Quite easy to understand. As highlighted in his message, we will not be playing games at Caulfield. So for the VFL, AFLW, VFLW sides we will still need a ground to play on = Casey.

Ahead of last year for the first time. 59,659

I wish my teachers wrote a report like Taylor Whitford did for KFW .....1 mark 1 disposal!!,

....and the original is rather racist.

Yes...one has to think common sense, but no this is the AFL. And since every goal is reviewed before the next bounce, why do a review on the spot and waste time?

Spot on. And if goal umpires have to call for a review if the ball goes near the posts or over the line, then why have goal umpires at all?

The Age also did graphics ( which I can't reproduce here) which just shows how far down the gurgler we are compared to other clubs and the years of inaction by the current Board. Marvel Stadium: State Government $225M GMHBA Stadium (Geel) : State Government $142M IKON park (Carlton): State Government $20.196 M Federal Government $15M AIA centre ( Collingwood): Federal Government $15M Whitten Oval ( WB): State Government $36.6M ( plus land donation, not covered in this article)Federal Government $15M Casey Fields: State Government $5M Moorabbin Oval ( StK): State Government $13M (stage 2 only).

Spot on......This is how you rebuild, not chasing a single player.

Just get a plastic ticket.. 1. Don’t have to deal with Ticketek. Either this round or all of the remaining games. They WILL stuff up again. 2. Readers, apps, and phones are all dependent upon the electronics working. We all know they WILL fail at some point. 3. Stop giving information to the AFL, Ticketek, or some bot ex China about where you are and whether you are going. 4. Much easier to burn the plastic card than your phone…and cheaper, when you get fed up with team performance.

Aren’t they only available 72 hours before game.? Always problematic, just get a plastic card instead. Always works.

Bentleigh club opened 1997 after Joe became president in 1996.

Switching has to have an end result. It used to because you could get an entry into the 50m arc rather than a kick down the line to contest. It simply doesn't happen against good teams any more. Kicking across the ground to a contest on the opposite wing, which we saw in Sydney, is pointless. The result is the same as kicking down the line. It may move the zone on the MCG, but they don't have to run as far on the SCG. The trend for the better teams is to switch left, then back again to move the zone. And then do it again....The two or three kicks needed to get it to the opposite side, as per the traditional switch, is simply too slow for the way the winning teams play. We did it to Sydney, they did it to us. When watching the game, don't look at the ball when a team tries to switch. Look at the HBF for the opposition, and you will see if the switch is going anywhere long before the ball gets there, as the opposition will have it covered or not.

Every other club in the league would want him. I’m sure Bontempelli would be sought by everyone as well, but it ain’t going to happen. Best to stop reading when you see the authors name, and his employer.

But that is what Sydney and other good teams do. They flood across the ground faster than the switch. The switch was effective 5 years ago. But the HBF’s and especially wingers have already blocked the path, before ANY team can kick the ball the 2 to 3 times to move it to the other side.

They can't get the decisions on the field right, the job should be with an independant group off the field .
