Re: Finals straw for fed-up fans

The only thing I dislike about the AFL system is the '4th to 5th dropoff.' What I mean by that is team 4 is playing team 1 for the right to have a week off and potentially host a preliminary final, which is massive. Even if team 4 loses, they will host a week 2 semi-final. Pretty good outcome for co...

Re: Finals straw for fed-up fans

I'm a fan of the AFL format. Makes for better games. 1 v 8 and 2 v 7 are usually mismatches. Also the way it is at the moment is open to tampering (e.g. The storm could have thrown the game on the weekend to knock the Warriors out if they perceived them as a major threat). When is the last time we ...

Re: Canberra Raiders review

Told them (in less than 200 characters) that the Raiders appear as the most amateur team of the NRL - in everything they do.

Whether that is true or not we cannot tell as fans, but from the exterior that is sure as hell how it looks.

Re: What needs to happen to avoid the dreaded spoon?

The only way we can get the spoon is if we lose to Bulldogs by 61 points or more, or the Titans/Eels draw as far as I know. I think the situation is obviously if there is a Titans/Eels draw, or that the Dogs beat us by 60 more than the Eels beat the Titans (i.e if Eels win by 10, Dogs would need to...
