The issue with Melbourne isn't a suprise to anybody. It was was very visible and everyone could see it at the time. Yet the AFL denied the existence of this issue, rather than making sufficient efforts to properly uncover it at the time. Not only that, but AD blatantly came out and pretty...

BEN Johnson did not go for the "Premiers" scripting his teammates opted for when he had his left ankle tattooed in the afterglow of Collingwood's 2010 Grand Final win. http://www.news.com.au/sport/afl/collingwood-veteran-ben-johnson-goes-back-to-the-future/story-fnelctok-1226478355403 nice...

the AFL/VFL was never designed to house this many teams in the same league. throughout history it was always 12 teams playing eachother twice every season.. and bad administration saw the introduction of too many teams and the shift to the inequities we have with fixturing today. AFL games...

how bad has he been? is he playing with a broken leg or something? the so called premier midfielder in the competition to have 15 touches with only a few minutes left in the game. and dare i say he has butchered quite a few of those touches. gave away at least one goal with an amateurish...

You wouldnt read about it. If the tigers and the bulldogs get up next week Richmond once again finish 9th.. It's almost becoming a phenomenon.

Does anyone know what the best online streaming options are? with the new season coming i want to actually be able to watch games for a change (i dont have foxtel) happy to pay... is fox sports online EPL on demand any good...

in the past 3 weeks now, 3 times i have experienced major delays going to/from work - and some would say i've had a good run. A normal trip to the city should take me about 40 minutes by train. when this starts taking 1 hour and 10 minutes, 1 hour and 20 minutes, it gets to the point that...

A couple of years ago the question was asked: Who Has the Better Collection of Young Talent - Collingwood or Melbourne? There were some opinions displayed by certain melbourne posters that I at the time thought were laughable. The past 18 months has vindicated my thoughts, and today...

ive been a part of bigfooty for 7-8 years now.. obviously it's grown in that time so it cant possibly be the same forum it was back then.... but one trend i have began to notice of late (probably been going on for a while, but i don't post quite as often these days as i used to) is that the...

what kind of joke is this competition. http://www.heraldsun.com.au/sport/afl/afl-tribunal-changes-allow-players-to-use-provocation-as-a-defence/story-e6frf9jf-1225971660101?from=public_rss so if a player deliberately strikes somebody, he's basically fair game for retaliation??

With presti retiring on 233, lockyer and o'bree on 227 each, it got me looking at the list of our all time games played, and wondering who can crack into the top 10.. i figured it would be nice to have a thread where we predict how many games people end up on (collingwood games only) and...

I keep hearing whispers that an apartment might not be the best of investments, and while i do believe it is probably the case, i've never really heard a proper explanation or anything to back it up.... so anyone have any wisdom to offer?

http://afl.allthestats.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=131:recent-scores&catid=34:all-time&Itemid=56&qry=1&rdfm=50&trl=9 this is the 8th finals match in history to require a rematch due to a draw. 5 of those matches have involved collingwood. add to this that...

when i click a link in this section, it takes me to the thread. i then have to search for my friends post. why cant it take me directly to the post?

Just how good is this kid. how the hell does someone come from oblivion, make a debut for a side that ends up finishing on top of the ladder, and demands a place in the 22. you simply can't drop him. he's got nice skills great work ethic great determination. pretty good...

correct me if i'm wrong.... but isn't the rule that when a player touches the goal post while in possession of the ball that the ball is deemed to have hit the post? how can 2 umpires get it so wrong. it was clear what happened, would expect the umpire to have better knowledge of the...

he had his face smashed in a marking contest FFS. high contact anyone?

i've noticed lately that players deliberately duck their heads when they see an oncoming player, to win a free kick, and in some cases (ie. chad cornes) this results in suspensions. The rule is actually encouraging this, and causing the players to risk their heads rather than actually...

anyone got one/tried them? are they the real deal or a scam?

seeing collingwood at the top of the ladder got me thinking - it hasnt happened too much in my lifetime.... so i decided to look into it: years we've been at the top of the ladder at any stage throughout the season (since 1980): 1981 (rounds 2 - 4, 6 - 10,13 - 17, 19 - 20) 1988 (round...

if they're trying to sell us this garbage that monday night is a good time slot for football as its good for tv.. then show us the game live.

Hi all, i'm looking at opening a bank account of some sort that i can pump money into but can't withdraw from. at the very least i want to not be able to transfer out of online/on the phone or withdraw with a card, but maybe wouldnt mind the option to be able to make a withdrawal by going into...

http://www.heraldsun.com.au/news/collingwood-footballer-harry-obrien-wants-to-meet-president-obama/story-e6frf7jo-1225863362749 the question is - is obama worthy of spending time with a collingwood player? :D

i for the life of me cannot figure out why it is illegal to use your fog lights while driving. i have twice now been told off by cops at a booze bus - the last one was an absolute w***er about it. They are the same brightness as the normal headlights, except they are lower. they do not disrupt...

so going overseas next month - doing a round trip so need travel insurance to cover all continents pretty muhc... travel agent quoted me a pretty high amount - though AAMI quoted $215 which i'm relatively content with. anyone know of any other travel insurers that would be worth looking at?

What do these players have in common? none of them are key position players. So why the hell did we think it would be wise to bomb it into our forward line where 1 or 2 of the aforementioned players were in there amongst 3-4 stkilda players? Did they think it was going to work? i've just been...

I dont know if this has been brought up here before..... but i just figured out why they pulled out of being part of the WC bid - its quite simple really. http://www.medallionclub2010.com/Pricing/ people are paying up to $8000 a year on top of up to a $5000 joining fee to have unrestricted...

I'll say it now - he has been disappointing so far in his 3 games - still early though. with that said - i believe a major part of the problem is that he is becoming disillusioned with the ruck contest - he's given away 9 free kicks so far this year - the most of any player in the competition...
