An AFL player in the spotlight after he was slapped with a four-match suspension for a homophobic slur has been in South Australia amid the fallout.
An AFL player in the spotlight after he was slapped with a four-match suspension for a homophobic slur has been in South Australia amid the fallout.
A blistering performance from Zak Butters helped spare Port Adelaide’s blushes against the Eagles, but there’s concerns over the other superstar at the Power.
A West Coast player has admitted to using a “highly offensive slur” with the AFL on Sunday handing down a significant suspension.
The Giants cruised to victory against the lowly Eagles, but one of their biggest stars is set to face some MRO trouble for a whack on Harley Reid. Watch the incident here.
As devastating as it was to see West Coast co-captain Oscar Allen carried from the ground by trainers late in the last quarter, it’s a solemn reminder of the Eagles’ upper hand in contract talks.
Michael Voss could be without both Harry McKay and Charlie Curnow, with the former struggling with his knee and the latter injuring his calf against the Eagles. Plus, more on Oscar Allen.
They got the four points, but that was about the only positive Michael Voss and the Blues were able to take out of their win over the Eagles, with yet another second-half fade out.
It was the breakout game six years in the making. But after almost being traded, Harry Edwards is finally ready to step out of the shadows of some West Coast heroes.
For North, it was the win they had to have. For the Eagles, it was the one that got away. But for the neutrals, it was an unmemorable day to kickstart North’s WA venture.
Geelong’s trip to Perth was meant to be the start of a rails run in the back-half of the season – but Harley Reid and the young Eagles made it anything but. And it might be a blessing in disguise.
A host of former teammates, AFL players, family and friends have come together to celebrate the life of Adam Selwood after his death at the age of 41.
Adelaide may have moved into the top four after a big win over West Coast, but coach Matthew Nicks is focused on reaching the level of the AFL’s No. 1 side.
The deaths of Adam and Troy Selwood have sparked calls for the AFL to hold a mental health round every year, but there are better ways we can try and reduce the act of suicide.
An AFL premiership winner and close friend of the Selwood family has opened up on his heartbreaking chat with Cats champion Joel.
