That was an action packed last quarter. And good one cowboys!!!

Brisbane won and lost in one night. I kept flicking between the games. How emotional!!!

Oh, crap! People will stop thinking of me as a lefty metrosexual freak if I keep talking about footy. Back to normal soon guys!

BTW did you guys hear about the bloke who put down $50 on the premiership hat-trick for the Lions? Evidently the TAB is down $2 Mill on that one. If he'd gone for 4, he'd have been in for $20 Mill I heard? Aint life grand!

got my G F ticket today and I am off to see the Power take on the might of the Lions 🙂
Go the Power

Hold on, hold on. You are forgetting you are getting there for the 4th time because all the salary cap concessions the AFL has made for you.

Elaborate on this, I'm interested to know more.

Bugged Again ·

Or the fact that we have a great coach and a well built team

Resto64 ·

I thinks its gonna be a cracker of a game and may the best team win as long as they aint a vic YER

salary cap????

Since when did they matter?

If you could BUY a team like that Eddie 'miwwionaire' Maguire would have bought one whatever the salary cap...

Can you say 'Sponsor jobs' or 'Kiddies scholarships' or 'Collage basketball'


AFL(n) A game where everyone beats Victoria! lmao :vader

kkk :P:P:P:P:P:P

Evidently the players aren't paid any more than in Southern Clubs, but I haven't looked at the books. Could that be sour grapes from Victoria? Oh well, so much for good sportsmanship!

For me the only advantage to Brisbane is to be able to practice longer because of our weather up here. They also don't have such whingey fans (lvqtm - laugh very quietly to myself).

vwombat ·

Sorry - that was me logged in under the Wife's name. For all those victorians with a bone to pick!

buzzbug ·

hey wombat,
thats the reason why they have the final in vic! its the only way they will every see it.


GO THE LIONS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

karmannghia60 ·

Hmmm, the fact the half of the Lions are from the old Fitzroy team doesn't matter too? :kiss

Basically Brisbane and Perth where given a higher salary cap than the Vic teams to make up for the diatnce issues they dealt with to get players. It lets Brisbane and Perth's total club salary add up to more than the Victorian's..

From last years Audit Brisbane were not the highest paying club so I am guessing they are below the Vic cap anyway .....

The players love to play for a winning team. I'm guessing that can be better than the $.

thanks brad
