Well *technically* it is for Non-Lions Footy talk ... but don't let me derail your rant

Not sure whether this is thread worthy but might generate some off season discussion.

It occurred to me that, in footy (and sport generally), there are very few "universal truths". I mean, the type of question where everyone shares the same opinion. The greatest player of all time may well be Leigh Matthews but there are enough people who'd suggest Carey or an Ablett might ahead.

So, I was wondering what type of footy issue or question has everyone in agreement on.

- Gary Ablett Snr is the greatest player not to win a premiership?
- Matthew Pavlich is the best Fremantle Docker of all time?

Others?

Anthony Rocca - Worst 200 gamer of all time

Jim Stynes greatest Irish player of all time.

Jim Stynes greatest Irish player of all time.

We'll discuss that when Pearce has retired after a long successful career.

I was going to add a disclaimer and state that Pearce is making a strong claim for the title

I'll go Ryan Houlihan, Steven Baker or Nathan Eagleton.

 

[POBT]

Michael Voss still universally considered the greatest Brisbane Lion?

Whoosh

Thought the Anthony Rock/Rocca Bigfooty meme was universally known.

 

[POBT]

Whoosh

Obviously.

Nah, Polkinghorne.

 

[dlanod]

Obviously.

I was going to take the bait too and mention the insult that was to Josh Fraser... but apparently not knowing BF main board memes is a negative.

Footballs are red, and sometimes yellow.

 

[alscotoz2]

The modern footballer isn't allowed to be an individual with a personality.

 

[Old Den]

Nah, Polkinghorne.

That's playing not mowing.

Article on the committal hearing yesterday...

FOOTBALLER Majak Daw raped a teenage girl in scrub land beside a creek during a house party in 2007, a court has heard.

The 23-year old, who was just 16 at the time, has pleaded not guilty to the charges.

<snip>

A witness to the alleged rape, whose name has been suppressed from publication, said she caught the Sudanese-born footballer with his pants down in a missionary position on top of her terrified friend.

“I’d say it was in between crying and screaming,’’ she said. The witness said she was about four metres away when Daw spotted her.

“He had one hand on her chest, like restraining her,’’ she told the court.

That sounds a lot worse than the early reports of this

 

[James North]

Witness at the scene very powerful. If this is a true account, I hope he's locked up.
