    SEN's list of each club's best win from the past 25 years

    Fair enough, but as neutrals my brother and I immensely enjoyed that final round win over Carlton in 2022. I don't think I'd ever yelled at the TV to urge the Pies to get up until that game.

    AFL overtaking NRL in QLD

    I'm not well-versed in school footy, but I think with rugby union on the slide, there could be an opportunity for Aussie Rules to take its place. The way things are going, I could see athletes with the right body type picking either Aussie Rules or league to pursue professionally.

    AFL overtaking NRL in QLD

    I was surprised by how much AFL I saw being played on tellies in the pubs up in Sydney when I visited in the middle of June this year. I wouldn't say it was everywhere, but just walking around the CBD on a bit of a pub crawl, it was being shown in a fair few venues. My mate who lives up there...

    Opinion Joe Daniher - Will he be remembered more as a Bomber or a Lion?

    I loved the finals series Daniher put together and would have liked to see him go round again and be part of the Lions' premiership defence. In saying that, if it's time, it's time. He bows out a premiership player after a pretty solid run of form in the games that mattered most.

    No Oppo Supporters OPPOSITION OBSERVATION XL

    He put together a great finals series. I watched all the Lions' games this finals series and he literally save their season against GWS and I believe changed the game against Geelong, even if via necessity. Goes out with 2 goals in a winning grand final as well. Only thing I wonder is whether...

    Review Grand Final, 2024 - Sydney vs. Brisbane Lions

    Well done on a fantastic win. So many likeable players at your club: Daniher, Cameron, Ah Chee, Lohmann, Bailey, Fort, Big O, Ashcroft. Fagan a fantastic coach. Good to see the win in the classic maroon strip, too. Enjoy the night.

    AFL Grand Final AFL 2024 GRAND FINAL: 2024 Premiers BRISBANE LIONS

    Well done to the Lions, just so composed all game. Executed their gameplan to perfection. Love that they won this in their classic maroon home kit too.

    Review Preliminary Final, 2024 - Geelong vs. Brisbane Lions

    Well done on a cracking game of football. I hope the Lions can get over the line in the granny this time. I'll be watching the game with my brother who's a big Lions fan. Big ups to Daniher as well, he just did what he had to do today and has had a strong last couple of games for you guys.

    Autopsy AFL 2024 Preliminary Final - Cats v Lions Sat Sept 21st 5:15pm EST (MCG)

    Got the prelim we deserved despite the umps again putting on a show of their own. Well done to the Lions, another incredible comeback. Very keen for next week's granny, two clubs with a lot of history in Victoria. Hopefully they both turn it on again.

    Autopsy AFL 2024 Preliminary Final - Cats v Lions Sat Sept 21st 5:15pm EST (MCG)

    Still can't get over the intense cut scenes between Holmes and Scott. Thought I was watching The Days of Our Lives.

    Autopsy AFL 2024 Preliminary Final - Cats v Lions Sat Sept 21st 5:15pm EST (MCG)

    Might need to sub the Big O. He looks very proppy and is basically nursing that shoulder. I'm not sure playing a one-armed ruckman for the rest of the game is going to work out for the Lions.

    Autopsy AFL 2024 Preliminary Final - Swans v Port Fri Sept 20th 7:40pm EST (SCG)

    The umpiring's all over the joint with this one. Has the makings of a good game though.

    Society/Culture The Welcome/Acknowledgment of Country thread

    This is why I (as a white person with European ancestry) prefer the term 'First Nations.' I'm no expert on the subject, but when I take a look at the map of all the nations and their language groups, plus the clans, tribes, and dialects within those nations and groups, I feel that we've...

    Current Trial The 2002 Disappearance of Amber Haigh *Married Couple Arrested & Charged

    I was worried about this being the verdict over the months I followed this story. There was no strong evidence that put this case beyond reasonable doubt unfortunately. I do think it's likely the accused did take Amber's life but the prosecution just didn't have enough to get the result they wanted.

    Autopsy AFL 2024 First Semi Final - GWS V Lions Sat Sept 14th 7:30pm EST (Engie) Teams in OP

    Giants went into their shells in that last quarter. Strayed from the gameplan they implemented for 3 quarters and tried to slow it down and play a bit of keepings off much too early. Maybe they were gassed from how much hard running they do, or maybe they got nervous trying to protect their...

    Player Watch #4 Dustin Martin GOAT and King of Punt Rd - OFFICIALLY RETIRED

    I feel the same about getting caught up in the retirment hype. I didn't go to the last game of the season but I watched him do his retirement lap and walk down the race on telly. I had goosebumps watching it and felt a sense of loss at what I thought was him walking off the field one last time...

    Autopsy AFL 2024 First Qualifying Final - Swans v GWS Sat Sept 7th 3:20pm EST (SCG) - Teams in OP

    What a finish, players from both teams absolutely out on their feet and just trying to find an extra little bit to get the job done. Can't believe how loud the SCG was as well, what an incredible atmosphere. As good as any in the AFL.

    Anthony Albanese - How long? -2-

    Very weak from the ALP. They stand for less and less as each week passes. You could replace Albanese with a cardboard cut out at this point and watch it get blown over in the wind and no one would know the difference.

    Autopsy Roast & Toast v Gold Coast

    Toast: the Tiger Army. I was at work but was listening to Triple M during the 3rd quarter when Marlion Pickett was subbed on. The roar and applause for him was huge and came blasting through the radio. Seeing everyone stay back to farewell Dusty, Grimesy, and Pickett was also special to see. The...

    Teams Wests Tigers

    So great to see a win, especially at Leichardt. Really good to see the opponents being ill-disciplined and copping the sin bins for a change as well 🤣. I feel like if we can sort out the centres and wings next season, we could win a few more games. There's some emerging talent in the squad...

    Universal Love 2. Dylan Grimes Retirement

    Hats off to a great defender who was always willing to through his body at a contest, whether to make a spoil or a tackle. I wasn't a particularly big fan of his early on and thought he was a bit ordinary, but my view in the following years changed a lot. Grimes was the sort of player I really...

    Roast Better get yourself a lawyer son

    My unsolicited opinion as a Richmond fan who has seen the footage is that Wicks was a bit stiff to cop 4. Looks like Wicks and the bloke he tackled tripped over another fallen player, which resulted in a bit of a head knock. Anyway, back to the Richmond board.

    Retiring Tom Hawkins- Retires

    What a fantastic career. I'll remember his ability to physically dominate his opponents and those massive boulder shoulders of his. A true power forward in the modern game.

    Universal Love Martin Retirement

    I almost feel like I'm in mourning. What an absolute legend of the game. He's done it all his own way right to the very end. I don't know that there are enough words to describe his impact on the history of this club. All the best in retirement.

    Autopsy AFL 2024 Round 21 - Pies v Blues Sat Aug 3rd 7:30pm AEST (MCG)

    A fitting win for Pendles' milestone. McGovern did not look confident at all taking that kick. This season just keeps producing.

    Autopsy Roast, Toast & Changes for Saints

    Basically kicked ourselves out of it. A few of our players have been talked about a lot in trade discussions recently and I'd be happy to see them traded for picks at this point.

    What's your advice to Richmond with their rebuild?

    I don't think stripping the list or holding a trade fire sale is a good idea. I look at North Melbourne as a cautionary tale of what sort of damage that can do. Obviously if there is talent with only a few years left who still have a bit of value with clubs sniffing around (thinking Rioli's and...
