Been mentioned many times on this thread alone. I agree on principle, and if the ball clips the post and goes through it should of course still be a goal. The current arrangement is totally ridiculous - every other decent sport worked it out a long time ago. However, hitting the post and...

Totally appreciate that. There's a little part of my soul which evaporates each month when the subscription is paid. If I did watch so much stuff on Foxtel it would be gone in an instant. I steal his newspapers though, so hopefully that makes me a little more Murdoch carbon neutral 😁

Excellent response Rohan, and I'm sure there's plenty of posters here, including myself, that appreciate the fact that you come in and contribute to the BigFooty forum without a pseudonym and in full disclosure mode. Added to this, with so many clickbait-driven, muck-raking gutter-tabloid...

Pheonix, Rats In The Ranks, Janus 👍

Well, there is really. Foxtel. I'm watching it now.

Now here's Tom with the weather

Reminds me of when I tried to watch "Wolf of Wall Street" on an Emirates flight to Dubai about 10 years ago. With all of the editing that the highly conservative Islamic-owned airline imposed on it, the original 180 minute movie ended up going for less than 100 minutes onboard 🤣 I'd imagine...

Come on Satan, as if we'd have a HeraldSun subscription to dodge that paywall. What sort of morons do you take us for? 😁

I think it's wonderful that Clayton Oliver practises his throws at footy training.

Won’t happen. The club simply doesn’t have the mettle for it. Brisbane Lions Lite

Pfft, not at Freo. They are no chance whatsoever of winning a flag in the next 3-4 years, Baker or not.

WTF are you on about? Weightman was a 1st round draft pick and Mansell a pre-season supp list signing. If only we'd bottled our way into a decent draft hand in 2019 rather than winning a flag.

Jeez some of you guys underrate Baker's worth. Anything outside a Top 8 pick or equivalent and it'd be GTFO from me.

Me too, but it was for Sheeds

The good news for DJT though is that today's 14% drop is a quite a bit less than yesterday's 14% drop 😁

Nah, not good enough for us MR. I genuinely think we could (and should) be extracting the equivalent of at least a Top 10 pick for him (Baker), if not more. His whole is greater than the sum of his parts.

Tough ask. If he spends time in the ruck he gets Gawn. If he's key forward he gets May, with Lever third man in the contest. Let's not go too hard on the lad if he underperforms in this one. Maybe just put it down to a further learning opportunity.

That have to go somewhere, and Geelong are just another club that are our competitors. If they can massage their salary cap (and draft picks) to enable it to happen, good luck to them. We're in a different universe to Geelong atm. We're not realistically challenging for a flag in the next 3-4...

I heard the Yze comments as basically a veiled acknowledgement that Dusty was still carrying a bit of an injury. And that moving him into the midfield the week before we have a bye was an unnecessary risk to his next month or so of footy, possibly longer. I suspect he's in cotton wool to an...

It is a very steep learning curve for Mykelti atm. When he finally finds out that he belongs, and starts to really believe it himself, he could be anything. Self belief is a massively important (and underrated) trait in AFL footballers. You just had to have watched it unfold in real time for...

I'd take a punt on Phillips for a 3rd rounder (#40-50-ish)

Those tabloid footy shows are the footy media equivalent of the Facebook comments section. Yes, I agree they are popular and have enough viewers to stay afloat. But that doesn't mean it's not full of flogs commenting just for the sake of being inflammatory. I find what they have to say...

Yeah, I think Mykelti is a very different young man than Sydney. Seems a lot more grounded. Sydney was something of a himselfasexual for the most part.

Same in this country. We've essentially got two right wing parties in the duopoly. Labor are at about 5 o'clock and the Coalition at about 3:30 (probably 4:00 without the Nats onboard). Biden also sits well to the right of 6 o'clock. He only appears a little bit left in comparison to their...

Yep, same here mate. I wrongly called him out as a no hoper too early too. Really loving his progression now. Can't believe how tall he plays in a marking contest for such a short arse.

It's wonderful. Loved everything you're describing about it. The pacing is not for everyone, but meh, I'm never in any great hurry to finish a quality show.

I'll say it because you won't. Richo-like 😂

I reckon he's being a seagull. Just runs around getting cheap +6's to prop up his fantasy score atm. I have no doubt that he'll inevitably develop into a star though. His role will need to change dramatically to achieve that though.

Yeah, they got lucky that Brodie showed up to play for a few months in 2022, but he's cooked now. There's a reason why that Freo team look so much better without him in the team. Shai Bolton is one of those totally unique footballers who's value can't be under-estimated. He would hold a similar...

No, but that's not a question I was responding to. Similarly, there's many ways you can go about building a house, but inheriting a lot of money will make it a whole lot easier.
