    channel 7 2011 promo Does anyone have a copy of the promo channel 7 put together showing 2011 highlights? It was shown during the preliminary final. And featured coldplays 'god put a smile on your face'

    NRL showed AFL up for being weak and gutless

    I could be wrong but member's of rugby league clubs are not member's in the sense of a AFL club. They don't get voting rights at the club. They are nothing more then 'season ticket holders'. In the Storms case they are owned by News Ltd, not by the members. So they could never call a EGM...

    Lions Merchandise

    looks like other clubs (carlton and collingwood are the only ones I've checked) and they are selling them from their websites. But not Brisbane!

    Staging for Frees...should it be punished?

    please don't let the umpires make the decision. They have enough trouble with the game at the moment. But I think naming and shaming is good enough. Make it so that the match review panel names them and then fines them should they be guilty.

    Telstra Dome now Docklands???

    This is only being done to get one back on Collins due to the fact that AFL is trying to get a better deal for clubs (Nth Mel, West Bulldogs) at Docklands. They are smart in doing this - as docklands would need to sort this out pretty quickly to not upset their sponsor. They may want some...

    WSYD If you live in Sydney and didn't go to the Swans v North final last Saturday, why not?

    Brisbane's Worst PLayer?

    Couldn't agree more. He couldn't hit a target to save himself. But Stiller has got to be worst. In fact we turn the ball over a lot as a team and have done so all year. Makes it very hard to win when we haven't even been getting the ball anywhere as much compared to the the teams we've...

    Rushed Behinds

    I actually think deliberate rushed behinds are blight on the game. It's ridiculous that that you can have a team that actively and willingly provides points to the opposition. I think they need to change this so the team that does this actually doesn't get the soft option of resetting...

    What's the story behind Fevola and Nathan Brown?

    On the footy show last week it had shown Brown mouthing off to Fevola after the game. Does anyone know why they hate each other? Or was it in jest?

    Http 403 error - website requires you to login

    Just wondering if anyone can resolve this for me. When accessing a web page, such as afl.com.au, i get in the boxes that show the advertisements this error message. I know it something with my firewall because if they disable that the screens show up, but I'm just unable to find what the...

    Is Ray Chamberlain the biggest Tool in the AFL?

    I actually went to school with him back in Canberra, and he does fit the umpire sterotype. It all made sense when I was watching a game on TV and saw the small boy running run.

    Deliberate rush behinds

    Hands in the back wasn't a massive issue before this year either, but they changed that. And unlike the hands in the back rule, they have been using the NAB cup to look at ways to penalise the deliberate rushed behind. If they ever were going to change this ruling then I would prefer to have...

    Deliberate rush behinds

    We also had defenders put the ball out of bounds deliberately for a long time, and that was also called 'defensive play'. Then they changed the rules so out on the full is a free kick and more recently deliberate out of bounds. If a forward knocked the ball through they would get the point...

    Deliberate rush behinds

    The game looks pretty stupid when players willing give up points. Let's penalise them more, but not affect the way scores are shown as in the NAB cup

    Deliberate rush behinds

    I think it's a better idea then giving 3 points, as in the NAB cup. At the moment no one cares about giving away a point, but they do care about giving up possession of the ball so easy.

    Deliberate rush behinds

    The only reason a team would deliberately rush a behind was so they would gain control of the ball again. I say let the point stand and then have a bounce from 25 meters out from goal. Players would think twice before conceding a point again

    Why aren't Carlton wearing their clash jumper?

    I'm wondering the same thing. Watching the game on TV now and at times, on widescreen shot, it's takes half a second to pick up whos who.

    Membership DOES NOT Have It's Priveleges!

    Your a little confused. Your membership entitles you to ONLY a general admin ticket. You only have to book early if it's a fully ticketed match at the Telstra Dome, meaning you pay for the ticketmaster cost ($3-$4). Now you did say you spoke to ticketek so it would be a Gabba game and if you...

    Does anyone know if the GF will be shown live in the States. In particular New Jersey. If so, what time does the coverage start and on what channel.

    Soccer to call itself "Football"

    When Tom Wills wrote the first laws of the game back in the 1850's he called it Australian Football. Why do we have to change that? If the AFL what to brand 'Australian Football' as AFL because thats what Qld's and NSW call it, why can't they just educate them to call it 'Australian Football'...

    Lions-soccer?

    Brisbane AFC brought the naming rights to Brisbane Lions from the now named Queensland Lions soccer club. When the merger happened, there was a bit of talk that the Brisbane Lions AFC couldn't be called that, but some of the $millions from the merger when on aquiring the name from the now named...

    Night Grand Final

    Day games are the way to go. The atmosphere is just as good during the day then at night. If you need a night game to get pumped for a GF then there is something wrong with you. (Although I will admit the pre-game entertainment might be better at night, but afterall it's the game we are there...

    East Coast ratings: AFL GF vs NRL GF

    IF all you NRL people don't want to include SA and WA ratings because the NRL doesn't complete in those states then the AFL can use the same argument for NSW/QLD country. The AFL only has teams in Brisbane and Sydney, not the country areas, so you can't use those ratings then. CAN YOU ALL SEE...

    Lions Victory Pack

    Now that our winning streak is over in the GF's, I'm going to purchase the 3 DVD pack of the 01-03 GF's. I've noticed that on the Name a game site that it is priced at $70 and at the lions site it is $100. Does anyone know the difference? Is the packaging the same? (It does look different of...

    Australian Rules no more - we play AFL

    Aussie Rules is the name, I've seen it offically branded Australian Football in the laws of the game, but looks like the AFL have changed that. I think though it should be Rules. The other thing to think of is Rugby, isn't that named after a place it was first played in England? So there is...
