing that so many people are thinking of Phil, and us.
Phil loved and adored his family, just as much as we loved and...
Details are starting to come out so lets have on place to discuss the actual event itself. Please don't discuss in other threads.
This could become quite emotive for many of us. Please respect site rules. Please respect each other and Walshy's family and his memory.
I must admit I was tempted...
Whats a better alternative mate. Quite a few guys getting thorugh in later rounds and PSD/RD who end up making it.
Are you saying there are more talented players who don't make it because of the existing pathways? Would you consider those guys to have the mental strength to make it?
On the eve of the season Fages and Walshy managed to find sometime to answer the questions we put to them a few weeks back.
Hope you enjoy the direct feedback from our CEO and Coach - some interesting insights provided.
I let Shuts know we'd be back in touch in a few weeks to give him feedback...
Hi folks Alex has stepped up and setup a tipping comp for our board for this year.
Get involved and feel free to use this thread for the appropriate associated banter ;)
Howdy folks.
We, the moderator team, were discussing The Sloane Ranger getting his silver bullets the other day (and Stabby fading into the sunset) with some of the Admins/Super Mods. (Congrats by the way TSR!). We decided, under recommendation and endorsement of the relevant authorities, to...
Hi folks, as those of you who have been following closely Fages (Andrew Fagan our CEO) has kindly offered to engage with the bigfooty crows board supporter base by responding to a set of questions from as as a 'Season Preview' for 2015. He'll be doing the same as an end of season 'Review' later...
Firstly, let us all just say it was a great opportunity the club gave us to have Bigfooty representatives meet with the CEO and Media Manager. We are excited that there are likely to be similar opportunities in the future, and want to ensure the interaction between the club and this board is...
All,
We've had only a small number of 'incomplete' suggestions to change our scoring system mechanics to use at the end of next season for our Draft Game. Remember, this is just intended as an off-season drafting game to have fun with and fill the non-footy time. The end of season scoring can...
All,
We've had no suggestions to change our 'end of draft best team voting' mechanics. Remember, this is just intended as an off-season drafting game to have fun with and fill the non-footy time. A vote for 'best team' used to be a good way to continue that fun and fill more time.
Just to be...
This thread is to make a final decision for the 2014 AFC Board Draft game on:
- how many players should be drafted
- how many drafts this would be done in and the mechanics.
I've boiled the options down from reading the retro thread and as per usual some great suggestions from Carl.
For...
