  1. CW: ABC 7.30 re football and assault

    I am not a fan of #abc730 report but kudos to the team for the coverage of the aledged sexual assult by football players... It was balanced. The abysmal PR spinning by the media and the sporting organisations was called out

    Victims are more important than a game... words matter

    Get your act together MSM

  2. The One-Eyed Dog Podcast
    Three blokes talking about the Western Bulldogs Football Club with limited insightful analysis, no ability to be unbiased, and plenty of yarns about games they've seen...

  5. CW: Tribute, deceased person

    Sad to hear that one of the outstanding personalities from my early years with AFL footie has left us far too young at the age of 42. 😢
    RIP Andrew Krakouer, RIP Legend

  6. "While unknown to most fans, the AFL has a financial stake in its fans’ gambling habits. It receives a cut of each bet placed on its games, or a percentage of a gambling company’s turnover."

  7. I think it was Clive James who said "Only the English can make fast food slowly". However I reckon the average AFL food vendor could give them a run for their money. The vendors always seem so surprised that each new customer actually wants to buy food.

  8. Good news story:

    'A Central Australian football program that has changed lives with a tiny budget is set to receive an extraordinary $57 million donation from Brisbane-based construction magnates.

    'The Redtails Pinktails Right Tracks Foundation, now a registered charity organisation after previously being known as Central Australian Football Club, had run for 14 years on the sniff of “an oily rag” until this donation, founder and president Rob Clarke said.

    'The program aims to mentor and help marginalised young people in Alice Springs, Tennant Creek and remote communities gain employment and become community leaders, while also presenting a football pathway to play in the Northern Territory and South Australian leagues.'

  9. These significant changes to the rules of #GaelicFootball by #GAA look exciting. As an relatively uninformed Australian observer I like them. I also think several of the changes are similar to #AustralianRules football. #AussieRules #AFL

    I miss the AUS-IRL international rules but have made up for it this year by starting to watch some Gaelic sport here in Australia.

  10. However, prosecutors argued that White’s use of a Taser was excessive, given Nowland’s age and frail physical state, and how slowly she was moving. They also argued that White’s statement of “bugger it” before deploying the Taser — a term used to express annoyance or frustration — indicated White was “impatient” rather than fearing imminent violence.

  11. Great Internet traditions:
    1. Australian Football League clubs send-out explanatory emails about when qualifying members can register for Grand Final tickets in a week or two's time.
    2. Clubs indicate that members need to have a Ticketek account *before* all this happens.
    3. Ticketek website explodes under pressure and goes offline - even when there's no pressing urgency.

  12. It seems The Melbourne Demons have got an early start to their traditional late season form collapse.

  13. Is there any legal way to watch #AFL in Europe/Germany without paying an arm and a leg for it?
    Years ago Eurosport broadcasted that each Saturday…

  14. Watching some Aussie Rules. Frantic finish to this game with Carlton needing three goals in the last five minutes and pushing hard.

  15. I love in Aussie Rules football the ref signal for a goal is just finger guns. Two-handed finger guns.

  16. I love a good beer on a Sunday afternoon when watching football. I also love a good dark chocolate. Fortunately there is a combination where I can enjoy both. Cooper Best Extra Stout is magnificent. Creamy, sweet and smooth. Darrel Lea dark is the perfect companion. Would not advise eating chocolate with a lager or an IPA but these two go together beautifully.
    Darrel Lea is entirely Australian owned and use only dairy milk, absolutely no palm oil.

  17. Charlie Cameron is the best small forward in the comp, bar none. Papley, Pickett and Stengle are all OK but Charlie consistently delivers.
