cpaf posted:As a relatively recent Tasmanian migrant it's becoming increasingly apparent to me that not following a team or AFL in general is a borderline criminal offence. Those that will continue speaking to me after discovering this fact inform me that a good choice of team would be the Kangaroos. Is there an AFL equivalent of that footy banter app Richard Ayoade uses in the IT crowd, else, can someone provide me with a short list of important terms and phrases that will let me participate in communication in this region of Australia? Yeah the Roos are a good choice, they're on the way up and of the two teams who play in Tassie, they have a smaller and less violent/drunken/racist fanbase (in Tasmania, Hawks fans are barely better than Pies fans) and play in the better end of the state.

SeekOtherCandidate posted:...except in Tasmania, where he'll forever be loathed for handing the 18th license to West Sydney rather than Tasmania, economic sense be damned. I think Gil Mclachlan has his eye set on establishing a Tassie team as soon as possible. I vaguely remember him being asked about it and him giving a fairly positive but non committal answer. I dunno if that will be via a merge (hopefully not) or by further expansion when GWS and GC get more established. Testekill posted:I think 2023 or somewhere around then. And I would love to see GWS play at Whitten Oval just because it would be literally the most hostile crowd that I'll ever see. Or if the AFL buys it early, which sounds like it could happen sooner rather than later.

Ok so Mitch Clark (boo) and Nakie Cockatoo (yay) have been named for the cats as well as Sam Blease(!). When the gently caress did we dredge him up? How did I forget/miss that?

Shmoses posted:I had to do a marketing plan for the Doggies for a uni subject last year and I argued for that. I feel that the term 'Western' is too nebulous and is saturated now anyway (GWS, West Coast) Yeah, the big thing these days is that there isn't as much of a negative connotation to Footscray as a suburb like there used to be in the 80's and 90's. A return to Footscray would make sense but I honestly don't really care one way or another since we're still the same club. edit: IT BEGINS!

One of the commentators on 3AW bought up a good point, just whereabouts will Sam Mitchell rate on the Hawks greatest of all time? I can't remember another player that's been as consistent as him for as long.Volkerball posted:9 pointers? Super goal. It's pretty much the main thing that differs from the main season.

Btw volker the main reason its fake isnt because of the silly rules its because most of the time teams leave half their list out. A cursory examination of tonights teams shows me no Hodge, Lewis, or Pendlebury. I don't think I've seen Gibson either.
