After weeks of dodgy Herald Sun Photoshop images of his head on top of a Tigers jumper, look…it’s the real Ben Cousins in Richmond colours! Half Back Flanker has been enjoying this off-season by taking a two month blogging break - this is in accordance with the guidelines set by the AFL Players Asso ...

Warm Up Games For Cats And Hawks? (Welcome To Septocemia!)

113 days ago by halfbackflanker

Geelong fans had to wait 44 years before breaking through last season…now they can barely wait one full week for the next flag! Yes, we know - anything can happen in a game of football and nothing should ever be taken for granted. And we haven’t had any major shocks in this finals series thus far so ...

The Cats Of Australia Have Made Their Choice! (Media Street)

116 days ago by halfbackflanker

Geelong had nine All Australians last year but only seven this time around. Clearly the AFL have it in for them… A few Australian footy players managed to force their way into the All-Geelong team! Well, not exactly, but seven Geelong players were selected in the 2008 All Australian team, announced ...

Bounced Out In Straight Sets? (Welcome To Septocemia!)

120 days ago by halfbackflanker

The second week of the finals series is always a fascinating time. Every year we have two sides who were good enough to finish in the top four, but all of a sudden find themselves fighting for survival after missing out on a preliminary final berth and a nice week off. Some clubs are able to bounce ...

Welcome to Septocemia!

128 days ago by halfbackflanker

In 2007, the League decided to take all the excitement, atmosphere and passion of September and suck the life out of it by giving the AFL finals series a lame-arse name… we were given “Septopia”. And didn’t Septopia catch on… Geelong appeared to reach this mythical state of footballing awesomeness a ...

In The End, There Can Be Only One! (Media Street)

128 days ago by halfbackflanker

Another Rising Star for Fremantle…shame the club itself is more like a sinking ship! Palmer or Rioli? Rioli or Palmer?

Um, Vossy…Can We Have A Quick Chat? (Media Street)

130 days ago by halfbackflanker

The first Monday following the final round of the AFL season is renowned for some crazy antics from eight clubs worth of tired, emotional and thirsty footballers. Take Brendan Fevola, for example, who was spotted in Federation Square in Melbourne wearing a pink nighty, complete with sex toy penis da ...

It’s Buddy Mania! (The Lost Weekend)

131 days ago by halfbackflanker

Is somebody giving away free stuff? Icy cold cans of Coke, perhaps? Or maybe it’s a scrag-fight! Nope, Buddy has kicked the tonne!!! Round 22, 2008 brought up a few surprise results and some outstanding performances but it will always be remembered for being about Buddy…and not quite being about Fev ...
