Opinion Non-Crows AFL 14 "Put your Foot in it"

It's a shame they don't have the early Friday game anymore. I get why it may not have worked but I feel people are ready after lunch to watch a game.
Yeah, the Friday twilight game at Nord was elite.
 
Surprises me people are into gather round. I am flat out following the crows these days, but why would anyone want to subsidise the AFL as a whole considering its structural imbalances and how poorly it has treated the crows and SA footy over the years.

Simple really, people love the game.

Why are sporting codes obsessed with starting seasons in a way that limits access to the core fans?

Round 1 in the northern states would be a disaster. Yeah give them home games if you like but you need action in every state right from the start

Similarly bizarre is the BBL wanting to start the season in India
 
Cats managing 3 players this week..
Martin, J Henry & Blicavs

This is how you keep players fresh & develop useful depth.
 


sir a second homophobic slur has hit the afl

He is still adamant he didn't say it so I wonder how many people said I heard him saying it was needed before it was irrefutable.

If he swears he didn't say it he could end up taking this to court.

The comments under Zita's tweet are also 👀

Isn't this the 2nd time he has been caught out?

Yes but if any player says I heard him say it makes it a lot easier to believe it happened again and harder for him to say he didn't.

He could very well not have said it but those other two players heard something like it and assumed or think he said it again.


If a Carlton player said Rankine said it again and Rankine swore up and down he definitely didn't would be mighty hard to prove he didn't due to the previous incident.
 
How quickly they turn on Chad.

He turned on them pretty quick, definition of a disaffected past employee. Kane actually displayed something resembling gratitude and loyalty, Chad has displayed nil.

Not that he has to, he can say whatever he wants, better if he does. But let’s not make out he isn’t asking for it and revelling in it.

The problem with the AFL is they try to be too clever and please too many in victoria on top of that.

Opening round is the major issue. Everyone just wants to see their teams play, then to have rolling byes in the first few weeks for opening round teams just adds further frustration for fans and opposition clubs who may have 3 six day games in a row and they that last game is against an opposition who has had a two week break.

If the AFL scratched this opening round crap and had everyone play then that automatically kills the complaints. They can still run all those QLD and NSW games in prime time fixtures.

Im also a believer that marquee stand alone games like Anzac Day, Easter Monday and Kings Birthday games need to go. Its too much of an economic advantage to just 4 clubs. These days should all be on rotation.

Weve done that a bit this year, and yet we went early on guys like Soligo and Hinge.

Baby steps I suppose
Lol, we have been playing a few underdone or injured players every game this season... whilst we have in form fit players available.

1 is not like the other.
