Re: AFL Round 21
Is it still too early to talk about Clarkson not improving the Roos?
I’ve left it another year…. It’s still too early isn’t it?

Re: AFL Round 21
I really thought they would improve this year. Not enough to play finals but capable of 7 or 8 wins at least. Anyone that finishes below us is pretty damn ordinarymots02 wrote:Is it still too early to talk about Clarkson not improving the Roos?

Re: AFL Round 21
I'd like the AFL to try something silly like put the whole fixture out befoer the season starts rather than have a rolling fixture for them to doctor midway through the season so they can ensure the teams they want to play finals footy.dedja wrote:Wondering how this year has fared compared to past seasons with regards to the average winning margin … have seemingly had more thrashings than usual, but don’t have the stats to confirm.

Re: AFL Round 21
10000%, set the fixture before the season, perhaps numbering the rounds sequentially starting from 1.Lightning McQueen wrote:I'd like the AFL to try something silly like put the whole fixture out befoer the season starts rather than have a rolling fixture for them to doctor midway through the season so they can ensure the teams they want to play finals footy.dedja wrote:Wondering how this year has fared compared to past seasons with regards to the average winning margin … have seemingly had more thrashings than usual, but don’t have the stats to confirm.
With the stupid number teams, it’s impossible to have a fair fixture for all, but again, the current system is open to … let’s just say … favouritism for certain teams.
It will never, ever happen as the genie is out of the bottle, but there needs to be a reduction in teams, not further expansion to, say 16. Give the also-rans 3-5 years to sort themselves out or shut them down. The Weagles, although hopeless on the field, get diplomatic immunity as they still have 100k + members, sell out Optus Stadium, and make a motsa profit each year.
Dunno, I’m just an idiot.

Re: AFL Round 21
Was pretty similar around the covid era but apart from that and this year I don’t think I’ve seen such a clear gap between the top 9 sides and the bottom 9. Even the percentages show a clear gap of at least 16% which is absolutely staggering.
Can you bring a man to his feet when defeat is on repeat?

Re: AFL Round 21
One observation I made as I haven't really paid much attention or seen many day games at the place but Geez, Kardinia Park is a fair set up, looks sensational for what was once a suburban ground.

There's two gates at each end and one on the wing. Reckons there were line ups at every one of them.
If you want to go quickly, go alone.
If you want to go far, go together.

Difference with EPL is that they all play each other twice, once home, once away, a true level playing field.whufc wrote:I struggle to believe how easy the AFL has been able to push this concept through without huge uproar from the 'football world'.

Re: AFL Round 21
Thats what i mean and that is held as sacrilegious, if the league tried to 'make up' a fixture late in the year the country would be set on fire.Lightning McQueen wrote:Difference with EPL is that they all play each other twice, once home, once away, a true level playing field.whufc wrote:I struggle to believe how easy the AFL has been able to push this concept through without huge uproar from the 'football world'.
