    The 'battle' for eighth

    Will the mid table team that stumbles into the 8 be the worst finalist in the AFL era? Crows, Port, Bulldogs, Hawks, Freo and even the Saints all in the fight for this spot and all are at best inconsistent and at worst very poor. Only comparable team I can think of is Essendon in 09. So who...

    Saturday night games- Irrelevant?

    Saturday night games were once one of the most coveted time slots in the fixture. However, this season, it appears to be no longer the case. The games placed in these time slots have been, for the most part, second rate fixtures. For example, this round, instead of getting the showdown on FTA...

    Your sides best ever H + A victory?

    Riding the emotions of a quite frankly incomprehensible game last night was an absolute joy. Said to my mates last night that its the Swans' best home and away victory in my time as a supporter. The great home and away victories tend to be forgotten amongst the best finals victories, so am...

    Norf bidding for every player under the sun. How desperate are this rabble?

    Seems like Norf, the perennial laughing stock and supposedly poverty club of the AFL suddenly have an unlimited salary cap and are being funded by some oil baron. Or are paying their current players like Indian 7-11 workers. Where have Norf picked up the money to suddenly show interest in...

    Channel 7 SD Broadcasts in Perth- A disgrace.

    When will channel 7 Perth come under fire for this? Watching last nights game and today's game between the saints and the eagles and the broadcast quality is simply unacceptable in 2017. Can't even read the guernsey numbers when the camera is zoomed out, and the crowd look like coloured dots...

    Am I the only one who sees the crows as flag favourites?

    Can't believe there hasn't been much speculation about the crows winning the flag this season. They are one of the best attacking juggernauts I have seen in years. Aside from their games against Geelong (who for one reason or another seem to have the wood on them) their lowest score is 97...

    Bings AFL Predictions

    Bing, Google's poor unwanted cousin, has integrated a prediction algorithm for AFL matches into its searches. Search "AFL predictions" and you get some out of whack predictions for the upcoming matches. Now, it could make a big fool out of me, but see for yourself...

    Could this be the most open season since 97/98?

    In 1997, the top team finished with 15 wins, in 1998 only 16. This season, I don't really see a team that is screaming 17+ wins at this point. Which is in stark contrast to some of the seasons in recent times, which have involved a handful of teams racking up 17-20 wins with 5-6 teams just...

    Tertiary and Continuing Need participants for my (short) thesis survey (req: enrolled in Australian University)

    Hello all I am in need of lots of participants for my honours thesis survey. The topic is plagiarism and self-control. The only requirement for participation is that you are currently enrolled (or fairly recently) at an Australian university. This survey will take five minutes, and for your...

    It's time to discuss Sydney's 2015 malaise.

    Creating a negatively tinged thread on the main board about my own team perhaps isn't typical Bigfooty etiquette; but the state of the swans has been an issue at the forefront of my mind for at least six weeks now. The desperately poor football being exhibited by the swans hasn't garnered a lot...

    Live bands on your bucket list that you are still yet to experience.

    I'm sure we all have those bands that for one reason or another have not been able to experience live despite having an utmost admiration of their music. Three bands to start off with for me 1. Sigur Ros- They have toured down here several times, yet for every occasion I have had other...

    Solved User name in red font.

    What does it mean if a member has a username in red font without a "banned" underneath? Ignore?

    Four seasons in, has your opinion on the Big Bash changed?

    When this format was first announced, I didn't warm to it at all. Seemed like tacky and soulless guernsey supporting. But credit to CA for making this into a great product. It's at the right time of year, the size and duration of the tournament is just right and some of the games have been...

    Solved Browser freezes mid-post.

    Not sure if its a browser problem or a comp problem, but ie11 tab freezes frequently in the middle of typing a message (sometimes can get a message sent in time) . these are uni computers so cant use firefox or chrome like I usually do at home.

    FTA-TV Basil Zempilas- Commentary TIPS

    This guy ruins every game he calls with his fake excitement and shrilling pitch, awkward Dennis imitator jokes, his tendency to call something several seconds after it has happened (with the wrong player names) ,rambling about insignificant rubbish and his general inability to generate any sort...

    What Happens if all four home finals are outside Victoria?

    Say the Swans finish first and Freo finish second (and I think those two will finish top two) and Port finish fifth (and a possible showdown with Adelaide in eighth) and Gold Coast finish sixth. Does one of those finals get relocated to Melbourne, and if so, which one? As an aside, would Gold...

    Most unpredictable season since the late 90's?

    Can't believe the number of teams whose form varies so extremely from week to week, making tipping and punting a fairly strenuous task at the moment. Even within games, teams go from looking like Top four material to looking like wooden spoon contenders in the space of a few minutes (Richmond...

    Social Science Strange dreams thread.

    Thought it would be a good idea to make a thread about those truly bizarre dreams you sometimes have, well the ones you remember anyway. Here are a couple I have had in the last couple of days. First one I was in England with my mother, lost in a mountain somewhere. We walked in the snow for...

    Albums of 2011

    I thought I would get in early and create a topic dedicated to the music that will be released in 2011. 2010 was decent enough, but I think 2011 may just better it for mine. Here are some of the great artists that should be release albums next year: Blur Mogwai Primordial Amon Amarth Tool...

    Social Science Do you give money to a beggar?

    Tonight, I had a beggar approach me and he asked me for a coin. I gave him a coin. He asked for 5 dollars and I said no, I needed it for Pizzas (even though I had a lot to spare). My question is, if the beggars at the train stations or on the streets ask you for some money, do you give them...

    Best ORIGINAL movie soundtracks.

    I've been thinking, it is time to obtain some great original movie soundtracks, as they are something that I quite enjoy listening to (well, the few I do have anyway). Would be great if someone could point me in the right direction for some excellent soundtracks. Note that I'm not looking for...

    Has Cricket lost it's soul?

    I write this as my interest in cricket is at a nadir. I didn't even know that there was a test match starting today, until I flicked over to fox sports on the television at my university. I seen an almost empty ground, in crickets apparent stronghold, India. The most grueling format of the...

    FTA-TV Seven- No song after the Swans- Blues game, need to lose the rights.

    What terrible form from channel seven. After the game has finished, they have a couple of interviews with Roos and Kirk and then cut the broadcast out to air their repeat lifestyle show. Now I have no idea why they couldn't hang around for the playing of the song, as it was still 30 minutes...

    This season will have the worst 7th-8th placed teams ever.

    I know last season had Essendon in the finals, but I have never seen a season with so many mediocre teams, two of which will be playing finals and very likely bowing out in the first week. If this isn't an advertisment against the top eight, or gods forbid, the expansion of the finals system in...

    Politics Conroy and his cronies now want to make Anti Virus/Firewall programs compulsory for internet access.

    http://www.itwire.com/it-policy-news/regulation/39894 Honestly, I have never come across another person who is so clueless and seemingly brain dead, never mind the fact that he has a scary amount of power in relation to the future of this country. Has he even thought this over. What about...

    Create the BEST commentary team possible

    There is a lot of bashing relating to the commentating of AFL games around these parts, and rightfully so, but in this spin off, we are creating commentary teams that are actually good. Might have to think a bit harder for this one :D Play by Play: Dennis Cometti and Sandy Roberts Dennis used...

    Bigfooty Battle of the Bands **Discussion**

    Welcome all. Nomination have just about closed for this tournament, and I now have the most challenging job of determining seeds and all the competitors. OUTLINE: At this stage, it is likely there will be 128 artists involved in the game. A very small chance of 256, we will see how the dust...

    Multiplat Final Fantasy XIII

    As the release date gets closer, I am anticipating the next installment of the Final Fantasy series more and more. I can't wait to find out whether the series has returned to it's greatness, or continued down the path of mediocrity after the huge disappointment that was XII. Hopefully they...
