I got a discount on my holiday this year flying with them so I don't hate it

Not great news

They've obviously got an understanding of what the club stands for regarding equality and inclusion so I have no qualms with this.

AFL Round-Up: Just how worried should we be about Geelong?

Reigning premiers Geelong are the only winless team left in the AFL, as round three delivers another Showdown to remember and a Demons performance that caught the eye. We digest the week that was.

100% agree with that summation.
It felt to me like one of those games where the ball just didn't bounce our way and alternatively, they couldn't put a foot wrong.
As they say in the classics sh it happens......

We are, blueprint is clear. If you want to best us you just need to outmuscle us in the middle.

If I'm Port I'm planning to throw my biggest midfielders against us this week

Stocks up, stocks down: Bobby dazzles, but Lions have moments of regret

In the 2023 AFL Grand Final, Bobby Hill played a matchwinner's game, and Joe Daniher stood up for Brisbane. But two experienced Lions lowered their colours. Here's whose stocks are up and down.

A week earlier, when Franklin was suspended for the match against Hawthorn, Joel Amartey and Logan McDonald were the forward targets five and seven times respectively. McDonald’s yield was an impressive 5.1 (not all his goals coming from those entries), while Amartey - who has struggled for a game - booted 4.2. Isaac Heeney

The Swans kicked to Lance Franklin 10 times when they entered their forward-50 arc, which was more often than the next three players - Logan McDonald (3), Tom Papley
