Crows Play Youth Team In 2001

🥰 Love BigFooty? Join now for free.

The Crows are set to play a young team in 2001 which i believe is the right choice by the coach. In 2 years we will win the Premiership!

It seems like the off-season is driving us crazy already.

How about a bit of "Thread Necrophilia"?

This gem, posted at the end of 2000, attracted a total of zero responses!!!

Just for info, the Crows made it to an Elimination Final in 2001, but were flogged by Carlton.
The prediction of a premiership in 2 years was bold, but maybe not so far off?
Crows made it to the Prelim in 2002 and Semi in 2003.
In 2004 we fell off the perch with just 8 wins.

The debutant list for that year was awe-inspiring (or maybe not....)

Debut Yr, player, total games, goals scored, years on list
2001 Matthew Shir 11 1 2001–2002
2001 Hayden Skipworth 44 22 2001, 2003–2006
2001 Matthew Bode 79 71 2001–2007
2001 Stuart Bown 4 1 2001
2001 Adam Richardson 2 1 2001
2001 James Gallagher 38 11 2001–2004

And listening to that weird alien dial-up sound, then spending 10 minutes to download a crappy 126kbps song from Limewire ... ah the early 2000s. :rainbow:

10 minutes ?

More like about 30-40 !!!!!

I can even remember before Napster and using IRC and having to wait in queue for a few hours just to get one song
 
I still remember being shown Napster for the first time. It was the night of the Sydney Olympic Opening Ceremony - Was at my mate's place and it was on tv in the background but there was much more interesting things happening for me that I didn't watch any of it.... downloading music!!

Jeepers I reckon we had the original Telstra Cable back in '01. 6/1 MBit unlimited downloads. I was forgoing homework to play Diablo 2 and Counter-Strike every evening.

I never downloaded music until 2003 - on my grey Acer laptop plugged into the wall internet cable. I still have one relic shit-quality track from those early days on my current laptop. Around that era I also streamed a video on the net for the first time - took half an hour to download and the content was barely recognisable. And now you can watch millions of videos in full HD. I very enthusiastically greeted the advent of Youtube, and got an account in February 2007. By the late 2000s, I had broadband but my data was severely limited - very, very annoying.
