No Oppo Supporters 2024 AFL General Discussion

For right or wrong, at least Cornes doesn’t back down from an opinion. I don’t mind him even if he talks shit sometimes

He's good at playing the villain and going after players who some deem untouchable. Didn't like his comments on Heeney's grand final. Also, going after a guy after he has retired is ordinary. He's the new Robert Walls who was similarly harsh in his criticism.

Stephenson has a heart condition that he has to manage for the rest of his life. Been doing so throughout his AFL career.

Maybe he has to look at life outside of football and the stresses he puts his body through and query why?

Some people can’t understand that Footy is not the be all in some players lives, The decision is a big one for a player to make and more power to him for making the call.

No additional funding: Carlton, Collingwood, West Coast, Hawthorn and Richmond
2nd tier: Adelaide, Essendon, Fremantle Geelong (was Carlton)
Expansion clubs: Greater Western Sydney and Gold Coast receive easily the largest share of additional funding, with a total each of more than $25 million

The Brisbane Lions have been the third-highest recipient of variable funding since 2012 (when GWS entered the competition), ahead of St Kilda, which was clearly the most heavily funded Victorian club for the 11 years until 2023, when they were overtaken on the funding ladder by North Melbourne.

...

The $12 million in base funding does not cover the salary cap for AFL (men) – which was $15.788 million per club this year

No mention of Sydney???

Massive profit: Loss of AFL funds marks Carlton’s return as an AFL powerhouse

Set to announce a massive profit, the Blues will join four other power clubs who do not receive additional funding from the AFL.

For 2023 we were the least funded of the northern clubs. Equal with Power, Doggies and the Demons. Assume in 2024 we are still middle of the road.

Eagle-eyed DQ has just identified that Cotton On sponsor ALL AFLW teams.

I wonder if Patrick Dangerfield has approved of this?

There is something really weird about the whole Geelong endorsements.
