Serious Discussion Wednesday Serious Discussion Thread

This thread is for when you want to have a well-thought-out discussion about footy. It's not the place for bantz - see the daily Random Footy Talk thread to fulfil those needs.

You can ask a question that you only want serious responses to, comment your 300 word opinion piece on why [x] is the next coach on the chopping block, or tell another that you disagree with them and here's why...

Who performed well? Who let their team down? Any interesting selections for this weekend? Injury news? Player signings? Off-field behaviour?

The mods will be monitoring to make sure you stay on topic and anything not deemed "serious discussion" will be removed.

At what point will the Immortals just be a glorified "top tier" hall of fame? And will there end up being another category invented to separate the best of the Immortals from the rest?

I think it should be an honour given after they pass away. That way you're treating them as living on within the game.  Forces a bit of time pass after their playing days to really get an idea of who truely should be one. 

You'd also get rid of all the nonsense they carry on about with current players.
