And compare that to this dunce below. I haven't posted since 2019, but I'm just chiming in now to remind myself to never make predictions. I really like Franklin, so this post is bizarre. I think hidden in there is dismay that Hawthorn were trying to spread the scoring load and not be so...

Just wait until there's ten minutes to go in the fourth quarter and one team is up by a couple of goals. 'Gotta take a risk now. May as well risk losing by five goals trying to win this game.' :rolleyes:

What the 'open your eyes, there's no jumper clash' brigade fail to understand is how aesthetically pleasing it is to watch two teams in clearly distinguishable colours, especially when you're not particularly invested in the outcome. It makes it easier to create interest in the outcome as I'm...

It's not a perfect solution, but I reckon you could have three games floating, and a month or two out, from those three games, one is chosen for Friday night and then the other two become the Saturday 1.45pm and 2.10pm games.

After the over-complicated gameplan involving the overuse of possession under BS and the turnstile tackling, this game was manna from heaven. I can't remember the last time I saw a premiership favourite taking short steps, not bodying the ball, and simply not wanting to be there. Credit to the...

Can anyone confirm that there is any doubt about it?

Gil cops a bit, but this is one thing the AFL administration has gotten right. Mike Brady was blacklisted under Demetriou. Great to see he's back on an annual basis.

That dude in the yellow jacket putting in as much effort as a bloke hanging out on the edge of the dancefloor on a Saturday night. All he's missing is the schooner.

Mine went through again at $139 (signed up through a Canadian proxy three years ago).

In the Carlton Draught ad, it says a keg of Carlton Draught is changed every 46 seconds, but then the ad shows the 'Carlton Crew' taking 46 seconds to change the keg. It makes no goddamn sense.

I just finished reading an article on suicide and mental health. Jordan Petersen's four reasons not to commit suicide: #1: Other people. You matter to them. Think very, very carefully before you go down that route, because (suicide) will absolutely devastate, in ways you can’t imagine, the...

The quality is awful. Streaming AFL isn't anything like streaming US sports. Last Sunday I was bored and within seconds managed to find a HD stream of the UFC PPV. A little while back, there was no NBA on Saturday, so I had an NHL stream up and running in moments. The one thing stopping me...

Glad I'm not the only one thinking this. Anyone else think it's a bit coincidental that Kim Jong-Un planned the first trip abroad by a NK ruler in 32 years to coincide with the last time Gold Coast will play in China? I'm tipping a lockout.

It's incredible to think they're not full-time. A multi-billion dollar industry with heavy promotion of match-day betting and the three men who can have some influence over the outcome are amateurs. But, luckily the AFL makes the legal betting agencies keep an open book. :rolleyes:

They need to piss the kids off and get grizzled, old, rusted-on members to present the medals to the winning players. It would be incredible TV. A great moment for those presenting and an opportunity for us at home - three sheets to the wind, nacho cheese caught on the corner of the mouth, a...

Not sure what you're all on about? Wasn't it great having them shout out, "Have a look at the crowd!" and "look at Martin!" and "listen to the crowd" and "look at what the ******* camera is focused on!" I kept inadvertently watching my coffee table, so those reminders were pretty damn handy.

I thoroughly enjoyed the Hawthorn vs. Adelaide prelim in 2012. Tippett was legitimately unstoppable and it was a gripping game with the underdog falling just short. Anyone who watched this game couldn't mock Sydney for signing Tippett for $800,000 with a straight face. Plus, it was the first...

The players on their list have accomplished something, though. Ours haven't. Like my post above: Marley Williams and Jarrad Waite are big omissions. That's it. EVW, Wood, Turner, Preuss all have potential. None have demonstrated they have elite potential, yet. Back in 2014-2015 I was...

The only players of any significance missing are Jarrad Waite and Marley Williams. Mason Wood, Turner, EVW, and Preuss are nice 'potential' types.

Ben Jacobs picked Trent Cotchin up at his house on the morning of the elimination final, went with him for a coffee, shadowed him for the rest of the day, and tucked him into bed that night after Cotchin had three touches. All without physicality. I'm not against the physical niggle, per se...

He's never really had an extended run at it. A bit like Bogut in the NBA. Always a different injury, always a weird way of being injured. He's shot now, but he was seriously good at certain points of his career. 242 regular season games since he's been drafted and he's just knocking up his 150th...

Those floss picks don't do the job well enough, in my experience. I use them once or twice a week to clean my teeth when I feel something stuck in there, but once a week I floss properly. Not just straight up and down, but angled to scrape against the tooth one way, then reverse the angle to...

Every AFL bet I have put on has backfired massively. So it's simple. Every week, the NMFC board donates me money to bet on North and we coast to 2017 premiership.

I'm never betting on the AFL again. :(

Don't think North has one.

FWIW, I rang up to do this and they just said, "yep, no worries" and processed my cancellation. Ultimately, I wasn't too upset to lose Foxtel, so if youre going to try this you need to act indecisive so that they think they can keep you with a promotion and you need to be prepared to lose it...

I think most people miss the fact that Foxtel is now the primary contributor to broadcast rights. Foxtel: $1.3 billion Seven: $840 million in cash and $60 million in contra Telstra: $300 million They want top-shelf games, like the Derby and the Showdown, and aren't just going to cop leftovers...

With the AFLW up and running, he's my first nomination for the weekly "which league is this player in?"

They actually expect us to cough up our hard-earned to watch a bonafide scrub in Marley Williams when they completely disrespected Boomer Harvey? Pass.

How good is the new update? :drunk: Can't watch more than one game at a time now and if you're watching on a delay, once the game finishes, it kicks you to the end of the game and you have to manually go back to where you were watching from. The only improvement, as far as I can see, is that...
