This used to happen.
I jusy reckon it's a great way to start the season. Unveil the flag and let the teams resume were the last season finished
Crowd would be huge.
Just a thought.
Premiership team gets home game so they can raise the flag.
Richmond v Carlton is lame and has failed...
this has barely been mentioned
This phenomenal player in Sidebottom
Brownlow runner up ....
This single Handley decided the contest in my view and steel will be waking up with nightmares with hutch standing there like shadow in the night. I actually would have loved to see hutch win the...
last Sunday he was in hospital ...had internal bleeding during the week

Yup I have emotional attachment to him ....as 15...
Always wondered if youre allowed to jump on your own teammates shoulders to touch the ball....mark or goal line
What rule does it break
If you stood in goslsquare whats stopping a high leaping player from using his team mate as a step ladder....
this has been bubbling along now ....numerous threads on the eagles umpiring
Since the change dorected from the Afl only Bret Rosebery has umpired an eagles game
Hmm this is a major concern ...so if a wa umpires an Eagles game he’s goi g to have ore thoughts ....if I give too many to west...
already seeing players sent off now ...in prep for next year
Cues in the rack for weaker teams
Up until about round 10-12 teams still think they can make the 8 ...if your team howvever gets tough teams coming up ....you get the opposite
It’s why the draw is so uneven ...and yes despite a...
free agency is a good thing ....it’s here to stay and gives players the chance to move
But I’d like to see players who stay rewarded ecuase they often sign for way less money
Loyalty bonus
The payment would not be part of the cap and could be say 10% of the average salary
The afl could...
I listened to this fat flog for two hours today and his bias is unbelievable ...he cheer leads
He’s dumb and offers nothing in terms of footy intelligence
All he does is highlight crows good play and questions every single free kick the opposition get ....he’s a joke
everyone whinges about domain factor but 25-12 today
And it's a deliberate bias ..Since saints coach whinged like a two year old the eagles awee have been shafted
Four times today Nelson had his head ripped off...not one was paid yet dodgy calls went saints way all day
What a joke ..
same same for mine
I've had a gutfull of violence and it's now in our game
I was glad to see Ali was charged by police but why not bugg
It was common assault
I bought this game on sunday, as I was bored and thought why not
Th early reviews of this game are mixed I must say
You either love it or loath it. I'm in the almost love it camp I must say. This is not ssx nor is tony Hawke either
Graphics wise it looks a smidgen bland but it's snow...
does this bloke actually do anything else bar announce the Afl and its sponsors, then announce the national anthem
Does he just get a free ticket to every finals game
I can't think of more stupid thing in years than this git
Hell we could sound record it and play it ....why oh why do we...
I think the afl should have loyalty bonus to anyone who has been at a club 14 years (min 220 games) or 300 games which we come first....250 for freo and west coast because travel shortens careers in the west.
And no space taken from the cap .....in Other words boomer Harvey could play on, not...
It just makes sense
Gold Coast are a rabble
They are being raided constantly like Brisbane are ...no one wants to go there
Queensland doesn't need two teams
The fans err spectators that rock up don't know the rules and really don't care
Relocate them to tassie ...give them the best 4...
I watched tye Vickory kick a goal and I reckon the clock went for at least another four to five seconds after the ball has gone over the goal umpires head.
This is rule that needs looking at
Riewoldt nearly marked it 10 seconds later ...but that's it
I know the clock stops when the ump...
It's a joke
I've watched today's game and he's done it 30 times and not one free kick
He never goes for the ball ....he merely steps in the way of the other ruckman
It should be free kick if you don't jump at the ball
.......if this guy is all Australian it's a joke
This was assault
I can't see why they can't
It was one last year in Bunbury where a player was charged with assault for a similar hit
Clear vision, lots of whitnesses also
I think the law needs to be involved if the afl doesn't game strains stand on this
We still see this at lower...

Must be worth 2-3
If lindsay Thomas gets a week for high tackle then what is the penalty for an elbow to someone's face
I suspect...
We don't need 4 umps in the field of play ...what we do need in my view is four umps that are rotated throughout the game
Umpiring is a tough gig and they don't get a break in the game bar half time and so on
It was once estimated they make 5000 decisions a game. Why not sub them in and out...
This guy was fast tracked into the system and he's incompetent and basically favours home sides When he umpires
He was a hopeless footballer and not good enough .....so now we have to put up with him as an umpire
He's clueless and dead set any umpire who wears 23 is saying look at me look at...
The recent media has been all over the AFL.
Got me thinking about other role models for young people as a big part of the reason why the afl says players need to be role models
If we drug tested musicians ....the industry would shut down overnight
It's like its accepted ......yet concert...
Seen a few articles stating April release
The few videos I've seen look awesome
I think this tool has so many possibilities ...I could climb the Eiffel Tower ...swim the English Channel
Ride stages of the Tour de France ........visit space

abc four corners got me thinking about sharks
I love the water, I swim, boogie board and kayak long distances in shark waters of south of wa coastal area (prime white pointer country)
We've seen an increase in attacks

Now I know this will be contraversal....our team is the slowest in the league......in fact I would say its one of the slowest ever and we play on a ground thats 179 meters long
Im stagged when see quick players that are overlooked by us.......many of them indiginous.....why?
YES THEY MIGHT...
