    That massive score at the bottom of the screen must go

    My biggest issue with it is that it stretches across 2/3 of the screen during play, a horrible ratio aesthetically. Either go back to the minimalist formats, centralize the scores (like ch 7) or extend the bar to cover the length of the screen permanently (whilst making its height slightly shorter)

    AFL Grand Final AFL 2024 GRAND FINAL: 2024 Premiers BRISBANE LIONS

    We were lucky to be in front at quarter time last week. Plus we have looked laborious and out of sync for the entire last third of the season, only scrounging enough wins to get to the GF by playing cooked teams or due to a few brilliant individual performances, primarily from Heeney...

    Brisbane 2013- now

    The Swans in the mid 90s found themselves in a similar plight. Luke Hodge was their Ron Barassi. A well past their prime player (coach) who went up there and instilled valuable experience and leadership in the early stages of the project Lachie Neale was their Tony Lockett. Not the same...

    Dogs 2016 vs Lions 2024 - who had the better run

    People discount Adelaide's 1998 run because it was under the old system. I argue that makes it even better as their first match would've been against the 8th team (Essendon?) at home, meaning they would've likely advanced to the second week regardless, with the added benefit of an easier home...

    Carlton's lack of having to play Adelaide in South Australia

    Another example, Since 2010, we have played Collingwood in Melbourne ONCE (the Adam Goodes crowd racism game in 2013).

    The downfall of Fox Footy.

    Also I just skip the coaches/players discussions on 360 now. So boring with no content of worth.

    The downfall of Fox Footy.

    Bounce and Best on Ground are just rubbish (why they didn't stick with the excellent Saturday Stretch, I'll never know). Front bar is the best because of its perfect mix of humour, nostalgia and analysis. Also the deep cuts it brings to the fore are superb. Bounce is just a clown show in...

    Fixture Fixture idea - rotating double-ups

    Rotate home games for single fixture match ups too. The fact that we haven't played Collingwood in Victoria since 2013 is frankly ridiculous.

    Prediction Something special is brewing on the Gold Coast in 2022/23

    For the first time ever, they seem like a legitimate club and not just some basket case franchise with no soul. Hopefully with some success, they can get a full house to games. They have more chance than GWS does in this regard due to Victorian expats, the holiday factor and the Queensland...

    Anthony Albanese - How long?

    Not that long if the Labor government insists with third way neoliberal garbage. Will follow the same path as Joe Biden if they insist with it.

    Society/Culture We’ve become a Third World country

    Take out the vaccination crap and everything is spot on. Though we do have massive inequality because of the disparity between economic classes. We are just a few years behind the ****show that is the USA.

    Things that sh*t me the fifteenth part

    When you can't get your car out of a parking spot because the queue for a fast food drive through extends beyond its boundaries. It would be faster to go in and get your food you lazy *****

    Opinion Which club do you hate the most?

    West Coast- Fan base has a real superiority complex and I hated the actual team from the mid 2000s for two obvious reasons. Hawthorn is the same but for last decade. But they are second because I don't have to put up with them as much being on the other side of the country. Additional points...

    Politics How does the left get its political mojo back and win power?

    The problem with most ostensibly 'left' parties nowadays is that they are only left wing on fluffy social issues (or woke as some would say). Most western left parties have simply embraced a diet version of neoliberalism, thus not improving the lives of the working class in any substantial way...

    What is the worst game you have ever watched?

    I looked over cats v pies games for the last few years, just complete garbage. There will have never have been so many consecutive games between two sides which have been so trash. Sent from my SM-A515F using Tapatalk

    What is the worst game you have ever watched?

    Tigers v Swans last year, think it was a combined 3 goals kicked after quarter time.

    AFL is on the decline - the younger generation is just not that into you

    I dont mind a defensive game if its pure pressure, e.g 05 and 09 grand finals. This had all the feel of a pre season scratch match, emphasised by the lack of crowd. Its not surprising in hindsight, hopefully better days are ahead.

    Considering the crowd size, Nick Davis winning goal in 05 SF.

    What is the worst game you have ever watched?

    I had forgotten this one, mercifully. Very definition of "at least its close" type of game.

    What is the worst game you have ever watched?

    Adelaide v Freo this year was putrid. Think it was 4 goals to 3 at three quarter time. Roos v Saints last year good Friday. Worst two in recent times.

    Moved Thread If it's a Rich v Coll GF...

    Only been one all Melbourne grand final since 2001 (technically two but anyway) and the first between two of the historical big four (Collingwood, Carlton, Essendon, Richmond) since 1993. Would be huge but scary around the streets of Melbourne that night.

    Game Day Brisbane Lions v Richmond, Finals Week 1 - 19:25 AEST, Sep 07, 2019

    I think Richmond are the true best side. One slump mid season under mitigating circumstances meant they finished lower than their ability reflects. If the pies and tigers reach the gf (likely), tigers will thrash them. Pies have looked like a 7th-8th team for most of the season, got a few lucky...

    No, Dusty isnt the greatest player of all time. Stop talking nonsense tiger fans.

    Will a player who is not an onballer ever win the Brownlow Medal again?

    This system is just fine. Dont give the AFL any ideas. The only reason Id want the wildcard system is because of the ridiculous bye round before finals, not because of its merit.

    Time for a flexible schedule late in the season

    Richmond v WCE wouldve been almost foolproof. There is the issue of the 5 day break but both had it so its fair. We were at very best going to be at the fringes of the 8, and Melbourne are Melbourne. And this was already a Friday night fixture earlier in the year, why the double up? Im for a...

    The 'battle' for eighth

    Thinking about it a bit more, the 8th placed team on their day may ironically have a decent chance. GWS and Essendon have lots of injuries, Collingwood are playing as bad as the rabble fighting for 8th. Its very bizarre.

    The 'battle' for eighth

    Will the mid table team that stumbles into the 8 be the worst finalist in the AFL era? Crows, Port, Bulldogs, Hawks, Freo and even the Saints all in the fight for this spot and all are at best inconsistent and at worst very poor. Only comparable team I can think of is Essendon in 09. So who...

    Opinion Is the game dead?

    This round has been a new low. Where facepalms and cursing at turnovers have become the norm for neutral games. Lower interchanges seems to be the best way to combat this, or even the introduction of a subs bench (allow 10 changes per game) seem like the best way forward. But it wont solve...
