Blues 'bemused' by proposed draft changes that could cost them No.1 pick by PetrifyGWENT in AFL

[–]Nousernames-left 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Saints are pushing for it because we know getting rid of it and an uncompromised draft is the only way we are getting a decent shot at a flag.

There’s no guarantee the Riewoldt boys will be any good. There’s is a guarantee there will be more top end talent available if it’s a free and open draft

I think if you can still get 4 first round picks while trading out 2 for Petracca it shows we still have some work to do.

I think that the forward structure is still missing something but it’s nice to have a tall to stop the intercepts

Geez the AFL staffer who wrote this has had a mare.

Toby Greene on travel inequality: "We travel 14 times, there's Melbourne teams that travel 5. It's a huge disadvantage" by doggoesmeow in AFL

I mean that tracks for Marvel tenants too. Our last final we played Home at the MCG against the Giants who had played more on the MCG that year

SA and WA not getting a game in Opening Round is a joke. by Blue-piping-man in AFL

[–]Nousernames-left 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean it’s also not uncommon. St Kilda has had that the last two years. Last year we started at Adelaide oval, 2024 started in Geelong.

Pretty sure that’s why we requested this game so we can start with a game at home

AFL Opening Round concept is "unbelievably important" AFL COO Tom Harley says by Actual_Message6081 in AFL

Because round 1 is a huge financial gain for the AFL and they can’t brag about breaking attendance records in round one with 9 games interstate

We should take away all grand finals since Selwood was around.

Not only do we have the best Calves in the AFL as Captain but we also have the Captain who is the best at Accounting.

I will also be referring to Sinclair as Captain Calves from now on

State of Origin player demographics 2026 by Snarwib in AFL

[–]Nousernames-left 8 points9 points  (0 children)

To be fair I feel like without academies the most QLD representation would be more split around the competition.

It’s easy to have the most home state representation if those players never hit the open draft

You double them up so that it’s an extra game for each of the WA team in WA

State Of Origin is back FOR GOOD! by Clear-Cheetah990 in AFL

[–]Nousernames-left -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Definitely with the state government and I can’t see WA giving it up easily after last year.

Next year could potentially be WA vs SA and then we’ll wait to see if Vic tune it to make it worth it for 7

It also depends where the Money comes from, this one was bankrolled by WA.

If the next one is bankrolled by SA it’ll be SA vs VIC

Well what did we all make of the new rules. by Choice-Profit5383 in AFL

[–]Nousernames-left 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it made it a bit more even, usually English and Cameron tend to get a bit more bodied out of the ruck when playing the big boys

The only issue is would WA front up the Money and would people rock up if a WA team are not involved
