    Do supporters of "poor clubs" get sick of their club's plight?

    The root of PA's problems are due to its belated entry to the league - the fact that the Crows were created and marketed as 'the team for all South Australians' doesn't do them any help entering 4yrs later. That and the SANFL bleeding them dry with the worst stadium deal in the league - how it...

    Do supporters of "poor clubs" get sick of their club's plight?

    It definately isn't, but North can't blame all their problems on the league's executives - it isnt their fault North have low membership and attendances. Yes, better timeslots will improve this but when you get sub 25k to home game on a Saturday arvo, by how much will it improve? 10-15k max ...

    Do supporters of "poor clubs" get sick of their club's plight?

    Maybe that's cause you averaged mediocre crowds that season, and better timeslots simply can't be handed out. Don't make it out as if the AFL are out to get North- high achieving clubs (on and off the field) are rewarded. Look at Saints, small supporter base yet they get around 4 friday night...

    Do supporters of "poor clubs" get sick of their club's plight?

    How sustainable is it from the AFL's point of view to have underperforming clubs on the biggest weekly stage ?? How long do you reckon they can accept sub 40k crowds in primetime slots? They may have invented it, and they definately deserve more than 1 Friday night game, but they need to earn...

    Do supporters of "poor clubs" get sick of their club's plight?

    While Friday night games should be shared around (Blues getting 6 annoys me :cool:), clubs must earn it through strong on field performances and attendances. If North are pulling 25k crowds there is no way the AFL will risk having them on in primetime slots, the loss of revenue will be too...

    Do supporters of "poor clubs" get sick of their club's plight?

    The Bulldogs should be fine as the population out West is booming and tipped to house approx 35% of Melbournians in the next decade (up from 25ish). You would hope that the club will and already is taking advantage of this, heaps of young families moving in, send them a bulldogs pack and...

    Do supporters of "poor clubs" get sick of their club's plight?

    Let's be realistic here, what would happen if the AFL gave teams like North/WB more primetime night matches, do you automatically think crowds will boost to 60k+ and ratings 800k+ ?? I agree that they should definately get a bigger slice of the primetime slots but to argue that a lack of 'em...

    Geelong 2007 vs. Collingwood 2010 - Neutrals only

    On the side??? They are both premiership teams so I don't know what everyone is arguing about. Can't we just learn to love each other and promote peaceful co-existence?

    That is the worst F****ng team ive ever seen you will be very lucky to win 5+ games in 2013 with that list let alone a premiership. As we showeded this year its then just youth which is what seems to give false hope to so many essendon supporters. 'Oh reimers may be s**t now but he will...

    Geelong 2007 vs. Collingwood 2010 - Neutrals only

    Collingwood 2010 will go down in history as one of the greatest premiership sides of all time. Geelong 2007 were nothing more than a few stars who dominated because there was no competition. In 07, St Kilda were still adapting to Ross Lyon's gameplan, Hawthorn and Collingwood too young...

    Freo to play first MCG game of the year vs Geelong next week

    Re: Fremantle 0 games at the MCG this year until next weeks final ..totally biased and unfair Yeah sure with Freo's great record away from home I'm sure you would've been fine playing Geelong, St Kilda, Bulldogs and Hawthorn all twice. Just fine. We finished first because we were the best...

We were extremely wasteful, 58 inside 50s to 38, 31 scoring shots to 21 yet we couldn't capitalise on our opportunities up forward. To be honest I'm happy with a draw considering...

    Just how well has recruiting gone since Pelchen

    As one of the posts stated above, your top 6 players would walk into any team's starting lineup, but what about the bottom 6-8 ?? Guys like hodge, sewell and franklin can all have stellar seasons and be selected for AA or what not, but at the end of the day, if your bottom 6-10 players aren't...

    Ball's TOG of only 65%

    Even if we did overpay, which we didn't, but if we did, YOU were UNDERPAID. You got nothing for him, when you could've at least had pick 30 and picked up a youngster. St Kilda lose.

    Is Fraser finished?

    No way, he's weak in the marking contest, and makes stupid decisions with the ball. When the ball hits the deck, he's gone. Josh's best is quite good, but he hasn't been consistent for years and unless he can improve considerably in the next few weeks, his spot in the side will come under...

    Ball's TOG of only 65%

    Luke isn't the one delivering it to them you fool, it's class players like pendlebury, davis, didak, medhurst and swan. Stop trying to make it seem like we think of Bally as our messiah, he plays an important inside role for us and does it very well. Is it any coincidence that we have seen...

    Ball's TOG of only 65%

    He was off for a decent portion of the game with a rolled ankle, and his team were up by 10 goals for most of the night anyway, what's the point of risking him? Most Saints fans (not all are this delusional) are creating weekly threads on Ball based on rubbish, 'can't kick more than 40m', 'too...

    Will Hawthorn and Collingwood play finals???

    Your comment, ' Do you care who won the school cup 50 yrs ago? ' made it seem as if you didn't care for history, or you care but just typed it just to cover up St Kilda's poor history. You could get a Buckley or a Hird to talk to a young, nervous group before a blockbuster, inspiring them to...
