Giants don’t play in front of crowds either. Hasn’t seemed to stop them.

What went wrong for AFL's 2023 also-rans?

How could you not? Under the radar as one of the form sides coming in, finals experience, how can no one have tipped them? Having said that I’m tipping Carlton 😂

So then you’re changing more than one result. What of North don’t have the interchange infringement v Sydney then Sydney lose that game.

Except you reverse that result and Adelaide finish on 48pts and Sydney finish on 46

The Roar's AFL expert tips and predictions Round 24: How will the Bulldogs let their fans down this week?

Pies are struggling? Essendon fell over the line against 17th and 18th and then lost by 21 goals.

The Roar's AFL expert tips and predictions Round 24: How will the Bulldogs let their fans down this week?

If the bulldogs win on Saturday it is because Geelong have rested half their team. If your season comes down to falling into the 8 depending on other results then you’re not good enough to be there. The fact the bulldogs lost to 16th and 18th in the last 2 weeks says they shouldn’t be there.

In the AFL Executive’s mind, we all do Don.

They’re already looking to fill in time for next weekend for the ridiculous pre finals bye.

It’s a secret formula. So that they, and only they, can determine the outcome. Farcical.

I told you we’d finish your season 😂

Footy Fix: Sure, they're fifth... but like it or not, the Blues are officially the best team in it

Kinda defeats the purpose of spending all that money then.

Six Points: The ARC got Petracca 'touched' call spot on, and the Matildas lesson the AFL must learn

As in the mark that was over the line?

Even if he thought it was in, he didn’t control it! Therefore a throw in!

I have had this chat with others before. Everything you mentioned plus they play with 2 less players. Absolutely absurd from the AFL. There’s no shame playing on suburban grounds. It’s even more embarrassing a look getting 1000 ppl into a 50,000 seat stadium.

TOM MORRIS: The AFL's hierarchy is in shambles - and it's nothing less than a failure of governance

Totally agree Tom. If it had still be say 8 teams, the product would have been much better now. Take the WBBL for instance, it has improved out of sight in the short time it has been in existence.

If hanging his hat on the AFLW is all he has then it’s a glaring failure. Starting the competition is a huge win but these poor women haven’t had the same start date 2 years running. Even until recently they didn’t know when the next season was starting. Absolute amateur hour!

You should be, your season ends in Tassie next week 😱

Footy Fix: If you're not terrified about your team facing the Hawks yet... you should be

Probably because it resulted in a Collingwood loss 😂

They've faded too far in 2023 - where to now for Geelong?

Except it doesn’t really work that way

Is it the beginning of the end for the AFL Draft?

You’re kidding right?

Rankine, Dawson, Horne-Francis, it’s only an issue for the non traditional footy states normally and even that’s slowly fading.

Sydney can now attract interstate free agents as can Brisbane.

The hardest hitting factor now is small clubs v big clubs. No one wants to go to a North or St Kilda.

How about we at least wait until they miss the finals for more than one season then make the call. Being a hawks fan, I’d love for them to fall off a cliff but geez, the more everyone calls it, the better they go.

Having said that, the loss of Selwood seems to be seismic in scale. His will to pick up his team and carry them with him when all seemed lost was unreal.

Let’s at least wait until a September without the cats to make a call on time of death.

That stumping didn’t change anything. England just started playing Bazball on each balls merit instead of playing kamikaze style. If they’d have done that from the start, England win 5 zip

Aussies Bazballed again as Root, Bairstow and Crawley power England towards series-levelling win

No I still think he’d be more value at this age.
