Richmond legit are becoming the Springfield Power Plant softball team today… One guy is under arrest for burglaries, another dude in a car crash… Waiting for the brain tonic one to happen next.
EDIT: The player in the car accident had retired in 2021, but still.

When I was at the MCG yesterday I was wondering where “Big Sauce” Daniel Merritt was for Brisbane

Seeing Neile Daniher before today's match was really something. Sadly, even though he has made the Grim Reaper his bitch the last few years, it really looks like this Queen’s/King’s Birthday Clash will be his last. But he is still taking it with a grin.. What a champ.

After what looked some optimism of making the finals for the first time in the clubs history just two weeks ago, things have quickly turned to shit again for the GC Suns and now the Dew gone.. Heard a rumor the club has been talking to 3x premiership winning Damien Hardwick.. Dew’s sudden axing may give some truth to the rumors

Lance “Buddy” Franklin has announced his retirement effective immediately. He got an injury during this weekends game and his illustrious career is now over.
I have made it no secret he was my favorite player during the Hawthorn’s dominance years.
Best of luck to him in future endeavors

The AFL have got KISS as a Grand Final entertainment act..
Sorry for sounding cynical.. But this could be Meatloaf levels of a trainwreck. Cause a KISS performance in bright sunshine is not gonna look right. They really really need to get the sound right for this..
