The AFL's Attacking Revolution - Neds Blog We haven’t even played Round 1 yet but footy looks different through five official games.  I found the game itself last year to be a bit on the drab side, generally down on scoring outside of the Bull...

Gregg Swann is the new Allen Dulles.

The AFL has astroturfed an attacking footy revolution from their office and the teams have fallen into line.

Comply or get left behind.

Viva la revolucion, brother.

2025 - QLD Game Postponed due to Cyclone Alfred

Enjoyed watching Carlton miss their first set shot on goal for season 2026.
Amongst all the chaos in the world, it's comforting to know there are still these simple joys in life.

One Question for Each AFL Opening Round Game - Neds Blog Footy is back! And in classic AFL fashion, it’s starting with a whimper.   We have a little over half a round, four fifths of which will be played in the northern states to “take advantage” of the NRL...

Tomorrow night, finally, the footy is back.

In classic AFL fashion, it's starting bizarrely and with a whimper, but it is back.

Here's one question to keep in mind for each of the games.

Scrapping Opening Round after once-in-50-years weather event would be short-sighted The critics are coming fast and loud.

Unpopular opinion. I'm a big fan of #OpeningRound

We need to put our little tribal rivalries aside (especially the rapacious VFL hordes) and back the future of the game in QLD/NSW.

Friday Night Footy Watchability Index For some reason, we’re back. Starting with half a round in the northern states is definitionally shooting for the middle as far as possible AFL starting points. You’re hoping that you start the season...

The season was meant to start tonight but there's a cyclone so it isn't.

For some reason the #AFL is still rolling on with #OpeningRound, so I'm rolling on with the Watchability Index.

Who are you excited to watch in prime time this year?

Still slivers of availability remaining.

Plush and discreet Mascot incall apartment ✨️

So excited for the next few days- femdom and footy 😆

All teams or no teams.
Location doesn’t matter.

No viewers.
Switch off your television or streaming.

#OpeningRound #AFL

People w teams in OR are making weekends of it as cleverly & purposefully the AFL cant do it without the Victorian public holiday to get people to attend

The rest of us have to eat into their televised profits

Your behaviour will make them change. Dont watch. Dont engage on socials

#openinground

I’m only tweeting about this twice

If you despise the AFL opening round as much as me with only 8 teams- not for the fact it’s all North Australia

You need to show them by not tuning in. The numbers have to be down or they will continue on their merry way

Make them lose money
