    Footy, eh? - AFL Round Twenty Three 2025

    And after all that, there was one round left. AFLW opening weekend was sick, don't say slurs, Ryan Lester is Harris Andrews' favourite player, and things are looking a bit Dockery.

    Messiah Wanganeen-Milera - AFL Round Twenty 2025

    Whatever they're offering Wanganeen-Milera, double it; Essendon are hell bent on breaking the debutants record; most of the weekend was record-setting beltings, and the finals race is now (truly) down to nine.

    Children of Men (who played for the right club) - AFL Round Nineteen 2025

    We enjoyed another... well at least an okay level of football on the field, but endured another grim week off of it. The top eight is getting more interesting, Flagmantle might be back, and our favourite defender wins the ten votes this week. Alastair puts together a passionate defense of and amendments to the Father-Son Rule, and how we can justify keeping it in the league.
