No amalgamation, don't ever want to see a revival of that idiotic "Allies" formula. Stupid concept by a Victorian dominated AFL administration who still held the belief that only a "rest of australia" could possibly offer the Vics a real challenge. As for states, I would have to ...

I always listen to TripleM footy if the game is also live on tv for my boys. I much prefer radio commentary to anything that 10 or 9 put forth this year. Timmy Ginever is always great to listen to over here in Adelaide, especially for Port games heh. It'll be interesting next season, not sure what I...

Gaelic Football used to have a very violent history many years ago, much of what the GAA was created for was in order to tone down their game and make it into a skills based game with very little physicality other than athletic ability. Personally the GAA won't have much choice other than to conside...

Couldn't see Edwards being offloaded, he is more valuable to the Crows than McLeod is, equally as productive with the ball, harder working, less injury prone. However, I don't think Adelaide will get rid of McLeod in this draft week either, they'd want to keep him if they can and would only let him ...

Storm in a tea cup methinks, albeit disappointing to see nonetheless. It reminds me of Port's win in 04, while all kids got hand shakes (I think), really pissed me off when Thurstans went up and did his "cat dawg" crap or whatever it was...juvenile idiot heh. Meh, I'm sure Wirra will cop a...

Congrats to West Coast, over the course of the year they proved themselves to be the best team in the league. Even though it was a narrow win, in an often skill depleted game, it was fought by both sides full of determination and never say die attitude, for that alone, it will stand as one of the en...

Top Five Good Things About This Years Brownlow 1. Wasn't won purely on the basis of "possessions" for a change, it was won on game influence over a whole season. 2. No dual winners yet again, thank god! 3. No Sam Neuman interaction! 4. erm...nothing comes to mind 5. hrm..seems there was o...

Good topic, seems to be a current rage in AFL media circles with the likes of Barassi chiming in with his idiotic reasons and thoughts. I read an article from Barassi stating that the AFL should hold an enquiry into why the Vic clubs are struggling. Hah, what a fecking load of crap, first of, AFL = ...

As in love and war, there are no rules in politics, both major parties know this and have long perfected the art of abusing it to their collective advantages. This whole spate of "mateship" and Australian values is nothing more than a sham designed to take away national focus from truly im...

That's what generally happens with early season predictions heh. But in all fairness, only an idiot wouldn't have made that prediction, I think Connolly was very much on the last gasp doorstep. It was pretty clear that the appointment of Harvey to the assistant role was the two way bet the Freo boar...

Saints supporters = fickle and frustrated heh Personally I think that St. Kilda have missed the boat well and truly. While they still have a top class playing list, they might be missing a few big names next year, there are some ageing and frail bodies running around now. Look at the likes of Gehrig...

As the season draws to a close, I thought I'd slot this topic in to pay homage and thanks for those players who are retiring from the game. If you'd like to add their names to the roster, please do. I'll start it off with some notables from my lads at Port Adelaide. Gavin Wanganeen 1991 - 2006 300 A...

Couldn't happen to a nicer pack of mongrels! Heh, can't help myself, hate Collingwood, hate McGuire, love to see inner turmoil at that club of elitist wankers.

I think a lot of fans and people in the AFL have been expecting Thomas to go for the past three years at least. Me, I been wondering how he ever got appointed in the first place (apart from the jobs for mates theory given Rod B's control of the club). To sack Blight in the early stages of the season...
