    AFL overtaking NRL in QLD

    Original post referred to rev from football operations I thought though, unless I've misunderstood. Broncos and Cowboys total rev is jacked up by gaming isn't it?

    AFL overtaking NRL in QLD

    Really? I did a quick google and figured from what I can see Wigan, Leeds & St Helens probably easily ahead or at least match? Disclaimer: I literally give no shits about the debate, just interested at your point about the rev generation, if accurate that's pretty interesting.

    Rumour Future of the club (Bevo, board, assistant coaches, football department)

    Is your knowledge of the game sophisticated enough? :rolleyes: :$

    No. Your ''point'' completely lacks, well, a point.

    The Bulldogs and Umpires: Time for a Royal Commission?

    So is your point that the Bulldogs are coached to do it, or that other teams also coach to do it but a couple of Bulldogs players are more effective at it? If you've spent pages in this thread saying it, I gotta tell you I'm still not sure what it is you're trying to say.

    Absolutely, looking forward to a superb game from two great clubs.

    Dees fan getting in early and trying to preempt a loss with umpiring deflections two weeks out from a historic grand final? Weird.

    The Bulldogs and Umpires: Time for a Royal Commission?

    Carrying debt is not equal to 'brink of bankruptcy'. To 2015 we'd posted modest year on year profits, absolutely still carrying a lot of debt and by no means in a strong position, but not about to collapse.

    Let's see this evidence that we were on the brink of bankruptcy please?

    The Bulldogs and Umpires: Time for a Royal Commission?

    Was going to say something along the same lines. BigFooty is at best 10% interesting chat and 90% batshit insanity. So just to re-cap, you're certain that the Bulldogs are getting favoured and your reasons are: - they have a positive free kick differential -it's not hard to believe the AFL...

    The Bulldogs and Umpires: Time for a Royal Commission?

    Oh lordy, the BigFooty community are up in arms. What's the ratio of BigFooty posters/general footy fans I wonder? And the rest of the footy media are all being kept hushed too, under instruction of an organisation that doesn't employ them. Golly, what a dastardly scheme. Read yourself back to...

    The Bulldogs and Umpires: Time for a Royal Commission?

    People still talk about the earth being flat, doesn't mean it is. Again, no, you don't know this. You just think it. Which is fine, go nuts. But it doesn't make it real just because a few people believe it hard enough.

    Didn't say that at all.

    Sweet, tells us a little bit about your credentials and experience in evaluating umpiring performance at the highest level of football

    Who said Williamson was the only competent umpire in the match?

    2021 NHL Season

    Habs fan also, and a huge KK fan. I thought he had a lot of room for improvement but he was a character and I liked watching him. But for the team I'm ok with them not matching, he wasn't worth that contract

    The Bulldogs and Umpires: Time for a Royal Commission?

    My favourite recent one was that Bombers players were demoralised by a few decisions that went against them and that caused them to forget score goals and subsequently lose the game. The suggestion that a member of an elite sporting organisation at the highest level of his sport, is so...

    The Bulldogs and Umpires: Time for a Royal Commission?

    For anybody keen to revisit the "Bulldogs got gifted a flag :mad::mad::mad:" argument though here's a couple of quotes - "The AFL review did not deem the overall umpiring performance to be poor, but the league’s view was that it was beneath the level expected, bearing in mind the...

    The Bulldogs and Umpires: Time for a Royal Commission?

    You've used a lot of words but this was probably the most relevant part for me. There doesn't need to be too many of the football watching public lacking the ability to perform basic reasoning and making these ''XXX player is a cheat'' claims before we end up with persistent repetition of these...

    Opinion Is Jack Macrae Overrated?

    Just quietly, leading the Gary Ayres Award by 6 votes after the weekend. So it seems the coaches rate him.

    The Bulldogs and Umpires: Time for a Royal Commission?

    According to yourself, then yes, perhaps some players do lose this discipline when they're drafted to other clubs because the system that club is choosing to deploy asks them to.

    I'm saying that you're entitled to think what you think, but to say that anybody who doesn't agree with what you think is delusional is ridiculous.

    The Bulldogs and Umpires: Time for a Royal Commission?

    I read your post. That is just as likely to be a result of the discipline that you yourself highlighted. Perhaps, with intent only on winning the ball, they don't stop as often to think about 'contact that should result in a free' and just. keep. hunting. the footy. You're entitled to your...

    The Bulldogs and Umpires: Time for a Royal Commission?

    Sorry what? It's a problem now when players go into a contest and then 'bounce back up and keep going'? This is somehow evidence of playing for frees? ******* lol, this is some next level through the looking glass, parallel universe shitposting. Keep it coming

    The Bulldogs and Umpires: Time for a Royal Commission?

    No, no, i don't need to explain anything. You made the comment that something 'went haywire in favour of the Bulldogs' so back it up. Tell us what you think happened.

    The Bulldogs and Umpires: Time for a Royal Commission?

    So go on then, enlighten us all with your take on what happened. Secret earpieces in the umps with a direct line to Gil? Implants under the skin that give a little electric shock every time a FREEKICKBULLDOGS should be paid? What is it? How is it happening? Who is orchestrating it? What are the...

    The Bulldogs and Umpires: Time for a Royal Commission?

    No look, honestly I'm picking away at your suggestion (which I completely understand you don't actually believe and it was just an idea BTW) because there are genuinely people out there who keep harping on about this hidden agenda to support the club but who never actually give a reason as to...

    The Bulldogs and Umpires: Time for a Royal Commission?

    AFL total attendance in 2021 so far at a nudge under 3.9m. Total attendance at Bulldogs games somewhere around 370k, so if even 50% of that were Bulldogs supporters that's 185k Bulldog bums on seats. 185k out of 3.9 million people. TV ratings, jesus I don't even know where to start with making...
