    Wonder how easy/profitable that would be for the sporting organizations; Just look at the PL for Example https://www.premierleague.com/news/3703577

    Kozzie Suspension. NQR: Spargo Injured: McAdam, McVee, AMZ, Tholstrup, Melksham, Hore Injured (Depth): Kentfield, Culley And I know he's left but ANB left a hole for Sharp etc. You'd assume Kozzie, Spargo, Kozzie, McVee, Kolt would be in the Best line up if available. That may force players like Howes out of the team when they return, we'll have to wait and see

    Interesting shake up from conservative match day selections, but guess that's a little forced with some injuries/suspensions.

    Yeh but something minor may have happened after that announcement, guess that is the problem with back spasms, little tweak can upset it. Better to play it safe than to risk further aggravation. Otherwise don't think you need to be playing mind games about the selection of JvR. Guess we'll see come 5pm.

    New era, spewing one of my best mates has his 40th on during the game. Will be glued to my phone for updates.
  6. It is enjoyable not being in the firing line at least. Have enjoyed the meltdown at that Flagmantle page though
  7. I see 2 people got bonus points for getting all games in Opening round Correct, there were only 2 games aha. Spoken by someone who got 0/2.
  8. https://www.instagram.com/reel/C-cLuh3PPaW/ This is him talking about the nickname, don't know how to embed instagram soz.
  9. Freo obviously want to bring in Warner and Pickett so something has to give over there. Trawled the internet for some opinions and Freo fans were not in favour of this as they Rated LJ better than Kozzie Worried about Darcy's body If it was a straight swap we'd definitely need to do target someone for that small forward role as it's slowly been reduced over the years.
  10. who is texting who now media fellas.

    This has been my experience the last few years

    that was part of it, Manchester City initiated proceedings in relation to the legality/enforcement of Associated Party Transactions. Funnily enough both sides claimed a 'victory' as such after it was over. But they've gotten into trouble for a lot more than that (failure to provide accurate information, failure to comply with requests, breaching PSR, breaching FFP); will be fascinating to see how that case is dealt with and what the punishment will be. Feel a bit sorry for some of the smaller clubs that don't have unlimited wealth to delay/obfuscate the proceedings. They all took their punishment and moved on.

    UPDATE: Disney has today confirmed that ESPN will launch on Disney Plus on March 26th in Australia and New Zealand on both tiers. The offering tips off with the NBA Playoffs in April, NCAA March Madness, MLB Opening Day, and even more premier sporting events streaming soon, such as the NHL Stanley Cup Playoffs and UFC Fight Night. In addition to the ESPN offering that will be on Disney+, ESPN is available via Foxtel, Kayo Sport, Fetch TV, and Sky NZ at least for the foreseeable future.

    I used to be involved on a committee level at a soccer club, when the GP held in late March some of the clubs that play out of Albert Park (Middle Park SC, Albert Park SC etc) were still locked out of their grounds for a few weeks after, always got fixture reversal requests cos Football Victoria's super computer simply doesnt care about requests/preferences aha
  15. That was me yesterday, thanks everyone.

    Thought this thread was going to be about opening round.
  18. roy11 replied to Demonland's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    Wonder how long he'll be out for.

    Each year Maxy votes one of his team mates for rising star or coleman. Wonder if he was the Harvey Langford shout.
  20. The ailment occurred as van Rooyen was leading in the front third, with the concern similar to what the young forward has dealt with in the past. van Rooyen wasn't risked for the remainder of the game, with Melbourne able to call on draftee Aidan Johnson as his forward replacement for the remainder of the match. Speaking after the 19-point loss to the Dockers, Melbourne assistant Troy Chaplinprovided an update on the hampered forward. "He's had it before but not to that extent," Chaplin said. He went to lead out and it just grabbed, so we tried to get him up and going in the first quarter, hence why 'AJ' came on. "It just wasn't worth the risk. He's pretty sore but he'll be fine for Round 1. He'll have a few days off and get some time with the family (in WA) and he'll be ready to go for Round 1. He'll manage (the concern) and we'll look at his preparation, but it just sort of came out of nowhere for him."
  21. Enjoying Freo fans having a go at the media about this, as if they haven't been frothing over Warner/Pickett articles etc.

    Bit of a difference in predictions here (https://www.theage.com.au/sport/afl/winless-tigers-hawks-on-the-rise-our-experts-predict-season-2025-20250206-p5la7d.html) Jake Niall - 6th Michael Gleeson - 8th Peter Ryan - 11th Jon Pierik - 13th Andrew Wu - 6th Marc McGowan - 9th Sam McClure - 11th Caroline Wilson - 4th Emma Kearney - 12th Libby Birch - 13th Bob Murphy - 11th Mathew Stokes - 13th Scott Spits - 7th
  23. Is this 100%? One of my mates lives in Pasco Vale and BBB goes to the same gym. So he's gone somewhere with better facilities and a very short drive from where he lives, a no-brainer for him but a loss for us. Sad news, loved having him on board.

    I like our current one as well, simple and classic but i'm not against a bit of variety on the logo on certain kits. Understand there are some financial ramifications here as well though. One thing some soccer clubs have been doing is changing emblem on different kits, as seen below Manchester United having full crest on Home (pictured) and Away kit but a special logo on the 3rd strip .
