Toby Greene ahead of Stengle based on goals plus assists.

Is anyone doing a Yahoo league with spare spots?

If the AFL wants to reduce concussions there are lots of options other than suspending players. require all players to wear soft helmets like Darcy Jones make the ground surfaces softer - when the NRL State of Origin was held at the MCG a number of league people commented how much firmer the...

Didn't have both arms pinned. Cameron grabbed the right arm, but he had hold of the torso under Duggan's left arm. It wasn't pinned.

The grading matrix is also too simple. How can 1) minor concussion symptoms and 2) a KO with convulsions and 3) a broken jaw and teeth knocked out all be graded the same way as "Severe"?

I reckon the Panthers prop combination of Moses Leota and James Fisher-Harris must now rank as the equal-best of the modern era alongside Shane Webcke and Petero Civoniceva.

To measure the speed of game throughout each match, is Champion Data or its licensees publishing any of the following by minute: Metres gained Pressure acts Stoppages

If I had to rate my top 25 by the number of times listened to: Basic Instinct – Jerry Goldsmith The Mission - Ennio Morricone Excalibur – Wagner/Trevor Jones Flash Gordon - Queen Dances with Wolves– John Barry The Empire Strikes Back - John Williams The Karate Kid - Bill Conti Pearl Harbor –...

Half-year NSW Government report card - C. On the bad side, he's bowed to the pokies lobby and undone the most innovative housing policy change (land tax option vs stamp duty) the state has seen in years. Only a couple of corruption allegations, which is less than expected. On the good side...

Played 7 VFL seasons. Finished 11th, 2nd, 29th, 3rd and 4th in the Brownlow before injury made him miss half of season 6. St Kilda won 68% of games he played and made finals 4/7 years. Ian Stewart always said he thought he was only half as good as Baldock. My old man grew up in the 50s and was...

So you think things will turn around under current ownership? Or you think they will sell?

Has anybody seen a list of the all-time newspaper and radio footballer of the year award winners? The Herald Sun award winners since 1991 are on wikipedia, but I'm after the winners from The Sun, The Herald, The Age, ABC, 3LO, 3AW etc

In all honesty, I hope we get relegated ... if it leads to new ownership coming in with the ambition to win the title again. The current slow spiral to the bottom is unbearable. The culture starts at the top, and until we get owners who are prepared to buy the best players and managers, and...

Final guess. 1922: Grand Final v Collingwood (MCG) 1944: Grand Final v Richmond (Junction) 1963: Round 10 v Geelong (Brunswick St) 1970: Round 1 v Richmond (MCG) 1971: Round 21 v Carlton (Junction) 1979: Round 17 v Melbourne (Waverley) 1983: Round 13 v North...

Can you advise if the 7 RoyLion got right and my 7 were the same games?

My entry 1922: Grand Final v Collingwood (MCG) 1928: Round 11 v North Melbourne (Arden St) 1944: Grand Final v Richmond (Junction) 1970: Round 1 v Richmond (MCG) 1979: Round 17 v Melbourne (Waverley) 1983: Round 13 v North Melbourne (Junction) 1986: Elimination Final v Essendon (Waverley) 1992...

Does anyone have a teamsheet from the 1981 and 1982 under 19s Grand Finals?

Have they shown this on the front bar yet?

No Saturday night matches from Brisbane, GWS or Gold Coast please. Lack of crowd atmosphere kills it for TV. No feature games for Carlton or St Kilda until they turn the corner.

Just saw this on Beep Test. Amazing these players agreed to do it. So bad it puts a stain on all of their careers - even Capper.

So are you agreeing with me that lack of free agent pick ups is the problem or do you think it’s something else?

Good point. Their failures before Roos revolved around tanking for draft picks. Now they are coming good they have brought in mature free agents. Admittedly they lost Howe the other way. They’re a long way in front of Carlton.

I think it shows that as Paul Roos says drafts alone aren’t enough to build a good side. You need to bring in good free agents. Gold Coast would be a case in point too and St Kilda. Meanwhile Geelong Hawthorn Collingwood Richmond Swans Essendon Adelaide Port Freo West Coast Melbourne North all...

In 2011 Carlton lost a semi-final to West Coast in Perth by 3 points. From that team, coached by Brett Ratten, only Marc Murphy (then 24) and Kade Simpson (27) played last night. Their team that day included the now retired Chris Judd (then 28), Andrew Carrazzo (27), Michael Jamison (25)...

If you were starting from scratch and choosing the most appropriate national day of memory, tribute and celebration, I'm not sure why you'd go for establishing a convict settlement over Flinders' accomplishment of 9 June or Macquarie's official naming of Australia on 21 December. 19 April –...

Ten years on and we've made some progress. AFL website suggests Ablett, Carey, Dunstall and Dick Lee are next in line. http://www.afl.com.au/news/2017-06-20/hall-of-fame-who-will-be-the-games-newest-legend

Spot on. The charts below compare each club based on the collective draft points value of its playing list at the start of each season 2009 vs 2017. Only players still on the list for that year are counted to the total. The second column shows draft point values adjusted based on how many years...

The rumour is rubbish. Even the Daily Mail says so https://www.google.com.au/amp/www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-3811056/amp/Fans-joke-Wayne-Carey-missed-EJ-Whitten-goal-thinking-Jessie-Habermann.html

I've cut the values by the year drafted, assuming those drafted between 2008 and 2013 are now in their prime. More than half the Hawks value is from drafts at least 10 years ago and a quarter from 13 years ago.

I haven't done the analysis on player career lengths, but Draftguru has e.g https://www.draftguru.com.au/lists/2017/adelaide In terms of the total draft values of all players on AFL lists, I measured it growing by 2 per cent in 2014, and by 3 per cent in 2015 and 2016, but falling by 2 per cent...
