If Op could turn back time
If Op could find a way

And you'd bray

Another on norwood parade. Then villis on both main north and south rd go alright

Who would have thought there'd be such a thing in Adelaide? Great stuff. We really enjoy it!

Surprisingly, the one I mentioned is called Bakery on O'Connell.

Again, who would have thought?

No, worse. Draft-assisted premierships.

Hope that helps!

The OP posts the truth. Pity that if his plastic frankenstain of a team ever wins anything it will rightly be disregarded as a gift of the compromised drafts he correctly deplores.

In all fairness, we had 2 cracks. That's technically working hard.

You had 3 cracks at it in 2 years even

We beat West Germany you big nosed campaigner, learn to World Cup

Couldn't beat Iceland FMD

My party trick is being able to say every winner, runner up, and where it was played of each WC final

Everyone gets amazed

2006 is a great example of a scandal free premiership. Not compromised in the slightest.

 

[Pessimistic]

Is this about VFA flags again ?

Couldn't agree more - Eagles iced it beautifully!

 

[SwampCreature]

Eagles clearly deserved it.

Crystal clearly.

VFA flags > compromised premierships.

Give it ten years and people will be introduced to the footy show as "three-time comprimised premiership player X".

That's if they're not too ashamed to show their face onTV.

Anyone know a good 24hr pie shop?

Don't tell me. Introduce moral premiers instead

Doubt it
If Timmy can hold a straight face while blaming bad governance, I have faith

It's just another reason why the Geelong team of 07-11 was the greatest team of the modern era.

Listen to me you scumbags.

Anyone with an iota of football knowledge knows the difference between hard-earned success and pathetic charity.

They know when victory is the result of hard work and skill and when it all comes down to a fluke of timing.

They know when a team has really earned a flag and when a side has coasted to success on the back of a compromised competition.

For twenty years the draft existed to even the competition. Right now the draft is working. The comp is unpredictable as the cycle forces old teams to bottom out and injects fresh talent into young up-and-comers.

But for a time, it didn't. For a three-year period in the early-to-mid parts of the decade, the draft was rogered to pimp out new teams and it ripped up the integrity of the comp.

When history looks back on that period, those flags will mean nothing. They will likely be stripped from the books. A dark and shameful asterisk will hang over them for all time.

We will look back at 2012 as a hard-earned victory and 2016 as the herald of something special.

Everything else will bring laughter and scorn.

And those supporters will look back and nod sagely, knowing they willingly and happily ate shit for an entire era - one that immediately brought irrelevancy as soon as the comp was rebalanced.

Did you just disqualify yourself from replying to your own thread?

that's unfortunate..
