Yes I did and you’re correct however there’s been a general uptrend that is making houses extremely expensive. I’d rather move to outer Melbourne or Newie or the Gong in Sydney rather than anywhere near Hobart

Hewett did almost exactly the same action and copped a fine, it reeks of double standards

860k for houses and 800k for apartments, it is better for houses but not for apartments in Sydney or Melbourne

I am mostly in favour of the mid season trade period but clubs need to be protected from themselves, not trading too much for too little

The housing isn’t so cheap anymore.

There are a heap of sides in the states that are horrifically run, the Carolina panthers, the Las Vegas raiders, the Denver broncos, the Cleveland browns are all awfully run

They deliberately lost him so they could get more picks. If they held onto Ben McKay the Roos would probably be a middle six team this year

Found something interesting about the two heads the other day; did you know they only have 53.1% of their state graduate year 12

It explains a big part of it, you also need to consider who made a preliminary final not just the grand final.

Not our fault that Essendon and Carlton stepped onto enormous land mines with their supplements saga and salary cap respectively. They wouldn’t have had anywhere near as much. Additionally, neither GWS or Gold Coast or even Fremantle have been anywhere close to being successful because of their own ineptitude.

I don’t know about that. There’s been plenty of turn over at the top of the league so equalisation is actually working it’s just taking longer than they were expecting

I think the afl is aiming to be more and more alike the nfl not soccer. We still have a draft, we still have a salary cap, and I think if we do introduce a trade period the afl needs to revise the rules on academies.

Look kicking is an action that needs to be discouraged particularly if you’re wearing metal studs. The suspension that is questionable is Redmans, hopefully the bomber will appeal it

I don’t mind the idea of a mid season trade period, but I think there need to be some conditions. The first would be players have to earn over the median afl salary so they can move without too much inconvenience on their part, the second would be no trades without the players consent which is already a rule but I get the feeling that clubs would like to be able to trade players without their consent, finally no trading multiple first round picks for one player to stop clubs wrecking themselves

The ridiculous suspension came later in the game when Mason Redman got done in for intentional high contact. In circumstances that were eerily similar to George Hewetts last week he copped a suspension whereas Hewett only copped a fine. I think Michael Christian needs to go he’s biased and there’s a two tiered justice system in the afl, he needs to set a precedent and stick to it.

I can see that the Owen Wilson memes have already started on Facebook

Yeah that’s fair but it feels like he just makes it harder for himself for no reason haha

Except it’s a fact not a common talking point. I understand what you mean by a bounce of the ball but Ross has never moderated his behaviour to suit the modern sensibilities of afl

I think it remains to be seen I also think the bulldogs do have an issue where they need to balance a lot of egos in the change rooms

I’m not blaming him but that St Kilda side was the best side they ever had, and he still couldn’t close the deal

Freo would have made the finals but they would not have won the flag. He struggles at taking that extra step from good to great.
