The AFL starts again tonight and I know there are some posters on here that like their Aussie Rules (and some posters who don't). I thought we may as well have another thread about it as I'm sure the rivalry will begin again between supporter groups.

Anyone entered the AFL, Sportsbet or Herald Sun free tipping competitions? Do you have a league? Anyone interested in participating in a SAU one?

Anyone entered a Dream Team or Super Coach squad? Again these are free competitions with A new Toyota FJ Cruiser as 1st prize for Dream Team and $50,000 1st prize for Super Coach.

I'm going to the Crows v Hawks on Saturday night. Should be a good game although I'm not confident that the Crows will win.

I'll be there on Saturday night, with our regular crew in the members. I've tipped us but not with a huge amount of confidence . Hodge is carrying that achilles injury so that could play into our hands.

We need to match them in the middle and contain Buddy. Davis, assuming he gets the job, could be in for a big night!

As for Port, a flogging could be on the cards. Pies in fine form, at home, Port missing some quality.

Well, I'm 4 from 5 so far, bloody Cats ruined any chance of 8.

Seems I was right with the Port game, not that it was hard to predict. Not good to see Schultz do his knee, how bad is it, I've not heard? ACL?

Davis needed a solid performance and he delivered! Buddy kicked 2 6, I remember him kicking 1 6 against Bock and they raved about Bocky shutting him down. What Davis lacks in pace he makes up for in every other area.

Tambling, I wasn't sold on him until tonight, watching him from the sidelines I'm now a believer! We were sitting right in front of where he hit Roughy... awesome stuff! And his fluke soccer to hit a Target, freakish.

It's only round one and we got more than a fair run with the ump's for a change, but I like what I'm seeing. Porps shoulder was the lowlight.

  • 3 weeks later...

LOL, I was expecting to be flogged but hoped we'd only get done by a couple!!

Who could've predicted an 11 goal turn-around??

We gave them a full quarter head start then brought out the baseball bats and mugged them :domokun:

Port = 17

Crows = 13

Shame they'll finish above us on the ladder but nothing more satisfying than a Showdown XXX win :cheers:

True Dave.....if only we could bottle whatever they're on whenever they face the Crows then give them a drink of that stuff at the start of every other game, we'd be on our way to another flag

That aint gonna happen anytime soon me thinks :/

I like your theory but the boys looked pretty spent after that Showdown and history has proven that those games take so much out of you for the following week.

With our form leading up to the Showdown, I'm thinking GCS may have notched up next weeks game a very possible win :/

Port should hammer them. Along with what you say though Pete, it'd definitely help having a stack of players who missed the showdown to get a run this weekend.

having a bit of a read though the shit storm of comments on a news.com.au article about Neil Craig, and supporters having a go at him for his coaching etc. One loss and he gets hammered with heavy criticism all over the place...

Not slagging off any AFC supporters on the forum here; a usual Monday after a crows loss, it's always Craigy or the umpires copping a rubbishing by the supporters in my office. How about some of their useless muppet out of form players?

    • Before I commit to it as I already have the wastegate off the car, would you change it to the 9psi spring instead of the 12, or whack it back on now and try your suggestion?
    • Sounds good Hmm suppose the main thing is, how much do you care about this car? The filler doesn't make for a very good water barrier lol. If there was a tiny little bit of rust forming now, that in 3 to 5 years time becomes obvious under the paint (starts to bubble up), would it bother you? 
    • I already have the ability to datalog the voltage... what I can't do is correlate it to what the gauge is showing when I'm looking at the data at a later date. Or something like this. Except getting the oil to 125C+ involves me going 200+kmh at the track so you can imagine this is a little tricky unless I do something like note what the voltage is when I am at the top of 5th gear so I have a point to reference on. Drove car today. O2 still reading richer because hopefully not a leak instead of massive restriction I've introduced. Car really doesn't sound like a LS. It's quite strange. Pulled a bit of fuel out up top. This does potentially explain why my spark plugs looked like the car was running pretty over-rich. If I was tuning it to a ~12.7 which in reality was far richer than that in the past. It will be handy to have the dyno WB to compare my WB to to compare notes that's for sure. At this point I'm happy to just sit in the passenger seat and tune the thing given I've got about 7 million hours on the platform lol.
    • Yeah I understand you have to pay for an updated map or subscription service or something. But I can't even find a current map for Australia. My map is dated 2017, but didn't this car version still sell in Australia until 2021?   Also, just as an aside, the navigation system warns you of traffic incidences ahead.....why would they include that on a map they knew is not receiving live information. I am forever going to be warned of an incident that probably existed for 30 minutes 8 years ago.
