If you're into the keeper leagues, I have been running competitions since 2004 using Champion Data scores before Supercoach was a thing. Have a very well organised keeper league that needs a couple of coaches. PM me for more info.

Too high and in the back. Too high free kicks are so ridiculous sometimes. So we have a game that you are allowed to jump up and drive your knee into someone's head, and something I have realised lately, when players are on the ground, many players hit other players high, and because they are...

I reckon Collingwood supporters are the biggest sooks in the AFL. I am a very loyal Pie fan, but if we don't make finals for a three year period, it isn't the end of the world. I think we are our own worst enemy. Look at how many players play into their 30's at the Pies. All of our players bar a...

I have had two sides of Collingwood's on an excel sheet all preseason, and throwing the teams around a bit after each game. I think I will keep this up over the season. Usually I would just have it all in my head. After a loss I would go through the numbers and think what can we change next...

I believe they need to make levels of pay. You can only have so many players on a certain pay bracket. There might be 10 different brackets, and the longer you are in the game, the higher up you go. That way, you can't get sides like Hawks, Swans and Cats just filling their sides with good...

There is a fair bit of talk about how well Geelong are doing having the third man go up for a ruck contest. Blicavs and Stanley killed Power on the weekend. We have two equally good ruckman in Witts and Grundy. Grundy is better around the ground, and Witts is better going up for the ruck. But...

I am not concerned about how Collingwood are performing at the moment, and will not be concerned if we missed the Finals again this year. Lower clubs supporters must shake their heads at those of us Collingwood supporters that whinge and complain when we go through the natural progression that...

Just reading the interview they had with Tarrant, and I can't help but think I would love him back playing. Tarrant was one of my favourite players when he was a forward, and when he was struggling, I came up with a hair brained idea to try him in defence. Supporters jumped all over me at the...

Years ago, I saw an advertisement for Recreation Footy, I was very interested with what I seen. But when I looked at it further, it was a concept that was on the right track, but far from a refined game. Rugby, has Touch Footy. QLD'ers and people in NSW have been playing touch for many years...

Interesting to know how socially media effects players. I was going through my twitter account, and I seen Dane Swan's name. I seen that I was not following Swan, despite me remembering that I was before. So I went to follow him again, and a message came up that I am blocked from following...

From our current list, here is the interstate players on our list. Western Australians Alex Fasolo, Corey Gault, Johnathan Marsh, Heritier Lumumba, Marley Williams, South Australia Brodie Grundy, Ben Kennedy, Jarrod Witts, Tim Broomhead, Matt Scharenberg Queensland Dayne Beams, Jesse White...

I am not really sure whether it is just the AFL, or all other competitions such as Rugby, Soccer, Basketball and other team sports, but the AFL are not very good at evening the playing field for the competition. Not sure I will ever get it in my lifetime, but I just want to see top sides up the...

The second Grand Final participant has been decided by the umpires. We had Jonas on one flank, grab the ball, go to stand up, and was tackled well, and the ball held in. Holding the ball was the incorrect call, because apparently he dived on the ball as the umpire yelled out. Then with seconds...

There has been a bit of talk about how Richmond could of stuffed up a call to kick with the wind on the weekend. I am not drawn into it, because I believe that if the Tigers were up to the challenge, and worked hard in the first quarter, often it is a low scoring affair, and in the last three...

In the years that Essendon were taking possible illegal supplements, it made them look impressive early, and almost unstoppable. After the half way mark, players started dropping like flies. Bringing their ability back to the pack, and derailing their season. In personal experience, I had 6...

I was listening to 3AW this morning, because SEN is harping on about the non Games. Commonwealth to be more precise. 3AW was talking about the measure of success, and it being Flags, and that is it. I think that the Non Games are not interesting for me, because I can't just suddenly turn into a...

While this is no secret to anyone, I would like to just touch on a few things that I have seen in the past couple of days in regards to this. Looks as though the Pies are finished for the year, unless they dig deep and scrape into the finals. I believe there is three more wins in us, in the...

As a Collingwood supporter, I will find that the game will be hard to walk away from completely, but it may well happen soon. It would be a good game if it was an even competition. The Sydney recruitment allowance, ridiculous. Letting Sydney do what they have done with Tippett and Franklin...

Brown on long term injury, promote Martin already. Collingwood so deserve to have Martin go elsewhere next year, and kill us for 200+ games. We are over rating some of our foot soldiers, and not giving this bloke, who more than any other player, has smashed it in the Reserve level. AND he kicks...

I have often discussed my point to racism, and no one has explained it to me. I just don't think people I have spoke to so far really understand the answer, or fully the question. Racism is a terrible thing that people participate in, I get that. I don't consider myself a racist. I understand...

In the later part of this season, we may see for the first time for some time, a full fit list going into the finals. It is quite a headache to select our best side. If everyone was playing their best footy, we will be a very hard team to beat for even the teams like Hawthorn, Port or Geelong...

I hate the look of the VFL league. We have AFL sides aligned to sides like Williamstown, first Collingwood, then Bulldogs, then half of North wasn't it, now stand alone. Other suburban sides are the same. I may of got those alignments with Williamstown wrong, but that is not because I have not...

Who said that was ever an issue in the past. A ruckman works his way to the front of the contest, and uses his strength to hold the other ruckman from running to the drop of the ball. Brodie Grundy has been pulled up for it time and time again, but until now, I haven't seen it too many other...

Often I see marks, and the opposition player makes the player earn it, and gives away a free as well. If they give a fifty meter penalty, it is too harsh, but if they don't may anything, it is not fair that the player gets a free kick and a mark in the one. Like concurrent jail terms, they are...

I can not believe how people view an incident, and have such a wrong opinion on what occurred. 80% of clubs believe that Lindsay Thomas' bump on Ben Reid should of drew a suspension. 14/18 sides is 80% I believe. One of those sides would of been North, who believed Thomas didn't deserve the...

Last night highlighted a need for a change of team structure. There was one thing that was different last night, and it produced one of the best games of the season from one of our most experienced players. Harry played half back flank, and what a difference that was. Up on the wing, Harry is no...

This crap that he was having a go at the media from eating food in his press conference, only to find out that it was Carlton that supplied the food. What an up himself idiot. He really used to annoy me when he was Collingwood coach, because he is SO arrogant, and arrogant grinds on me. The...

In this photo, we have Jessie White closer to the camera, and Witts although further back is still reaching the top of the photo, whereas White is well below. If White is 196cm, it is hard to see that Witts is only 12cm's bigger. If Witts was standing right next to White, then 12cm difference...

Went out for a christmas party last Saturday night, and when it was all over, and we were going home, one of our girlfriends had too much to drink, and we were crossing Clarendon street, and the girls didn't know who we were walking next to, which was Michael Firrito and Mrs. But his Mrs was...

Can't believe this bloke is denying throwing his ex-fiance Lisa Harnum off the balcony. The defence is saying that he forcefully dragged her back into the apartment, where she then broke free, and ran and jumped from the balcony. Seriously, is anyone in the world going to believe that? The...
