@rohan_connolly Yes. It's the repurposed injection room.

Of course ... if you try to apply for the 20% Victorian vehicle registration rebate available from today, you will crash the Services Victoria website!

Got him! Yes, #pissoffyou'reout

@JeffWhite34 No such thing as 'centre bounce' any more. And it's a contest, not an art.

@Thomo_Grant Both teams roll the dice, and bet on winning more ball than the opposition, and scoring more efficiently when they do. It works most of the time. Supporters prefer to see their team having a go, rather than 100% dour boring defence.

[Darryl Berg @ossienet]

@Thomo_Grant Absence of Maynard a factor there. Smaller 'defenders' don't actually defend : Quaynor, JDaicos, Houston, Perryman are all attack.

AFL establishes subcommittee to ensure the 2026 fixture is more equitable.

Fox Footy have really done their research tonight. Never realised!

[Darryl Berg @ossienet]

@Thomo_Grant Prior opportunity does not require interpretation. Is the player tackled? IIs the ball in possession? How long? It's the "genuine attempt" part which is problematic. Get rid of that part.

[Darryl Berg @ossienet]

@Thomo_Grant Agree, hardest game in the world to umpire and getting worse. But what's the answer? Fewer umpires on field? Remove interpretations, and make rules more clear-cut? Full-time professional umps with performance pay?

#AFLBluesCats is a great game because one of them is gonna lose :D

Ironic that Sydney never wear black shorts for home games & Collingwood have to wear white shorts in Sydney. But today Sydney wear BLACK shorts playing away.

@CPCGAMINGDEMOS @IncrediblyBozza It's a simple byproduct of increasing the number of teams and games, which increases broadcasting / advertising revenue. Also dilutes product quality.

[Darryl Berg @ossienet]

@CPCGAMINGDEMOS @IncrediblyBozza Bums on seats don't matter any more. Peanuts compared with advertising revenue / TV rights. Perception.

Trivia question. Prior to defeating WCE and North in 2025, what were Carlton's two most recent wins?

[Darryl Berg @ossienet]

@MartinVicPark Not in Adelaide

Is the (non-SA) footy world really so enamoured with Gather Round? Bombarded with spin from AFL media clowns enjoying an annual junket. What about the other 80% of footy fans?
