Yet here we are with GWS, a soon to be manufactured premiership side/dynasty.

Call me a whinging Carlton fan, sooking because his joke of a team is getting arse whipped by them but it's the truth and you know it.

I had to make this thread after hearing some of the tripe David King speaks. "how good is this?", "they have a great amount of talent" etc. No shit you fat campaigner Kingy. Give any team the concessions they've had and we'll see this kind of play.

Is this what we want footy fans? We talk up equality, bring in ridiculous caps on footy department spending and yet here we are with a side in GWS and possibly Gold Coast that will dominate the league up in areas where quite frankly nobody gives a rat toss about football.

Draft concessions, mini drafts etc. What is this? The 1980s? Why don't we bring back zoning and salary cap cheating if we're gonna be like that. And before you have a go at me for going for Carlton, I wasn't aroids back then so have never agreed or barracked for sides that were pumped up by that.

What other sports league has ever manufactured teams like this? I doubt you would find any.

Just need the AFL to keep helping out the Swans while teams like Brisbane, Carlton etc will struggle to be relevant.

It is an absolute farce and get real if you want to enjoy these fake ******* franchises dominate the league.

P.S if you want to talk about what team I follow or if I supported expansion from day one ( I never liked it) head off to the bay.

The team I support is irrelevant. If you like watching league's that in 2015 are still as unequal as they come then good for you. You're part of the problem.
My team got smashed by gws last year and thats not the afls fault. Its not the afls fault my team are just as shit as yours. Maybe you should take a look at your club before bitching about the afl.

Where did I ever blame the AFL for Carlton's ineptness?

Everything about them is over the top and nobody seems to want to hear it.

They'll realise when they're dominant.
not everything is over the top IMO.

If you take out the benefits they received from the minidraft picks, upcoming clubs have a much easier time of challenging them. You are just overrating them because they are taking a chit on your side right now.

26 first rounders in the span of a few years I'm pretty certain the stat was. That's pretty absurd. Just think about the talent and leverage that has given them.

They can give away key forwards and not miss a beat. That's only the start of it.
