    the most likeable teams

    to put the flaming of anonymous usernames to one side, kind of interested in which teams are admired, even if begrudgingly, amongst the bay-ites... my most liked teams includes one that might seem an odd choice, being freo. i really like them, and would be pretty happy to see them have some...

    Should Joel Selwood Retire ...

    ... to give hodge a fighting chance at being the more decorated player? in 5 less seasons, joel has matched or bettered all but one of the following hodge achievements: 2× Premiership player (2008, 2013) - bettered by joel. Norm Smith Medal 2008 - well done hodge, joel only managed a 2nd...

    Port Adelaide Appreciation Thread

    i am developing a real soft spot for this team... cannot believe how overlooked ken hinkley was for a coaching position, he is doing wonders with them. so much young talent coming through, which is really driving their season... a popular pick for the wooden spoon pre-season, and pretty much a...

    when was the last legitimate premiership?

    geelongs recent flags have rightfully come under fire, in my time on this site, for being won against substandard opposition, and therefore being null and void... a quick scan over recent premiership winning sides reveals a disturbing trend: 2012* - COLA; 2011* - beat the GF chokers, doesnt...

    Round 5 Brisbance v Melbourne - who will win the coaching cripple fight?

    voss versus neeld in the ultimate 'sack race'... neeld probably in the stronger position of the two after a good win today. if voss survives this week, can he still be in the coaches box when sydney eat their soul in round 6? ill be watching with interest.

    2013 Rising Potato Award

    the current bay whipping spuds are getting a bit played out... watts is becoming like 'two and a half men', boring and predictable. we need to determine who is the brightest young spud in the AFL - same criteria as the rising star: under 21 january 1st this year; less than 10 games before rd...

    Music The music thread

    the best band there has been, or will ever be. the only musicians that exceed their innovation and intuitive brilliance are the big composers from rachmaninov back to mozart. the best melodies since schubert and tchaikovsky, and the greatest chord changes since beethoven. over the top...

    you love geelongs kids more than your own...

    and if you dont already, you will soon. terrific display - duncan, kersten, murdoch and smedts stand outs. add menzel and christensen, and the rest of our starters missing today, and 2013 is looking fairly promising.

    Franklin Needs 5.9 Goals a Game to Match Ablett Senior

    lance and gary are neck and neck in terms of average disposals. lance average 15.1 touches a game, and ablett averaged exactly the same. so given that these two are tied in terms of overall disposal averages, lance needs to start making up ground in goals kicked. ablett played the first 10...

    Congratulations Nathan Brown - 20 & 3!

    this prestigious award has been kept from a legend of our game for too long now. only sample sizes were keeping him from what was his, and these are now irrelevant. peter hudsons stats: http://stats.rleague.com/afl/stats/players/P/Peter_Hudson.html in 9 seasons, his disposals were...

    Premierships / Wooden Spoons...

    geelong: 9 flags, 5 wooden spoons = 1.8 flags per wooden spoon. collingwood clearly out in front with: 15/2 = 7.5 flags per wooden spoon. probably safe to say you cannot count yourself a successful club unless your flag per spoon count is 1, or above.

    a report for head-high on a team-mate...

    if a player negligently or recklessly made quite hard contact to a team-mates head, is there anything stopping them from being cited by the MRP? im pretty sure my common sense can answer this question for me, and that would be in the negative, but i thought id put it out there and get some...

    multiple club players who are rarely recognised as such

    two came to mind today, both by accident. i recently read this post: in a bay13 'rip on richmond' thread. i was confused. why would a west coast player losing relate to richmond? then i remembered he actually played for them... i was actually surprised. then i remembered carey played for...

    port v adelaide... divorce in action.

    the port/adelaide divide on here is an odd one... its not really a 'rivalry', as that denotes respect on either side. the two sets of supporters are really like husband and wife, 6 months after a very bitter divorce. truly bizarre. any word on who actually got the house?

    The Constitutional Validity of Salary Caps and the Draft

    currently studying constitutional law as part of my law degree, and have just been presented with an interesting case on a WAFL player from the 1970s, brian adamson. he played for west perth, and wanted to move to norwood in the SANFL. his transfer request was denied by the WAFL, as he was...

    will carlton win a game this year?

    might be able to snare a win come round 6, and only cause that one is at home... thats about the only one that could be penciled in at this stage.

    Is the Geelong playing group closer than others?

    curious as to other posters thoughts... watched the 15 minute video 'behind the scenes' post '11 GF earlier tonight. there is little doubting that the geelong playing group is a very tight knight and loving group. to me personally, they seem closer than other squads. likely, this is because i...

    when and where will malthouse coach again?

    http://www.afl.com.au/news/newsarticle/tabid/208/newsid/125062/default.aspx i never bought it when he said he would quit coaching for good... hearing him say he could never coach against his boys at collingwood seemed a little hollow, after the similar length of time he was at the eagles and...

    has a grand final ever been decided with a kick after the siren?

    has it? also, assuming a player had a kick for goal from 50 after the siren. what would happen in the following situations? 1. player blatantly pushes someone in the back, in order to punch the ball away from the goals. free kick? 2. scores tied, kick is a shocker, and a player from the same...
