Let’s be legit. There is no chance he played C grade. He was out from the magpies and listed on the injury list for the next few weeks until he played for them again.
Athelstone hiding stuff and cheating the system.

The same as the footage from the anything is content TikTok handle.
Funny how it’s been deleted. Showed the Athelstone bloke stunned and [emoji817] concussed
And I bet he plays this week.

haha they took that down did they............brilliant.

The captain was 'Should this bump be weeks"

It backfired on them with everyone commenting on how the Athlestone player 100% has to miss this week due to his concussion which was clear as day in the footage.

Must have got in to see the Chics medical staff

Melbourne have delisted two players:

- Josh Schache
- Kyah Farris-White
How Schache has been at so many clubs is astonishing

He's 6'6 with a decent kick

As Dan Gorringe put it, if you're a midfielder you have 2 years to prove you can play at AFL level. If you're 200cm, you have 8 years to prove you can't.

Collingwood defender John Noble has today informed the Club of his request to be traded to a team outside Victoria.

The 27-year-old arrived at Collingwood at pick 14 through the 2019 Mid-Season Draft and is contracted with the Club until the end of 2026.

Collingwood Head of Football Strategy, Innovation and List Management Justin Leppitsch said:

“John today informed us he would like to explore a trade ahead of next season to be closer to family.

“Whilst John is contracted, we understand the importance of family and will take this into consideration as we work through the trade period.”

AFL website says he wants to go to the Gold Coast. Not sure that's a great idea with his complexion...

Big congrats to Booney's ChiSox.

With a record of 31-100, it's now the worst record through 131 games in the last 108 years.

Just realised the long walk up the aisle from the first row leaving early when we're 15 goals down will be fun. :?
Especially with a copper on each side of you.

Gave me flashbacks to the 1991 elimination final between Port & West.

Glen Goss and I think Scott Hodges got into a dust up right near the fence at the northern end. Some little Port numpty thought he'd lean over the fence & grab Goss in a headlock.

The shock of it stopped the fight on the field, and little Dazza sits down next to Shazza like he's king of the hill.

Gets a tap on the shoulder from the boys in blue a couple of minutes later, and is escorted out, right past the Bloods cheer squad. Is then showered in empties, beer, food and anything else within arm's reach.

We were sitting behind the cheer squad, was quite an eye opener for some boys from the country!

This much

There seriously needs to be a dislike button on this website...

Shoe Boy like a lot of us is probably trying work out what benefit a metro league like the SFL gets out of playing in a Country carnival. Other than the maroon coats puffing chests out looking all important../

Sooner SFL is put into the Adelaide Footy League the better

So, scrap the whole of team playing on Saturday for the disjointed juniors on Sunday, Seniors on Saturday? AdelFL would be the worst option for the SFL.

It's no coincidence that teams like Brighton are experiencing a disconnect between juniors and seniors. Kids don't invest in their club and move to play with mates at the drop of a hat, there's no connection with seniors team when you can't stick around for the late game

In regards to the State Champs, ask the blokes that play for Southern how they feel about it. Pretty sure your boy Galley would be a big fan, given he played State Country and all

Sproule laid a tackle?! That's one more than last season's tally

You work harder when you're paid more

Wouldn't be the first big name to avoid a suspension come finals time

Ok that makes sense because my recollection was from the moment he got to Norwood he was gun.....albeit there was a period where they didn't know if he was a forward or a defender.

Would have been surprised if he slipped to 70's based on what he did at Norwood.

Pretty sure he was the second youngest player behind Ken Farmer to kick 50 goals in a season

Munn's talent/ability has never been questioned. If centrals can get him motivated/fit he will be more than handy at this level.

Never been questioned?

In his last stint at League level, over 8 games he averaged 0.3 goals, 6.1 touches and 2.9 hit outs as a key forward.

Massively over hyped IMO.

Good luck with that! :lol: :lol:

SANFL are basically saying dont do any hard work developing participation rates in your zone any more as we will use that to benefit the lazy clubs
You can't be serious, South have been just as active, if not more so, in junior development as Glenelg have.

The way the Glenelg school comp fell to bits about 8 years ago was embarrassing, not sure that's putting time or effort in

field of dreams wrote:How many points would those 4 be?
5+3+3+3?

Using Mt Compass math, that would be a total of 3

I think there's going to be some interesting revision on this subject come this time next year

azza1719 wrote:Bit surprised by Coff returning to Centrals. Attitude and faking injuries to avoid training has been an issue in the past, hopefully all that stuff is behind him and he has a good crack at it this time around

I'm surprised they even bothered bringing him back, he's miles off it

Booney wrote:Loss 109 in coming.

With 22 games to go we have 6 games against AL West bottom placed 57-80 LA Angels. We might get a win or two there. Might.

On track for 120+ loss season. The 1962 Mets lost 120 games.

Rookies.

Mets won it in '69, only seven more seasons to go!

Essendon have delisted Nick Hind, Tex Wanganeen and Kaine Baldwin.
Unfortunately never saw the best of Baldwin, was on of the best juniors i ever saw until injuries. Surprised Wanganeen was still on the list Kaine has been offered a train on spot at the club to get picked up in the SSP if he can overcome injuries
Was hoping he’d come back to The Bay.

I just don't think his body is up to playing AFL, all these leg injuries and speed was never his one wood.

He'd kill it in the SANFL

From Twitter:

Zack Greinke had a career .336 slugging percentage.
The 2024 Chicago White Sox are slugging .338.

For the uninitiated, Zack Greinke was a pitcher. A good hitting pitcher, but a pitcher all the same.

The ChiSox are an actual baseball team.

Sam Docherty named to play for carlton after an ACL in round 1. Good story but not sure its the right call, obviuosly the medical staff know more than me and hope he gets through. His previous 2 games have been against Brisbane at the Gabba (Rd 1 and prelim final last year)

Maybe they've consulted the Chics medical staff and got the all clear?

I'm with Jimbo

I detest the check out at Aldi

Disappointing if thats the case

He won't be the only one, it happens every year.

And at every club.

Players make lifestyle decisions in lieu of the demands of SANFL footy

This is the big one. Players are expected to train/prepare like AFL players, but they hold down full time jobs at the same time. Something has to to give.

shoe boy wrote:Why is Southern sporting pulse the only league not showing APPS ?

Can anyone supply total APPS for each club.

Might be a good opportunity for the $Hoe$ to fill an U17.5 team, then.

Splash the cash on the lower grades, so they can have a proper competition, aligned with the seniors.

Divers wrote:Double cause we have 2 u17 teams, just shows where juniors want to play

Also goes to show how much effort your mob put into your juniors, seems to be a program on the rise

Happytowatchlocal wrote:Wineflies and Flagstaff should be worth a watch.

Port Noarlaunga in trouble? Happy Valley might think they have a shot after the weekend.

That's the GF preview for mine, barring a monumental upset happening in the prelim. Porties looked light years off it.

SFL have always listed tribunal results weekly.
It would appear transparency is an issue this year including APPS.

https://websites.mygameday.app/assoc_page.cgi?c=0-6133-0-0-0&sID=394399

Yeah, real transparent, they don't even include names...

Speaking of transparency, can you enlighten the rest of us as to how your club aims to restore some decency to the U17.5 competition?

It’s been a political clusterf@&k.

$3b on a new stadium with 50-60k capacity

Versus

$1.6b on a temporary stadium in the burbs that has no lasting benefit as the extra seating will be pulled down after the games

$500m on the Gabba with no increased capacity

$500m on suncorp stadium which fails to help afl & cricket at all.

I can’t believe it’s still up for discussion

Is that QSAC? Great facility, but you shouldn't be holding the Olympics out in the 'burbs

Dimma’s timing was impeccable.

Taken straight from the Sir Alex Ferguson playbook. Set the joint up for failure then bail, you look like a demigod.

gazzamagoo wrote:We'll have him thank you!

He'll be a great get for the Dogs

Hardly short at 178cm and strongly built. Finds the footy in close, and uses it well. All of those attributes place him ahead of plenty who have been drafted before him.

He's short by AFL standards. And 75kgs is barely "strongly built", he'd get monstered by AFL inside mids.

As others have pointed out, he butchers the ball. He'll go down as a Sturt great but clearly there's reasons why he's never been listed.

Was surprised Port might want to trade a Brownlow medallist.

Looked it up and a fair few Brownlow medalists have been traded after winning the medal

-Tom Mitchell
-Gary Ablett
-Adam Cooney
-Ben Cousins
-Chris Judd
-Jason Akermanis
-Gavin Wanganeen
-Greg Williams
-Tony Lockett

There was no way on God's green earth that Wanganeen was traded by Essendon. Absolutely no way did the club want to lose him

Surely Tom Lewis is a definite to go? I really didnt realise how good he is til the back end of this season.

I just don't get the "Lewis for AFL" hype.

He's not quick, is short, and tackles. How that's applicable to the modern AFL game is beyond me. Tsitas is a better version, and he can't get a game at the Suns.

He's a gun SANFL player, and there's no shame in that.

I still can’t get over that last 25 minutes by Cleary, I can’t recall a better performance from a half in a GF, WOW

Line break for Leota to score.

40/20 in the next play to get territory and set up the Crichton try, nails a tough kick from the sideline.

Takes the Reynolds drop out on the full to get a 20 restart and again command the territory.

Breaks the line and scores himself.

No Yeo inside. No Luai outside.

1 man dictated to 25 others what happened in the last 25 minutes of a Grand Final. Amazing.

Did all of that with a PCL strain, too. Has a resume at 25 that most players would sell their left nut to have for a career.

Tago & Sorenson were also off, watching the most amazing spectacle from the sidelines

The Bedge wrote:Grown bored of the Brahma bashing - not as much fun when no one from their club is on here to reply anyway.

Well, that was quick, and unsatisfying. Hope this is out of the norm for you...

What message does that send the kids? At such a young age.. that they can run around the next 10-12 years with zero loyalty demanding top dollar as an average footballer?

Honestly, I always thought playing for big bucks was something you did after you won a few flags, played several seasons at your local club and were looking for a easy gig in your late 20's. Not fresh out of junior grades...

Integrate SANFLW into the comp possibly the replace the reserves.

You had me up until this point. This is what the VFL did and it killed their comp.
You lose the pathway from U18 to League with no reserves. How do you transition to playing against decent men's teams without it?
As far as costs go, most weren't getting paid during the COVID years either, so costs would be minimal. A lot of clubs encourage or insist senior players get sponsorship as well, so you lose that income straight away.

The rest of your points are valid, but removing the ressies in favour of the SANFL would be a fast track to failure.

whufc wrote:Yeah surely if a proper AFL reserves come in it will be genuine reserves games before the AFL games to keep it simple.

You're making a huge assumption that the AFL deal in common sense...

For me, a good commentator is someone who just calls the game - throws in the odd stat or trend, senses changes in momentum or big occasions and doesn't try to go over the top.

BT, Slater, Warne - struggled to listen to these blokes coz it's mostly was/is just waft..

Warney was a terrible commentator, just harped and harped on a point if he thought he was correct.

Going to see plenty of slow mow highlights of Davey jumping in the air giving it a punch. Will the background music be coldplay, temper trap or powder finger.

It'll be something humble and understated, knowing him

Sportsbet offered $5.50 for 2 of Warner, Labuschagne, Smith, Babar to hit 100 in the first innings this test.

Just hope one of Labuschange and Smith get a bat. :lol:

It could end up like that 12th Man skit about the Aussies Playing Sri Lanka in a ODI
