CHANGES: Rd 15 vs Essendon
We're the fifth highest scoring team in the league. Bombers score less than a goal more than us a game.

TICKETING: Rd 15 vs Essendon
probably still would have struggled for a ticket.

TICKETING: Rd 15 vs Essendon
Nothing new here. All of these journos claiming to know anything are just setting a wide range for social media klout. They can't be wrong if they say "as high as" or "between" and then set a wide range. We all know it'll be less than 50% but above 20%. This government has form when it comes to arbitrary benchmarks so they'll probably set it at 29.879% and claim the supercomputer spat out that number. Footy crowds seem quite triviap next to announcements for weddings and funerals. What is someone supposed to do on a Wednesday for a Saturday wedding if numbers are bumped up? Why not announce it on Sunday to allow a full 5 weekdays for businesses and people to prepare? The argument that a jump in cases could then lead to a change again is irrelevant because that's the case regardless of when the announcement is made. The government is simply playing politics here, an effort in minimising perception damage. ie if they announce on Sunday that weddings can have more people and footy can have more people but then need to tighten up again due to more cases, they look bad. But if they announce it two days before on Weds or Thurs, there's less chance they'll look bad. It's pathetic.

TICKETING: Rd 15 vs Essendon
This is truly becoming a joke. Just utter madness. 20%. Why even bother trying to get a ticket. I'm AFL Members so maybe I'll get one?

GAMEDAY: Rd 13 v Collingwood
lol undoubtedly our dumbest game of the year. We pick up the ball on a small ground surrounded by Pies and we just stand there. Time and time again. That's like 6 HTB now. Fmd.

Petracca is up there. Oliver too but people seem to hate him.

Rating 2021 team Against 1998, 2000 & 2018
The 94 team when healthy was imo the best team we'd had since 64, or at least in my lifetime. Many of the late 80s youngsters like Tingay, Viney, Lyon, Lovett, Lovell were all peaking. Just couldn't get them all on the park at the same time. For me it goes 2021 > 94 > 98 > 2000 > 2018

POSTGAME: Rd 12 vs Brisbane
Brisbane looked so strong. We never looked like losing once the second half started. Truly surprised based purely on how well Brisbane were playing. What a win.

GAMEDAY: Rd 12 vs Brisbane
40 more possessions. 14 more inside 50s. 8 more clearances. 6 more centre clearances 11 more contested possessions 30 more uncontested possesions 18 more marks and on and on. We're not winning this. Brisbane is leagues ahead of the rest of the league atm.

GAMEDAY: Rd 12 vs Brisbane
Wiedermans positioning is terrible. You just know Brown would be better in the air tonight.

GAMEDAY: Rd 12 vs Brisbane
Brisbane play a lot like Sheedy's 2000 Bombers. They exploit the rules and do it well. They know exactly how to get away with petty [censored]. Fogan has been like that since day one. They know exactly how to get under the opponent's skin. Team to beat this year.

GAMEDAY: Rd 12 vs Brisbane
Brisbane are clininal. Lucky we're only 20 points down. Could blow out. We're not that bad. Just a bit off it.

GAMEDAY: Rd 12 vs Brisbane
Brisbane are good but I hate their macho persona. They need to get over themselves.

GAMEDAY: Rd 11 vs Western Bulldogs
Brayshaw hasn't had much of the ball but his contest in the air and physicality has been [censored] immense.

COVID & AFL 2021
Tend to agree. All cases linked. If they find cases and can't immediately link them then a lockdown is inevitable but every single case has been related. Maybe reduced crowds.

Membership 2021
Downside to this is you're in the AFL Reserve, which isn't terrible but against Collingwood, Richmond and Hawthorn we're greatlt outnumbered. Plus side is that you're pretty much guaranteed a Finals ticket and if we make the Grand Final against any Marvel-based on Interstate side you're pretty much guaranteed a ticket as well. It's against those bigger clubs with large AFL membership numbers that things get tricky. But even then, no two clubs have combined AFL membership to fill the AFL Reserve. So you basically boost your chances of a GF ticket by a significant amount.
