Damien Barrett to be racist against Aboriginal people for the rest of the year to punish Richmond.
Obviously Richmond's main social messaging is around Aboriginal People through the Korin Gamadji institute, the first AFL club to support the Treaty, the first sporting club in Australia to achieve RAP Elevate status etc. etc. Damien Barrett earned his nickname, Purple, because he's a absolute... -
Game Day Best Xmas Ever
Don't let anyone tell you otherwise, Xmas is obviously all about presents. As everyone knows, it's much better to get better presents than you give. The wider the gap, the better the xmas. I hope you all have the best ever. Stuff yourself with food and grog. Punch on with a relo or 2, and wake... -
Vale Nima Alavi
Underrated IMO. Did his job and the AfL Essendon would have got away with it too, if it wasn't for those meddling kids from ASADA: During the Essendon probe, it was revealed Alavi received raw materials in 2012 to compound a form of hexarelin – a banned peptide that stimulates the production of... -
Society/Culture Do less intelligent people gravitate to conservative/right wing ideology?
This is a thread created for our resident right wing posters, you know, the ones who insist they're Centralists. In a similarly titled thread some of you whinged bitterly (as you do, all the time) that you weren't permitted to derail it by debating a different topic. You passionately wanted to...- Grin

Geelong and Hawthorn. Who has the greater supporter base?
Fascinating question. Last time both clubs missed the finals in the same season was 2006. Their membership numbers back then were about 30,000 each. In todays numbers this would make both of them a little bigger than the Gold Coast Suns and smaller than the GWS Giants. Since then both clubs have... -
Think Tank Hird's the wird
Being soundly beaten by the lols in the race for Clarko, the opportunity opens up for James Hird to return to Tulla. But will Essendon be able to fit him under the soft cap? Being the future greatest coach ever, he's going to come at a premium. He could easily demand at least 4 or 5 mil a season... -
Society/Culture Why do less intelligent people gravitate to conservative/right wing ideology.
Obviously there's overwhelming research linking stupid people with socially conservative and right wing beliefs. I'm not going to argue this very well established fact here. My question is why? For example: Do stupid people find simplistic views of the world more reassuring? My feeling is that...- Grin

Steve Hocking feels his job is done.
Now that all of Steve's rule changes appear to have achieved the AFL's goal of "bringing Richmond back to the field", he's quickly abandoned the job before being proven a failure yet again. But will he be able to help Geelong win their first drug free flag in almost 60 years? I think not. You? -

Lol 3rdmond
In 3 out of the last 4 seasons Richmond has missed out on a top 2 spot to finish 3rd. In the one year they made top 2, they lost to the 3rd finishing team in a prelim. What a joke of a club. Let's all point and laugh at them. Let's speculate about how finishing 3rd yet again this year will work... -
Moved Thread How should MCG tenants be compensated?
When you compare home game advantage, Port, for example, get to play all 11 home games at their home ground, and an 'away' game in China. So that's 12 home games with 11 very clear home ground advantages. MCG tenants like Richmond and Collingwood only get 10 home games on their home ground, all... -
The JahoVic-bias Witness thread

The Law Airlines and refunds.
I notice airlines are offering credits rather than refunds. QANTAS is offering a credit that must be used by th end of 2021. Jetstar is offering a credit where flights need to be booked within 6 months for flights within 12 months of original flights. I have a flight with Jetstar, I recently had...- Grin

Clubs reliant on Pokie revenue hit with double whammy
With pubs and clubs and other venues closing, clubs like Hawthorn and Carlton will be hit extra hard. Should they get additional compensation from the AFL because of the loss of their major income stream?- Grin

Believe it or not
The Blews are spending more on footballers than your club https://www.theage.com.au/sport/afl/carlton-paying-105-per-cent-of-salary-cap-20200303-p546km.html And I thought SOS was taking the piss before they sacked him. Who's the new guy? -
Good luck for your grand final on Sunday Collingwood.
After their absolutely magnificent premiership at Wangaratta in 2017, can the pies make it 2 in 3 years? With at over 1/2 a dozen senior players not playing for the Tigers because of charity match obligations and injury, I think Collingwood is in for a real chance tomorrow. This could well turn... -

They'd have to be really good players though, probably the best at their current club, and they'd need... -
Is Hawthorn now the lowest form of life in the AFL?
I'm not sure. But I reckon they've overtaken West Coast and are mounting serious challenges to Geelong, Carlton and Essendon. https://www.theage.com.au/national/victoria/shot-in-the-groin-hawks-in-court-over-armed-pokies-stick-up-20200130-p53w3t.html -

Now that Big Footy has turned 20, it might be an appropriate time to dig up some classic old threads on the Richmond Forum. Theres been some great ones in the past, some very funny ones as well. My favourite of all time, must have been around the mid 00s, was where you made a post then trolled... -

A question for Geelong 'supporters'
