    Sunday Outage - Can't connect to BF

    Not sure if this is a coincidence or not, but since the outage I haven't been able to connect to Bigfooty from my normal ISP but I can via my VPN, which takes a different route. Normally connection pathing issues aren't the fault of a site or server it's located on, usually a faulty node...

    AFL Round 6: Western Bulldogs vs Carlton 7:50 AEST @ Docklands

    With about half an hour to go before the big Friday night clash between 16th vs 18th and no thread to be seen, I thought I would make one. I think this could be a more entertaining game than it seems on paper and doubt it will be as one sides as many of the blockbusters have been. Not sure who...

    Full-circle: Scientists blame the Sun for impending Ice Age

    After denialists have been blaming the sun for recent Global Warming, it is not without some irony that now scientists are blaming the sun, predict an impending "mini" Ice Age as soon as 2019/2020 after the sun exhibits a strange phenomena of minimal solar activity, historically a precursor for...

    Scott's message to fans

    I know supporters have postulated about Brad, but with the club signing him up for three more years I hope the supporters can take their opinions for what they are, just opinions, and set them aside and give him the support for the coming season and beyond. Thats not to say you can't be...

    Analysis NMFC 2015 Player Reviews: Translation Edition

    Ben Jacobs: "He performed a play-on, play-off role on Sydney Swans midfielder Daniel Hannebery (in round 11) and the following week against Dylan Shiel from the Giants." We read Tas' Bigfooty posts about using him as a tagger months ago. "They were the same roles in both games … and he's...

    Cost of Living woes

    Opinion The Land That Time Forgot - NMFC Cheersquad

    Firstly, I think everyone associated with running the cheersquad are great people so this isn't really a dig at them. However, in saying that, trying to get into the cheersquad is like going under cover and infiltrating a cult, these memberships are not handled by the club, it is something you...

    Natural Selection, should we interfere?

    I love cats, especially big cats and it makes me sad that they are facing extinction and it is likely by the end of my lifetime that the only big cats left will be ones born and raised in captivity. I have donated a lot of money over the years to help save species from extinction but there is...

    Is the role of relationships changing?

    In a recent article I read the number of single adult Americans has risen from 22% in 1950 to 50.2% in 2014, the first time where single adults outnumber married adults. This is despite the fact it is even easier to meet people and find people who have similar interests online. Has greater...

    Guilty until proven innocent

    Is the fundamental of the tribunal system wrong that we assume guilt, players are penalised and to not even have a chance to have their voice heard before a charge is laid. Clubs are charged a ludicrous sum of money to appeal decisions if they are not successful in a bid by the AFL to deter...

    Defence

    Currently on the ladder after 10 games played we are in third spot for least points conceded with 758, with the only two ahead of us being Swans at #1 with 697 and Fremantle #2 with 711. Port is #4 behind us on 760, Collingwood #6 with 763 and West Coast #7 with 767. It is interesting that us...

    Should our Constitution protect people from radicals?

    Historically speaking hundreds of years ago religion was the foundation of the values we have and the constitution protected the right for people to freely choose to follow whatever religion you want without the manipulation by governments. Social values have changed to become those of the...

    Strategy On the Attack

    Long post about attacking and defending, so don't read if your capacity is two lines of text. I have spoken to people how thrilled to be 3-1 after the first four rounds and knocking off two decent teams in the process, one in the most extreme of conditions (Swans + Away + Wet) which in the past...

    Daniel Merrett - Tough, fair player or Dirty sniper?

    I am not sure what to think of him, seen him a number of times use unnecessary force when tackling or going at the player, but have generally liked players who go into contest in a physical manner. Seems to have some history hurting opposition players but so does someone like Lindsay Thomas and...

    Oppo Camp Garlett watch

    Is the AFL too soft on those who cheat or abuse the system?

    There have been numerous people caught with their hand in the cookie jar, clubs are punished, some people are fined and/or suspended but they are welcome back into the fold, some are still lauded as champions of the game even if they were complicit in salary cap cheating or other offences.

    Economics: Trickle-down theory doesn't work

    I posted a while ago a thread about Unionism and how it is holding Australia back, it is backed by evidence that labour movements destroy industries and cause disturbances in the laws of supply and demand which in turn results in an economic system that chugs along like a misfiring engine...
