AFL 2024

what even is this season?
Brisbane needed to score the last like 5 goals of the game to beat the Petracca-less Demons at the 'gabba
Sydney lost! at home! to fucking Freo!
Premiership favourites are Gold Coast at home. Spoon favourites are Gold Coast on the road.
Geelong beat Essendon, both teams are absolute frauds.
The Crows beat GWS, who are suddenly just bog-average
St Kilda dragged Port in to a low scoring shitfight but still couldn't win
The other sunday games were predictable as shit.One win is the difference between 3rd and 13th
There are 3 absolutely shit teams in this league. What happens when another team comes in to spread talent even further?
-
bound to happen (although i have had fun say "we might never loose again" over the last several weeks)...speed wobbles, might actually help in the long run, bit of a reality check
-
Random AFL fact i just saw
Hawthorn are the first team in history to be 13th with a positive win/loss record.

AFL is fucked and its awesome, even the north's fan i know is like kind of excited about some good draft picks and doing better next year
-
how good is a comp where nearly every fan can turn up on the weekend thinking they are a chance?
-
@mariner4life and not even THAT delusional, swans have had the most dominant start in recent memory...and we lost to Richmond
-
I went to the Lions v Crows yesterday. Far more tense than it should have been. Lions kicking as many behinds as goals keeps teams in it. The forward line is not working at all.
Crows were pretty good though. They kicked us to death, just finding mark after mark to move the ball. And they kicked straight.Elsewhere Sydney and Carlton both lost, and the ladder got even more congested.
-
Went to GWS vs Carlton, was a fun sort of game. GWS flicked the switch in the second and might have saved their season.
With Sydney losing to the Saints, you could tell me any of the top eight teams will win and I'd believe you.
Think this week might have ended the Gold Coast, Bulldogs and Hawthorn though.

Gold Coast,
Dimma gave them a pretty decent and deserved spray in the press conference

in conclusion...AFL as competitive comp....awesome....AFL tipping....sucks

Rankine will be 3+. A similar incident got someone 5 weeks.
-
Adam Simpson's future now very much in doubt.
Premierships only get you so far, you keep losing and eventually the axe comes.
-
No longer in doubt, goooorn.

Brisbane avoid the dead cat bounce of a shit team at home the week after their coach got sacked to somehow jump in to the top 4
love to see @Kiwiwomble tipping this week
Geelong beat Collingwood at the 'G, and suddenly the cats are back?
Hawthorn beat Freo
Sydney of course bounce back v North
The Bulldogs beat Carlton
Adelaide beat St Kilda who in peak Ross Lyon kick 5 goals
Basket case Dees beat fraud Essendon
Gold Coast were at home so they won
GWS beat the TigersAnd so Sydney are 3 wins clear. Carlton were locked in to 2nd, but they have fallen back to the pack, and now only lead the Cats on %. The Lions in to the 4 after a 10-game run of 8-1-1.
And then it' still a shitfight to 13th. No one is knocked out yet because the teams from 2nd to 13th keep beating each other. Great season. -
@mariner4life ive started picking smokies to try and catch up....so got 7/9
