So much of last year’s football palace intrigue centred on just how far the AFL would go to change the rules of the game in response to some meta-elements of the game it found unsatisfactory.
It’s been a grim five years for Carlton, with an average final ladder position of 16th since 2014. Ouch.
Welcome back to another year of AFL season previews here at The Roar.
Numbers! Football! It’s time for our annual dispassionate look at some of the numbers behind the numbers in the AFL and see whether we can jag a bit of signal amidst the noise.
A poster from No.1 draft pick Nina Morrison has delivered a win for the Geelong Cats in their first ever AFLW match, defeating the Collingwood Magpies in front of 18429 people at GMHBA Stadium on Saturday night.
It’s easy to forget sometimes that just 24 months ago there had never been an AFLW match played and that for most Australians women’s football was barely on the radar.
Season three of AFLW commences this weekend, with an opening round fixture between the Geelong Cats and Collingwood.
In March 2014, after coming closer than any AFL coach has before to delivering a purple premiership to the Fremantle faithful but still falling short at the final hurdle, Ross Lyon put forward a simple and measurable goal for his team in the approaching season.
The past 18 months have been challenging for a thinking fan, with the repeated administrative malfeasance of AFL HQ. This year, we cast all of that aside, and go back to what makes Australian rules football the best sport in the world.

It’s almost ten years ago now that, in anticipation of the Gold Coast Suns and GWS Giants joining the competition, the AFL surveyed fans on a number of expansion related issues, including the size of the finals series.

The sun has risen on the year 2019 for the first time, so let’s take a look at some of the big questions that will be answered in the new AFL season.
It seems that with each passing year the Australian public becomes more and more invested in women’s sport.
For much of the 2018, the AFL season looked to be a one-horse race. But a finals series for the ages ensured football fans around the country got more than their fair share of drama and entertainment.
It’s telling of the unwatchability of the 2018’s AFLX competitions that despite having unveiled two Brownlow Medallists, a three-time Coleman Medallist and a three-time All Australian small forward, the AFL has received an almost universally negative response to news of their revamped AFLX 2019 competition.
2019 AFL lists are all but finalised following the completion of the draft, allowing us to run the numbers and look at which sides have moved up or down the age and experience ladders.
The 2018 AFL Draft has come to a close and playing lists are now all but finalised for the eighteen AFL clubs.
Four delisted AFL players have found lifelines at new clubs via the 2018 AFL Rookie Draft which was conducted on Friday a few hours after the national draft concluded.
Live trading and crafty bidding were the order of the day as the remainder of the 2018 AFL Draft unfolded on Friday at Marvel Stadium.
