Apart from the close scores the overall standard of AFL has slumped to an all time low. Its like watching under 11 footy with about 30 players all within a kick of the ball.

Aussie team will flop in 2023

out in first round, but there'll be plenty of rainbow flags to distract from the actual football

rest of world is getting better and the window for Australia has peaked

Gee the self-appointed expert on Womens World football

Fantastic outcome for Australia and New Zealand. Unfortunately all the State Government funding is for temporary works at Hindmarsh. There is no permanent improvements. Reflects the interests of the State sports minister. Spot on no lasting legacy for the game in this state, sadly wrong sporting co...

First of more than usual draws this season methinks.

As for the knee thing.

Apart from the close score pretty ordinary game, the shortened games were always going to lower scores even further.

A great player for both Leeds United and England, one of the toughest players in the game at the time but had some excellent skills as well.
RIP Norman Hunter.

From memory Alf Ramsey even played him in midfield for England .

Sad to hear the passing of former Chelsea and Englang goalkeeper Peter Bonetti.

Played 600 games for Chelsea and 7 for England.

That song always gives me goosebumps. Rest in peace Bill, what a voice!

Love his song 'Ain't No Sunshine"

Some differing views on football post Covid-19 worth a read.

Brilliant!!

Yes the old John Martins I enjoyed my time there pretty sad to see it go when it did.

Big question should the EPL clubs give up small percentgae of their TV revenue to ensure survival of many of the 72 EFL? Unlike EPL clubs, EFL clubs biggest revenue stream is gate receipts.

The season should be frozen with the current ladder positions final. Bomber, you will be happy with Essendon finishing 5th.

Playing in empty arenas has seen Port and Gold Coast's chances of finals increase as they are more used to it. Even though not H&A, at least if they see through a 17 game fixture season by playing everyone once only, it will at last be one of the more fairer ladders at the end! With 17 Rounds d...

Bomber I rate our late 70's and 80's sides better. Didn't need so many foreigners back then. there werent too many Englishmen were there??? mostly Scots and Irishman and maybe even an Australian Most teams were same, which is half the point. Teams were built around Brits, and titles weren't bought ...
