  1. IMO, I'm pretty happy with level of media content. I think they did a great comprehensive job post GF. Yes, it's 2024 now, but I'm bit old school and don't use social media so happy with just photos and videos they release on their website and what afl.com.au website spits out, usually posted on both sites anyway. I particularly like the videos of players not just footy focused and any charitable activities they do, that's always refreshing.
  2. Love Thursday night football!
  3. Amazing how he bowls around 150kmph off such a short run up!
  4. Petracca is incredibly quick for someone his size and weight, definitely not one paced. Amazing blend of strength, power and speed and obviously has a tank to play midfield. What's so unique about the Trac is he able to tap into these abilities pretty consistently throughout a game and would say he does run down opponents a fair bit for his size, don't see this much for comparable players like Martin, Stringer. '21 GF probably best example of the aforementioned.
  5. Agreed. He was sorely missed in that game, could of been the difference! Looking forward to his season this year!
  6. Every 'mark in the pack' game I ever played...
  7. Wouldn't be so bad if he dropped a few here and there, just not all the time 😉. Think Kozzie finally held one against Blues this year, and JvR held a few good ones, Swans and Tigers I think 😁
  8. Viney's last 2 seasons in particular have been phenominal. Getting on the end of some goals, too. Really elevated in Oliver's absence this year. Just puts his body on the line, week in, week out, absolute champion!
  9. JvR almost taking Roach-like marks excites me!
  10. Very highly anticipated debut, reminded me of the build up to Hogan's debut years ago. Great to see his huge pack marks, aggression at the contest, very good debut season. Would rather see JvR do rucking only in forward, and as he becomes stronger could do what Hawkins does well and goal from forward ruck contests. Only thing I would like to see in JvR is to channel his frustrations when he's out-marked. Not sure if anyone noticed, several times throughout the season when out-marked, out of frustration tried to hit the ball out of the opponent's hand, from what I recall, missed every time but obviously would be a 50 metre penalty. Not a bad thing, obviously has a strong hunger to get better and beat his opponent at every contest, which is a good attribute as a key forward ❤️💙

  12. Weird move by AFL, think there are more pressing issues. Seems like a political correctness agenda. Might make match ups a little tricker for opposition analysts with access to oppositions heights only. Might have to get WikiLeaks onto this stuff.
  13. The music makes me want to limbo.
  14. AFL Latest Videos - AFL.com.au https://www.afl.com.au/video/1072057/leading-goalkickers-every-kysaiah-pickett-goal-in-2023?videoId=1072057&modal=true&type=video&publishFrom=1704394800001&tagNames=AppNewsFeed:Yes Kicked a lot of freakish goals this year. I liked how Kozzie was deployed in centre bounces, too. Mind you, he's still only 22 so plenty of upside. Looking forward to seeing Koz tear up the MCG in '24.
  15. That's a good omen, I'll take that!
  16. Big fan of the Chin. His goal kicking accuracy is pretty good, hard at the ball, and has a good leap and very strong over head marker for his size, this is a really underrated skill of his. Could make a formidible partnership with likes of Kozzy, McAdam in '24.
  17. I still love test cricket best!!!
  18. I like all format so no bashing from me. Dee fans at the cricket!? Can't go wrong! ❤️💙😁 Enjoy!
  19. He will make a fortune! Will be in high demand for a few years yet! I think he will do really well once he retires from test cricket and can concentrate on being explosive and destructive batter that he enjoys being. Would be some effort if he made the '27 CWC!
  20. Definitely winnable game by Pakistan. As you said, missed a few chances. Made a good and respectable battle with the Aussies. Onto Warner's swansong match.
  21. Haha, I will take the commentators curse 😅
  22. Pakistan a sniff here.
  23. Good day today, thanks to all that believed in me that I would. Both Pakistan and Australia played well throughout the day. Few missed chances by Pakistan in the field when they were on top gave us the ascendancy. Hamza and Afridi bowled well. Hard to see Marsh miss out on a ton, funnily I went years ago when Shaun got run out on 99 at the MCG, brothers, hey!? Good crowd, not sure figures, felt like between 40,000 to 50,000ish, good atmosphere.
  24. Accidently pressed 'report' button instead of quote button, hopefully DRS works on that too so you're not 'out' 😅😁 That was crazy stuff 2 DRS reversed in a row! Even the umpire saw the funny side of it 🤣 I cheered loudly at the TV when the third ball wasn't a DRS decision hehe. Good game we have on our hands! Going tomorrow, first Boxing test in 8 years! Long overdue!
