This homesickness thing is very unique of the AFL. More likely than not ,in professional sports around the world, athletes prefer to go/stay in bigger markets or successful organisations. That doesn't seem to be prevalent in the AFL.

How many contested marks and marks inside 50? 🤔 guessing those stat would be very high

God forbid the AFL can no longer fabricate the desired outcomes (like Norfs compo) Actually that wouldn't be so bad.

Peter Bell at Freo? He actually thinks he's a smart list manager 🤭

Good riddance ugly birds.

I wasn't talking specifically about Petty, I was referring more to the broader professional sport evolution. It is also cruel when the clubs treat players like just assets and not people. I do agree I may have become more cynical, just too many negative stuff happening around in the world today.

I am not trying to point fingers towards any particular individual, I just express my perception of the society as a whole. At least when it comes to professional sport, you can see how it has evolved... NBA in the super team era, ditto in soccer with the state sponsored teams (Petro dollars).

The newer generations don't understand the concept of loyalty, honesty and hard work. They only understand the Tik Tok and Instagram "clout", whatever that means.

Must keep our core premiership team at all cost. We have only lost Harmes and Jackson so far. Harmes unfortunately was no longer required and Jackson abandoned ship.

Exactly! Humans are not boulders or projectiles, we can use momentum to spin or bodies (e.g. figure skaters). That f-ing biomechanics expert was full of BS, and btw I hear the rumour he was brought from the 34th ranked university in the country... No wonder he/she had no clue!!

Go away ugly birds! 😤

That was pure good old tampering. Norf gets their ridiculous compensation while Essendon keeps their high draft pick (they have enough cap space to offer this ridiculous amount of money to the "bad" McKay).

Wait for the year Tasmania joins the AFL...🙄🙄🙄

Is it fair to say that this in on Essendon for going hard for a bang average player as if he would be their saviour? Just don't trade for him let him stay at North, honestly AFL is very amateur in how they handle FA and the whole trade process. Can't have a more manufactured system! I guess it's all about entertainment and drama not so much about the Sport.

My filth supporting colleague kept saying "I can't wait to face them next season"... I was like 🙄🙄🙄 mate enjoy your premiership and shut up!

It's borderline tampering with fair competition, just look at the JHF situation.

Is he even aware he is no longer playing basketball? 🤔🤔🤔

Second farm in the outskirts of Pakenham.

We should try to recruit Angus' brother, once he sees the wheels falling off at Freo 😏😏

Not really, I didn't go out of my way to look at what the Bulldogs, Lions or Geelong supporters were saying about us back in 2021. But it is to be expected from the most self-centred club in the competition, it is always about them.

Is Jackson regretting his decision to leave us?.... wait a minute he's got 900k one dollar bills to wipe off his tears.

Once you put on that jumper you close the door to the Dees!

Dodgy AFL!

Him and Cox 🤢🤢🤢🤢🤢🤢
