@AFL_FANTASIA @cleary_mitch @7NewsMelbourne No I don't. Equality is unrealistic and achieves nothing. Equity should be the goal.

Clubs left a meeting with the AFL today fully expecting the League to soon introduce an extra list spot dedicated for Indigenous players.
In what form is still TBC - likely scenario discussed is essentially a third Cat B rookie spot clubs can use if they choose

@TimmySquire @cleary_mitch @7NewsMelbourne It’s the opinion that why should anyone be given opportunities that others can’t have? Do you not want equality?
English

@AFL_FANTASIA @cleary_mitch @7NewsMelbourne It is exactly that. You wouldnt be saying a thing if it was a spot dedicated to a Scottish Pig Farmer.
English

@TimmySquire @cleary_mitch @7NewsMelbourne And it’s not a racist point of view just incase you try out that label on. There is quite literally nothing stopping anyone who is good enough to make the AFL. It’s that simple.
English

@TimmySquire @cleary_mitch @7NewsMelbourne Gee I dunno, because there literally has never been a spot on an AFL Club playing list designated for a certain race until now? 🤣🤣🤣
English

@TimmySquire @cleary_mitch @7NewsMelbourne You’ve decided to focus on the ‘star’ word as opposed to the actual point. The point being, who cares, the Irishman and American have been scouted and have made it without a designated spot. Why can’t the indigenous player as well?
English

@AFL_FANTASIA @cleary_mitch @7NewsMelbourne A star wouldnt require a Cat B spot. Picture this, theres a system where 2 Cat B spots are available and an Irishmen or an American lands that spot. And theres no outrage.. Why is that?
English

@TimmySquire @cleary_mitch @7NewsMelbourne Picture this, you’ve already used your 2 Cat B spots. This kid comes along, absolute star, can’t put him in the new third spot because he’s isn’t indigenous. If you’re good enough you’ll make it regardless of your bloodline. Don’t need certain spots reserved.

We know what sport he's going pro in lol

DPP Watchlist after Round 7 @KeeperAFL 🔄🚨
Nothing overly exciting and a few of these players are very in-and-out of the side, so the games limit will be a stretch
But, still a few to keep an eye on 👀

@FOXFOOTY Rough upbringing, indigenous.

@westernbulldogs The oldest looking bloke in the photo still being on an AFL list is crazy stuff

@AFLFantasyFiend The hypocrisy within the AFL Twitter community the last 7 days has been unbelievable
English

Over the last week we've seen some true colours being shown!
Those who willing joined conjecture, assumptions, unfounded speculation & outright spinning BS for the sake of engagement.
Then there were those who didn't get suckered into the BS.
Proud to be the latter!

@Scobey__ @Matt_English8 In saying that, one has a platform for it and a specific page to give news. The other is a ‘nobody’. Can see why people are thinking it’s copied

My comment was generalised
English

Unless the "source" of this knows Tom / players personally then I have no idea how anyone would know if a player isn't going to play, considering the team hasn't had main training yet.
It would provide a handy loop, but I have extreme doubts 🤨

❌ Tom Blamires ❌ Popular North Melbourne cashcow 💰🐮 rookie Tom Blamires is rumoured to be managed/dropped this round 👀 Will this change your round 7 trade plans? 🤔 #aflsc360 #supercoach @AFL

@Matt_English8 @Scobey__ It’s happening. Instead of saying thank you for the heads up people decide to go for personal gain with clicks and comments. The world we live it

@Jedd112 @fromthe_topdeck Glad someone round here got a brain

If only 24 was divisible by 2. Alas!
(fuck this fucking league fuck)

AFL have discussed clubs buying home games from each other to reach 24 games in the 2028 fixture, per Sam Edmund. @aflratings
English

@kentank87 @7AFL Each club hosts one.
1 per round for 18 weeks 🤝
English

@7AFL I like the idea of clubs owning games to promote metal health rather than a single round. Mental health is serious and should be discussed often. One round of the year and then forgetting about it, doesn't sit right with me. Multiple games throughout the year seems better.
English

"Every time you dedicate a round, does that dilute some of the other rounds that we've got as well?"
"Some of the games that are owned by clubs, rather than the AFL, are done really well ... I think Spud's Game can be [like King's Birthday] for St Kilda."

Tom Morris@tommorris32
Amid a push for a Mental Health Round from key players, the league is preferring to focus on specific causes such as Spud's Game to make an impact. The AFL acknowledges the problem and even hosted a wide-ranging forum in Gather Round, but is tackling it differently. @7AFL @1116sen

@BailsDT @HatChatAFL Jaques TOG was meh and Buss in doesn’t seem it’s going to change for him. Grlj is a hold for me this week to see what he can do without Sam Banks. Jagga last on the trade outs
English

@HatChatAFL Not sure if spoken about earlier, but how do we rank Jaques, Grlj and Jagga as trade outs?
