Replay A Set the default text size A Set large text size
There are always reports during the pre-season in the AFL about a certain player who is ready for a breakout or playing a revamped role.
Everyone wants to nail predictions about a player and to make it easy, I will be playing the AFL stock market.
For each of the 18 AFL sides, I will be buying, holding and selling stocks, attempting to predict the future.

It s a threat from the pen of a Premier in charge of a state that no longer has anything to lose, and a scenario the AFL surely doesn t want to see happen.

Washington Post s national technology reporter Craig Timberg, who has covered the conspiracies spouted by QAnon followers, said that it was difficult to pin down exactly what QAnon was. Our copy editors [at the Post] are questioning whether we should call it a conspiracy theory or an extremist ideology , Timberg told Fresh Air, NPR reported. Some researchers think it s a cult. Some think it s an alternative reality game.
