    WSYD Betting agency: Will GWS kick a goal?

    Apparently Sportsbet are offering odds on whether GWS will kick even one goal in tomorrow's NAB Cup game(s) at Blacktown. Bit harsh?

    NRl to schedule more games in Western Sydney

    http://www.smh.com.au/rugby-league/league-news/even-in-brisbane-petero-will-add-fuel-to-nrls-fire-20110816-1iwea.html Our friends who pretend there is no threat from GWS are apparently going to compromise their draw so that the 4 NRL clubs in Western Sydney play each other twice at their...

    FTA-TV Ch 10 looking to get back into AFL from 2012

    Herald Sun reports (can't find the link) today that CH 10 is interested in broadcasting footy again from 2012 onwards. There is a possiblility of 2 games both on Saturday being bought off Ch 7. I wonder if Ch 10 have looked the excellent ratings they've been getting for Sat night compared to...

    Which is the better clearing option for the fullback?

    With the modern game tactic of flooding the defensive 50 after after a behind. Which is the better option to clear the ball? Torpedo out of fullback into the centre square with a 50-50 contest? Chip around the defensive 50 until the ball can find a way out? Other?

    FTA-TV AFL easily beats NRL on Friday night

    Last Friday night ratings results show the NRL has far from claimed the night for themselves as some would have you beleive. From the most recent round: AFL 696K - Adel v Geel. NRL 571K - GC v Bri.

    K Hunt at fullback a mistake?

    I was bit surprised to read that Hunt will be lining up at fullback this week for the GC's game against Frankston. For such a pivotal positon, literally the last line of defence this appears a recipe for disaster given Hunt will not be use to manning an opponent, especially a leading...

    'Gubby' Allen a bigger threat than Sheeds!

    It's noteworthy with the hysteria of the Daily Telegraph and their pre-occupation with Kevin Sheedy that they tend to miss the important strides for GWS. Gubby Allen is a recruitment specialist, who assisted greatly with Collingwood's 1990 flag and Brisbane's 3 flags. The AFL has moved...

    Does Ablett spitting from his girlfriend increase the chance of him going to the Gold Coast?

    I'm sure I read somewhere that one of the factors keeping Ablett at Geelong was his girlfriend's (Lauren ) attachment to Geelong. With his father and brother on the GC, now splitting up with his gf make it more likely given less connections? Seems to be dragging on, heard Liam Pickering...

    Will the Swans faithful turn up at Blacktown?

    Just wondering if Swans fans will travel west to Blacktown and fill it to its 10,000 capacity for the NAB Cup game? I note the tickets are bizarrely available from the Rooty Hill RSL (where is Bert Newton when you need him)

    A League a good barometer of support for soccer in Australia

    Hayne hype

    This whole Jarryd Hayne thing makes no sense. Where is the evidence that Hayne has been offered a 'reported' $7.5M by the AFL/GWS?? :cool: He has never played Australian football it would be a huge gamble to spend that sort of money on someone with a totally different skill set. I...
