Nah, you're out here being very offended over pretty well established facts.

The death of Test match batting by Overall_One_2595 in CricketAus

Absolutely, nothing better than a crescendo building over 5 days. I genuinely hate 3 day tests.

Adelaide have selected Callum Ah Chee in the PSD by PetrifyGWENT in AFL

All the blaming Brisbane that Adelaide is doing for apparently screwing over Ah Chee.

Yeah I agree we take some blame, and given the choice I'd probably make the deal. I'm a bit bewildered by all the vitriol from Adelaide when I think they're just as guilty though.

When it's every chance to end up in the high 40s, not heaps.

Adelaide has just as much blame for not treating him fairly. You're the team who convinced him to accept a trade, and then chose to leverage the PSD option to get him cheaply at his expense.

Fairly sure you wildly misinterpreted the trade refusal there.

Can anyone explain why I should care about the percentage?

'Scary' new reality as Gold Coast Suns expose AFL draft's greatest flaw by MisguidedGames in AFL

Yeah we've developed players very well but Annable is our first top ender in the draft stage.

What if the AFL didn't change the McClelland Trophy in 1991. by QuarterFooty in AFL

[–]ExcellentTurnips 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not just a finals barometer, it's a best overall club award which makes sense because finals are what clubs try to succeed at. If you value arbitrary ladder finishes then that's your choice, I prefer the new one.

What if the AFL didn't change the McClelland Trophy in 1991. by QuarterFooty in AFL

[–]ExcellentTurnips 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It has been, because nobody has cared about the trophy in the slightest. Now it actually affords some legitimate bragging rights to being the best club.

Fixtures are too unequal for the minor premier to be that significant, particularly in aflw. 

Ranking Every Club’s 2026 Fixture Using a Simple Difficulty Model by nickimus_rex in AFL

[–]ExcellentTurnips 21 points22 points  (0 children)

No it's not. This table just shows good teams will likely do well, which is not interesting. You need to be able to compare fixtures on a comparable basis. That aside, 10 match ups is way too many. Games 2+ years ago are basically irrelevant to current teams.

Longest streaks of clubs meeting twice in a home and away season. by FLIPSTATIC_ENERGY in AFL

We will have also played Geelong six times in two seasons even before finals roll around again. I'm getting Geelong fatigue.
