Then there is the 'Barassi Line"....an imaginary line in Australia that demarcates a divide in the popularity of two major football codes: Australian rules football (AFL) and rugby league. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barassi_Line

A recent study of "coaching trees" ranked Barassi as the 8th most influential VFL/AFL coach: https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fspor.2023.1172264/full ...but there is so much more to this man's influence on the game.

In 2009 , Barrassi chased a man who (allegedly) assaulted a woman. He received bravery award for this efforts: Barassi awarded for bravery Legend.

Board/chair succession planning was poor during MLG's tenure. Hopefully, it improves. Has a replacement for Mathieson been announced?

Until Mezza's explanation, it was not a term that I was familiar with and therefore would not have been able to describe it. Mezza's defintition is good for me.

How would you describe a 'consultancy culture'?

The following advice is coming from a guy that dodged a (unprovoked) pulmonary embolism a few year ago at age 49.... 1. Keep you fingers crossed....s**t can happen to anybody, no matter what. Life is fragile. 2. Hope that you have good genetics....this lessens the odds of s**t happening. But...

88000 people attended the Carlton Collingwood game. The match was a sellout (a few days prior to the match) 12000 empty seats. So how do we explain the 12000 empty seats? 1. Presumably some AFL/club members did not attend and did not pass their tickets on to friends/family. 2. Presumably MCC...

In the NRL, the NRL head of football elite competitions provides a public review each Monday of the weekend's controversial decisions. Here is an example Annesley analyses Verrills tackle on Sorensen Is this a good idea or bad idea for the AFL?

So how s So if you are correct, does this mean that a new director of a publicly listed company is never elected by the shareholders? So what does 9.6 of the attached constitution mean/allow? https://investors.jbhifi.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/JB-Hi-Fi-Limited-Constitution.pdf And...

Really? Maybe in privately owned businesses, which is not a good benchmark for football clubs. What publicly listed company in Australia does not allow the shareholders to elect the directors?

No ...but it is the official position of the AFL appeals board.

6 weeks....that's about right.

6 weeks....that's a lot more appropriate.

A new book on the history of Australian football has just been released. https://www.hardiegrant.com/au/publishing/bookfinder/book/australia_s-game-by-matthew-nicholson/9781743796573 'Australia's Game' is based on almost 25 years of research and the collective effort of four historians (and...

For me it was the day Neil Sacshe never walked again.

25 years ago today, the Fitzroy Football Club played their last game of AFL football. For mine, it is the second saddest day in the history of the VFL/AFL. Lest we forget.

Hall of Fame post.

I thought the same thing....but the AFL is the only league in Australia that does not use that policy.

If you want to know the conspiracies, then head over to BigFooty GWS forum.. This is just a slice of the thinking: "When Brad Scott arrives in his new job, the first thing he will have to do is raze the entire MRO/Tribunal system. Toby will likely be remembered not for suspensions, but rather...

GWS indicated no appeal...which would probably rule our court action. But will the AFL appeal?

11.

So the only question left remaining is whether the AFL or GWS will appeal.

Thanks for clarifying.

The question is simple...does the National Player and Official Deregistration Policy apply to the AFL?

A request for a fine ought to have been preceded by a not guilty plea.

Toby has eight weeks of suspension so far in his career. Does he get de-registered at 16 weeks?

I think it is 16 at non-elite levels. He has been suspended for eight already.

3 weeks or less he is luckiest guy in football. 4-6 weeks is medium. 6-9 weeks is heavy 10+ is proof of Toby Tax
