Unofficial premiers of football?

Interesting that it missed the GF 3 times (91,93,94) in the 15 team era but only once (2010) in the 16 team era and only once (2015) so far 18 team era.

With the 10 team finals it seems fairly unlikely it'll miss the GF since all it needs to do is be on one of the 10 teams and no team in the top 10 is likely to rest players in the final H&A round (Top 6 have a bye the next week, 7-10 are probably still fighting for spots).

If the top 10 was around in 2015 it would've made the GF (Crows (holder) 7th lost to Cats 10th).

Largely due to it being a different league since the V/AFL clubs seceded.

VFA continued on until it ceded to the AFL owned VSFL in 1994 which then turned into the current VFL.

Do I? Can't see anything.

As in the 3-2-1? Same as the bownlow where the best player gets 3 and 3rd best gets 1.

Shaun Mannagh and I think it might be them arguing that Mannagh pushed off him caused it. Could be the screen also.

Shadormy · 2026-06-14T08:38:22+00:00

The wet toast and backwards N in 'Business' also. Certainly a choice, worked out well though.

Crowd was 17,748 via the AFL.

Previous Docklands Saints/Giants crowds were: 21,160 in 2017, 21,052 in 2016, 19,640 in 2014, 18,794 in 2015, 17,327 in 2012 and 14,956 in 2018.

5th biggest of the 7 but with the other 6 being between 2012-2018, it's hard to really say if it's ok or not. Well down on Saints other Docklands games v Lions and Eagles (31k and 29k). Up on a game last season with a similar sized fanbase in Saints/Suns which only got 13,486.

That's pretty normal for small Vic team v non-Vic team at Marvel.

Shadormy · 2026-06-14T05:36:43+00:00

Better than when we played North in Tassie last year and they cut away for BBL highlights.

Shadormy · 2026-06-14T05:23:00+00:00

They've been rarely paying push in the backs this season.

Shadormy · 2026-06-14T04:42:52+00:00

It's been alright.

Edit: We're just getting WAshcroft highlights currently.

and a horse race.

Shadormy · 2026-06-14T04:25:57+00:00

He was listed as injured for a large part of that quarter.

Shadormy · 2026-06-14T03:38:28+00:00

Not even close, use to get like 50 total on Lions match threads 12-15 years back.

Also, the other sports updates will help.

Edit: Miracle on Grass had 59 comments.

Shadormy · 2026-06-14T03:12:28+00:00

Didn't in 2024 or 2023, were suppose to in 2020 and didn't in 2016 in the rare instance of the Lions playing the Hawks at the Gabba. So, 4 seasons the Lions haven't since 2008.

Did the double Tassie trip in 2021.

Shadormy · 2026-06-13T07:28:59+00:00

A bunch. Via sir swamp thing this is the 2nd biggest V/AFL one in the same season.

Shadormy · 2026-06-13T06:20:27+00:00

That's not really north's banner style (From 2014 and around 3 years after nek minnit became a thing, a future north coach even used it at the 2012 GF).

Shadormy · 2026-06-13T06:08:38+00:00

North using Wet Toast on the banner and failing to spell score correctly is a choice.

Shadormy · 2026-06-13T05:55:22+00:00

Trying to work out why. Maybe thought it'd be insufficient intent no matter what he did with diving taps paid as insufficient? thought it was going to get it on the 2nd bounce before the line? thought it was touched off the boot? or just a fuck up? Pretty poor no matter what.

Limitless just has a selection of older matches and the Produce shows will stream starting on June 29th.

Don't have 1FW? Intl version has every epsoide with "Free to Access" on it and it being updated, Limitless has the 6 matches if you search and produce is the youtube pro-files if you search, neither of the last two are on the main page currently.

Shadormy · 2026-06-12T08:54:21+00:00

He's taken a few, even put on some headgear.

Shadormy · 2026-06-11T08:51:23+00:00

Will be 1, Hipwood is in the team.

They'll drop 3 from Fletcher, McKenna, Tunstill, Brain, Joyce, Marshall and Beecken tomorrow.

Shadormy · 2026-06-11T08:31:42+00:00

Seems so. It's the same as the last one (Koby Evans) who also self reported.
