    Well that’s it.. 11 teams left in the finals hunt

    Teams 12 through 18 at the conclusion of Round 7 have tapped out of the finals/ premiership race (though i tend to think the actual premiership race consists of fewer teams than this). How do the Suns, Bulldogs, Dockers, Bombers, Saints, Lions and Blues and their fans approach the rest of the...

    Over officiated

    I'm finding myself constantly shaking my head at decisions throughout games. I'm noticing the umpires just as much or more than the players and in game plays. The umpires seem to relish impacting the games. They have lost the feel for the game and have become compelled to blow the whistle AS...

    Hawkins unrealistic attempt

    Has made a habit/tactic of flying for the ball unrealistically early so as to get into his opponents back/ribs/kidney with a big boot or knee almost as soon as the ball is kicked towards him by a teammate. Did it 4-5 times on Friday night and amazingly wasn't pulled up once by the umpires nor...

    Coaches - The 4 year rule

    Something that hasn't been discussed amidst the talk about Hardwick and Richmond, should he or shouldnt he be shown the door. Well, doing some thinking on the matter of Hardwick being coach of the Tigers for 7, going on 8 years I discovered a common theme amongst successful coaches. The common...

    How can the Hawks be $1.48 favourites this Friday?

    Surely, the table leading side should be favourite at their hoe ground on Friday night? Can't understand punters going hard for the Hawks at $1.48. Roos are $12 for a 40+ victory which is not out of the question if they get a hold of us early. Big scope to get on the Kangaroos this week EDIT...

    Being a forum mod

    I was recently thinking of the tireless hours mods put in on forums such as this one in BigFooty. For the first time it really hit me, the reality of being a mod on a busy forum that is. It raises many questions like do they get paid for their work on forums that raise a lot of revenue thru...

    Review Shaun Burgoyne

    Would like others thoughts & views and discussion on Shaun Burgoyne, the player. Who is he ahead of? What does he bring the side? Is he coasting? My judgement is reserved. Discuss.

    Collingwood don't travel until RD14???

    Absolutely amazing that they get 14 rounds of football & 2 byes before they play outside of Melbourne. :rolleyes: Similarly, it is interesting that another AFL favourite in Richmond are allowed 12 rounds and and a bye before they go interstate. The AFL are obviously doing everything...

    We've got the best player in the AFL

    We've got Buddy. He's the best by a mile & lets not forget it. When you have the best player you win premierships. Buddy wins you flags. Just kick it to Buddy or give it to Buddy whenever you can. We practically won the the 2008 premiership off the back of Buddy's boot. Great sides are built...

    2 weeks until Geelongs most important annual game...

    that's right folks, Geelong v Hawthorn. The Cats' biggest game of the year, the one where a H&A win over the Hawks is celebrated with more gusto, tears & salad rolls than a Grand Final victory over Port Flower or StFilled 'er. Enjoy this time Geelflogs because you just might have to play the...

    What team/s cannot you not stand to watch??

    In every era or mini-era of football I find there are usually 1 or 2 teams that I can't stand to watch, due to their style of football, players & (usually extremely dull) atmosphere of their games. It was Sydney for me during the Sydney/West Coast mini-era due to the low scoring, high stoppage...

    We are a bottom 6 side..we are pathetic

    Unfortunately, but we have nothing & we look like a laughing stock the way we try & forge our game plan............we've got nothing this year with the type of game we play. Our no hoper style of football is so depressing, especially after winning a flag a season ago. Our coaches have us playing...

    No excuses from here on in for the Hawks

    It's all there for the taking from next week onwards. We all rate our team, we'll find out if we really are good enough in the next few weeks. If not, it's time to accept it. No excuses left I wouldn't have thought. Go Hawks:thumbsu:

    Let Buddy be un-silenced!

    Release him to the masses. Let him go on all the footy shows. Let him give interviews. Let him feel the hype again. Let him enjoy the best years of his football career & have some fun. I think the silence/media ban on BUddy post 2008 should be lifted. The guy is young, flashy & just about...

    Superleague??

    How long before a SuperLeague or rival/breakaway league is formed? Personally, I think it would be great...the AFL administration deserves it & somebody with the cash to start a league that returns the game to what the long time supporters/followers really want would really cash in. Buy all the...

    Bombers lone star.

    New Essendon recruit, ex- Hawthorn premiership player, Mark Williams, has clearly become the Bomber's most high-profile player since joining the club during draft week. A mass exodus of high-profile Bomber's after the clubs' humiliating finals capitulation at the hands of the Adelaide Crows at...

    2010 season positional depth list!!

    Hi guys, wanted to post this list I compiled that kind of shows the depth of our list & the number of players available to play in certain positions for the upcoming 2010 season. The list highlights the amount of quality/proven players we have available (baring injury) through to who I consider...

    Congratulations Hawthorn!!!!

    Wow. Just an amazing feeling right now & I think a big congratulations is in order for the Hawks. A few years ago, in the dark days of the mid 00's for the club I, like many football lovers couldn't foresee the rise of this club to become the biggest Victorian club of all!! Looking back...

    Mark Williams >>>>>>>>>Matthew Lloyd.

    Well done bombers. At least somebody knows what they're doing at windy hill. Got rid of that waste of space Lloyd & finally picked up a decent forward for the first time since P.Salmon. Should see you finish around 10-12th in 2010 instead of the inevitable 15th-16th. kudos.

    Has Hodge re-signed yet?

    Just wondering if anybody knows whether Hodge has re-signed with us yet. Maybe I missed the news. If he hasn't, should I be worried?

    This year A Grand Final Draw should remain a Draw!

    In the unlikely scenario that St Kilda don't choke on PF day & Geelong make it to a 3rd successive GF a more likely scenario evolves. The two biggest September chokers in the history of the game could face each other in the Grand Choke-Off. The result of this Choke-off will no doubt be a DRAW...

    Who will coach Collingwood to their next Flag?

    Got me thinking today that Malthouse has had so long to do it but cannot. Will Leigh Matthews be the last coach to ever take the pies to a premiership. And then I thought about the "other" candidates.
