Melbourne drafting blunders mount

[Brad Roo]

In your heart of hearts, Brother SLF, do you hope that this Bastinac might turn out to be the new Brady Rawlings?

The supreme irony of all this is that Brady would have won 6 Bluey Truscott Medals.

Have any of you guys checked out the Melbourne F.C. wiki page?

The thing has 10 chapters, 5 of which are titled:

"Decades of disappointment"

"Facing oblivion"

"Partial revival"

"Daniher's departure and rebuilding"

"2008 – Birthday Celebrations and Financial Crisis"

The thing reads like a bloody horror story.


Then there's this comedic gem:

"2009-Improvement"

really? I was reading something the other day where a bloke said 'Shane Harvey is a better footballer than Aaron Davey'

just because one knobhead makes a stupid call doesn't give it the slightest bit of credibility mate

IIRC, he said that SH was more talented than AD, but lacked the brains and work ethic to make the most of his ability. FWIW, I saw him kick 5 on debut and wanted to see him get dropped for being a lazy lurker.

By the way, do you reckon the Dees have anyone who is currently (not potentially) a better forward than CoJo?

 

[Trengove_is_God]

Brady Rawlings LOL

Simon Godfrey was a better player than that spud.

And Rawlings won a Best and Fairest at Norf.

Is it true that Melbourne had 5 players in contention for the Bluey Truscott medal last year, with 6 rounds to go? And they all proceeded to tank, in the hope of winning a better medal the next year?

Don't waste your time jacko, these cretins are incapable of digesting anything harder than a Caroline Wilson fluff piece.

The Bluey Truscott medal is the biggest joke award in modern AFL football.

Just have a look at the last 10 winners:

• 2009 Aaron Davey
• 2008 Cameron Bruce
• 2007 James McDonald
• 2006 James McDonald
• 2005 Travis Johnstone
• 2004 Jeff White
• 2003 Russell Robertson
• 2002 David Neitz
• 2001 Adem Yze
• 2000 Shane Woewodin

Woewodin? White? Yze?

LOLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL

Neitz is probably the only bloke that would have gotten a game in a North side.

It's like when there aren't enough starters in a horse race, and they decline to pay a dividend for placegetters ; that's what the Dees should have done with their 'Best & Fairest' (ie 'Least Embarrassing Player') award for the last few years.

Fair enough, Brady R winning two at North underlines that blokes like Harvey & Grant underperformed in those two seasons (and that Laidley loved a defensive player), but Johnstone? Yze? White? Davey? Bruce? McDonald???

Wow. Could you have made a more absurd and laughable statement?

Most sane observers would put Harvey, Simpson & Grant in the 'champion' category.

Ask your Dad if he's been following the Dees long enough to recall what a champion is, perhaps he can explain it to you.

Peter Bell? Premiership player.

Sorry if I'm talking a language you can't understand.

I'm still shaking my head at the idea that a teenage goose who is naive enough to think that 'Trengove Is God' is a sensible user name, thinks he can mock a bloke who won 2 B&Fs at North when they were at their strongest, and actually (IIRC) won one of them in a premiership year, and was one of the best players in the 99 GF. Truly amazing.

7 out of 10 won by AFL premiership players Jacko!!!!!!!

Is it possible that these idiots could ambush themselves any better?

LOLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL

Neitz is probably the only bloke that would have gotten a game in a North side.

Woey - Brownlow Medallist that year. Was a good player for us, and only went shit when he was Collingwoooded.
Yze - Lead the AFL's kick tally for 3 consecutive years.
White - Was a top 3 ruckman for most of his career.

No love for Johnstone? If you'd mentioned Johnno, I'd have agreed with that.

Then of course, there is that hack, Andrew Swallow

The self pwnage is flowing freely tonight.

 

[Trengove_is_God]

LOL, Peter Bell. Im still laughing.


If a Korean dwarf ever wins a Demons Best and Fairest, I am giving the game away.

It's no more unlikely than the idea of an oversized Irishman winning the Brownlow. The fact that you find it amusing goes to show that you are too young to have seen Bell play (at least when he was at North, when he was a vauluable player in a top team), or you a gibbering idiot.

Or both.

 

[Brad Roo]

More damning statistics

North B & F's 2000-2009 = 7 x All Australians

Melbourne B & F's 2000-2009 = 2 x All Australians

 

[wambat]

It's amazing - 1 win which for the Melgorne Wasteland Club is something out of the ordinary, and all the MFB come out in force.

Bunch of fickle gutless supporters.

Yes, but Bell was born in Korea, so his All-Australian award doesn't count, apparently.
