The Eagles indigenous guernsey is a shocker.
It looks like it was quickly designed my an AI program.
Something you would see in a tacky Aussie tourist trap shop.

 

[Clive Kepler]

They should introduce extra time in the h and a.

 

[Stottzy]

A Melbourne team should look to relocate to Geelong. The greater Geelong area is one the top growth areas in the country, would have a cross town rival, a great stadium deal and would probably hold on to their Melbourne area members.

I'm glad you put this in the unpopular opinions thread.

It's just media driven crap, and 90% of people are happy with draws.

Sounds good, I vote Hawthorn.

 

[Stottzy]

Sounds good, I vote Hawthorn.

Did you show your mates this zinger on your work break? "Hey guys, look what I wrote! Got him a good one here"......

 

[Chief]

Needs a poll.

 

[Purple Suit]

No, just curious which Melbourne team would get the poison chalice of being moved to Geelong.

Are you new to Big Footy? Jeez I think he was joking....

Sigh. I'll give you one guess.

teams with history of racism problems really shouldn't wear indigenous guernseys. seeing adelaide, hawthorn and collingwood make money off it is genuinely disturbing

 

[Chief]

teams with history of racism problems

Which is probably all of them bar Suns and Giants, to be honest.

 

[simba_]

probably

I think we can confidently say definitely.

There would hardly be an organisation in Australia in any field that isn’t impacted by racism.

Freo has had the most games played by indigenous players out of the entire AFL/VFL and we only joined in 95. Surely we are in the clear.

I feel like this is very naive view of things.

I’m not saying that Freo would have had recruiters saying don’t draft indigenous players like the Hawks did, but they would not be squeaky clean.

 

[Lavender Bushranger]

Ok, I'm coming off the long run...


1) The blokey handshake after an ex-player/boundary rider or whatever the f**k they are these days, does a lame interview with a player. On what planet does an interviewer shake the hand of the interviewee on camera after a puff piece interview? Absolute amateur hour stuff

2) Over celebrating. I'm looking at you Cody Weightman

, Williams from Carlton, and Naughton. Dude, you kicked a goal. You didn't just cure cancer. Calm the f**k down. Have some humility, please.

 

[Howard Littlejohn]

This bye round is the best round of the season. because north aren't playing to smash the average quality of the league to wafl reserves levels

Or like the Crows did?

Actions speak louder than words and Freo’s record is great but yes, I have no idea what happens behind closed doors. I don’t see the need to throw shade, just in case.

And most would probably have thought it was a great place for women to work…

You probably thought freo didn’t have a wce-style drug problem until hearing Harley Balic’s Dad a month back.

It’s obvious the AFL as a whole doesn’t attract the best people. Everyone happily accepts that 90% of footballers are dumb as shit but we then fill 90% of off-field roles with ex-footballers.

 

[Chief]

probably

Yes.

It's post-match entertainment, not an interview with a scientist who cured cancer!!1!!111

Aboriginal name changes are a good idea but commentators please just say the teams name still.

If the AFL wants to take it seriously, make the name changes permanent.

 

[Bernard Toohey]

The draw between Collingwood and Essendon in the 30th Anzac Day clash gives the perfect bookends to the monopoly those clubs have on the day. From next season it should be a Grand Final rematch
