The AFL screwed the Roos over with FNF.
Noone else was interested when they proposed it.
Now look at it... everyone wants a piece of that pie.

Crowds were poor for FNF so the AFL decided to share it around and realised what a gold mine it is

North Melbourne and their supporters have respect.
Adelaide have none.
Footy didn't start in 2017.
End of discussion.

Everyone wants us to go to Tassie, just like they wanted us to go to Gold Coast, but no one can tell me why we should do it?

We know we are never going to be the biggest club in Melbourne, the best supported or the greatest attendences, however we work with what we have and still churn out profits, low debt, don't rely on gambling dollars and provide a stable environment for our players.

Less than 18 months ago we won 9 games straight after coming off 2 top 4 years, yet we get all the focus? St Kilda, Melbourne, Collingwood, Essendon have had much worse track records.

All based on what may happen in the future, you know what we may just surprise, like we always do, maybe that is why we get under your skin.

It's been reported that the girl at the centre of the Richmond photo scandal has told police to cease their investigation.

Someone received some hush money..
