Best team won on the day....interstate team fails again on the g in finals....all part of the picture.....when the critics take aim..
 
8 out of 9 games decided by 36+. Worst finals series ever? Ironic given home and away season had so many close games.


This competition has become a weakened diluted product of what it once was. The amount of players competition wide that are playing Senior AFL Football that are not AFL quality is glaring. We have at least half a dozen.
 
There is only one place the AFL Grand Final should be played at and that is the MCG. Always has been and always will be.

Goes against "tradition" but I prefer the game being played on a neutral venue. Obviously will never happen until the majority of stadiums in Australia hold 70k+ fans though. It's also amazing how every ground used in the AFL have different dimensions to each other. Really should be a set standard, but that will cost way too much to rectify.
 
We made him an offer he wanted to leave.
Obviously the offer wasn't enough, he was fourth in line, he shouldn't gave been
 
Bookmark it. Essendon for the flag next year to complete the fairytale for the poor fans that have had to endure the despair of supporting a team who thinks its ok to run an illegal injection program.

If the majority of the competition continue to s**t the bed then this is entirely possible. The supposed better sides in this competition continue to under achieve. To which we are one & Today it was Adelaide's turn .
Having said that Richmond's effort today and for the majority of the year makes them deserved Premiers. Amazingly several of their players in post game interviews all quoted themselves as a team with not the most talent but a whole lot of spirit. Maybe our blokes should take the same outlook and see if that works because being rated at the top end of the spectrum obviously doesn't sit well with them. Don't know if this will ever happen from external opinions though because as late as Thursday night guess who is a $4 favourite with TAB Sportsbet to win the 2018 AFL Premiership ? You Guessed it !:rolleyes:

Yep this makes me feel better about our grand final performances. Interstate sides are up against it constantly.
Unless they're playing against a non-Victorian side.
 
At least we're not Essendon.

10 goals behind us who were 10 goals behind Geel who were 10 goals behind Adel who were basically 10 goals behind Richmond. :eek:

I was thinking the same today. AFL is conjuring fairytales these days, rather than just providing a level playing field.
