Junior, Tigers are the ultimate enigma just like their star player Richo, unfortunately for me I think the enigma will raise its ugly head this week as my Crows travel to Melb. $2.60 the tigers is outstanding value even though they got bent over over by Sydeny last week I still think they'll win. Ti...

Who knows why they want the bounce to stay. Maybe to make the umpires feel as though they need some skill in order to feel like they're more part of the game. Who knows why Demetriou wants it to stay? And in repsonse to your question of 'who told you players and supporters want it to go' I have spok...

typical umpires response, supporters and players couldnt give a stuff if you can bounce the ball, the only people that think its good is the umpires so they can feel like they have something thats special. No one cares, get the decisions right thats all that matters, no one wants to know you're out ...

Umpiring

I have a solution to the below par umpiring we've seen this year. I used to work for the SANFL and watched the umpires train, I reckon they would spend 60% of their time running, and the other 40% practising bouncing. With the poor bounces and resulted goals from those blatant mistakes (roos v pies)...

dogs V freo

Game in the balance at three quarter time, 9 points the difference with 12 mins to play, ball up by umpire clearly favours Darcy who gets clean posession........goal......free in middle of ground to bulldogs, no one knows why........goal.........free to mitch hahn, wasnt touched at all..........goal...

The one good thing Demetriou has done is get the money for TV rights and if you can explain how it works then you should be CEO TLPG. And in regards to how to stop flooding, the coaches will have to find out new ways to conuter it. Dont let them get off easy and change the rules. I dont give a shit ...

Hey guys, Andrew and Adrian, see what one of the legends of the game has come up with??? A ridiculous 12 point game plan that he has had to come up with to make the game better. Well how about we go back to the original holding the ball rule and the PUSH in the back rule and maybe that would be a go...

IS there anything we are not trying to change in this game???? We have the best game in the world, why are we continually trying to change it. For god sake, leave our game alone....please. We are all getting sick and tired of the changes that have provided us with nothing but frustration i.e the hol...

At AAMI Stadium the prices are as you've suggested at other venues, bloody ridiculous. Does Demetriou understand that if the average family attends a game it would cost them more in food than on tickets to the game. Its ok for him with his 10 other jobs, hang on....he gets everything for free anyway...

I think the AFL's new leaders in Demetriou and Anderson have proven time and time again how they wish to put their stamp on the game even if for the detriment of the game. When they finally have an opportunity to really show they are fair dunkum they provide this wishy washy decision about Selwood a...

Can't beleive Headland got off, Selwood should take this issue all the way. His reputation is screwed. Where do you draw the line now, 'oh he called me a motherf%^&er' I'm very hurt I'm going to punch you and get away with it. Another Demetriouism which will cause this game to be as sterile as a...

Dead right, there are alredy too many teams in Melbourne, Gold Coast is an obvious answer. The name may have to be Northern Kangaroos are something. You couldnt have 2 teams in Sydney right now as people are now becoming accustomed to the Swans, another one would only confuse them. Pity the Kangas c...

They've got Lloyd and Michael, they might ok. What else do we really expect the club captain to say, he'll want to give some hope to the supporters.
