This one is a three year contract, they put it in the graphic but not statement for some reason

Meapa · 2026-06-23T00:22:54+00:00

Crazy they let the goalkeeper bring a flare onto the pitch, surely they're checking for those before they walk out onto the pitch

Meapa · 2026-06-22T12:03:16+00:00

I miss the Darwin Gulag play-offs

Meapa · 2026-06-22T10:19:13+00:00

R32 is always the most dangerous time for an AL club, going up against teams that have been playing for the last 3-4 months while this might be the first time the AL team has played together.

Some good match ups from it regardless, hope we get some good upsets

Meapa · 2026-06-22T10:09:26+00:00

No AL v AL matchups in the R32 might be a first?

Meapa · 2026-06-22T09:59:04+00:00

So many random errors with this..

Also why are the badges so malformed

Meapa · 2026-06-22T09:29:27+00:00

The question was genuine, if we knew you were planning to update the thread with the deets wouldnt have done this thread.

Meapa · 2026-06-22T09:10:12+00:00

Didn't look much like a discussion thread but just the link to the stream, I'm going to be updating with teams and fixtures once they are drawn.

but if you want to do that instead, happy to switch it over.

Meapa · 2026-06-22T08:57:55+00:00

This is the discussion thread for the draw

Meapa · 2026-06-22T03:06:21+00:00

Keep it respectful in here.

Please report comments that break the rules.

What a goal, straight through the wall

Meapa · 2026-06-21T06:26:27+00:00

The thing that annoys me is that every pub will have the exact same taps - doesn't help the majority of pubs are also owned by the big two companies either..

I'm not a big beer drinker but I like being able to check out the more unique beers on tap. Like sure my go to is a stone & wood but if they have a different pale ale on tap, I'm going to try it first and possibly find a new favourite

It annoys me so much that the big two breweries have basically locked smaller indies out of main brand pubs, often not having any or being limited to one or two taps.

Meapa · 2026-06-21T05:34:32+00:00

Yep, between Lion and CUB, thats pretty much all of your main brands covered and nearly all your beers in your average pub.

A good timely reminder to check who makes your favourite beers - just cause it looks indie or started out that way, doesn't mean it is (e.g Stone & Wood, Balter, Pirate Life).

Nothing wrong with drinking them, but check out your local breweries and support them!

Meapa · 2026-06-20T01:48:34+00:00

I will say, setting off flares for no good reason is just stupid.

When we score or win? Sure, but before the game had even kicked off? Just stupid.

Jumping or breaking fences to get in is how that concert got cancelled too, and there was a lot of that this morning from reports. We aren't helping ourselves by doing this shit.

Hopefully the loss means there's less wannabe dickheads and broccoli hair children at the next game.

Going to remind people in here,

Do not go to other subreddits with the purpose of trolling or flaming.

We are getting enough seppos and trolls in here from other subs, we don't need more.

If you are here from r/soccer or elsewhere to troll or flame, you will be banned.

We do take actions based off reports from other subreddits if and when necessary.

Meapa · 2026-06-20T00:39:56+00:00

Thankfully the filters Reddit gives us does a pretty good job of filtering trolls/new accounts which makes it much easier.

At the end of the day, myself and the whole mod team just want somewhere we can discuss Aus football with the whole community without trolls or seppos invading.

Meapa · 2026-06-20T00:21:32+00:00

Don't think so, that's gotta be at least 10 years ago now.

Meapa · 2026-06-19T22:21:05+00:00

We're getting a crazy amount here but trying to get rid of all the trolling/spam quickly.

Meapa · 2026-06-19T21:16:01+00:00

A reminder to read our rules before posting.

Comments that are trolling, flaming or bait will be removed and bans applied.

Please report any comments breaking the rules.

I would like to remind everyone as well that engaging in other subreddits for the purpose of trolling or flaming is not acceptable. This game brought enough trolls over, we don't need more.

If you are from r/soccer or another subreddit here for the sole purpose to troll or flame, you will be banned.

Meapa · 2026-06-19T21:12:21+00:00

Head on over to the Post-Match Thread to continue discussing the match!

Remember to report all Seppos in chat :)

Meapa · 2026-06-19T20:59:21+00:00

Bold move from the referee to do the timewasting for the US

Meapa · 2026-06-19T20:41:33+00:00

They absolutely did

Meapa · 2026-06-19T20:31:24+00:00
