The media here in Melb has gone full circle this week, like the angry mob in the Simpsons.
Starts off with...
- how terrible are the Brisbane Lions. Pathetic effort, lack of leadership blah blah blah
- Leppas head will be on the chopping block. Lost the players, no wonder players leave every year. His coaching record is the worst!
- uh oh if the lions are really bad this year they MIGHT ask the afl for money assistance. Grrrr " how dare they - big deal if they spend a $1.5 mill less"
- even worse they MIGHT ask the afl for priority picks . Nooooooo!
This coming from Collingwood and hawthorn supporters ( history will show they have been beneficiaries of this)
- media personalities lighting more spot fires in the crowd. Ironic a tigers supporter with numerous premierships calls out...." but what about the doggies, saints and Melb " they haven't won a premiership in yonks! Can't help Brisbane they had their shot, they f**ked it up, no way, let them stay on the bottom.
- oh but their academy thingy is giving them too much of an advantage. ( comes from big head ed) that's not fair...... Oh big deal if we have poached their young talent and paid peanuts for them. That's their "Kulcha" problem not ours.
- get rid of them they have very small supporter base ( only then realised that the latest multi billion dollar rights must consist of the lions) yeah well as long as it's beneficial to us.
-put a team in Tasmania. That will fix everything!( Gill face plants into sign )
- who cares if they are in a non afl state. ( afl stands for Australian football league durrrrrr!)
That was the week that was...
