I feel this has been covered in news articles and I'm not sure it really counts, especially not as prodigal lol. He was never going to play for that club

"prodigal son" Do you mean prodigious? 'Prodigal son' means he left and returned, which he has not done lol

Strong disagree. It's earned for the club that holds it, and it's motivation for the other 17 to outdo them.

Came here to post my own tweet only to discover it's been done 😂

I don't mean to be crass but did the designers think about this jumper before finalising the design? Like the rainbows on front and back meeting on the sides is a very interesting pattern, one which they probably should have tested before releasing.

Turns out his management didn't do s**t. Might not be going anywhere after all.

The NRL's done Magic Round in Brisbane for four or five years now hasn't it?

That might be the opening line, but the closing line literally says Craig Kelly was approached for comment and didn't provide one - so I'm not sure how true it is

Robbo with the goss. Apparently it's our idea? https://www.heraldsun.com.au/sport/afl/afl-fixture-2024-collingwood-propose-sydney-season-opener/news-story/9f41785088f382d3417d5e74a68ee9ba Collingwood is proposing an interstate extravaganza in 2024, hoping for a round 1 fixture against Sydney...

Precisely Only one club has gone away interstate to open their reigning premiership season in the last decade - WCE to Brisbane in 2019.

https://www.afl.com.au/news/1054725/afl-floats-sydney-double-header-to-open-2024-season-giants-collingwood-swans-melbourne-carlton-richmond A standalone NSW weekend with GWS hosting us Saturday into Swans hosting Dees on Sunday to "open" the season The report suggests we then get a weekend off...

As someone who follows both codes, I find this perplexing. My understanding of the NRL's Las Vegas thing - which is what the AFL is supposedly trying to take advantage of - is that it's simply part of a full round. It's just two of the eight NRL games will be played in America, the other 6 will...

AFL.com.au reporting a staggered season start. GWS v Collingwood and Sydney v Melbourne - both Sydney team home games - played a weekend before the official full Round 1 (including those four teams in different matches). The four clubs playing that early weekend would then not play in an early...

Hasn't about half the years since 2014 had the stadium (or parts thereof) in redevelopment? Fixture quirks happen like that all the time - e.g. Carlton not playing in Adelaide for an eon, Sydney not playing Collingwood in Melbourne etc

Sure, but your snide joke aside, they will not schedule a game less than 72 hours after a concert has been on the surface. The stadium and AFL won't recommend it. Simple

Associations like this in any area rarely have high visibility and even then only then when large amounts of people find them useful. Same way we don't really hear much from Players Associations (IMO anyway) unless it's CBA time

The Melbourne Football Club can confirm that Clayton Oliver was admitted to hospital. Clayton was transported to hospital via ambulance, following a medical episode. The hospital completed a number of tests and Clayton has since been discharged from hospital and is recovering at home. The...

Or, players are now on holidays and not required to run their health management by their club. If a player is injured or sick overseas they're not going to wait til they get home, for example

Pink is performing Wed and Thu ahead of Round 1 - Marvel Stadium will not be available. Zero chance the turf is ready for any day of the weekend.

Yeah absolutely no need for them to put out a statement unless something actually has happened. All it would do is give the people/person who started the rumour more notoriety

Throwing a prediction out Thu 7:20 - RIC v CAR at the MCG Fri 7.50 - COL v WB at the MCG Sat 1:45 - NM v WCE at Blundstone Arena Sat 2:10 - PAFC v BL at Adelaide Oval Sat 4:35 - GC v STK at Heritage Bank Sat 7:25 - MEL v GEE at MCG Sun 1:10 - GWS v SYD at Giants Sun 3:20 - ESS v HAW at MCG...

eh? Tickets don't go on sale til next Monday regardless.

I feel like the title of this thread should be more "what is your ideal fixture". 2024 won't be markedly different to 2023 in terms of season structure. They won't be reducing the number of rounds/games. It'll run roughly the same timeline and the byes will be spread of 3 or 4 rounds as per.

My gut feel on this is that they are still trying to figure out when to schedule Brisbane's Saturday prelim. The Broncos have already got Sat night 7:50pm locked in, so its down to whether they want to go head-to-head with that or play it earlier and allow dual-code fans to do both and avoid...

My face is enough of a turn off, don't worry 😉

Where the * is the ******* Round 24 fixture? This is getting ridiculous. Anyway my prediction: Dogs, WCE, Dees, Hawks, Freo and Port can't be Friday night FRIDAY 7:50 Essendon v Collingwood @ MCG (7) SATURDAY 1:45 North Melbourne v Gold Coast @ Blundstone (Fox) 2:10 Sydney v Melbourne @...

This x 100000 Carlton got a free on Friday night when two of their players spoiled each other for which I'm certain the umpire thought was actually a Collingwood player. If you think it's not an issue for players or umpires you're kidding yourself. And to the Geelong query earlier - that's a...

Aren't you the boss of the forum? Just turn reactions off if you hate them so much :tearsofjoy:

The maximum contrast for a Collingwood v Carlton game is for Collingwood to wear its home kit, Carlton in its all white clash kit. Anything else is fanciful. The maximum contrast for a Carlton v Collingwood game is for Carlton to wear its home kit, and Collingwood in its white clash kit...
