  • AFL Top 100: Charlie Cameron reaches significant milestone

    1 month ago | theroar.com.au | Stephen Shortis

    It has taken much longer than anticipated, but Brisbane’s Charlie Cameron has made it into the AFL’s Top 100 goalkickers with his three goals against the Gold Coast Suns in the final game of Round 8 at the Gabba. After four games this season that had reaped only five majors, Cameron sat on 408 goals, three short of matching the total achieved by Melbourne legend Fred Fanning in 1947, and earning Cameron the distinction of being the only player to score 400+ goals and not make the list.

    From an individual player’s point of view, no doubt the highlight of the Anzac Round (Round 7) was the 300th game played by Luke Parker. Parker – like the other 300-game player this year, Jack Darling – moved to North Melbourne to achieve the total.

All games were decided by decent margins and – at the end of the round – the Top 14 teams could all be considered to be in the race to the finals. For me, however, this round was bookended by the two South Australian teams, and was all about goal-kicking highlights.

  • AFL Top 100: Cameron and Tex inch closer to exclusive club

    Round 3, which means every team has played somewhere between two and four games – courtesy of the opening round and the byes – is as confusing as a form guide as is the ladder, but some things are known. Hawthorn, Brisbane and Adelaide are the clubhouse leaders, having won all their games so far this season. Gold Coast has won both their games so far, but it is hard to get too excited just yet as their opponents so far have failed to win a game.

  • 'Beautiful man loved by all': AFL world in mourning as former Tiger, Magpie dead at 42

    The AFL world is mourning the death of former Richmond and Collingwood player Andrew Krakouer. Krakouer, who played 137 games at the Tigers between 2001 and 2013, suffered a suspected heart attack in Perth on Sunday. He was 42.
