Cat player drops the ball and the Pies player gets done for holding the man. Happens way too much, and the umpires need to start applying the rules correctly.
Just can’t see us containing Carlton, they are too strong around the ground. Too early in the season to argue that Hawthorn will be anything more than a 12 to 8 (on the ladder kinda side). End of the day, we have beaten the worst team in the league and a depleted Port Adelaide (albeit in...
The only thing Maguiness offers is run, and Phillips can do that. People are too sentimental about keeping Maguiness in the team, and if anyone else had that performance people would be calling for his head.
Anyone who thinks this is a compliment is obviously a man. Women constantly have to consider their safety, and comments like this does nothing to alleviate that.
Langdon > Hill
Lever > Stratton
Jackson > McEvoy
Salem and Birchall are on par
I agree our forward line is much superior (on an individual level), but way too much Hawthorn representation in your team I think.
You can be homophobic and not physically act on it. Only a minority do act on it, the problem is is that this helps to normalise homophobia in our society.
Anyway I am done discussing this with you. You are getting hung up on semantics, I am speaking from the community that is being actively...
While I am sure Zreika won't physically attack any of teammates, the promotion of these homophobic viewpoints continue to put gay people in physical danger (as they have for hundreds of years).
This is definitely a case that is being thrown into the 'too hard basket.' Different circumstances, and the AFL/W would have publicly denounced Zreika's stand.
Many people here can't critically understand that inaction can be just as disriminatory as any action. Women's AFL has for the longest...
Hiding behind your religion is so cowardly, homophobia is unacceptable whether it is for faith-based reasons or not. This whole issue isn't a case of the discriminated vs the discriminated, it is the right to discriminate vs the discriminated.
Also, disgusting that AFLW (and the AFL) has...
As a gay person myself, I am distraught at this news. AFL Womens is supposed to be a very, very safe place for the LGBT+ community. This decision to reject a jumper purely because of its LGBT+ advocacy is hateful and harmful.
I understand that people get excited by pre-season training footage, but I find it kind of funny how optimistic people are getting about 2022 considering every club is releasing the same kind of footage Hawthorn have been.
Really upsetting that many don’t understand that flirting ≠ consent for a dick pic. They are miles away from each other. Also, it’s frustrating that many can’t understand why it is threatening to send lewd photos of yourself to women if it wasn’t explicitly asked for.
Women should have the...
You're right, life is too short. So let's not shorten that for those that are most vulnerable because some choose not to get vaccinated. I always think: people can do whatever they like, as long as it isn't hurting anyone else. That's why I draw the line at people's vaccine decision.
Anyway...
Anti-vaxxers' stance against the vaccine are based in fear and propaganda, not in facts. It's our moral obligation to get vaccinated, and if people can't see that, I don't want to have that friendship moving forward. Screams of selfishness, ignorance and stubborness. Three traits I don't want in...
Fortunately I don't have any anti-vax friends (I live in a high-vax rate area), but if I did, I would walk away from that friendship without hesitation. This issue speaks loudly about a person's selfishness, and lack of basic understanding. I have friends who have walked away from friendships...
I agree. The whole 'whipping boy' concept is really odd, too. Whipping boys are normally just role players, not stars, that are doing their bit. They might not be indespinsble but they're are the best player we have for that role/position that is healthy on the list at the time. Pick the next...
He played a lot of AFL footy last year, but do you genuinely believe Howe is in the best 22 with the return of Day, Jiath and Sicily back from injury? Also, I don't believe Howe is best 22 and I believe he isn't all things being equal. But whether Howe squeezes into the 22 or not, Dawson is a...
I like him, and I think his hard running is underrated. But let's be real, as a half-back/midfielder, we would be looking to play Scrimshaw, Hardwick, Frost, Bramble, Shiels, Phillips, Day, Jiath, Mitchell, O'Meara, Sicily, Worpel and Wingard in front of him. He is more likely to be fighting for...
Yeah apologies, you are right that we offloaded Kennedy after a year of not playing finals. But we also won a premiership the year before, so definitely in a better position than we are now. Kennedy had to break into a strong core of midfielders (one of the best midfields of all time), so I...
Yeah, one game doesn't mean all that much. We also drew with Melbourne, but no one could reasonably suggest that we are equal to the Demons. A great game by us against Sydney, but over the course of the season the Swans played a much better brand of football. As much as I dislike that club, I...
When we were one of the best sides in the league? Yeah, good players do tend to struggle to be a part of the best 22 in those scenarios. When we are a poor-to-average side, players that are not automatic 22 selections in these teams are probably going to struggle to be a valued player in a...
