You don't like being known as the national r*****s league much do you buddyTerry wrote: Tue May 01, 2018 11:08 amLegends of the game are slamming AFL for being an ugly game. TBH I've always thought it was the ugliest mess in world sport. Maybe this year is just worse than previous years if that's possible. It's a sad indictment on the brainwashed players, fans, admin & media that follow the mess.
Maybe it's the reason the TV ratings are in free fall. Please discuss.

The reason AFL gets crowds is because we aren't all drug dealers and r*****s!

Fatigue: what would obese rugby players who don't even kick the ball know about fatigue?Terry wrote: Sat May 12, 2018 10:24 amGood on ya pal. The first step to recovery is acknowledgement of the problem.
In my opinion they must drastically reduce the interchange number to bring fatigue into the game. They should also have some sort of zoning or a rule that a set number of players on each team cannot leave their own half at any time during play.
I'd trial games with 15 players and zoning - see how that goes - and then tinker with it to get the best result. Gilly if ya listening I'm available to help lolololololol.

20% compared to what?Terry wrote: Thu May 31, 2018 9:54 amThe great super coach Kelvin Shedley has called for drastic changes to the game to ease the ugly congestion that causes the rabbling mess we see today. He's calling for 16 players and less interchanges.
I agree. Something has to be done to arrest the catastrophic 20%+ drop in TV ratings. The game as it is played today is turning off millions of supporters with it's base ugliness & lack of skill & athletic ability.
It is that bad that Chinese getting free tickets to attend the Shanghai game prefer to hide behind the stands eating cold pies & drinking hot Zhujiang beer rather than actually watch the ugly mess. Yep - ppl are actually running away & hiding from the action it is that bad to watch!!!!!!!
Good work Kel……...and good luck in saving the game!!!!!

Former AFL champion and premiership-winning coach Mark 'Bomber' Thompson has faced a Melbourne court charged with drug trafficking and possession.
The 54-year-old was arrested and charged almost five months after police executed a warrant at his Port Melbourne home.
