If a premiership win was won at a non-hallowed MCG turf, is it really a premiership gaiz?

 

[chunkylover]

Sounds kind of weird but West Coast arguably now got more out of this season then Melbourne did.
We dont win the premiership
They dont win the premiership

We get pick 2
They get pick 14 or whatever.
To summarise. The Eagles got more out of 2022 then Melbourne.

Thank you and have a nice day.

Melbourne get a top 6 fixture and eagles that sweet sweet bottom 6 fixture too

 

[ioppolo]

Freo are going to send out Collingwood straight sets tomorrow night - 2 in one year, can’t have happened often.

I think it might've happened in 2014. Geelong and Freo?

Call to hold minute’s silence before AFLW match ‘insensitive’: Western Bulldogs

The Bulldogs have described the AFL’s mandated minute’s silence to honour Queen Elizabeth II immediately after the Acknowledgement of Country ceremony and before Friday night’s Indigenous round match as “insensitive”.

www.theage.com.au

Ah good, someone twigged that interrupting a celebration of First Nations culture to pay homage to the current-day head of the British empire was probably not so smart.

Never let it be said that the Afls capacity to virtue signal is more important than anything else.

If it is that much of a sensitive isue shouldn’t they have removed the welcome to country before the afl final last night and the minute silence for the queen? Cant have it both ways

Would be more appropriate to move indigenous round.

But hey lets not offend the wokeists

Probably not the way you intended, but moving indigenous round for the sake of the monarchy would actually be more appropriate in a way.

 

[KERRPOW]

Hmmm would be good to see freo win today ONLY to know that no melbourne based teams are in finals.

Then to see geelong choke in another prelim would be icing on the cake.

That term is so overused it's lost all meaning - apparently, empathy = woke, and a person demonstrating empathy = SJW nowadays

True, my last sentence was just an off the cuff remark.

I did find it odd having WTC, then the god save the queen moment after minute silence.

SJW?

You can display empathy and not be woke.

For example why so certain programs on foxtel do the whole indigenous acknowledgement (gogglebox, great Australian bake off etc) to me its diluting the true intentions of reconciliation.

 

[Truckosaurus]

You don't think Gogglebox heals a broken nation?!

Social justice warriors.

In certain circles if you suggest that welcome to country and acknowledgment of the traditional custodians are fine, you get labelled 'woke' and 'SJW' - there is a vocal minority that oppose any steps towards reconciliation. Anyway that's my two cents, I'll leave the politics talk for another thread.

 

[Eastern Rangers]

Lol'd hard at this. Out on site atm and they put both the aus and indigenous flag at half mast yesterday - lot of commentary along the lines of - 'yeah not sure how much they will be mourning'

Yeah. That sort of ideological segregation is laughable.

As if there was a clear line where indigenous Australia ends and settler colonial society begins these days.

More historically appropriate at least.

i do find it a touch sad when corporates (in this case multi-nationals on the NYSX) start every meetnig with the most disingenuous welcome to country recital. Same companies have asked staff to go quiet on social media for a week as a sign of respect for the Queens passing.

It's a nice gesture, but I've always wondered what would happen if an elder got up on stage and said, "Actually, we've changed our mind. Get the hell off our land!"

Also, the stereotype is that their wealthy supporter base head to the ski resorts during footy season. Might be that.

That’s exactly what it is. You don’t realise this until you live in Melbourne

 

[javaguice]

Would it be fair to say most Cockburn supporters live SOR?

 

[Ilkka Sinisalo]

Pretty rude of the Royal Family to schedule the Queen's funeral without considering that it might clash with the Brownlow count.

yeah wasn't sure if it was a stereotype or something that has happened in the past couple of years (e.g. kicked out of Finals and seen at buller on saturday)
either way was glorious seeing them go out.
Win Win tonight either dockers out or straight sets, both teams will struggle against sydney next week
