Is Richmond or Essendon, Melbourne currently the worst team in the AFL?

[Mcchawk]

I'd say Richmond closely followed by Essendon then Melbourne

[Andrew Mc]

Essendon aren't even close to the other rabble you've mentioned.

[Kooley]

I'd say Richmond closely followed by Essendon then Melbourneessendon>hawthorn

[mbosca]

quite funny really, how the hawks are now treating their two wins to the season. It is quite sad, however i feel for them seeing they havent had this much success in years. I cant wait for the end of the year when the bombers are miles ahead of the hawks and they blame it on their list being too young. By the way the next four weeks we play the pies, richmond, hawthorn and carlton.

Don't agree. Tiges obviously have 16th locked-in. But I think the Dees are probably next, then Dons. :)

No burleigh required, or line or bait ;)

[Longy413]

Essendon aren't playing like a bottom four side.

Essendon are a rabble. They won't win any of those games and will be bottom in 4 weeks time.

[Longy413]

Essendon are a rabble.

Well there you go, we've heard it from an expert.

You obviously did not see Essendon play yesterday.They gave it a good crack, and rather than fading in the second half as a poor team would, they fought hard without their best forward too.
The Bombers may not be the team they were a few years ago, but they are building a team which will be very strong and back to their normal strong self before too long.
How anyone after just 3 rounds could be talking about best/worst teams is beyond me. Nothing but hyperbole at this stage of the season to be doing this. At least wait until more than half a season has passed before considering posing such a question.

[The Shark]

Out of those 3, Richmond.

Out of the whole 16, Carlton.

[Hawkk]

Compared to Hawthorn, who play Carlton, Essendon, North and Brisbane...all winnable games!

[local]

The difference between Melbourne and essendon is that melbourne seem to be playing their worse football now, their best is yet to come. essendon seems to be playing their best now.
It's going to be a battle between essendon and richmond for the spoon.

[Politik_Pie]

Out of those 3, Richmond.

Out of the whole 16, Carlton.

Couldnt have said it better myself

[X_box_X]

Yeah, that's right - the Bulldogs can't be that good, so the three teams they have beaten surely have to be the three worst teams in the competition. Typical.

[Mcchawk]

Yeah, that's right - the Bulldogs can't be that good, so the three teams they have beaten surely have to be the three worst teams in the competition. Typical.

This wasn't to be a bag aginst the Dogs. I didn't realise you'd played all three

[Eagle87]

I reckon Richmond arent that good BUT we need to remember that they have so far played the Bulldogs (1st), St Kilda (5th) and West Coast (2nd). I mean how many wins would Carlton, Brisbane, Essendon, Port, Collingwood or Hawthorn have had against those 3 sides if they had the same draw the Tigers have had???

[Terry Tan]

Yeah, that's right - the Bulldogs can't be that good, so the three teams they have beaten surely have to be the three worst teams in the competition. Typical.

Now that you mention it, maybe it says how "good" the Dogs really aren't.

Finally some sense on here :thumbsu:

[lazyhare]

The Bombers have beaten last years premiers, narrowly lost to Brisbane in Brisbane and done the same to the team currently on the top of the ladder. Suddenly there in contention for the worst team in league??

[Higgs Boson]

I'd say Richmond closely followed by Essendon then Melbourne

Bookmarked for Round 9, McTwat.

[Eagle87]

The Bombers have beaten last years premiers, narrowly lost to Brisbane in Brisbane and done the same to the team currently on the top of the ladder. Suddenly there in contention for the worst team in league??

So they are 1-2 and if they had Richmonds draw they would be??

(I'll help, they would be 0-3).

Yes they beat Sydney but be honest, Sydney have been shocking (I mean they lost to Port at home and Port have been deplorable). Brisbane are very poor and you had the Doggies but couldnt put them away despite their injury issues ....

I think Essendon are a middle of the road side again and without Lloyd perhaps worse than that ... just my opinion.

[tigerboyz]

Definately the bummers and i'm looking forward to them getting pumped anzac day.:D

[Stan.]

Hawks will give the spoon a shake.

[Raskolnikov]

Definately the bummers and i'm looking forward to them getting pumped anzac day.:D

Make sure you have a box of tissues ready.

[cschreuder61]

I think Richmond would have to be. Melbourne have looked ok at times, but didn't do well against Carlton.

Essendon have looked competitive in all their games, but losing Llyod now hurts them, especially since they have 4 winable games coming up.

But at the moment you'd have to say Richmond, who are going to struggle more with Gaspar carrying something. Their defence is their major problem.

[tigerboyz]

Make sure you have a box of tissues ready.
Don't worry i'll buy them for you.:D

[Mcchawk]

Bookmarked for Round 9, McTwat.

Win a game fair weather supporter

Hawthorn played Geelong in Geelong, Rocca and Fremantle in Tassie.

With the exception of one poor half last week they have dominated all 3 contests!

[Eagle87]

Hawthorn played Geelong in Geelong, Rocca and Fremantle in Tassie.

So if you had played the Doggies at the Dome in round 1, the Saints at the Dome in Rd 2 and the Eagles at Subi in Rd 3, what do you reckon your record would be?

[Terry Tan]

So if you had played the Doggies at the Dome in round 1, the Saints at the Dome in Rd 2 and the Eagles at Subi in Rd 3, what do you reckon your record would be?

their record would be 0-3 and they'd be on the bottom. Having said that, good luck to them it's good to see them on the rise.

[Mcchawk]

their record would be 0-3 and they'd be on the bottom.

BS we ain't Richmond. I'd say 1-2 or 2-1

[Eagle87]

BS we ain't Richmond. I'd say 1-2 or 2-1

Ok, so you are better than which of these 3 teams?

Since you would have beaten either 1 or 2 of them, I am interested in who?

[Punt_Road_Roar]

Ok, so you are better than which of these 3 teams?

Take it easy Eagle87 you might make him cry

:D

[Mcchawk]

Take your pick, none of them aren't unbeatable in my eyes, football isn't like years ago when Hawthorn dominated and we were unbeatable. The competition is is now fair because of the draft

[Mcchawk]

Take it easy Eagle87 you might make him cry

:D

Coming from someone on the bottom, who's crying loser?

[Punt_Road_Roar]

Take your pick, none of them aren't beatbale in my eyes, football isn't like years ago when Hawthorn dominated and we were unbeatable. The competition is is now fair because of the draft

So name one team then, and if they are all beatable then are you saying you would be clearly 3 - 0 ?


LMAO :p

[Punt_Road_Roar]

Coming from someone on the bottom, who's crying loser?


come on tough guy name the one side out of those 3 you would have beaten?

You still havent done it, I wonder why?

[Mcchawk]

come on tough guy name the one side out of those 3 you would have beaten?

Dip ******** I named all three as being beatable, you Richmond supporters are bloody ****************s

[Punt_Road_Roar]

Dip ******** I named all three as being beatable, you Richmond supporters are bloody ****************s

No you didnt, you named no one, you are evading the question.

Would have you beaten the Doggies in round 1? Yes or No ?

Would have you beaten St Kilda in Round 2 at the Dome? Yes or No?

Would have you beaten the Eagles at Subi in Round 3? Yes or No ?

Beatable is not even the same as beaten drop kick :D

[Mcchawk]

Listen you stupid ********ing ********.

We could beat Footscray, St Kilda, Eagles yes on our day

[M29]

First of all it should be "Are richmond, Essendon or Melbourne currently the worst team in the AFL?"

After 3 rounds? We haven't been a ******** as we were last year. You lot are jumping the gun abit. Did you even watch yesterdays game? Last weeks performance was typical interstate rubbish, so nothings changed in that regard. But at least our younger players appear to be stepping up.

[Eagle87]

Take your pick, none of them aren't unbeatable in my eyes, football isn't like years ago when Hawthorn dominated and we were unbeatable. The competition is is now fair because of the draft

In generic terms, I agree that the competition is "equal" and no side is unbeatable etc etc

However, I believe the Bullies in round 1, St Kilda in rd 2 and Eagles in rd 3 were all beyond the capabilities of your team. I await with interest your reasons why the Hawks would have won as many as 2 of those games....

[M29]

Listen you stupid ********ing ********.

We could beat Footscray, St Kilda, Eagles yes on our day
You still have to beat us twice in a year for us to take you lot seriously.

It's like brisbane or port with us. It's a bye round.

[Punt_Road_Roar]

Listen you stupid ********ing ********.

We could beat Footscray, St Kilda, Eagles yes on our day


LMAO your funny !!!

are you always the class clown?

So what your saying is you wouldnt have been 1-2 or 2 -1 you would really be 3-0 if you played those 3 teams on your day?

:D

[Terry Tan]

Listen you stupid ********ing ********.

We could beat Footscray, St Kilda, Eagles yes on our day

I can see you've been reading one of Jeff Kennett's finest political books - "How to give indirect answers to direct questions".

[Mcchawk]

LMAO your funny !!!

Hawthorn for along time now have ALWAYS been a class ABOVE Richmond get use to it

More like the "I'm a dumb prik who thought I'd troll only to see my thread backfire"

:p

[melbournemartin]

Melbourne have more potential in their list than Essendon and definatly Richmond. Just aint showing it enough atm but yesterday was definately an improvment

[Eagle87]

Listen you stupid ********ing ********.

We could beat Footscray, St Kilda, Eagles yes on our day

You could also root Jessica Alba on your day but that day will be the one immediately after hell freezing over...

In Round 1 the Bullies won by 115 points - would you have beaten them on that day?

In Round 2 the Saints won at the Dome - would you have beaten them on that day??

In Round 3 the Eagles won comfortably at Subi - would you have beaten them on that day?

You will note the use of the word would v your use of the word could - a big bloody difference ....

Cheers.

[Mcchawk]

More like the "I'm a dumb prik who thought I'd troll only to see my thread backfire"

Yeah ok fool.

FACT - Richmond is on the bottom

FACT - Hawthorn has nothing to do with this thread.

If you can't handle YOUR football club being spoken about don't come to an internet website on football.

[Punt_Road_Roar]

Hawthorn for along time now have ALWAYS been a class ABOVE Richmond get use to it


class above LOL :p

more like 2 retarded kids in the same year.

Funny how our record head to head over the past 5 years is very similar.

but hey believe what you want !! :thumbsu:

How you can you prove any of your statements?

how can you call after 3 games we have had the bullies, st.k, eagles away and this week bris away pretty tough draw to start some teams haven't left melb where we would have twice get a life

2005 richmond 2 hawks nil always a class above:confused:

[Mcchawk]

2005 richmond 2 hawks nil always a class above:confused:

Last premiership?

[gytre]

Richmond. They are improving though. They pushed the Eagles for 3 quarters in Perth. Might get their first win against Carlton at the G in round five.

Melbourne has started slowly but will get better. They do have a tough draw coming up however.

Essendon was very competitive against the Dogs, but lack real class and depth in their midfield. Losing Lloyd will hurt, but I still reckon they'll beat Collingwood in the Anzac Day clash, because they just seem to always beat the 'Pies.

[bomberbilly]

The difference between Melbourne and essendon is that melbourne seem to be playing their worse football now, their best is yet to come. essendon seems to be playing their best now.

were playing our best footy?

[DynamoUltra]

Richmond are shocking. They are the worst team since Fremantle in 2001. Carlton are second worst and then Melbourne. Essendon will finish between 7 and 10, depending on injuries, so they aren't really in the running.

[JerryWexler]

a team which will be very strong and back to their normal strong self before too long.:eek:

Lets hope for their supporters sake in regards to 2000 they don't do a Collingwood 1990 and live off it for 10 years.

LMFAO. A couple of wins and all of a sudden they're champions handing out assessments of other teams. FFS! Hilarious!

And you've got how many wins? I think you should look after your own team's poor/disgraceful/same old same old/crappy performance


Beep Beep Truck full of manure on it's way to Punt Rd

Ease up its only round 3 FFS.
A lot of football still left.

Still awaits for the answer.
Doggies?

Middle of the road gets you in the finals. I'll take that.

[Antonius]

Finally some sense on here :thumbsu:
Wait a minute, first you say the Doggies aren't that good, but now you say that the Tigers have lost to some of the best teams in the comp (the Dogs being one of them) make up your MIND!!!!!!!!!

[footystar_]

essendon>hawthorn

are u serious..
essendon showed they are a team to play after matching the doggies for most of the game to only go down by 11 points, i believe if they can get a few early wins they could make the 8, but should finish anywhere between 7-10, whilst hawthorn just beat the premiership favorites by 9 goals ?? they are also going to be a big threat with the young group of players they have down there. i reckon they will surely make the 8, and also collingwood are another surprise just a lazy 77 point win.

worst teams, Richmond and Kangaroos followed slowly by sydney and the power

[Coughlan]

I have very much enjoyed seeing you make an absolute clown out of yourself in this thread, and this one is just brilliant, one of the most ironic things i have seen a long time
If you were talking to me, I have answered the question previously.

BEWARE MAJOR HANGUP WHEN USING THE INTERNET TIGER FANS PLEASE LEARN HOW TO READ
bagging people for not being able to read when you clearly have zero concept of the english language, you didnt once say clearly yes or no if hawthorn would have beaten the bulldogs, st. kilda and west coast in rounds 1,2 or 3 all you said was you could on your day, well have i got news for you on our day richmond also could have beaten them. Answer the question and learn the meaning of two of the most basic words in the english language before questioning somebody else's ability to read.

melbournes won 5 in a row now...

kinda pathetic if u ask me... tell me whose the worst team in round 18

thanks

[oc37]

Fantastic team Hawthorn. Well written MccHawk, you should be held in the same regard as Da Vinci and Nostradamus, even Pythagoras- the most brilliant mind of our time.

[AndyLucimitis]

Carlton are still easily the worst (and I'm a Blues fan !!).

[HiHoEverybody]
