We're building from being a top 4 team to a team that struggles with 16th. Kenny's dodgy constructions (TM)

That's all 7 have committed to and Foxtel get tough on their rights.lol - no FTA games at all today in Perth and all the WAFL games were played yesterday. Only three games shown on Seven this round for some reason. Five hours of fishing shows on 7Maaaaate though
Friday night games+Saturday night games + Sunday mid arvo games = 3 x 22 =66 + 8 Thursday night games + 3 Melbourne public holiday games =77 games a year during 2017-22 years, when Covid doesn't **** things up, is all 7 have paid for.
Early in the year, 7 sneaks in a 5th game in some states, when there is a Thursday night game + 2 teams from non Vic states play and one clashes with a 7 produced game and one doesn't in the 2 teams home TV market.
I think the AFL has negotiated this to start the season with a bang for viewers.
As the season goes on, the 7/Foxtel deal becomes stricter and 7 aren't allowed to show extra games if the 2 WA, or SA, or NSW, or Qld teams are Foxtel games, but shown on 7.
If Port and the crows had of played Saturday and Port didn't play 4pm Sunday, then we would have only got the 3 games, ie Friday night plus the 2 SA teams on Saturday and nothing on Sunday.
When the 3 split rounds are on the next few weeks with 6 games, and if one of your home state teams (but isn't a Vic based team) plays on a Friday night, the only game you get is when the other home state team plays.
7 is stretching out its 22 x 3 base games over 23 rounds so then becomes 23 Friday night games, 22 Saturday night games and 21 Sunday arvo games, so 2 weeks out 3 between rds 12 and 14 byes, some TV markets wont have any Sunday games on 7.

And if we kick straight against Adelaide (27 scoring shots to 21, lost by 4) and Carlton (26 scoring shots to 24, lost by 3) we are 8-4.
We're already bad enough - we don't need hypotheticals to make us sound any worse than we are.
Big Footy is mostly hypothetical.
Loving the quantum thought going on, casually adding in games results before they've been played

The Crows-loving media regularly use a similar headline to describe a Crows choke. For example that semi final they lost to Hawthorn (Dangerfield's last game for the club I think). The final margin was 12 goals, and the Sunday Mail headline was, "BRAVE CROWS FALL SHORT."As professional athletes what did the Camry Crows do at Kardinia Park yesterday that was so brave?
Not go home at half time?

I wonder how much thought went into the use of this particular pic giving consideration to the theme of the month.

Sanfl - better than the rest!
I'm sure there was thought. Show Ted in an indigenous guernsey to continue their 'redemption of the unjustly maligned'.

Not just racist Ted in an indigenous guernsey but also fending off an indigenous player. The fact that that player has a hyphenated name combining two well known AFL indigenous players' names is bonus points.

I'm sure the old boys at the Adelaide club had a good guffaw over brandy snifters and Cuban cigars at putting that back page together.
I love how Capel calls his idiotic op pieces 'My Two Cents'
Because for 30 years now 2 cents is simply rounded down to zero.
Which is the exact value of his writing.
Has Warren Partland been given the boot? Feels like a story tailor made for him.

Please allow Jacob Surjan (an actual sanfl coach) to retort
Surjan is excited for the opportunities available to Bauer as the AFL Mid-Season Draft looms.
"I’m going to be very excited if Jacob is potentially the first development kid drafted through the mid-season draft from North Adelaide," he said.
"Part of our job is obviously to win premierships at our club, but we still know that we’re a feeder competition to the AFL and we need to try to develop kids to try and get into the AFL as quickly as possible.
Pies, Bombers among six clubs reportedly interested in athletic SANFL forward

Warren Parklands. Still makes me laugh. Who's got that pick of him with the massive collar?
I feel like that photo is begging for an Alyx makeover over accentuating the collar.
Years of West End, Farmers Union, Fruchocs & Frog Cakes went into that look.

Not that there's anything wrong with those...
He's a man that would have found West End eagle blue too fancy for his tastes

We're supposed to feel sorry for North Adelaide because? Not only do I hope they don't win the flag, I hope they fold.

I’ll make tears from your Wines.
The article basically says all teams could be affected.
So it's pretty fair then?
