Not a single Crows player.

The AFC will have a press conference during the week to talk about the importance of non-statistical roles.

400kay is definitely unlucky.

Tough side to pick. Roo is unlucky, Voss etc. Not sure Mitchell deserved a spot. Few ahead of him I would think.

Andrew McLeod.. better than half of these players.

 

[GROTTO]

What is this list?

robert-walls-and-david-parkin-select-the-greatest-vflafl-team-of-the-past-50-years

 

[CrowsB4hoes]

Greatest AFL team of last 50 years I'm assuming.

McLeod stiff. Should be ahead of Doull.

 

[GROTTO]

Andrew McLeod.. better than half of these players.

Agree.

Hawkins ahead of McLeod/Hird/Diesel is a joke.

 

[CrowsB4hoes]

Wanganeen was a gun.

But McLeod was better.

On Triple M a caller rang in saying that on social media a lot of talk about the 97 premiership players being pissed off with the club.

Anyone heard about this?

Probably the same Port supporter that rang AA and mentioned the same thing

 

[GROTTO]

Why were the '97 players upset?

 

[treeman]

Probably the same Port supporter that rang AA and mentioned the same thing

Yeah heard that one on fiveaa this morning too. Seemed really odd. It was a bit underwhelming for supporters from what I've heard but seriously I doubt there is anything to it for the players.

 

[Tyls83]

Hope someone can help, saw an animated GIF of KG & Stud laughing at the 119, anyone know where I can find it again?

YouTube ...KG Cornes 2007.

 

[treeman]

I think that's a myth. The players were in a private function all night. I would suggest the unhappiness stems from fans wanting a motorcade like Geelong. What did we do for the 10 years? Geelong probably went slightly overboard imo. The reunions are really for the players to get together and get smashed and talk shit about the old days.

I agree I can see why Geelong may have seemed to be a bit overboard however it was a 10 year celebration for the highest winning grand final win in the history of the sport!

 

[Jars458]

Wanganeen was a gun.

But McLeod was better.

Both brilliant. Wangas had ten goals kicked on him by Ablett in a state game and was still terrific.

Borrowed for the Bay
Images that epitomise a players career...
Early days but can't see anything changing !

 

[Pugsley]

Orazzzziiiìooooo !!!!!!!!!!

 

[LiquidCrow]

What's this team supposed to be?

Article is paywalled.

Best AFL/VFL team of the last 50 years - team selections made by an ex-Carlton player (Robert Walls) and former Carlton coach (David Parkin).

Not only no Crows players, but also no Collingwood players were selected.

 

[Roovolution]

Was it a Port supporter?

Deflect! Deflect!

Exactly. Crows win showdown and their fan yells racist abuse/throws banana and suddenly there was a mysterious Crows fan who yelled something too or did something too. So predictable.

 

[NikkiNoo]

Not too sure other team's leadership would have allowed that for the entire game

Their only way to counter it was to flood the defence and hold the ball in and get a fast break themselves, but they couldn't maintain that for more than 5 minutes it seemed.

 

[TexForPM]

Wingard and Gray walking off side by side. Surprised they're not tripping over each other feigning frees.

Haha
Yes!!!

I dont think Essendon supporters should boo Ryder for no other reason than their club cost him a season. Piss poor really. We at least have an excuse.

That's why they are booing him, because he wasn't one of those brave, honest ones that stayed with the club that didn't really do them wrong. It was all the AFL's fault.

 

[Deaneus!]

"Booing Ryder is poor, you don't boo champions"

Career highlights

• Anzac Medal 2009
• 2007 AFL Rising Star nominee

"He won the Anzac Medal in 2009 after teammate David Hille was injured in the opening minutes of the game, resulting in Ryder rucking unassisted for the entire game."


FMD, they have a low, low bar for Champions down Port way.

Looooooooooooow.

 

[Elite Crow]

He should get a week for it, as should anyone else doing similar. Do it again you get 2 weeks. Then 4.

Easiest way to stamp it out of the game.

It got a mention on the SA Footy Show, Grant Thomas tweeted that he should have got a game, Choco said if he was coach he would talk to him and Kane moved on pretty quick.

When I saw who was on that today I couldn't change the channel fast enough

 

[chazwazza]

Anyone got any footage of Port rolling out their banner late.

My understanding is that the club wanted to give it a low profile given it was 20 years ago.

Just another Power supporter dreaming up crap. Nothing to see or hear.

If only they stopped drinking the bath water and realise their team is average on every level.

It's always a bit manufactured when they just pluck a H&A game against the same oppo in that year.

What if we don't play North at home next year? The past players all roll down to Tasmania?

My take it was entirely a past players function not really a Club thing. Andrew Eccles was there and he didn't play the 97 flag.
