Pickitt disagrees with me .... awwwwwwwwww.

Welcomed by people who have lived here less than I have :)

I've got no problem with any of them.

The whole idea of drafts and salary caps were for equalisation. However, the AFL has never been less "equal" than in any other time in history. And it will get worse each time they add another franchise and more academies to the list.

I'm usually not big on predictions, but I have a feeling this lad will be the best #1 pick the AFL has seen for many years.

They waste enough time with reviews for goal umpires who are blind as bats. I saw one last night where it was so obviously touched ahead of the line, not on the line, but ahead of the line, and the dopey goal umpire, who was right there, wasn't able to make a decision. Why do we even have goal...

A bit like the Hawks getting pick 19 for Buddy Franklin, the best player in the competition, to enable him to go to Sydney? Didn't see much Vic-bias in that decision.

If Dunstall played for Carlton, Andy Maher would be hailing him the greatest forward who ever lived.

He is possibly the first key forward I saw place defensive pressure on opposition back men, chasing and tackling, in a time when forwards didn't do much of this.

I've never understood the term "over-rated". Who exactly is it that does this "rating", and why should we care what they think?

So long as nobody called him a nasty name, the AFL are fine with it.

AFL is supposed to be a professional sport. Why do they continue to tolerate amateur umpiring?

I have every faith the current administration will eventually transform AFL into a circus .... if it hasn't already.

Some footy merchandise is very smart street wear, polo shirts, caps, bomber jackets, etc. They are designed for street wear, so I see no problem with it. Seems to some it's more acceptable to wear Lakers tops than support their own football club.

A definite top 4 contender, but I'll reserve my judgement of them once the finals get here, and they play a better-quality opposition than last night.

Because ...... Hawthorn are the only team who has players who stage for free kicks. :rolleyes:

It always amuses me how people are so "shocked" when these allegations are made.

Let's face it. There are players running around in the AFL right now who are simply not up to standard, and my Hawks have more than our share of them. The AFL feels they can add a 19th team .... God only knows from where they think and extra 40+ players will magically appear.

Check the record books. Collingwood won the flag in 2023. It doesn't mention ifs, buts, and what-ifs.

In my book, being beaten after leading by 46 points is worse than a 10 goal belting.

How come everyone is so "concerned" about Collingwood being 0-2, but not saying a word about Brisbane?

The game was taken away from the average footy fan years ago. Catering to elites is what the AFL is there for.

Most sides haven't even played a game yet, but apparently we already have a winner.

Oh FFS, the Referendum result has stuff all to do with it.

If my team can't win it, I don't care who does. Good luck to them.

AFL? No

Yep, can't argue with any of that. I think North have handled it well.

Why do I sense massive legal action coming up? No good can come from this.

Mickey Mouse Club.

This is the one I will never understand. I follow the argument about succession plans and Collingwood rating Buckley as a future premiership coach, but at the time Collingwood had won the 2010 flag and were the best team in the AFL. Why on earth would you even consider changing the coach? Can...
