    The AFL and its place in the world of sport as a business

    Interesting report came out this week on sports salaries. Whilst its no surprise that there is a massive gulf between the likes of EPL, La Liga, NFL, NBA etc and the AFL, to see them represented on a graph is startling. Report can be downloaded at http://www.globalsportssalaries.com/

    The Estonian option

What they have is a single portal entrance to all government services, secured with your id card. With this you can request and submit forms, check your over due library books, view your medical...

    Why aren't Geelong and Collingwood bigger rivals?

    It seems that our rivalry against the magpies is of the mundane sort, as its good footy gospel that people hate Collingwood and therefore its nice to beat them. It's no more than say the Bulldog's relationship with them and certainly not to the level of antithesis with Essendon or Carlton. To...

    Geelong Official Mobile App (Android)

    I''m not sure if others are experiencing this, but when the app tries to update, I'm getting an error saying that the app hasn't been signed correctly. Going by comments on play, I'm not the only one. Complete debacle on the part of AFL and Telstra - For the technically minded, signature...

    Solved How do I find out what I am banned for?

This allows the user to read the site but cannot change content and cannot receive pm's, except from staff. They will be able to view...

    FTA-TV Matt Berry

    Is fast becoming the best thing in comedy. Of course that is my own opinion, I guess he is best known for The IT Crowd but he was brilliant in 'Toast of London' - Good news is that a second series has been promised. Be warned it takes an episode or two to get into it. Was also great in...

    With Andrew's resignation seemingly imminent, what has been the legacy of his ten years at the helm. The positive aspects is that under his tenure, the AFL has firmly gripped the mantle of Australia's premier sport. At worst, grass roots footy is suffering and the game compromised by fixturing...

    Article T.W. Wills and the world of Muscular Christianity

    This account on the formation of footy is my own take on how footy came about. I've felt that the generally accepted view of how footy came about didn't really take into account the realities of life at the time. The events of 150 years ago, and the logic behind those events resonate through...

    AFL putting yet more useless regulations into footy

    I was disappointed to read about the latest regulations concerning who can enter 'restricted areas' and the use of mobile phones. http://www.theage.com.au/afl/afl-news/afl-makes-big-call-with-clubs-restricted-to-10-phones-on-match-day-20140206-324ol.html It's all just window dressing to make it...
