2020 Non-Crows AFL Discussion

[rocket18]

Comrade Dan

f*n lol you plebs are kidding yourself if this latest minioutbreak has anything to do with him directly

Surely he is responsible for Victoria's crappy testing rate early on, you guys were down the bottom out of all the states, finally got your shit together in mid May. You guys have had it in the community going undetected, then you had the meat works stuff up by Vic Health.


Test and trace is the way to beat this, Dan was like Trump - if we don't test we won't have many cases.


Compared to other states Dan the Man ain't done good.

Why are we still playing games in Victoria beyond the current set of games? Ridiculous. Surely the two SA teams get a long stretch at home after round 6?

 

[GreyCrow]

Its time the teams outside of Victoria get together and demand no games in Victoria until it is under control

 

[SaltPeter]

Bet we have to play both of them in Tas

Pick 1 .. just think pick 1

 

[FAITH]

AFL needs to start taking the Vic flu a bit more seriously.

Victoria is a subsidiary of China so makes sense.

 

[FR0GGY]

Watch all games to be played in Vic next year to even things up.

 

[TRP1996]

Watch all games to be played in Vic next year to even things up.

And we'll still only get about 2 games at the MCG.

 

[Tex200]

I'm not planning on doing that

But it's funny how you guys like to imply that Dan himself has gone around and spread the virus personally

Well, you know, maybe if his Health Department were doing their job instead of tweeting about comparing the virus to Captain Cook, maybe it wouldn’t be the sh...thole that it’s become

Only one club mentioned in this segment about player hub demands

Thanks Caro -

She’s not fairfax. Like it’s been like this since Domain becaim major sponsor.
Domain are owned by Fairfax press and it gives our commications out free to go. Maybe we’ll get a paragraph in the Sydney morning herald.

 

[mistylake]

You know it is bad when the NRL have a better strategy in place.. .


But hey, Victoria is the epicentre of world sport.....

We all know it but this pandemic has really magnified the corruption and lack of fairness within the AFL. I feel utterly dirty to have any involvement in it. It makes me feel complicit by giving my money to subscribe to Kayo, pay my membership of the Crows etc. It’s kind of sickening but I love the game and don’t have another outlet to replace it.
It’s a conundrum.

Wheels in motion for WA hub and 60,000 at Derby

Get excited WA fans, the Eagles and Dockers will be returning home soon

www.afl.com.au

Looking at 4 clubs moving to WA. Hawks and North are looking at Tassie

I'm just waiting for the Hawks and North playing in Tassie to somehow be classified as their away games.

Pick 1 .. just think pick 1

We're not winning any games this season anyways so #1 pick is already wrapped up (until the AFL realise it's the Crows who will benefit, and change the draft to suit), just want to spare the team the inconvenience of having to play in the antarctic.

You could always direct your energy to a local club or league; they’d love the help if the local league is still going and you’re able.

Seconded

 

[SugarShane]

And we'll still only get about 2 games at the MCG.

2 @ the MCG
16 @ Etihad
1 @ Ballarat
1 @ Kardinia
1 @ UTAS (borders open by then)
1 @ Blundstone

It's been quite amusing this year to hear every decision the AFL makes on the fly be reacted to with "How is that fair?"

How is any season fair? When have the AFL ever given any indication they care about fair?

So did Conor McKenna have coronavirus or not? - ABC listen

The on again, off again nature of Essendon AFL player Conor McKenna's COVID tests has been a wild ride this week. McKenna had an irregular test result on Friday, then tested positive on Saturday. Then on Tuesday, tested negative. So what's going on? Did he have COVID-19? Or has he been clear...

[radiojake]

You can't make this shit up

Caro: "This hub for Collingwood and Geelong will be more onerous than what West Coast & Fremantle have had to deal with" (doesn't even mention Adelaide or Port)

16 @ Etihad
1 @ Ballarat

Don't forget the NT game and the game at Potato park will be in front of a full house aswell

Hopefully they'll just let things take their normal course (if we end up in pick #1 position and also #2 for brouch) - it'll save them having to consider priority picks for us down the track. We've had good player development in the past that it would have been great to see what we could have done with picks #1 & #2 but moving forward, I'm not confident we would continue our previous successes.

Hawthorn's 'greatest figure', John Kennedy snr, passes away

The football world is mourning the loss of Hawthorn's spiritual father John Kennedy snr

And now the rumour is our teams will be sent there in Round 7

So, so brave. As a reward they won't have to leave Victoria again until 2030...

 

[MRB37]

So Victorian teams get more home games and us and Port are forced to travel again? I'd tell the AFL to GAGF.

Look on the bright side, we won’t be playing North at Blundstone in Hobart
