    Niche domestic cricket references that warm the heart

    Gough - gotta broaden it. It’s all about our game in the country. This is a thread for your Richard Chee Quee references, for your Adelaide Oval pre redevelopment being the greates sports stadium in the world talk, for your why the hell did Victoria play a season in shorts questions.

    The Memphis Grizzlies thread - insert Guns N’ Roses meme

    This thread might just end up being my echo chamber. Glad we pulled back that second game. We tended to talk the talk a bit so to lose like that in game one and be openly mocked by the opposition would have hurt a guy like Ja who has a real chip on the shoulder mentality. Important we continue...

    Jack Macrae V Zach Merret

    Continuation on from a D&T board discussion. Two midfielders below the top rung but incredibly important to their sides. Who is better?

    A collection of some historical articles

    Evening folks, An older gentleman I know in passing through cricket and playing footy with his son passed onto me an old scrapbook of footy articles from what I’d say would be his time from childhood through to the 1970s. Hope these work, could be of interest to some here

    Recommitted Taylor Garner [extended until 2021]

    What’s he worth? Experienced player age wise with a difficult injury history and apparent attitude issues that hasn’t really through injury been able to show anything on field since a good quarter in a final about half a decade ago? Could he be worth a punt with a late 3rd rounder, 4th rounder...

    The Buddy Deal v The Boyd Deal

    Two highly debated deals for key forwards at different ends of the spectrum. One long term deal for a certified gun in his prime who has performed, one for a kid who had junior potential but nothing else save a great performance in a grand final win. Which was better value for their club...

    Dale Morris ACL injury

    Morris injures ACL http://m.westernbulldogs.com.au/news/2019-03-15/morris-injures-acl.mobileapp Sad this could be the end to one of his club’s most inspirational players ever and certainly one of the unsung players of the modern game. Will always be remembered for playing the 2016 finals...

    Jarrad Waite hit on Trengove

    footage up on afl ap. Definitely got him high. Garry Lyon going the character assasination early. Not high impact but probably worth a week or two

    Clay O’Donohue-Smith retires from AFL football, effective immediately

    Injury finally gets the better of 2016 flag hero http://m.afl.com.au/news/2018-07-09/premiership-bulldog-calls-it-quits Sad way to end for a former first round pick but still a great story. 55 games in seven years, three ACL injuries. But his 2016 prelim final performance will be etched in...

    Western Bulldogs 2016 or Richmond 2017

    Looking at the past two premiership finals campaigns Both the Bulldogs in 2016 and Richmond in 2017 overcame a history of adversity to be the best when it counted but what was more impressive? A. A team coming from 7th, winning four finals away from their home ground including two interstate...

    Moved Thread Kangaroos leadership member goes full lol norf

    Reads like a North Melbourne bigfooty poster sooking about their players being trolled. Do you think this just opens up the Roos for more ridicule?

    Matthew Boyd retires

    Will hang them up at the end of the season. From Frankston in the VFL to three time All Australian, triple club best and fairest, premiership player, most games off the rookie list for an AFL player, former club captain. A great career by one of the most honest footballers to pull on the boots.

    North Melbourne's fall from grace

    Has any club ever had such a dramatic drop off? From a credible four finals wins in two seasons over 2014 and 2015 to 9-0 in 2016 it has been alarming. Since that ninth win of 2016 they are seven wins from 29 games and now legitimately contesting for the spoon. I don't think too many other...

    Cunnington throat punch - two weeks down to one

    High, medium impact. McLean was clearly distressed, as anyone who cops an unexpected punch to the throat would. Cunnington has already been fined this year for striking. Automatic one week suspension?

    Nick Riewoldt punch

    Bit of a coward's effort punching a guy not looking at him. Medium impact to the body. Two down to one?

    Premiership Flag unfurling

    forgive me as a bulldogs supporter we haven't won often so perhaps I'm unsure of the etiquette. We've had swans fans and other supporters who have had a go at the Dogs calling us disrespectful for daring to unfurl the flag in a match against our grand final opponents. Now it was our first home...

    The Buddy Franklin investment: has it paid off?

    yes or no? In his time at the swans, buddy has launched Sydney to being one of the league's most respected clubs. Regularly contesting finals, even made two grand finals. Despite two premiership losses, Sydney have record membership numbers (interestingly the Bulldogs made their own million...

    Is salary cap pressure overplayed?

    This isn't a discussion as to the merit of the deals, but the Tom Boyd and Buddy deals are a good example. Swans and Dogs supporters were told they'll lose players due to them wanting money the club couldn't afford to pay under the salary cap. Swans have lost maybe Everitt because of that...
