Rare Wines clutch moment???????

They love a good whinge about the FK count on the rare occasion we get the rub of the green. Even when Richo was saying he'd like to see the free kick count at this venue because he reckons the home team would be well on top, I'd be surprised if we alone even broke even. Even with the numbers...

That was ******* superb out the middle, pity about the kick there.

Commentators saying in the side… we literally have a ******* number panel on our jumper that shows you where the back is. And that’s precisely where his left hand was. On top of that though, we sold the farm for 2 key defenders this off-season and yet Burgoyne is in a 1 on 1 as the deepest...

Dixon kicking a goal feels like that one “heartbreaking: the worst person you know made a good point” meme. Was 100% ready to s**t on the campaigner for missing.

Both our goals coming from turnovers is well and truly crazy because it means we haven’t generated a single goal off our own accord. * me.

We got to 9 behinds before a second goal. But nah, they train goal kicking don’t you worry guys.

1.7 is such a ******* lol

Are they not affiliated with Northcote Juniors though? At least when I played they seemed to have a decent amount of sides which could ideally lead to a few senior players when they age out of juniors.

My Rs just dropped next seasons kit which we’ll (hopefully) see in the Championship. I dig it tbh, normally not big on kits that are very white dominant but the hoops with the three shades of blue are pretty nice.

Dunno how much I even want to watch this considering Coburg are playing at roughly the same time. Comparative to where we are on the ladder, nothing seems like a more boring Friday night than Port vs St Kilda. Might have both matches up but I fully expect to be more engaged with the Coburg game...

The funniest thing about this is they seemingly couldn’t decide which AFL logo to use. Either the players one with just the gold inside or the retail heat pressed patch with a thick gold stroke around the white stroke. Instead they went for the middle ground and just made the normally white...

Interesting, I stand corrected on the Liberty logo. I reckon the Dutton logo is probably too bold on yours though, I think there’s a little bit of warping on the ISC image that makes it look slightly thicker than normal.

Had a feeling there was another use of it, though at least to me that feels like it’s from its own distinct era. I’d say the 2013 use is what eventually resulted in it becoming the home jumper again.

Interesting, I imagine they’ll go for something with an older monogram, 1910-1926 style most likely, but it would be really cool to see them go back even further. The 1873-1879 style plain blue with a monogram watermark would be unique in its own way, but the chamois yoke design to commemorate...

There’s something really cool about seeing your version of the designs with the sponsors right as they’re being worn rather than years down the track now that you’re able to show the sponsor logos. Great work as always. Just on Essendon’s design I might sound a bit nitpicky here but both the...

Fitzroy had other factors that imo could never repeat for an AFL club in the present day. Frankly the reason why the V/AFL has only had 1 team fold and 1 merger is down to the fact that it really took a perfect storm to cause them to happen. The AFL is more open to giving out draft and financial...

I find local teams are kind of backwards like this, not very keen to sacrifice home shorts for the sake of reducing a clash even though they still have the advantage of playing at home. Granted this probably looks worse in the photo than in real life given the we can’t see the backs of the...

I think if a club trusts their culture enough to turn him around they might undertake the task. But I wouldn’t want him either, seems too far gone and not a good look to be the club that takes him.

We had a good haul in that draft (obviously) but getting to look at it like this and realising we got two of the three best players with picks 5 and 12 is insane. I tend to think Duursma would be around the edge of this list which was also a solid pick at 18 and even if we don’t have him, we...

I get the sense he has the most upside of the three (MG, Marshall, Lord) provided he doesn’t have recurring trouble with the ACL. I like the idea of our main key forward being a more athletic type than Dixon, hopefully the end of Dixon’s career will see an end to the “bomb it to Dixon” plan we...

Good week for upsets with my Coburg Lions ending their losing streak, West Coast surprising Freo in the Derby, and of course Lalor doing the unthinkable against Kilmore. I was at the Collingwood vs Port game so I didn’t get a chance to see the Bloods game, can someone who watched it please...

Gotta be my favourite too, love a bloke that has a bit of that villain status this club previously thrived off, and he’s skilled enough to let his footy do the talking. Wingard was my first favourite player and I’ve cycled through a few over the years since SPP got here, but JHF might end up...

As the person who hit play on the song, I certainly didn’t want to jinx it so I didn’t plug the aux cord into my laptop until about 25 minutes into the last quarter. But given I only started with that role at the start of 2023, I had not had to worry about doing that ever, I genuinely forgot I...

The only reason I have any faith in us today is because of our record against the Saints in the Hinkley-era (I shudder at the fact it's been long enough to be considered an era). Literally only one loss vs them and in a game where they kicked an unprecedentedly accurate 12.1 for the game, and...

As is often the case, it’s arena related. This reddit comment should be able to explain it better than I can though.

VERY dark for the supposed clash version. Not sure who at head office ticked this one off, I’m sure it won’t clash too much with Richmond given their yellow will be different enough, but far out. It’s as if Essendon are trying their hardest to avoid wearing clash jumpers (save for their actual...

Word is they’ll just be “The Athletics” while they’re in Sacramento. Would’ve been cool to see them rebrand as something like the California Athletics while they’re still based in the same state but alas, only a temporary situation so it won’t matter in the grand scheme of things.

That’s what I’m curious about, is it that or is there another meaning? I’m sure we’ll find out soon enough though.

I like this a lot, big fan of them doing a similar thing to last year where the yoke is part of the artwork rather than just being tacked on, straight lines and all. Not a lot of Indigenous jumpers have been revealed yet but I could see this being one of the better ones this year. Would love to...
