Only time you’ll see North and a couple million dollars in the same sentence.

Sadly we are not the only business to get smashed

 

[Truckosaurus]

Naturally, North is obliged to call that a "war chest".

Unless it includes the word debt

Not sure about calling him a star.

the vision looks pretty sickening. Just lucky he didnt break the oppos jaw or worse.

 

[Truckosaurus]

You'd think someone with his history would be more sensitive to the dangers of throwing a punch like that.

If you're an AFL player in the news, you're a star. Standard.

From the article; “It can only be described as a pretty wild, Andrew Gaff, Barry Hall-like punch,”. * you Tom Browne, putting Gaff's punch on par with Hall's is ******* ridiculous.

 

[Ochre]

Going down to the wire this one.

 

[MrKK]

The 5% must be AFL accredited journalists so they can spend the whole weekend tweeting about selection scoops.

 

[Truckosaurus]

Nah that 5.7% all work at an AFL club. Easier to play selection games.

The
freodockers
are talking with the
AFL
about possibly switching this week's game against
brisbanelions
to the GABBA - and the round 21 v Lions clash to
@OptusStadium
.

Freo facing possibility of crowdless game again this Sunday, and another financial hit.

Freo to possibly be asked to play Lions at Gabba this weekend, and in turn their R21 away game will be at Optus.

Good for Eagles to get the Lions actually travelling in that last month of the season. Currently they're set up to play a bank of Qld games.

 

[Keys]

Swapping the freo v Brisbane games is a no brainer. Makes perfect sense

Every chance then that the AFL reject the idea

Freo aren't a threat so it'll get the all clear

 

[Keys]

Just out of interest

If I were Brisbane I'd say no, would rather the four or so GABBA games in a row to end the season.

Freo would be a lot easier at home than away.
Reckon Brisbane should jump at the chance to move it home.
Banking early games is the way to go I think.

Is it worth the risk of having to come to WA currently though? The only have those four games because of the same situation in reverse so they couldn't pretend to be hard done by.

 

[Mr Eagle]

Would become a Sunday twilight game if they keep the timeslot but move it to the east coast.

Good point, also Brisbane might be forced to quarantine when they go back, not ideal.

Shows how successful we are to be second only to Geelong.

Also true but imo playing a weakened freo this week at their home ground, and then a (presumably) stronger freo with their injured 22 back, perhaps at this point aiming for finals, in Brisbane, perhaps seems the better option? Of course not factoring in any potential issues regarding quarantine etc.

 

[Dylan82]

Brisbane would be jumping at that opportunity I reckon.

They've won three matches in succession and another home game now will mean they won't be leaving Queensland until June.

Considering Neale is out for possibly two months, any means of making things easier for them during the interim will be taken with both hands.
