Samson Ryan was fine - I think even he was surprised to have got two hands to as many high balls as he did. Next step Samo, holding onto the thing. With Green (excellent), Mansell (excellent) and M Rioli (maybe back this week?) around a guy who can always compete, and bring the ball to ground...

Gorringe wanted to make more money thru Sportsbet, naturally much more profitable than List Cloggers etc. Producey doesn’t have much gambling money at all through the business. Sensible split.

Actually found Eddie going on for 10 minutes at a time really interesting. The chat about production companies, networks and where things are going was excellent.

Looked yuck. No mids a la West Coast game. Need at least Hopper in there. No surprise that Dow played well with a bigger body (and Graham too) in the guts. We got bad Marlion this week. Unsure why he played less middle after doing well there last week but I imagine it’s down to mixed up...

As poor as Kozi has been, he's been given a shocking role. Is not a one-out key forward and will never be, life would be much easier as a third tall. Can't play Ryan as number one forward for much the same reason. IMO we have to go: Deep: S Ryan M Lefau Pressure/high half: M Rioli S Campbell...

Right so play the kids obviously but things are never quite as bad as you think. Young and Miller have been incredible since really the Port game in Round 2. They deserve a Mulligan. Miller in particular. Neither thought this was their lot this year. Found a real goer in Lefau. Love seeing his...

OOC this year: Nank, Dow, Green, Ryan, Campbell, Naismith, Mansell, Lefau, M Rioli, Coulthard, Colina, Pickett, Baker, McIntosh, Smith, Trezise, Ross, Graham, Ralphsmith, Grimes, Martin, Prestia, Miller, Cumberland. For me that's: 3+ year deal: Nank, Baker if he stays, Mansell, M Rioli, Ross...

With the greatest of respect...what did people expect? Here's our Round 1 team v Carlton, with the outs today struck out (4/5ths of Short to be fair): Grimes Young Gibcus Short Broad Vlastuin McIntosh Taranto Ross M Rioli Baker Bolton Balta Martin Lynch Nankervis Hopper Prestia D Rioli Dow...

Nankervis, Martin, Dow, Baker …with Bolton, Graham, Pickett, Sonsie, McAuliffe minutes depending on how they adjust. It’s hardly Nank Cotch Dusty Dion (Lambert, Edwards) now is it

Yeah. Liked that. Liked that a lot. IN: Ryan, McAuliffe OUT: Lynch ('string), Baker (suspended)

Kelti chat here is misguided. He was always going to be sub and then found out he was in for triple the game time with about 3 minutes to the bounce. Right now he’s a short term burst player to give us energy, not a 4 quarter player. He’ll be better for the run. Young guys good - game two...

Feel the mids will be OK. Backline felt alright. Turned around a poor start. Gibcus/Young/Miller doesn't fill me with joy (no Petty helps) but that was a solid showing. Young in particular showed up. Big sticking point will be the forward line. Balta CHF works. Kozi deep just needs to create...

The thing that makes me sad about this whole affair is the basic failures, and that these elements were in previous games. For eg: Marking is no fun because there isn't any jostling or bumping. AFL EVO 1 and 2 had these features. Handballing step down from EVO. Kicking power/directional control...

I can answer this - they did a double-header from Box Hill into Williamstown - but surely, it's a chance to run another few commentators? You'd imagine the callerd would be cooked by the end of their stint.

I quite liked it - it's a talk show, there's no headline-grabbing, or sensationalism. It's just footy chat. Anti-Kornes. It's a nice balance, but it's quite beige in parts and lacks liveliness.

Gettable is so dry, I find Twomey really dull. He's a good footy mind and always has reasonable insight but he always potters along in second gear. I don't think he and Beveridge are interesting, and that's a hard listen for me. As far as footy content goes it's OK, but there's little else to...

Changes obviously needed down back but I think we ice Grimes for the week, he’s an old warrior, let him get a proper turnaround for the Jack/Cotch farewell in Round 23. Ditto Graham, I think he needs a deep+meaningful about what his role is because the way his career is going, he’s not at the...

Grimes is done, just really bad Cotchin we knew about Jack we knew about Ben Miller is just not up to it Soldo not match fit Balta bad game out of the box Pickett is not a forward Ross, Young, Vlas, Prestia, Baker, Mansell, KMac, Banks were good Martin and Bolton sensational Ultimately 3...

I like Bradders but he hasn't the tank yet.

reckon Jimmy Trezise has to get a run this week, maybe next. Was at the two's last week, shit conditions, very swirly and damp, wind was quite strong. He was a class above. Marks everything, he's quick, makes good decisions, has a lot of assuredness about him. Best comparison is an ever so...

the melts here have been magnificent, but just wait until they release a 2024 DLC....for another 50 bucks

Nah, this game is done. I've been one of BA's biggest defenders, and was so very keen for this to come out. I'm not a gamer, I'll pour my time into any AFL game for love of the sport...except this one. I've wasted 170 dollars (controller and game) on this rubbish game. I've persisted through...

has a patch gone thru overnight for steam or something? I just picked the game up and it seems ****ed, again.

I have nothing against the back of the box stuff - ultimately if I don’t like it, that’s my call and others think differently. I just don’t think the best strategy is to stay on the thread responding to low quality shitposting using made up numbers while genuine questions are left alone...

I have no sympathy for the 'we built the game from the ground up' argument. Sure, and nearly everything about the game was broken on launch - taking 6 weeks to somewhat fix. And basic features that are central to sports games were not included, or are broken and still not fixed. That you had...

What is crucial to the way I want to play is to try and play quick and fluid, handball chains, short kicks and playing on. I cannot do that at all in the game at the moment, hence I’d rather play Evo 2 that AFL 23 in its current state. That’s just me.

This game has gone from it's dumb, but it's got heart, to outright unplayable over the last fortnight. Teleporting tackles on kicks. Every second mark I take against the AI doesn't register and I'm instantly called to play on = instant holding the ball, Handball receives slow my player to a...

in: Rioli jnr, Banks out: Mansell, Pickett loved Rioli jnr's run in the twos. Banks has been crying out for a debut for a month now and it's the perfect time to give him a run

anyone know if there's a steam patch coming this evening?
