One year sample size, with everything going on, and that’s all you needed? Needless to say your argument is laughable. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Can you answer the question, though? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

If only Victorian teams had some advantages that somehow evened it out. Let’s start with giving them more home/neutral games, the grand final in their city no matter who finishes higher and a large number of talented players asking to be traded back to mummy after a few years in the AFL...

Anyone who wasn’t sold on the need for NSW and QLD academies only needs to look at this comment from the kid. That’s something you’ll never hear a kid from NSW say. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

When did I say it was exclusive? It’s just another prehistoric tradition that means less and less each year. All traditions we’re stuck with now are just VFL nostalgia. When I have to see my team finish first and play the 7th placed team at their home ground in the final it’s a bit hard to...

Yeah but father/son is an old tradition, just like playing every grand final at the same ground every year which coincidentally favours only traditional, hard working, honest bonza bloke Victorian clubs. It’s just... it’s just how it’s always been, ok!? Nah, we don’t care about pissy Victorian...

I bloody hope not.

Shhh, the comp is totally fair other than the academies. Eddie told me so.

He really doesn't get why the academy exists. It's incredible.

I didn't mention COLA except when I just mentioned it.

Offered it plenty of times. It's ignored by idiots with their mind made up. No point banging my head against a wall so I'll just have a laugh instead.

But you missed the point. That point being that this is happening now, and not then. So we're all really cranky now, and something must be done now so we're less cranky. The league is trying to be fair in so many ways and the big bad Swans are ruining it for everyone!

Sorry, was I referring to you? Pretty sure I said Eagles.

Eagles supporters just wishing they had a WA state of origin list to choose from like when they first started. Much bigger advantage than anything we get from the academy.

Still waiting for you to list the good players.

Even Collingwood receives money from the AFL. No club is fully independent.

Why would they suddenly start funding it? It's not as if that discussion wouldn't have happened at least once already. Not having a go at you, but why now? The AFL has been making profits for years now.

Foreign markets? That says it all. To Victorians, the rest of the country is a foreign place.

Jesus.

Some people will just never get it. Mostly Victorians. It's explained as nauseum in this thread but it's like banging your head against a wall.

Your opinion is no more than a conspiracy that can't be proven. That's the point Groo2 was making.

Well that's it. He's staying. Fremantle supporters can look forward to him delivering the ball to Clark on a weekly basis.

Lol, oh dear. The only one even talking about 2012 or 2013 is you. It's embarrassing.

The impartial Hawthorn gentlemen are here. Thread saved.

The Vic's don't get it. They don't get that we're massively disadvantaged by our reserves playing in the NEAFL and not a strong league like those in Victoria, WA and SA. The fact that our reserves players develop the way they do is down to a great coaching staff and a system that is rock solid...

Dunkley himself never said that at all. His dad still seems to hold grudges with the Swans but the kid was in the rooms after our flag and appears to love the club.

Hopefully Z. Jones

We did. No one wanted to give us fair value.

From the abuse he copped on the Richmond board I could definitely sense the overwhelming faith you all have in him.
