2020 Non-Crows AFL Discussion

[Mutineer]

Enjoyed some “good” moments without starring. That doesn’t fill you with much confidence for a bloke picked in the Top 10 of the draft...

Seems U18's AA selectors Luke Power, Mick Ablett and Kevin Sheehan rated his efforts more than Twomey....Named on ball along with Sam Walsh.

 

[Crow till I die]

This is clear corruption

Where is caro.wilson in all this..its 'her' richmond that has caused this after all

 

[GROTTO]

That's only a thread though? They also have a long running one on the Bombers (aka "*" to them).

Geez, the way they continue to carry on you'd think we had a thread or two taking the p!ss about them or something.

I miss your weekly live scoreboard on the Blues.

 

[Crow till I die]

That Red Bull has a seriously unhealthy obsession with us. Parrots the same stuff every post and brings us into every single one. We're heading towards being the worst AFL team since it re-named from the VFL, but 5 spoons in 18 years, a multitude of high draft picks yet are still battling to make the finals suggests that Blues fans really need to be looking at how well they've been run since the turn of the century.

Thank god we didnt enter into another 1st round pick swap deal with them again last year

 

[Mutineer]

Why has Will Gould not got a game for Sydney yet? Is he injured?

Given his abysmal (that's being kind btw) results in all the "endurance" testing at the Draft Combine there's a fair chance a lot of work was/is required on his tank

Got to laugh that Carlton board have an entire forum about us, what's with all the hate from them?

This post is for when new posters 10 years from now are asking the same question.

It didnt help that GrommoT and myself were trolling them regularly throughout 2019. But seriously they need to build a bridge and get over it, its 2020 FFS.

Time to move on.

I wouldnt be surprised if they have kept some info as backup for special occasions in case a Vic team may appear to be in the media spotlight for all the wrong reasons.

Do you really believe this is the end of the Camp? Im sure more will come out, real or not, it wont matter.

Im just waiting for the day the Crows are linked to the Coronavirus.

Wait for the mental health card to be played by the Cotchins

Yeah..seen this story before a couple of years back...

Cotchin 'how about you don't suspend me for the grand final for the accidental collision with young dylan shiel..those head knock rules don't apply to me surely'

AFL ' oh sure trent we don't want to see you cry in public so we will forget about the head high snipe you dished out..and after all there is no way we want to get in the way of the great richmond fairytale..oh and we are happy to help you out by making sure there are 3 victorian (crow hating) umpires lined up to assist.'

Cotchin 'now about brandon ellis....'

 

[chazwazza]

Another great SANFL player entered the Pearly Gates yesterday, Footscray/South Adelaide/SA champion David Darcy father of Bulldogs champion Luke Darcy passed away at 76. I reckon he represented both Victoria and SA at the Carnivals, generally at Centre Half Back/ Full Back?

If I recall right David was a well known Publican in SA after retiring from football including the Roxby Downs pub.

Didn’t know that, remember him from tv as a kid. Don’t rate his son’s efforts in the media but respect to David.

It was going well until they woke up and kicked Bolton under the bus.

Such a sliding doors moment in September 2017, Cotchin getting off on that deliberate premeditated hit.

 

[Crow till I die]

Trump could do worse than get the he AFL on side

Yeah maybe..and cleary would never get a job at CNN..he reports the truth

 

[GROTTO]

Gosh I remember the campaign I ran on, here "Saving Private Bolton".

He was our saviour and link to Pick 1.

Other than Dangerfield, he's the most influential player (off field) in the comp.

Is he involved with the AFLPA?

 

[GROTTO]

Unfortunately for Bolton, one of the reasons he was sacked was because the Blues were in a direct collision course to hand us Pick 1 in 2019.

 

[chazwazza]

Yep, absolutely:

The AFL are getting absolutely blasted by all journos on Twitter, surely they will see this and realize they’ve ballsed this up?

The old “wearing two hats and still doing my job” line. I thought Eddie Maguire had that shtick trademarked.

 

[chazwazza]

AFL control all Footy media. Not just their direct employees.

Even the Camp stuff. It provides click bait for media partners

Report on anything outside what the AFL want reported, they take your accreditation.

Demitriou set all this in place with an iron fist you know where

You know the Blues have a counter for the number of days since the Dons won a final.

You could always have one for when the Blues last won a final?

If I am not mistaken September 11 2011.

3248 days

September 8 2013, still the 4th longest finals win drought behind Essendon, Brisbane and St Kilda.

Unfortunate, thanks for that. Their last win being September 11 2011 was easy to remember too. So its been 7 years and those campaigners still beat their chest.

 

[GROTTO]

GrommoT you can always have a running counter for Kade Simpson, the Biggest Loser in AFL history?

Its a weekly update too that can be added on here. Food for thought. Otherwise we can stick to your feral neighbours and they number of days since they last won a final.

Nah ... I've moved on.

 

[chazwazza]

I seem to remember Shiel was hit in the head twice in that prelim I thought it was Cotchin both times. Maybe in the same contest.
