wouldn't be too concerned, it only works on the average teams

yeah that wasn't the point in dispute, but yes, you won

how to make a compelling argument on BigFooty in two steps: 1. create an alternate reality where your team got to erase and redo every mistake and missed kick, but the opposition plays the same as they did in the real world 2. point to your fantasy scoreline and say "see! it wasn't luck"

it's a clear sign of fan who only watches their team and not the game if they think their players having a poor performance is somehow a mark against the opposition. highly delusional if you took anything away from this game other than Fremantle and Carlton being more or less on the same level...

nailed it, imo.

professional sports is not a regular business. every player has a public-facing role that comes with media and community engagement commitments, as well as either direct or indirect corporate sponsorship obligations. all of that means they have a greater responsibility to uphold a certain...

respectfully, what the *

you just know the blokes who relish saying that cannot dress themselves for s**t

two of the three mark of the year nominations from this weekend were clean knees to the back of the head (and the third was a hip bump to the head). they're definitely less common within all marking contests, but when they pay off they are immediately elevated to the highlight reel and used to...

some people are so desperate to appear tough on crime, they lose empathy for victims

I don't know you or how you behave offline, but if your impulse here is to jump on the internet and be a tedious pedant to people exhibiting empathy about a broken family, that is also deeply sad, arrogant, inconsiderate, ignorant and dumb.

he's a father who has potentially blown a second chance with his career, freedom and family. it's sad.

could be as simple as someone being present at the time. supremely stupid, whatever the circumstances.

this is straight-up delusion.

led our contested possessions and clearances, plus equal second in tackles, with by far the lowest TOG of the mids tonight. the latter is his biggest issue.

just a knee jerk contrarian response from people drawn in by the usual reactionary grifters who've made media careers out of stoking a culture war, moaning about anything remotely progressive or empathetic being 'virtue signalling' by the woke, acting as if their values and beliefs are being...

I'm with you. The visuals are slick but I can't stand the song. Sounds jarringly American and super corny, more like an Wildcats/NBL intro package than a blue-collar footy club. Hope it doesn't find its way into our pregame but suspect it will.

the reality of who gets squeezed out of the midfield is whoever is injured. how often have we ever had our best players in one line all available for a significant stretch?

Who knows, we might already be there, but I'd guess two more would be fine. It's probably more about whether you think boosting the talent pool means raising the floor or the ceiling. Even the NBA with first pick of the talent churns through relatively average players at the end of rosters that...

I don't think it's that simple. If you halve the amount of jobs in AFL, you aren't necessarily keeping the best half of the talent. With a tougher pathway onto a list, other sports or career options become more appealing, and the best players now weren't necessarily the best draftees. Halve the...

the forgotten man at Fremantle for a long time, but a reliable contributor. biggest knock for me is he can be a bit of a slow decision maker. hope he goes well for you and I think he will :thumbsu:

he just strikes me as a bit of an idiot who maybe got carried away enjoying having his ego pumped up. maybe he'll regret it, maybe not, but it's his right to decide what to do. for us though: great athlete, handy player, seemingly universally liked, but ultimately not particularly motivated by...

not a great sign when you're asked "what about the club appeals to you?" and your answers, in order, are: 1. great location 2. the history of the club 3. nice location again 4. the coach (who prob won't be there)

how about leave his position on the church board or use that position to disendorse the comments? clearly he cannot be on the board of an organisation that preaches that homosexuality is a sin and the CEO of an another that celebrates diversity and advocates for gay rights. he made his choice...

cool trick but none of that actually works. the only one suggesting banning religion here is you (and quite fanatically for some reason?) and from my understanding of those with faith, appealing to a higher power to have challenging things removed might apply to, say, relief from an illness or...

it's funny how the religious often only see control or oppression as the solution to everything

hate does not materialise only through action. there are hateful thoughts and hateful acts. ignorance or delusion does not preclude hate, they often are the root of it. whether the thought of gay people minding their own business boils his blood or just fills him with pity or disgust is...

I can't really put into words why, but despite having lived in Sydney and previously half-supporting the Swans as a 2nd team, I think I'd prefer Geelong

yeah this. I would be shocked if anything like the Clarkson allegations came up at Freo, but I'd almost equally be surprised if nothing came out of a proper investigation into us. the 90s and early 2000s were a different time and a long time ago now. and even in recent years, it only takes one...

it's almost like they weren't privy to the secret goings on at another club
