Impact of rule changes
once the kickeriner moves outside the goal square it is play on for all concerned. whilst in the square the nominal man-on the mark can't be interfered with, as i understand it the mark is set at 5 + 10 (now) metres in front of the square. but what about the sides of the square? is it 15m there too? they should use more diagrams to explain

Hunt Set to Reset
yes ernie, and hudson, unlike the other great full forwards around his era, was not a great overhead mark, he was just such a smart footballer (not flashy to watch) who just found ways to kick goals, with spectators often surprised when told he had kicked a lot more goals than they had thought. would be a great in any era because he just had so many tricks to his game. his stock kick was just an ugly but very accurate flat punt kick

absolute rubbish. have you seen the size of glenferrie oval? not to mention what a mud heap it (any many suburban grounds) was in those days. Hudson got a lot of his goals from ground balls. he was a goal kicking machine in *all* conditions

i did say let's look at where bb (t20) is another 10 years or so. like i said odi was hugely popular in its initial years too. made for tv stuff usually has a use by date. even big brother didn't last (thank god) LOL

well the aflx teams aren't even based on city. seemingly no logic there in their team 'affiliations'. still think soo would be better than current choices. i also get the feeling bb is starting to wane. i now hear more complaints and disinterest than before. Will be interesting to see where bb (t20) is in another 10 years or so. Too many millionaire 2nd and 3rd rate cricketers playing bad cricket. I remember when ODI took off and what a revelation the 'short form' was and how popular. Now it's a mere shadow of itself. there are already new cricket formats (shorter than t20) being rolled out. cricket seems to be burning the candle at both ends and leaving both the worse off. if i was the afl i wouldn't be looking at cricket australia for inspiration. it's all just an opinion, macca, and i'm not against positive changes at all, but the afl don't seem to be making much of a fist with aflx and doing an even worse job trying to spin it. it reeks of over-reaching by over-paid afl executives who like to revel in the limelight

well no-one is suggesting the sky is falling, macca and i did make a positive suggestion that it could have been differentiated by state of origin (even with marvel themed logos) instead of the nonsense teams they come up with i'm yet to meet many people young or old who are excited yet alone even slightly 'aroused'

it may be typical afl misguided blundering, nc, but it really is just more of the afl bottom-line exploitation of anything. some might even call it virtue signalling. why they didn't just make it a state of origin i can't fathom - vic, sa, wa, rest
