  • The Media's Impact on Play in the Australian Football League
    PHYSICAL CULTURE AND SPORT. STUDIES AND RESEARCH DOI: 10.2478/pcssr-2018-0001 Managed Play: The Media’s Impact on Play in the Australian Football League Authors’ contribution: Samuel Keith Duncan A) conception and design of the study B) acquisition of data Holmesglen Institute, Australia, Victoria C) analysis and interpretation of data D) manuscript preparation E) obtaining funding ABSTRACT No industry has influenced the transformation of the Australian Football League (AFL) into a professional, commercial business more than the media. Today, the AFL players are paid more than ever and are used as marketing tools to promote and sell the game, often to new fans in new markets of Australia – namely New South Wales and Queensland - who haven’t traditionally played Australian Football, preferring the rugby codes instead. But perhaps the biggest change in the AFL is that the play element is now used as function of business. Put simply, winning leads to more money. As such, the play element is now manipulated more than ever. The game has more coaches implementing more tactics, strategies, game plans and set plays than ever before. These changes can be linked back to the media’s influence on the game. This paper utilises the combined observations and theories of Johan Huizinga and Pierre Bourdieu to create a theoretical lens through which we can understand the media’s growing influence in sport and its impact on play’s transformation. The theory will then be expounded through an extensive analysis of the media’s influence in the AFL, particularly its play element. This analysis will be supported with insights and views from AFL fans, members, commentators and theorists.

  • Nick Dal Santo – AFL Footballer
    Nick Dal Santo – AFL footballer Nicholas Peter Dal Santo1 (born 1984) is a great great great grandchild of Patrick Carrucan and Mary O'Brien and is well known as one of the star players, first for the St. Kida Football Club (2002-2013) and later for the North Melbourne Football Club (2014-2016) in the Australian Football League. His vital stats read impressively - height 186cm, weight 86 kg, 322 games played in his 15 seasons of AFL football (2002-2016), 156 goals kicked. Nick was drafted by St Kilda as draft pick 13 in the 2001 AFL Draft and made his debut for them in 2002 as an 18 year old against the Geelong Football Club. In what was an excellent start to his elite football career, he played 18 matches in that first year. He came of age as a footballer during the 2004 season, playing every match and kicking 11 goals in a St Kilda side that made a Preliminary Final. In 2005 he took his game to a new level, racking up over 500 disposals for the year and finishing a close third in the 2005 Brownlow Medal, behind eventual winner Ben Cousins. He was recognised for his excellent season with selection in the 2005 All-Australian Team as a midfield player, his first career All-Australian Team award. Former Essendon Football Club coach Kevin Sheedy, during the 2005 season, likened Nick to triple-Brownlow Medallist Ian Stewart for his exceptional skill and courage. In that same year, former Hawthorn champion Gary Ayres said this of Nick in an interview: "He's got a high skill level on both sides of his body.
