    Roast Stealing a wage

    I reckon Cripps suffers from trying to do too much because he feels like he needs to compensate for his teammates.

    Review Dees v the Bloods and the Ghosts of Laurie Nash and Bob Pratt: Good, the Bad and thr Fugly

    Better than Lever and Turner??? Give me a break, he was extremely poor. I get it, it's hard to defend some of those inside 50s but he was caught in no man's land way too often, refuses to get body on his opponent and gave up a crucial goal in the last quarter when he just dropped the ball 15m...

    Player Watch #35: Harry Petty – is here for 3 more years, but is not a KPF or a ruck

    Don't blame Goodwin, Petty has been given every opportunity at both ends of the ground to make it and hasn't delivered on his potential other than the odd game usually against poor opposition. Just too mentally and physically soft to make it which is a shame because he seems to have the tools...

    Review Dees v the Bloods and the Ghosts of Laurie Nash and Bob Pratt: Good, the Bad and thr Fugly

    Gawn's best work isn't in the ruck though, it's around the ground. He was sat at FF for periods when the Swans got a run on and couldn't influence the contest. To be honest I'd rather sit him behind the ball in defense instead of FF when Heath is taking the ruck but then I'd probably just bring...

    Which club has the worst guernsey?

    They should have a traditional jumper, yellow yoke with red jumper or something (like the Melbourne jumper). The logo on the front is tacky (although I did really like the pink and black jumper they wore last year, maybe rebrand to those colours it worked for the Hart Foundation).

    St Kilda President Andrew Bassat tees off on the AFL draft system, specifically father/son and the Northern Academies

    Melbourne has made 3 Grand Finals in 62 years. Bulldogs the same, 3 in 72 years. Saints have made 4 since 1966. Essendon hasn't made a GF in 25 years, Carlton 27 years and neither look like making one anytime soon. Not much of an advantage if you can't make it.

    Which Final Ten System is the best option to use post-2028?

    It's not a wildcard, it's just two extra elimination finals. 10 team finals in an 18 team comp is pathetic, just another way to add more "content" for the broadcasters.

    Opinion Essendon - where are they at?

    I guess, like everything these days, the messaging is based on "maintaining engagement". Not with the hardcore supporters because they're not stupid, they know what's going on and more importantly will rock up anyway. But the theatre goers if they hear "2 years rebuild" will just check out...

    Opinion Essendon - where are they at?

    How did we lose to them 🤦‍♂️

    Roast Stealing a wage

    I thought they did well to get the game back on their terms after the Cats got out to an early 4 goal to 1 lead. Midway through the 3rd it was 7 goals each and the Cats were having trouble moving the ball. Blown away in the last obviously but not sure how much of that can be blamed on Clarko.

    Mega Thread VICBias - Genuine Discussion Part 3

    Yes because that is an equivalent hypothetical 🤦‍♂️ More like Susan has joined a company based in Melbourne but lives in Wodonga and expects the company to swing by her place in the Uber on their way to meet the client down the road. What is your solution? Port get 18 home games a year? 😂😂

    Mega Thread VICBias - Genuine Discussion Part 3

    What's the solution? Play 3 or 4 road games in a row to minimise travel? Then they'll complain (rightfully) about being away from home. It's the nature of the competition, they joined a comp based in Melbourne it's a bit rich to then complain about having to travel every other week.

    Autopsy AFL 2026 Round 8 - Crows v Port Fri May 1st 8:10pm AEST/7:40pm (AO)

    ANB absolute stalwart, doesn't get a lot of it but always pops up in the right place and makes his disposals count. Works his arse off and seems like a good bloke too.

    Autopsy AFL 2026 Round 8 - Crows v Port Fri May 1st 8:10pm AEST/7:40pm (AO)

    Unbelievable finish, the right result after the umps almost ripped the game from the Crows with that garbage call taking back the Millera goal.

    In the middle of uploading the 1987 night series games my laptop fan died and I'm having trouble finding a replacement. May be time for a new laptop 😞 I uploaded our 1988 night game v Fitzroy too

    How To How To Change the Time on BigFooty

    Nope Edit - seems to be fixed now although earlier today viewing the Saints/Eagles Gameday thread it was off by half an hour. This post shows the correct time now though 🤷

    Autopsy AFL 2026 Rd 7 - Saints v Eagles - Sun April 26th 1:10pm (Marvel)

    They should review it at the time it happens not 2 minutes later. If they did that then your hypothetical would be irrelevant.

    And the umpire calling a free kick always overrules the umpire calling play on regardless whether they are right/wrong in a better position or not etc

    Autopsy AFL 2026 Rd 7 - Saints v Eagles - Sun April 26th 1:10pm (Marvel)

    Would they review it and bring it back after the siren had gone and the other team were celebrating a flag? They'd already be announcing the Norm Smith before calling it back based on today's farce.

    Autopsy AFL 2026 Rd 7 - Saints v Eagles - Sun April 26th 1:10pm (Marvel)

    And who is the person making the decision in the Arc? Not an umpire, just an anonymous "official". How can they justify 1 the decision to pay the mark 2 the decision to bring it back after 33 seconds of game time 3 the decision not to add time back to the play clock As always, imagine this...

    Andrew Dillon

    Agree but what these short-sighted suits don't realise is that ultimately the best way to ensure the financial health of the competition is to ensure the competitive health of the competition and grass roots footy. Similar to politicians selling public assets on the cheap for a short term sugar...
