Now I'll be the first to admit that I haven't gone through the fixturing implications, but if Victoria's Covid situation continues and the season is in threat due to players refusing to stay away from home for a long time, could a conference system save the day? Conferences would be Victorian...

Given the propensity for the Big Footy to crash when the excitement level exceeds watch grass grow levels, chief is obviously in need of some serious hardware upgrades. I thought we could suggest some simple, cost effectives solution for our down-at-the-heel friend.

One of my favourite cafes just closed down. 2020 can GAGF.

As the title says, if we beat the Lions, and assuming we can pick our preferred ‘home ground’, would you prefer playing at the Gabba or Metricon? We’re 2 wins from 2 games at the Gabba, and 6 from 6 at Metricon (including wins against Geelong, Lions and West Coast). Likely opponents are Geelong...

https://www.afl.com.au/news/442729/magpies-and-tigers-fans-face-off-in-social-comp While I'm normally not one for this type of marketing fairy floss, the idea of lighting up the pies home game in yellow and black tickles my fancy in disturbing and unhealthy ways. Surely these ferals don't have...

I can't believe that with 15 days to go our useless bag of campaigners (also known as posters) haven't come up with a post or thread of the decade! PLEASE ... nominate the best you've known of since you've been here, whether it be 1 year or 10. We'll sort out the rest of the s**t later, but be ready...

Bit of a game. How many tickets will GWS hand over to Tiger supporters by not using their allocation? Each club gets 17,000. Closest to the pin wins interwebs points. 11,216 Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Personally I’m not overly impressed with the directions Gillon McLachlan has taken our great code in. I was wondering about the man and did a bit of research into his history (ok, I spent 5 minutes on Wikipedia). I must say I was very surprised at the breadth of his experience – or should I say...

Sorry mods, I know this will be a lightening rod for all sorts of crapola, but hopefully we can have a moderately civil discussion. As per Mattt's closed thread, Gale has previously stated: "Cardinal George Pell will keep his honorary role at AFL club Richmond as he faces sex offence charges...

The AFL has been pushing for equalisation for some time now. With an 18 team comp and the introduction of the two new teams finally settling down (i.e. the draft is no longer heavily compromised) the last two years may be the new norm. There have been a fair few comments around my team wining...

Purely hypothetical. Lets assume (without any judgement) for the purposes of this thread the following: EFC players will be suspended next season. The EFC is in fact a very valuable asset to the AFL, one which they don't want to lose (little assumption needed here). How will the EFC and AFL...

Renewed yesterday and upgraded to the Maurice Rioli Club. Yeah baby! Have you renewed yet? Inbeforethreadneedsgraf.

Some prick of a mod will probably move this to the music board (not doing myself any favours here am I? :) ), but anyway ... What is the best lyric set you know of? Not a phrase, not a whole song, so approximately between 2-8 lines. Don't tell us where they're from .. let it be guessed...

Thread was inspired by this nice bit of cross town pot shotting: http://www.gwsgiants.com.au/news/2013-10-03/gman-resigns Thanks shepp for posting it. Reading it, I suddenly thought how natural the Giants name and colours felt to me now, and considering I thought it was all a bit "meh" to...

In tears when interviewed by Dermie on fox just now. Looks gone to GWS for all money.

Bawling like a baby while being interviewed on Fox. GWS next year. Edit: s**t, thought it was the MB. :)

I'd like to propose a toast to those opposition supporters who contribute to both this board, and discussions about the RFC across the site as a whole. I am of course not talking about sycophantic sucking up posters, but those opposition supporters who genuinely add to the discussion about our...

A supporter of Team A bet supporter of Team B a slab of beer on "who would finish higher". Note that there is no definition of whether this bet relates to the H&A season or finals. Team B finished the H&A season higher on the ladder (with 4 extra wins), but both teams are now playing in the...

One thing that doesn't seem to have been discussed yet is how the EFC spin has effected it's supporter base, whether trust has been lost, and if so can it be rebuilt or is the damage likely to be enduring? One problem is that the club has allowed a constant narrative early in the year of "we...

To start with, I am absolutely gobsmacked we're currently 5th on the ladder. Better yet, with a potential % booster this week and a very winnable final game we have a damned good chance of maintaining that position come year's end. Yes, yes, some teams have been worse than expected, some...

Hi Guys, I've got 2 free tickets to the Sydney game just waiting for a keen Tiger supporter to use them. You'll need to pick them up from Surry Hills. PM me if you're interested.

If you are an Interstate / Country member and live in Sydney the substitute tickets for the Sydney game are now closed. Having said this, I just called up and got what they said were some of the last tickets available under the substitute scheme. So if you haven't done so call up now. You may...

... was the 23rd of June to the 1st of July 2001. Of course, we went on to finish 4th at the end of the home and away season, and 2001 was the last time we played finals. Ultimately we were bundled out by a rampant Brisbane on their way to the first of their threepeat, but as pleased as I am...

Lets face it, this is what we all want. Teams 7 and 8 have always been uncompetitive, and a bit of a waste of finals time. Teams 5 and 6 could generally be regarded as either "on the cusp" or "sneakies", and worth a punt. But, there is no way we would ever go back to less finals games. So the...

Where are the 23.7 threads laughing at them? Are they the first genuinely untrollable team?

Pretty simple concept that has been done before, but the last one I saw was for 2007 so I thought I'd update it. Ranking = premierships x teams in competition at time / years in competition. Team Premiership Rating Brisbane Lions / Bears 1.846153846 West Coast 1.769230769 Essendon...

Hypothetically speaking, just say the investigation only wraps up in late August (which is what looks likely). The Bombers are top 4 but are found guilty of breaching WADA, with 6-12 players found to have "doped" and facing suspensions. What happens? The AFL is left in a situation where a top...
