Game The Vic’s have NEVER had a squad this good.

Good midfield, embarrassing forward line an defense.

I know, right! It would be over by half way through the second.

 

[brett15]

lol I just noticed O'Meara made WA's team

 

[MadMundy]

Vics in here don't like being considered the second best footy state it seems

 

[barnrokn]

Jackovich destroyed Carey each time they played against each other. You picked the wrong player to compare them against.

Lmao at many of the west coast inclusions too. Someone hit auto-fill for sure.

Page 3 and you have only JUST actually looked at the team, this after your idea of a Vic forward line included a Queenslander & a NSWelshman.

Automatic jimmy rustling at the mere mention of SOO noted.

Quite a damning quote here exposing the VFLs reliance on WA talent.

“A Western Australian team comprised entirely of home-based players had, on 25 June, taken on a Victorian team containing many of the same players who would return to Perth ... for the state of origin clash. The respective scores of the two matches offered a persuasive argument, if such were needed, of the extent to which the VFL had denuded the WAFL of its elite talent:

• On 25 June 1977 Victoria 23.16 (154) defeated Western Australia 13.13 (91) — a margin of 63 points
• On 8 October 1977 Western Australia 23.13 (151) defeated Victoria 8.9 (57) — a margin of 94 points, representing an overall turn around of 157 points

Western Australia's previous biggest winning margin against a Victorian state team had been a mere 38 points in 1948. Almost overnight, an inferiority complex was dismantled: Victoria, it seemed, was not intrinsically superior, only wealthier.

It's the supercoach generation having a HAPPY BUDDHA brain fart

Didn't realise TLDR would outrage you this much ROFL!!!

Ok I had another glance and noticed they named Liam Ryan and Rory Lobb!! Hahahaha did you even look at the list before hitting post new thread?

LOL, you are so rattled.

Tell me again how Carey and Dunstall are all time greats of Victoria.

 

[brett15]

Where do you think they learned how to play footy? It wasn't in the WAFL!! You keep posting like Dunstall didn't play for Victoria, or the way things were 30 years ago are how they are today

Even if both are omitted under 'full state of origin rules' instead of partial, there's still a plethora of options to replace them. Dermott Brereton and Matthew Lloyd could easily be added to a forward line with Lockett and Ablett

Brereton, Lloyd, Lockett, Ablett, Rocca, Loewe, Hall, Grant, Longmire, Salmon, Madden, Daicos, Lyon, Lynch all played around that era. Hell even Gehrig. Theres 14 options for 2-3 fwd positions. Weve got them covered that many times over its embarrassing lol. its simply no contest.

 

[beema limapep]

OP should have at least include Baker, Pickett, Stack and McIntosh in their WA team. Many players named purely being good to ok players once and/or average today. Glad he's not the selector!

In other areas, Franklin is a shadow of his former self, Kennedy is finished, Darling is B grade and.....hang on.......whos that tucked away trying to hide on the bench - Lobb(??) as the back up ruck/fwd?

Are there any other options?

Would only kick 9 goals against the Vic defence tops! Theyd be ******* AXED!!!

So with all these “guns” why the need to pick 2 blokes who are not even Victorian?
Haha keep failing it is hilarious.

Haha give us a spell.

BWAHHAAHAhaha so why not originally include them in your “plethora” of options for a Victorian SOO side instead of two blokes who are not even Victorian?
lol struggling to get a homegrown forward line much?

 

[Heathen]

Men were tough men back in those days. Esp from Vic. Still are. Would run through soft pricks like Jakovich whilst he was busy preening himself.

Ironic that of all the names out there, you should choose to use Jakovich as your example of "soft pricks" being run through by one of the "tough men" from the photo you were referencing.
Gary Ablett tried his best run through Glen Jakovich in the 1992 GF (around the five minute mark of the third quarter) while the 18 year old eagle was sprinting to the fall of a Michael Mansfield kick out of defence. A split second before impact, Jakovich saw the would be sniper lining him up and was able to brace. This resulted in Gablett being sat on his arse while the young eagle, still on his feet, trotted off to resume tearing Barry Stoneham a new ring piece.
One of the commentators goes on to mention, a minute or so later, "Gary Ablett still feeling the pinch from that clash with Jakovich".

You should check it out. I think anyone who doesn't support Geelong would take some mirth out of the incident. I'd post a clip of it, if I had even a modicum of editing skills.

Not to be pedantic, but this bloke's a New Souf Welshie too.

Read the first three lines.

He was a preener theres no two ways about it.

Bro if you do not even know what a Victorian is then how can you identify a ‘preener’?

BTW here is the ultimate Victorian ‘preener’ for you, you are welcome.

 

[Freofalcon]

This is what an all star forward looks like x 4

Lol. Typical Prictorian. Claiming players who aren’t Pricks. Worked for many years until we bent you over and went in dry with the advent of SOO. Amazing what happens when the playing field is even.

 

[beema limapep]

Stop wasting our time WAmpaigners. You are out of your depth.

I think it is more the fact he genuinely did not even know.

I will admit, Jako did become quite diligent with the styling of his Fred Astaire, but he wasn't the only one.

Ladies and gentlemen, I give you the the original queen of preen. Victorian hard man, Permott Brereton.

 

[HAPPY BUDDHA]

Stop wasting our time WAmpaigners. You are out of your depth.

And you must be out of quality players if you are relying on Qlders, NSWelshies and old man GAJlett to field a side.

That not a single NSW oh wait, QLD hang on, Victorian supporting flog wants to touch this cold hard fact is proof of how insecure and inferior they realise they are.
