In 2020 we won 3 games out of 17 (17.6% of matches) and had a percentage of 71.2
In 2021 we won 4.5 games out of 22 (20.4% of matches) and had a percentage of 70.3.
In 2022 we have won 1 game out of 6 (16.7% of matches) and have a percentage of 60.6
Do we think we can improve our percentage...
Only 4 players in the league have ended up averaging 20+ disposals and 1+ goals for the home and away season
Petracca 28.6/1.1
Bontempelli 27.2/1.2
Dusty 22.6/1.2
Degoey 21/1.2
Incredibly Degoey hasn't even made the AA squad.
What Petracca and Bontempelli have done is incredible.
The...
Anyone else got kids trying out for this?
For those that aren’t aware if your son makes the final team there is a cost of $315 involved. With 3 teams per league times 6 leagues that is about $140k to run a few inter league games. What does everyone thing about that cost?
The hawks academy in...
Given the monumental stuff ups from Daniel Andrews just wondering how long people think he has left as the premier of Victoria. I think he might wait until we are over the worst of the second wave and then pull the pin.
Why does anyone ever cash out with one leg to go on a multi. Surely if you are going to cash out at that point the smarter option would be to not put that leg on in the first place?
Our junior footy club is heading down to the game and we have 30 left over tickets. If anyone wants one let me know and I can meet u there -$20 each which is what our club paid.
Just looking at how our forward line could look over the next few years.
Brown
Larkey
Wood
Zurhaar
Thomas
Garner
Plus cameos from Ziebell, Higgins, Sympkin, Cunnington etc.
I think it’s an area of the ground that looks really good moving forward especially given their ages.
The most interesting...
Interested in what everyone thinks was the % of our supporters on Friday. With 48k in attendance what was the approximate number of our fans that attended as a percentage of the crowd
30% - about 14k
35% - about 17k
40% - about 19k
45% - about 22k
50% - about 24k
I was sitting on level 2 aisle...
Thought I would make a thread about what I believe is the most incredible round of football ever played.
Going in to the last round of 1987 the ladder was as follows. These were the days of a final 5.
Carlton 68pts 140%
Hawks 64pts 150%
Sydney 56pts 131%
Nth 54pts 99%
Geelong...
Just watched the local T20 finals today and saw the local batting legend belt 22 off the final over to win the grand final. Needing 20 to win he went 6, 0, 0, 6, 6, 4. He ended up with 87 not out off 42 balls. Team was 4/17 chasing 142 and got up.
Just wondering if anyone else has any great...
I have long had a theory that those people that bat the opposite hand that they bowl, eg right arm bowlers who bat left handed or left arm bowlers who bat right handed have an advantage because their dominant hand is on the top of the batting grip and not the bottom like most people. Since the...
Just wondering what the regular watches if the women’s big bash league think about the standard. I don’t watch it myself but had a conversation with someone who does watch it and he seemed to think that it was really good. I suggested that it wouldn’t be as strong as our local “A” grade league...
So who had stage fright on the biggest stage like Natanui did a few years ago?
Adelaides much vaunted forward line was ordinary (49 inside 50s for only 8 goals) so you could argue Tex Walker (10 touches 2 goals) Eddie Betts (7 touches 1 goal) or Josh Jenkins (7 touches 0 goals) all had...
By my calculations and excluding the 2 new clubs we are now (along with Carlton) the club that has gone longest without making a Grand Final. The AFLs equalisation policies have been fairly successful with all clubs reaching the Grand Final in the last 20 years so given that and the cyclical...
Last night I reckon that Richmond had about 75 percent of the crowd which is nearly 70k supporters.
Given that they are playing an interstate side in the prelim how many tiger supporters could potentially be at that game?
If the play GWS could there be close to 90k tiger supporters at the game...
Not sure if this has been done before but Im from the country and I had a debate with a friend who is from the city about who would have the better side overall. I quickly pointed out that the country side would have a forward line of Lockett,Carey and Ablett which I doubt the city team could...
Two jackpots on the AFL FootyTab for this upcoming weekend. Does anyone on here take these bet types? and is anyone going to have a crack this week with the jackpots available?
With the 8 seemingly settled we have 11 possible finals matchups.
Home or Away vs Syd/GWS/Ad/WC and home finals vs Haw/WBD/Geel
Thought Id rank them in order from easiest(most likely to win) to hardest
1 WC at home
2 GWS at home
3 Haw
4 WBD
5 Ad at home
6 Syd at home
7 Geel
8 WC away
9 GWS...
I usually keep track of who I think is winning each year and I think the club changed the rules about how they give votes for this. Can anyone remind me of the system that the club used last season and if they are going to use it again this year?
Just wondering if anyone on here takes these on the NSW TAB and if you have had any success. Big dividends if you can get them . Pretty sure they average over 100k per week.
If you were to decide the award for our best finals player this year who would you choose?
I think there are a few options
Waite - first 2 finals were superb but just ok in the 3rd.
Goldy - Good in all 3 finals without any absolute blinders like he played through the year
Cunnington - pretty...
Apparently Darnum werent too happy with the umpiring on Saturday. Anyone know if it is true that their coach told the players after the game that the umpires cost them the game?
