Where are all the 'Lions can't play at G' posters

Spoke to the president of Fitzroy day after the GF last year who said 'the relationship between the Lions and Fitzroy has never been better than it us now' he also said Lions chairman Andrew Wellington cones to Fitzroy games when the Lions play in Melbourne

Essendon are a bunch of thugs

I honestly feel like it's a mental thing. Too many players believing the hype and not doing the gard stuff. Simple as that. We fix it we are right up there we don't we fall off the cliff Simple as that

Want to throw this out there. How many games can people recall from our women's team where you have walked away dissapointer with their effort? Mot mamy if any. Send Craig Starcovich and Bre Koenen in to give our boys a good talking too

Whilst I agree he wasn't on his own. Our team is the Sam Stosur of the AFL. Have all the talent but mentally weak.

Ah Chee was the only one O thought played well and suorise more people aren't giving him votes. A few others get pass marks but thought he was easily our best

What crowd did the Giants get yesterday? Also slightly off topic but what did the Suns get?

I honestly don't get this. I guess people view sport differently but as mentioned earlier I don't follow soccer nut could name at least 1 player from each Melbourne A-League team.

Be interesting to see what crowd the Giants pull today against a lower drawing opponent. What's a pass mark? 12k??

Ok I know I'm digging up a nearly 20 year old thread but wondering how this sits these days. Yes we all know NBA is better but which is more watchable? 1 think I really hate about NBA is dribbling the last minute or so out instead of playing it our it just seems to go against everything I...

Rebels started off really well but are now struggling. I'm a Storm member. Didn't grow up with any interest in Rugby League but when a Melbourne team came in decided to give it a go and whilst I still prefer Aussie Rules I love the Storm. In the early days of Storm yes kiwis, islanders even ex...

Well support looks great tonight. Interesting to see how many back up next week against the Roos

Yeah Sydney just doesn't have thr sporting passion of Melbourne. Plenty of passionate sporting people in regional NSW tho

No argument there Sydney is a totally different city to Melbourne.

That I don't disagree with what I disagree with is someone saying. No one I know could name a single Storm player, that's just rubbish.

I don't find that believable. As mentioned in my other post I don't follow soccer but can name at least 1 player from each Melbourne A-League team.

Either living in a bubble or just wanting to code bash

I don't follow soccer but I can still name a few players from the Melbourne clubs like McLaren, Risdon, Formarouli

You said 'don't know anyone who would be able to name a single player' Even if we go with current players very few people in Melbourne especially sports fans wouldn't know Munster or Pappy.

Might be 1 ir 2 mire but that's about right but that's a whole different issues. AFL = 9 offices in NSW and 1 in Canberra NRL Victoria I believe have 9 staff members It's not Stormd fault and just another example of why the AFL is a mile in front despite what delusional V'Landys may think.

I didn't follow Rugby League before Storm came in but still knew the name Mal Maninga for instance. Melbourne and Victoria for that matter definitely knew the names Slater Smith and probably Cronk just like another poster mentioned moat people in Western Sydney know Toby Greene. Yes I could...

Yup fair enough. Wasn't blaming you for derailing it apologies if it came across that way and now that I think about it maybe it's not that off topic However without pretending to know the Western Sydney sporting market well I think Melbourne is a very different market. I find it intesting...

Fair enough I'm nit saying it's the best comparison but interesting how Storm compare against the Sydney NRL clubs

Not sure what bubble you living in but everyone knew Slater Smith Cronk and even now everyone knows Pappy, Munster etc. I love Aussie rules way more but that's a ridiculous comment.

Is that counting both the Fox League and Gen ratings? Also Storm got flogged in that final and Collingwood v GWS was close. Even as a die-hard Storm fan I was flicking so I don't think that night was the best comparison. Look how NRL GFs featuring the Storm have gone in Melbourne. Storm are...

Not really As stated Storm average more than the 3 time NRL premiers. At last check have the highest membership in the NRL and I know so many people who yes AFL is there number 1 but get to a few Storm games every year.

If this makes sense NRL is not popular in Melbourne but Storm is very popular

How are Auskick numbers in Western Sydney? If I went to Parramatta today and asked if people knew they were playing on Sunday how many would know. I know Melbourne is different but Billy Slater for example could easily be King of Moomba

Sure but most experts only tipped them to win one of those 3. I just think there is a very different feeling about this government in regional Victoria compared to Melbourne
