Opinion Non-Crows AFL 9

[Scorpus]

Given that WA fans support West Coast or Freo, where would a 3rd team get a decent supporter base?

The same could be said of any club entering anywhere in Australia at this point.

I'm not going to get anyone agreeing with me here, but people have been saying "the game isn't what it used to be" since Adam was a boy.

Everyone looks to the good old days, but it's just nostalgia.

You may not like the increased focus on team defense and discipline, but it's not like we don't have fantastically skilled footballers today, and the average footballer is vastly better than the average footballer of the past.

Isn't this the test cricket is dying guy?

This indeed would be the smart move .....I'm of the belief the AFL Commission is not pre-disposed to making tough calls ....it's developed a public service mentality

smart move would be to give Nth Mel the choice - move to Tassie or hand back your licence

Koch doesn’t control the board, that’s just silly. There’s no mind control ray

The big thing Tredders will have is that he knows footy, most of the board - just like ours - doesn’t. I can’t see who is going to stand up to him on footy matters?

Who’s going to vote with the morning show host over him ?

Ask Gavin Wanganeen what happens when you have a different opinion in a Board Meeting...

Too quick. Thought I deleted it, Saturday arvo beers.

But have a mutual friend, Salisbury North FC junior team mate who Wangas still good mates with.

Kochie treated him like shit and he quit the Board as any different opinion is pointless.


His media career ended too.

I dislike carlton more than collingwood lol.

Given that WA fans support West Coast or Freo, where would a 3rd team get a decent supporter base?

Where did Freo get all their supporters, given that WA was nearly 100% Weagle supporters at the time?

I dislike St Kilda and North Melbourne the most. Both soulles sorry excuses for clubs that add nothing to the competition and it can be argued that even in their prime they still added. They will always be a crapfest off the field even though they may be gifted on field advantages from time to time.

The Swan river is the great divide. Anything south is all Fremantle. Pretty much like the Port Adelaide of Adelaide. A lot of Port fans were Crows fans until Port came in.

The carlton fanbase would be so insufferable if they won the flag. I couldn't inagine living in victoria if it happened.

 

[radiojake]

100% would take a Collingwood flag over a Carlton one every day of the week

Melbourne would be a insufferable place if Carlton won

 

[TubbsFarquhar]

Coach survey would be interesting, I reckon Beveridge would win hands down?

Depends how many Port fans would be in the survey. Hinkley could come out on top on them alone.

Impossible to think a more congested, lower scoring, less free flowing game is superior. A game with less emphasis on individual skill and attainment

No, that's a South African.

Love this from a captian of a sporting team.

The Adelaide 36ers have responded to coach CJ Bruton’s departure with a pair of fiery practice sessions where captain Mitch McCarron accused teammates of “snitching” as interim Scott Ninnis drove home new standards he expects his embattled group to meet. The tumultuous week had NBL champion McCarron launching a withering salvo during Friday morning’s heated practice. “Shut the f**k up, stop f**king bitching,” McCarron roared in vision captured by Seven News. “This is why we’re in this f**king position (second bottom). “Everyone wants to f**king snitch on every other person and throw every other f**king person under the bus, “Train hard, shut the f**k up, get stops, win games, end of story.”

Bro needs to look inward. Culture is a product of other factors.
