In the 1st quarter of the Eagles vs Roos game, an umpire made a decision for holding the ball only for a 2nd umpire to come in and say that never happened. He then ruled a bouncedown. I have seen umpires overrule other umpires with a different free kick but I've never an outright cancellation...
I put it to you that the AFL has the worst free agency system in all professional sports. No where else has...
1) One team with more salary cap that gets the best free agent every year
2) Penalises other teams for free agency signings by moving them down the draft order
3) Allows teams to know...

We should be pushing for our own reserves team in the WAFL, fully controlled and run by the WCEFC. It would make our development systems a lot better. Year after year the WCE keep falling behind the...
Well, I thought the original Judd suspension was absurd but I don't see how this was any different. Twisted Selwood's arm behind his back until he injured it. How many weeks?
Hawthorn are masters of injuring players a split second after disposal. Their unsociable football is very effective, legal and within the rules. They have been doing it for a few years, my only surprise is why aren't other teams following them? Its like Clarko calling us head duckers, don't...

No one voted for Bob Carr, but now suddenly he is in parliament and the foreign minister of this country, presenting our views overseas. This is an extraordinary abuse of our democratic system. Australian democracy is broken and needs to be fixed. I'm not sure how we do this but something needs...
The AFL's surprise decision to abandon Qantas and sign with Virgin Blue as its preferred carrier has added more urgency to a radical plan being considered by the West Coast Eagles: charter their own planes to ferry players, and supporters, to 'away' matches in the eastern states...
I'm tired of seeing this. A player is standing over the ball and an opposition player cannons into them head first and draws a free kick. What do you think?
Saw he had another good game in the WAFL. 25 possessions and two goals. If Nat Fyfe can come in and have an impact at his size then I don't see why Sheppard can't. In fact he might be a good option for Fyfe and won't be playing on a guy much bigger than him.
