"I did say if he trimmed down. If he was proper fit and kept in shape I am confident he could handle cup level footy. I am not saying that will happen"
"If you're not first, you're last. We were never going to win a comp in 25. Are we on a better path than.the previous decade, I'd say it's early days but yes."
"Mate c'mon. He's 48 years old and 20kg over weight. Maybe Hindy could get a start?"
"Mate it's absolutely cheating. It's giving his team and unfair advantage as to make the ball difficult to grip giving the defence a huge advantage. It slows the passing game and also there a good chance the opposition knock on "

2 - I think the AFL system is no better than the McIntyre. Personally I'd rather see a top 6. I think the finals should be played at a Home City arrangement in 1st week only.
3 - Completely
4 - Ridiculous, another Buzz lack of brain-storming
5 - Yes, I hate golden point in it's current form. Scott Prince wants a penalty shoot out which is even worse
6 - Central Coast maybe, 2nd Brisbane team no. Does he remember the SQ Crushers, Brisbane won't support 2 teams? A Sunshine Coast team would be a better idea.
7 - Is he joking, why not just introduce ARL & Superleague again, or NSWRL and QRL comps as the top comps. All his idea will do is have one conference stronger than the other with most likely the out of Sydney teams being the strongest. With a NSW perspective it will make it cheaper for Sydney teams to operate as they won't have to fly around the place and pay accomodation.....
8 - A stand alone game for sure
9 - I like City v Country
10 - Has merit but you will probably get more people watching it on TV than going
Interesting post though mate!
I like City Vs Country more footy to watch.
Most of his points are dud.
Watching footy at the SCG??? no thanks. Every one keeps raving about how good Suncorp is and I agree it is a great place to watch footy were you are close to the action I was there for the world cup final. and I have been to the SCG and hate it.
The SFS is purpose built and it has its own tradition. Footy has been played there for a number of years (even before it became the SFS) and it is a sensational stadium for watching the football. I know Homebush holds way more people but the days of the SFS grand finals were fantastic.
During the season they announce the games 7-8 weeks in advance. Surely that is enough time to organise a trip to an away game.
Point 7 is ridiculous and point 10 would be good for traditional teams like Souths, Roosters, and Tigers but watching footy on an oval game is not ideal.
I believe Origin should be a stand alone event on a weekend. It will only lengthen the season by 3 weeks. If they want some extra games on the weekend then have an under 20's State of Origin and perhaps a NSW 2nds side vs QLD 2nds side. This would give those players on the fringe of selection an opportunity to show they can step up to the next level. It can also mean the scrapping of city vs country.
2 - The McIntyre system works fine why change it the only problem is the grounds and that not even a big one I though this year they had it all right it was just such a close competion it could have gone anyways as it did.
7 - Wouldn't be the same and just not as much competition for teams like Melbourne and teams like Canberra would strugle big time.
9 - The NSW origin people use it to pick the team why scrap it...
id also like to see bonus points come into play such as if you score more than 6 tries you get a bonus point or aslo if you keep the opposition tryless you get a bonus point
id also like to see field goal increased to 2 points as it is is exciting to watch
also 40/20 is great so we should ibntroduce 30/30, 50/10
your thoughts...
