POSTGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood
When I find myself yelling "run!" and "run the ball!" in frustration at the TV, I know we are in trouble. Another one of those games where we don't play to our strengths, bombing it long and going slow, slipping and fumbling and too darn soft..... Injuries don't bode well, but I reckon we'll be back after the bye.

Smokin' Maxie Video Caption Competition
Witnessed this bizarre and amusing sight after this evening's game. Thought it might generate some amusing titles/descriptions/captions.... 653834819_SmokinMaxie.mp4

Eddie’s Bold Plan to Revamp Umpiring
I like it.

The very, very contentious 50 for Dissent Rule
The umps need to be professionals. Would solve many problems. Pay them as well as players and you'd have every fitness fanatic player-who-wasn't-quite-good-enough fangin' at the bit to be positive part of footy....

Docklands Stadium Makeover
Baseball is very similar..... Went to watch the game and it was the least thing on most people's minds. Very disappointing from an Aussie's POV. Bloody hell, just turn it all off! Maybe get Jack Viney to do an ad, "Even without fan activation, you still have a game kids can love...."

Farewell Luke Jackson
Lots of people overseas refer to it as AFL. Gives me the $h*!t$...

Farewell Luke Jackson
Yeah, they took him to werribee park zoo and gave him a balloon afterwards. Can't stop talking about it....

How many times have you watched the replay?
The numbers don't go that high.

Game plans, tactics and all that jazz
Maybe we are a little hazy in the GF aftermath, but our forward line was dodgy most of last season. If not dodgy, then at least unsettled or less than optimal..... or some other politically pedantic term or phrase. I reckon this season will see that piece of the puzzle in place, and I'm backing BBB for the Coleman and another two of us in the top ten to fifteen.

RIP Harley Balic
Poor bugger. Family tragedy. Keep your eyes out for the signs, everybody. Can happen to anybody, anytime...

Training Ground?
...not Peng Shuai, me thinks...

Glenn Boland
So you're not from the area? Get over to Port Fairy. Take the walk around Griffiths Island around sunset and keep an eye out for the wallabies. I'm guessing the Koroit boys won the Hamden League again...?

Am from the area myself... W'bool, that is. How's the weather?

Best Way to Watch
Yeah, the tyranny of distance, to quote an old one. Tiny population. Havign said that, see my note above re prices in the middle east. And I'm in a tiny country with a tiny population.....
-
Best Way to Watch
Errr.... somewhere in the Middle East. I don't like to say for personal reasons. Paranoia, that is.
-
Best Way to Watch
Try the Middle East. My calculations on the Superloop+Boost combo I mentioned is 47% of the price it is here, and that's with twice the speed and data....
-
Best Way to Watch
Yeah, I've been looking into plans......it's so complicated. Seems that Superloop is best for home net, Boost 12mth for mobiles... Then there's gas and electricity.... Oh, boy. My bro says Dodo do a net+gas+electricity deal that's good. Good luck to you too. I'll message you if we find a good deal on movers.....
-
Best Way to Watch
Yeah, and I'll have to buy 2 memberships: one while overseas and the other to get me through the finals.....

Best Way to Watch
Resigned officially yesterday and am returning to Aus in August 2022. Yeah I know there was another thread about this, but I couldn't search it up, so I'm asking it again: What is the best/cheapest/simplest way to get the footy on TV in Aus? I'm used to the Fox Footy coverage and want to continue with that. Don't want Foxtel or any other cable service with endless "documentaries" about killer sharks or reality shows about man-kini surfer truckers. I vaguely recollect Binman recommending Kayo.....

May I suggest one with the Cup with Demonland logo on it.....

2022 Financial Report
Not having a go at you... Just picking up on something that I hope is a little amusing: Yeah, we were surrounded by hard wokring and brilliant people. Then, eventually, we opened the doors and let some of them in.
