Any Era match up

[TheKanga]

If Richmond make the GF.
Imagine late 90s North vs. Current day Richmond.

Bloodbath.

 

[footyfan1978]

Southby, Perovich and Doull.

Chris Johnson.

Aker and McRae.

Brisbane mids.

Carlton tall forwards.

Carlton rucks.

Brisbane foot soldiers.

Couple of changes.
Wayne Harmes eats Chris Johnson at quarter time change over as a snack.
Wayne Johnston trumps Aker and McRae on his own.
Ken Hunter wins the versatile talent duel and
Lions tall forwards trump our tall forwards.

 

[Herne Hill Hammer]

Aker on his own was better than all the Carlton mosquito fleet.

We're about to take-off I'll have to address the rest later.

 

[footyfan1978]

Aker on his own was better than all the Carlton mosquito fleet.

Dominator would take him to the cleaners.
Voss v the Dom much fairer match up actually.
God they were guns.

 

[ScoobySnacks]

1989 Hawks vs 2007 Cats.

But under 80s rules for umpiring.

I actually think that Cats team would get better under 80s umpiring. Scarlett, Rooke, Chapman, Mooney, Hunt and Milburn were all hard as nails and would have cherished being able to cream blokes on and off the ball.

Would be a ripping contest.

Port Adelaide 2011 vs Melbourne 2013

 

[demondavey]

Melbourne side that lost to Fitzroy by 190 points v Melbourne side that lost to Geelong by 186 points.

I'd have to say the side that lost to Fitzroy. I was at the game where we lost to Geelong. It was wet, dark, cold, windy and the game was just as bad. The only consolation was the train ride home, it was full of Melbourne supporters, at least the majority of Geelong supporters where from down there. It was very very very quiet...... I also didn't have to pay to get into the ground, which was also a positive.

Port 07 grand final side v Dees 88 grand final side

Did Robbie Flower play in the 1979 game?
He on his own would split it to the 79 side I would think.
God his was a sublime player to watch in action.

Corey, Bartel, Kelly, Ling, Harley and Johnson. I'd consider all those to be pretty hard at it as well.

If you could pick 2 sides of any Era to sit back and watch play against each other what would you wanna see?

Personally I'd love to see the Hawks of the late 80s up against the Lions of 03. It would be the most brutal blood bath of all time mixed in with the pure skill of the eras as well

I think you're right. It'd be last man standing.

Carlton 79-82 v anyone !!

Awesome side that a lot of fans forget about in discussions of GOAT.

Not sure. We didn't really have a decent player that year other than Jones and McDonald. It was one of the worst games i'd been to. I watched the loss to Collingwood in round 23 this year, and that would be up there because of what was at stake. Other games that were horrible was the loss to Essendon by 150 points under Neeld and a round one loss to the Lions at the G by about 10 goals.

Reckon they'd have matched up better against Hawthorn of the eighties than the later sides.

Fremantle 2013 vs St Kilda 2009. A Ross Lyon Royale Rumble.

A cure for insomnia

 

[demondavey]

A cure for insomnia

No the cure for insomnia would be the Ross Lyon presser post game - a slow, drawn out drawl....

 

[yodellinhank]

1991 saints v 2004 saints

Spot on. Aside from James Hird, the biggest stain on the game.

Bit harsh on Ross Lyon. Please apologise now.

 

[Dank You Steven]

Love to see:

Hawthorn 88 v Essendon 85.
Geelong 07 v Hawthorn 14

I'd also love to see Hawthorn play the 2013 GF v Fremantle again - we played with so much fear that day. Without it I reckon to could have been 80 plus. Just go to round 3 2014 to see what should have happened.

Nope. His tactics, attitude, and use of totally shit players has dragged footy down.

 

[footyfan1978]

Hawthorn 88 v Essendon 85.

Dons team still kicks 10 or 11 goals against you in last quarter.
There is no joy there for you.
