Well the Lions have access to a genuine academy, so that's the big issue there. It's a massive advantage these days, I mean it's not like Australian Rules football is a new thing in QLD (Not even thinking about NSW....) But regarding free agents, why not add something into the compo formula based on position on the ladder of both teams? Or the other option is a team that takes a free agent gives up draft points. It's clearly a rort at the moment for the big sides, but the biggest question of all is - does the AFL even care if the big sides rape and pillage the rest?????

God help us all if Dannyz mail is wrong. What a bizarre set of circumstances

Looks like autopen for mine

I only noticed when they were all standing around waitign for the ball and the clock was still running. If it was 40 seconds we really need to be demanding answers

The 6 seconds where the locals refused to give the ball back might've been handy

How's that not holding the ball

I guess that's the advantage of actually having a coach

Only if it's on the full?

100%

This is bang on the money. I'm sick and tired of all the BS niggle that's crept into the game. With the AFL going public saying the first free to Rayner was wrong they've condoned elbows in the back 200 metres off the ball. It isn't part of the game, and isn't what I want to see when I watch. I want to see quality players - playing football. Some players are taking every opportunity when the whistle goes to sneak in a push in the back. Daicos even goes for a headlock when he's tackled legitimately. This needs to be stopped, but it seems the umpires have lost control, and now the AFL is ok with it.

Welcome to Frankston

Has anyone checked Blake Howes pass card for the gym? Think it might be busted

Needs to be a wake up call

We are on

I've only got the black lines and audio histrionics

Yep, I'm on like Donkey Kong. Thanks

A Perfect Circle? Then yes please!

Cheers. I'm on the link, but been checking for the usual 'stream your team' link on AFL which I can't see. Definitely streaming?

Is there any coverage of this game? Is it really happening?

How good is Molly O'Hehir

It's live in the UK on TNT, if that helps....

Chris Donlon again? After last week? Seriously

Shouldn't be allowed anywhere near the club after what he did to Jeff White!

Aaaaand.....

Some seriously impressive skills on display from this team. Who's the skills coach?
