So looking towards our next season, as we always seem to do during September of most years, where do we think we'll finish? I remember at this time last year I thought we could finish the 2023 season anywhere between 10th and 5th, based on losing players (experience), getting a tougher fixture...

I love the Appeals Board Its basically like when a little kid whinges about not getting what they want, then they step it up to hard core sooking and screaming and the parent cant be bothered so just gives them what they want anyway to shut them up AFL (parent) Obviously couldnt be that...

Very contentious question this one, but hey why not put it out for discussion. Interesting chatter going around that after Tassie coming, we'll have 19 teams, so the AFL would like to bump that up to 20 for obvious fixturing reasons Eddie McGuire says a consortium wants Perth to get a THIRD AFL...

Pretty useless media outlet anyway but with this story they have excelled to a new low - Injury cheering. Remarkable how media outlets have no accountability or respect, yet they're happy to whinge when they feel threatened - ala what happened to Clarkson recently. Would love to hear some...

I get embarrassed for the player when they cant kick left foot (left footers kicking right are a lost cause, must be genetics). As a bloke who used to pride myself on using both sides I find it both embarrassing and cringeworthy that AFL players - we're talking professional athletes in their...

Hard to get excited by yet AGAIN Richmond v Carlton. WTF! Sooooo boring! who cares. WCE deserve to open the season at home against Collingwood or whoever they want, home or away. Why the worst performed team of recent decades (Carlton) still attract lucrative timeslots amazes me. The...

https://www.perthnow.com.au/sport/fremantle-dockers/tommy-sheridan-reveals-fremantle-dockers-axing-on-social-media-ng-b88997702z All class from the man. he was up and down, but I always felt he tried his best and seemed a great clubman. All the best Tommy. Great to play as much as you did.

2018 would have to be the season where the balance has tipped from players in the AFL now being more "Athletes" than they are "Football Players". It's now obvious that far too much emphasis is put into the player's athletic ability rather than their skill level. It was laughable and...

The fact that Nic Nat has been offered 1 week for this: http://www.afl.com.au/news/2018-05-07/nic-nat-whacked-star-eagle-facing-ban is pathetic, soft and inconsistent. What seriously is this 100+kg ruckman meant to do when laying a tackle, at speed, from behind, on a bloke that is probably half...

I couldn't really hear the coverage of the game but thought it sounded like he was booed a little? Was that the case? Did the commentators say anything about it? Not that I care he presented the medal, just curious about his reception

Horrible what you just did to Lukey Dalhaus. Any other player did that and you'd almost think it's a complete mistake and they didn't mean it, but you my friend are a gutless bottom feeder. Your track record proves it. We don't need dirty and cheap blokes like you in our game.

Unbelievably, several times this season Dockers and Eagles away games haven't been televised "live" into WA - which they have been since the dawn of time! Again today, the Eagles played St Kilda which started at 11.10am WA Time, yet the game wasn't televised until 2pm, absolute joke. The AFL...

This was classic! I didn't see it live myself, but saw this article today. It was classic how BT embarrassed Carey! I guess this is Carey's reality - if he's going to have a dig at others (rightly or wrongly) he may get something fired back...

You guys have a dead set legend at your club in Micky Barlow - I was so sad he left Freo, although I completely understood and agreed with him being moved on. Nevertheless, it was horrible to see him injured again today. He's such a trooper! just the way he maintained his composure as he left...

Hey who's that new Muppet on talking footy and what's his story? Looks like he's trying to impersonate Conan O'Brien and seems just so full of crap. You get the feeling the rest of the panel just think he's a tool.

Now that we could get this guy for next to nothing, do you think it'd be worth it? We have Apeness and Tabs improving well, and potentially McCarthy coming in, but if Cloke came for nothing maybe he'd be a good decoy. Play him out of the square. He'd still have to take the best defender - even...

Does anyone else find it cringeworthy and frustrating watching the modern player execute basic skills??? The main one for me is goal kicking. Every week we see these "professional" footballers miss absolute sitters of goals from set shots. Blokes are kicking it out on the full from almost...

So after the sadness of the 2013 Big Dance, the Birds of Tokyo did a gig after the game on the MCG having not too long before released a new album and a couple hits. Whenever I hear a couple of their songs, it just reminds me of that day. 1 song in particular: (make of the lyrics what you will...

Now i'm a fan of Tennis, and really liking what the new wonder kid Nick Kyrgios is doing, but why the AFL have to plaster him in his grundies all over the cover page of www.afl.com.au is beyond me! Gross

Not sure what's going on in Perth right now, but this is the first article I've even seen in the media over here that slightly plays down Nic Nat. Speaks a lot of sense - not downplaying his potential at all, he has the potential to be the best, but the reality is what he has done to date...

I think the AFL has lost the plot with ticket sales to blockbuster games - not that this is really a new issue but damn it's annoying! For the average punter, getting tickets to the big games like the Grand Final or ANZAC Day clash is near on impossible. Majority of the tickets that would be...

He has been released/not re-signed by Geelong. He still thinks he has a year or two left. For memory his body has held up pretty well. I think we should go for him - he'd come free and cheap, we know what he can do, and he'd buy us a year or two until Tabener or Smith develop further...

Just on TV, they were showing Crowley warming up....... I noticed on the ground in his game day kit was Silvagni warming up!!!! had his boots, socks and footy shorts on.......... Anyone heard anything????

Pretty touching little video. Just an offshoot to a grand final really - these things can bring about some amazing stories. Certainly there's the 50/50 risk of heartbreak and tears as well as joy, but it's still good to see things like this which the club has for 19 years been starved of...

The best footy song by far! This time of year just reminded me of it. Written during a time when footy was "real" and not just a business. Pretty laughable that all the bumps and knocks in the video would be reportable these days! Should have this being played on GF Day!

Wow, Have a look at this. Ross just tore one of the journos a new one! I hadnt heard of "Shane McGuinness" before, but he'll be pretty well known now! Ouch! http://www.afl.com.au/video/2013-09-07/postmatch-freo

Freo have just completely ripped open this finals series now. It's likely Freo will meet Sydney in the prelim - earlier this year the teams played in a draw. they play very similar games styles. if this happens, the game would be an even money bet, even at Subi. Will be an absolute cracker...

Being at work, all i was able to watch was the first quarter. What's the thoughts on reports? I saw Dawson's act, but surely he'll get off. Just touched Pods in the chest, shouldnt have even been a free kick let alone a report. How about Chris Mayne on Johnson? I heard Johnson was just acting?

Sorry to intrude your board guys, and this may be a stupid question, but I rarely get a chance to watch the doggies play, even though I've always had a soft spot for them! Just noticed today their jumper - the old traditional guernsy. love it. How long have they actually been wearing that as...

Was talking to a couple mates who are Eagles fans and mentioned how this year Worsfold looks so stressed, like he has lost weight and just generally doesn't look as fit and healthy as usual. The reply I got was that sadly his marriage has broken down and he's actually shacked up with a younger...
