It looks like Africa has recently discovered Twitter/X - for years I've been keeping up with AFL news/gossip/bullshit via the #AFL hashtag, but lately that's been infested by posts about the African Football League (soccer). It was swamped with them this morning. I wonder if they realise what that little cup icon means next to the hashtag...

Does this mean Ted Walker is banned from the MCG?

Absolutely

Not

If you're a player you get a stern letter with a chance to apologise

Saying what every football supporter knows already but this bye weekend is utter cr@p.

It kills off any excitement for supporters knowing their team has made the finals and the farewells for players and teams who didn't make it. It even kills off the excitement of the announcement of the AA team and individual player awards.

Andrew Dillon has to kill this break off for next year and beyond and inse\ert it into the week before the Grand Final when concussion protocols might prevent players from taking part in the last dance.

I have enjoyed focusing on work and making extra money.

Shame they couldn’t of lord kane!

Oh yes, the excitement of AA and individual player rewards. That was always certainly a thing.

Up there with the excitement of making our community proud.

Looks like they put Andy back in charge of entertainment. Have you thought about a big 70s act?

So many good young Australian musos around, who wouldn't love hearing Dune Rats covering Am I Ever Gonna See Your Face Again, or The Chats performing 6 Litre GTR. Teen Jesus and the Jean Teasers, The Buoys... come on AFL, KISS don't need another super payout.

Spend the cash, get A grade performers.

The Chats would be excellent just for the confused Boomers. I'd be logging in with bated breath waiting for raptalia's thoughts on Smoko.

Let’s face it, Crowded House ballads would have been boring as bay out of hell.

I’m taking the weather with you.

Everyone can identify with Smoko

I'm fully expecting those woke bastards at the AFL to replace Advance Australia Fair with Farnsey's You're The Voice. Bring back our Julie Anthony!

I used to watch it every year with my fingers crossed for the likes of Tredders, Ladey, Wings, Boaky & ‘Robert’.

This year I waited for social media reports to drizzle in.

Malaise.

(Or insulating myself from Ted-nausea, perhaps).

My ****ing god.


It’s the same old white dudes at a corporation picking up the phone to call the same old white dudes at another corporation to see whose available, who calls around a bunch of their old white dude mates who get on the blower to old white dude band.


Just cancel Earth already. It’s a botched experiment.

Julie Anthony, my God she would have to be over 70 easy if still alive.
