COVID & AFL 2021
They should put a restriction on active wear at school drop offs. Would be more effective than face masks.

COVID & AFL 2021
I just watched today's press conference. They don't know what variant the latest 4 cases have but will continue to ease the restrictions (good). A week ago the Delta strain was so bad they had to extend the 7 day circuit breaker. These clowns just make it up as they go along.

University research on fans' views of racism in the AFL
My gender has changed since I completed the survey. Do I need to complete it again?

Kozzy’s Preferred Side?
I've been confusing left to right all year. I could swear whoever is wearing 13 reminds me of an old 31. Just back to front.

University research on fans' views of racism in the AFL
I took the survey in good faith. Unfortunately, most of my answers were limited to binary yes or no when I felt I had more to contribute. Then of course came my gender question and I had all sorts of options when it could have just been binary.

Other great comebacks
As a young fella (back then) I remember rushing home so my family could sit in front of the tv and watch the replay

The Coaching Team
The best bit is when Choko talks about how Collingwood lost players because they promised too much salary to everyone.

COVID & AFL 2021
I'd do it on merit. In South Australia the CHO told them to duck and cover if a football comes into the crowd. They also shut the state down because of a pizza box on her advise. In Victoria we have Socialist Sutton who loves the limelight as much as a lockdown. In NSW they have a CHO who seems to understand risk and gives advise accordingly. They are doing the heavy lifting in regards to bringing expats back into the country and don't have lockdowns like us. This new evil strain apparently came from NSW but they are not in lockdown.

Free Kick Differential 2021
What about free kicks not paid? Like for example a deliberate out of bounds with seconds to go in a match right next to the goals?

Does anyone want to bring back the old Demonland?
The old Demonland for me was arguing about a merger with Hawthorn. That irrelevant club is sitting near the bottom and tanking. The Dees are on top and premiership favourite. Perhaps we should have taken them over.

First world problems. I can't even plan a trip to the local pub.

COVID & AFL 2021
I don't bother if I'm not near anyone outdoors. If I see someone coming I put one on. I'm in regional Vic with no cases here during any of the 4 lockdowns. When I go to a cafe or restaurant I can sit indoors without a mask. If I get caught outdoors with no mask I can get arrested. It makes no sense. All the transmissions overwhelmingly occur indoors.

COVID & AFL 2021
It's funny (sad) how all the states get a cheif health officer (unelected) that gives the "health advise" the government want.

COVID & AFL 2021
Australia has a moat around it. NSW take the lion share of overseas travellers in quarantine. They don't keep going into lockdown. The Australian moat modelling show that every other state has been locked down for 6 days on average.

Most Improved Player This Season
Oliver is by far the most improved player. We talk about selflessness and I am not saying he was selfish but he is selfless now. When a game is in doubt he just goes into beast mode. You know he is going to start dragging us up. Lots of others have improved but from a much lower base. Oliver has improved from already being our best player. That is what champions do.

It’s time to say it…
If we win the flag we better not sack Goodwin. I don't want to be cursed for another 50 years.

I hope it's of 1964 vintage

I'd rather go out with my mates and punt than be locked down all the time.

AFLW: Daisy to play on in 2022
I read on another post that Carlton is the only team to win wooden spoons in both the aflw and the men's in the same year. We might do the opposite this year because of people like Daisy. I'm calling Daisy Pearce medal for the AFLW grand final best on ground. Just like the Norm Smith a Melbourne great. When the women's football league got announced Daisy said she wouldn't play unless it was for Melbourne. Norm Smith famously got sacked and said "I am Melbourne" There are similarities.

Where Will We Play Collingwood? (QB Big Freeze)
I'm living in a small coastal town at the moment that has had no cases of Covid. More people are wearing MND beanies than masks when walking along the beach in open air. No positive lingers t-shirts spotted yet though. I'm hoping that big freeze 7 doesn't get overtaken by lock down 4.
