AFLW 2024 - Round 9 - Indigenous Round - Chat, game threads, injury lists, team lineups and more.
Don’t worry, bigfooty doesn’t allow naming of players/people in general unless they’ve already been explicitly named by a major media outlet - which they haven’t. People were already warned against doing so in regard to the Brisbane Vegas saga.
Barrett eh? Shock jock journo.. mention of " RFC's ruthless" is a throwback to the GR days. Cotch embodied it a bit. Not much ruthless about the club at all. Except Gale's vision. Rioi and Bolton $20k fine for fighting.
Cocaine on game day? the speedy effect would wear off quickly. "Speed" might be better. A couple of injections pre game? Caffeine better still. Not sure how performance enhancing they would in an endurance sport like AFL. Melbourne player has it in his system on game day maybe residue from days previous.Sports Integrity Australia released a magazine recently which has a section on illicit drugs in sport. Where are they with the AFL on this issue? We haven't heard a peep from them and this s**t is why they exist

WADA will give the player a 1 month ban if they complete a substance abuse treatment plan. Why is the AFL doing their own version of this outside of WADA/ASADA?
The ongoing effect on Essadon on field continues.
The case in Switzerland was 8 odd years ago. Players banned, club fined people sacked. Penalised in the draft. Ongoing poor performance on field.
As well as Rancey's retirement! Do not underestimate Rance's value to the Club...easily could have helped to snag another GF for us!
I know you've been disparaging of Sportsbet. I guess the AFL get % of all bets so they are not invested in any particular result per se. Ie a Freo win; a Carlton win by 4 points or 10 points. There's no free kick betting market is there? If there was I guess RFC be odds on to win that.People crying about it being bad for betting companies if they don’t get all the right info
The horror of rortbet only making 10.5 billion instead of 10.6 dunno how I’m sleeping tonight
How interesting that going into this round Carlton were double the free kick differential of second place and on saturday were awarded a touched mark into a double goal when they were behind with 1:20 to go. Went from 2pts down to 10pts up without the ball going back to the centre!
