The title is click-bait. There is no such thing in Portugal as no-one in this country has any idea of what AFL is, although my local grocer was a former member of the Portuguese international rugby league team. Anywho, anyone travelling here in the Australian ski-season is welcome to send me a message, as I might have a place for them to stay between Cascais and Sintra. This is not one of those serial-killer scenarios which apparently helps @WalkingCivilWar get to sleep at night, and I have a heap of credits inviting other members of this forum to stay at my place in various parts of the world sans murder, while also accepting some very kind offers of hospitality in return.

    I was in Lagos and Albufeira last week. Maybe a bit early on that one… Could easily live in the Algarve though.

    Did you go home already? I just got back from Aljezur on the west coast a couple weeks ago, but then had to go to Belgium. Back in Portugal now.

    I did recruit at least three people to the MFC cause in Mozambique, a country which has remarkably seen live AFL action in the past: https://www.theage.com.au/sport/afl/afl-to-stage-match-in-africa-20110509-1efte.html

    • AFLW: 2025 Season Preview

      Ten seasons. Eighteen teams. With the young talent pathway finally fully connected, Women’s Australian Rules football is building momentum and Season 2025 promises to be the best yet. In advance of Season 10, the AFL leadership has engaged in candid discussions with all clubs regarding strategies to boost attendance and expand fan bases. Concerningly, average attendances in 2024 were 2,660 fans per match, with the women’s game incurring an annual loss of approximately $50 million.

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

    • POSTGAME: Western Bulldogs

      The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
