Billing’s tackled immediately holding the ball Naughton gets paid a free for chopping the arms. Another umpire goal. Why does admin allow this halfwit to spam the match day thread every match? because free speech is allowed AND an opinion is allowed AND it reflects what I hear in a footy crowd arou...

Has anyone figured out that - June 11 start + 16 weeks = end of September - Final series in October So without any interuptions to the remainder of the season, there may not be the need for 4/5 day breaks and it will be Thursday or Friday to Sunday footy as required by ground access and the normal 5...

Win us the game! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EZb-9H0tL2c At the game I yelled BACK! when that happened. Saw teh umpire blow it. Never watched it on replay until right then. Leigh matthews agrees that it wa sin the back ... Good enough for me. Not cheating. A rare correct decision. Just a side n...

Frawley Burns Draw Frawley over Buckets? That one shocks me, would be interested to know why? I'd have Buckets over Frawley 100 out of 100 picks, and I'm not bagging Spud either he was a fine player, I just don't think he was in Loewes class. I looked at it this way, if Buckets had to play on Spud,...

Frawley
Burns
Draw

Question: How does he feel about condensed season and possibly shorter breaks. Geary: Shorter quarters allows body to pull up better. The quarter go pretty quickly. Can play with 4 to 5 day breaks. But longer games would have benefitted us because a good running group. Thanks so much BFUSA for the ...

Bruce Eva introduction with some stats and introduced Matt Finnis who needs a haircut and to trim his beard - just like me! Matt Finnis: - hearteneing to see the Saints members and player sponsors financially sticking by the club - genuine appreciation - last few weeks - pre easter felt "in cri...

Couldn’t Bassat just loan the club $15M ? He could seek repayment at 3.3% 3.3% with no capital return on $15m is a terrible return on a huge sum of money especially with zero security. No bank would lend us that money on that security for even close to that interest rate. The AFL can do it (and pas...

Marketing / community / admin / technology including game analysts etc will have to be slashed.

I am only explaining the competition structure as I was semi involved / one step away from it's evolution in the 90s. As for the AFL revenue sources = each month lost of the season would equal hundreds of millions of dollars in lost revenue - money that usually goes as non loan allocations to the c...

Firstly not a single club would WANT to open their books up to anyone if they don't have to. Some have a choice e.g. Richmond and West Coast. Some have a choice for a limited time e.g. Bulldogs. Most do not have a choice. That includes us. Kennett is grandstanding. Basically he is saying - if you w...

Just a couple of points: - ALL AFL player wages are currently paid and will be paid by the AFL in a distribution to each club. Nothing changes there. The marketing cap is usually paid by the AFL as well but not for 2020. That is $1m approx per club. - The equalisation distribution paid each year to...

The clubs not accepting the AFL deal have the funding to see themselves through the crisis. This does not allow those clubs unrestricted spending on footy departments because the AFL has a cap in place. It means their spending within the cap is not monitored by the AFL. The AFL needs to change its ...

Sounds like a Ponzi scheme to me :wink: JB are you across the details of what control the club signed over to the AFL this past week? No idea at all. Me neither, I haven't had any communication from the club outlining the details of this new agreement that meida is claiming gives full control to th...

As an athiest my overwhelming emotion is OMG. This surely is a wind up. The full magnitude of the financial devastation of this health crisis is atleast 12 months away from BEGINING to be realised by the global community. And talk of angels is cringeworthy. Let's get to the bottom of the reasons by...

I think most of us have already made a "donation" this year under the guise of "membership". Membership and even my seats in my eyes is a donation to start with. I buy twice as many memberships as I need for actual entry. If you view it as saving money from gate entry to games t...

Sorry to be negative But, I don't think people would want to give their hard earned to an organization that is paying part of Jack Steven's pay whilst clearing him for next to nothing. Player wages actually come from payments from the AFL to the clubs - ALL clubs. So the AFL pays Jack’s wage wherev...

... and to make it more free-flowing we could ban tackling, introduce an offside rule, when there is a turnover the game could be paused while the specialist defensive and attacking units change through the dugout, and all free kicks in the forward half lead to two shots at goal by the pinch kicker...

I know many people have real cash flow issues at the moment but the Government are coming up with ways to help and by May we should mostly have some $s in our pocket. We need some angels to give us financial help. I think that the saints should have Rowan Marshall (#19) spearhead an ANGELS campiagn ...
