More career games for the CFC, but a couple of massive games against North while he was at the Crows including a 6 goal, 24 disposal consensus BOG performance in 2013.
Tough to split IMO
These guys were the 1st, 2nd and 3rd key position forwards taken in the 2015 draft, with Coleman medalists Harry McKay and Charlie Curnow being taken shortly after.
None have lived up to their billing so far, but odds on one of these guys succeeds at their new club.
Which one is it?
Francis...
Not sure what happened to this board, it used to be the best on Bigfooty, but there's just so few threads that get created and very limited discussion on the whole.
The General Metal thread gets a lot of traffic and has a lot of regular contributors, and as much as I have a number of metal...
Before anyone mentions Michael Barlow who was 22 or 23 at the time, I'm talking about players drafted out of TAC or equivalent junior league.
Judd was incredibly good from the get go, more impactful, but wasn't putting up the numbers Daicos is. Selwood and Walsh were both great and played...
Who you got? Can be established role players - eg guys who wont improve, but are consistent week-to-week performers or young players who may jump up a tier or two but are currently in development mode and doing a good job in a specific role.
Mine:
Adelaide - Jordan Butts
Brisbane - Lincoln...
Thoughts on this bloke 5 years in?
Granted he’s coming off a long term injury I’m still yet to see much of a footballer emerging.
Not a midfielder, not a particularly smart or instinctive forward.
Every pre-draft report sold him as a Dusty clone, but also conceded he’d spent very little time...
Keen to see how neutrals rate both brothers.
I’ve been really impressed with Sam this season. Looks a natural intercepting defender, great skills for his height and has shown the ability to move the ball with some real precision. Was involved in a couple of big plays in the Cats front half last...
With the caveat I’m open to taking them once the JLT opens up:
JHF - Just not sold until I see some match play. Absolute gun, but I can see cheaper rookies outscoring
Dunkley - On the radar, but not sure what Bevo is going to do and now has a fit Treloar and Bailey Smith swallowing up more...

Going to say I’m pretty ignorant in general about this, and if this was a reddit thread it’d be post under /r/thingsyoureafraidtoask, but is fat shaming really as egregious as it is made out to be?
Sexuality, race, cultural background etc you are unable to choose and I can see why these are no...
Shakes, Smoothies, Juices - what do we have?
I usually have one of each most days
Iced Coffee (80 cals, 10g protein):
8 ice cubes
250ml water
125 ml light milk or almond milk
1 egg white
2 teaspoon instant coffee
1 teaspoon cocoa powder
2 teaspoon sweetener

In this years draft we have seen the first player taken in the Top 5 hailing from South Sudan.
Allir Allir became the first South Sudanese player to get in the All-Australian team this season.
CJ is tracking to be a star rebounding defender.
Dunno how to broach this exactly but I’m predicting...
Tis The Season. (Almost)
What do we like to rinse over the holiday period?
I’m a sucker for that old 50’s and 60’s sound, and gives me huge nostalgia listening in the lead up and mainly on Christmas Eve. Frank Sinatra, Nat King Cole, Dean Martin.
Sufjan Stevens has a giant Christmas LP, with...
This question could probably be posed on anywhere on this forum, but * it let’s get it going on the former powerhouse of Bigfooty. What are their perceptions of your friends and family about the constructive time you spend talking to anons on the internet?
I have a couple of mates who know I...
Any cool stories?
One of my mates, who was eventually drafted to St Kilda, ended up getting belted by Gary Moorcroft after filling in for our local senior team.
I played against Tom Sheridan at junior level. Nothing really interesting, he was being hyped up as a future AFL player and naturally...
Just wanting to get a bit of insight/advice from dog owners who have had dogs from puppyhood.
My partner and I are adopting an 8 week old Border Collie in a couple of weeks time and need to train the pup.
Have done a bit of research and the general recommendation has been crate training...
I know Richmond are now rubbish, but they did a demolition job on Geelong last week at their home ground and with the Bulldogs and Melbourne looking shaky at times the second half of the year they have to be some shot?
Super even season, all the teams in the Top 4 have clear vulnerabilities -...
Winners:
Carlton - could not believe Mirkov and Boyd fell to picks 6 and 20, I had them at 1 & 2 on my Mid-Season Phantom Draft
Losers
Hawthorn - lost it when they took Newcombe at Pick 2
Over to you Bigfooty
Any fans?
Surprised there isn't already a dedicated thread, but given there's one on Taylor Swift surely there's a couple floating around.
I've only gotten into her music the past couple of years, but I'm now a fan. Norman ******* Rockwell got a heap of deserved hype, and IMO her songwriting...
May as well kick off.
Can’t say say I know many artists who are releasing LP’s this year, but surely there will be plenty given the iso situation last year.
Any big or medium sized names with albums in the pipeline?
Anyone else do this?
I know there’s plenty who find it distracting, but I find it’s similar to soundtracking a movie, and once you hit on the right combination of theme and book it enhances the experience by at least 20%.
I remember reading 1984 and largely listened to Burial and Boards of...
Anyone else got a list?
At The Drive-In – Relationship of Command
The National – Alligator
Radiohead – In Rainbows
Brand New – The Devil & God Are Raging Inside Me
Isis - Panopticon
Elliott Smith – Either/Or
Between The Buried & Me - Colors
Interpol – Turn On The...
Any fans of this band?
I know they're basically a meme these days, but Sunbather remains an awesome album with some of the best moments I have heard in music. The other LP's are pretty good, and have some decent songs, but seem pretty disjointed. There's just way too many ideas and transitions...
I realise this isn't an either/or thing, and bands that are consistent can also be high quality, but over time I've deviated away from artists I feel are almost too consistent but aren't especially creative and their albums don't contain a whole heap of high points.
Fleet Foxes are a perfect...
To allow passionate Victorian footy fans and passionate pissheads the chance to have a BBQ the week after.

Surprised there isn’t a stand-alone thread for these guys given they’ve been around for so long and released a few highly regarded albums, Hopelessness Blues being their standout. I guess on this board in particular we’ve become accustomed to homogenous thread covering everything in one hit...
Going to preface by saying I’ve seen maybe 3-4 games in total, but has anything changed from last year under Ross Lyon?
Still seem ultra-defensive, can’t create play through the middle of the ground and seem to be treading water through another season.
Granted they have gone through a minor...
