Reputation can be found in a user's profile or by moving your mouse over their name when on a desktop. Not sure why it's been removed from the place under the name and there doesn't appear to be a way to get this back in the settings. There may be a third party app at some point that someone creates that will bring this back and I will keep an eye out for it.

FYI I don't believe anyone has achieved the ranks of Captain, Coach, Fuschia or Premier. Also ranks based on post count don't necessarily mean anything.
-
The ranks have always been there but in text form and just relate to the number of posts you have made. The new software update has turned that text to a badge. I've added images to the default badge that the software applied and have tweaked and added to the names of each rank. Rookie Demon: 0 - 49 posts Demon: 50 - 499 posts Mighty Demon: 500 - 999 posts Redleg: 1000 - 4999 posts Trident: 5000 - 9999 posts Legend: 10000 - 49999 posts Captain: 50000 - 99999 posts Coach: 100000 - 499999 posts Fuchsia: 500000 - 999999 posts Premier: 1000000 + posts I'm not sure what has happened to the community ticks which was actually called reputation which was based on the Likes & Thanks reactions a poster received. I will check into it.

That may be true but it doesn't account for some of the non-free kicks to Sydney that I witnessed yesterday for things that were awarded free kicks to the Bulldogs. Admittedly I was wearing a one eyed Sydney hat so that could explain my outrage.
-
The adjudication of the length of passes and whether it has gone the required distance or not is so inconsistent from kick to kick. Often a ball has clearly traveled the required distance only to be called play on and then seconds later it clearly travels less than 15 and is called a mark. The only consistent thing about it is that interpretation is just as horrendous from match to match.

Back on top.

Thank you for your service.

Prior to this round they were leading the Free Kick Differential by nearly 30. Also they are the only team that consistently gets away with blatant throwing of the ball.

In years to come, the old timers will talk in wonderment about the “Avalon Avalanche” that hit Werribee’s Avalon Airport Oval on a mild winter’s afternoon at about ten minutes after the halfway mark of the game between the local Tigers and their cross town rivals, the Demons from Casey. At that moment in time, the game was poised as if on a knifepoint. Up until the main interval, it had been the visiting team which had maintained the lead from the start but it had struggled to entirely assert its dominance in field play on the scoreboard. The Werribee tactic had been to close down play and crowd the Casey forward line preventing the highly talented Demons from opening up a big break in the game. They had one effective forward in Sam Weideman with two goals to thank for their 17 point lead at that stage, one that should have been a lot more. The standard of the game had been poor, the pace at times was barely pedestrian. Then, when play resumed after half time, the home side was ready to strike. It opened up the play, ran into space and for ten minutes took over the proceedings. But for their inaccuracy in front of goal — they kicked 2.4 from several forays into the forward line punctuated by Weideman’s third goal in the middle of their run — they would have been able to snatch away the ascendency in the game and grab a nice lead. As it was, they were down by just seven points but you could sense alarm bells ringing in the Demon camp. Then the avalanche struck. In the space of seven minutes, the Demons ran the Tigers ragged with their superior pace and ball movement into attack with five different players scoring goals to catapult them into an unassailable position. One of the goalkickers was newcomer Kye Declase who was recently plucked away from Werribee per medium of the the Midseason Draft and who has a future in the game. The other was a surprise packet playing just his fourth game. His goal at the 17 minute mark of the third term was his first in the VFL and made up one of the stories of the day. Corey Ellison is a local product from Cranbourne who spent a couple of years on the fringes at the Dandenong Stingrays and missed out on playing alongside teammate Toby Bedford in their 2018 premiership. (Ironically, it was Bedford who kicked the first of those five avalanche goals after some exciting play from Jake Bowey turned defence into devastating attack). After committing to Casey last year, Ellison took to the gym and built himself up during the lockdown and did his preseason with the Demons but the presence of Ben Brown and Weideman meant he was consigned more into defence. He was selected there for this game but, as fate would have it, he was up forward in the third term. Late in the quarter, he managed two quick goals and with the game free and open at last, he added another three in the final term to make it six for the game to match his six goal haul for Cranbourne on Anzac Eve which gained the high flyer his VFL debut on a Thursday night against North Melbourne back at the end of April. Earlier in the day, Bowey had shown his class and composure and signaled that his elevation to the big time was not far away. Weideman was in his element as a key forward who at times roamed far and wide to generate some attacking spark for the team. The experience of Aaron vandenBerg and Jake Melksham shone out in the second half and Tom Sparrow had some big moments before injuring himself late in the game. The two midseason draftees Declase and Kye Turner are coming on nicely. Apart from Ellison, the Casey listed contingent was well led by Mitch White and the tackling machine that is Jimmy Munro. George Grey also showed some flashes of pace and brilliance. With another percentage boosting win to give it a 7-1 record, it is believed that a finals berth beckons in the magical mystery competition that is the VFL in 2021. But all of that depends on a bigger landscape as we await the next avalanche.

Absolutely. Did about 20 of them 2 weeks ago and none of them have panned out just 2 weeks in.

All the games that the Bulldogs have lost this year have shown that they do not have a plan B.

Swans could be whittling the Bulldogs percentage down for us if not for their inaccuracy.

Bont threw the ball and got a free for too high.
