Looks like the Mods have moved the Non-Collingwood game threads to Nick's Other AFL - http://www.magpies.net/nick/bb/viewforum.php?f=37

The Laugh at Carlscum thread is there as well.

It was much better having the non pies games thread in the general discussion section.

General discussion is the first place people go for footy related matter most look here. Game day should be here and shifted the day after but the Laught at Carlton thread should be here permanently.

Agreed, Mossi...................I can't see why it has been changed after so many years. Change it back, mods.

I think there was a reason for the move, but I can't remember it right now. I know a low of "Not Collingwood; Who gives a shit" comments popped up in non Collingwood team discussion.

Maybe keep the 'Dal Santo's wang" type stories in the other section but put game threads in here then move them after. Not sure, but having too many Carlton/Malthouse/Daisy bad breakup threads shitting up general is pretty annoying.

My 2 cents worth. I would get rid of the 'Players Forum' at the top of the 'General Discussion' page and replace it with a link to 'Nick's Other AFL' forum. That 'Players Forum' has been idling there for a few years now with very little if any discussion at all. You could probably link back to the 'GD' on the 'Nick's Other AFL' page to keep all AFL and Collingwood related stuff within close reach.

Point missed.

We moved other AFL topics out of the top section of the index/GD because it didn't qualify under Collingwood Forums.

If you want the Player Forums gone, that's a different matter and your (FGTC) input and further discussion is appreciated and will be considered.
Donny.

It's a game. Enjoy it. :D

Donny, it's pretty simple. Just call it Football Forums.
