Just waiting for Kanes Cornes to come along and say he's stunned by how ugly North's B&F is.

"What an indictment on a footy club where an 18 year old kid in his first year wins the F&B. Liam Shiels had to be dragged out of retirement. Jack Ziebell is cooked and retired and Tarrant Thomas finished 6th after playing only 12 games.
What an embarrassing top 10".

Nah, don't think so.

Wasn't zurhaar out for the season before the bye?

You know, I woke up this morning happy to see either Brisbane or the Giants win a premiership.

A few minutes of reading this thread and now I'm all aboard the Orange Express.

None of us forget, but neither did we talked ourselves or our history up when we were down. This is really the first year where there's a sense that we're in it to win it, on our board. (admittedly I wasn't around for our 3 peat and post 3 peat period, so I don't know what our board was like then).

My post was squarely aimed at the West Coast board, because there was still a sense of entitlement on here during the early part of the season, mainly based around comments that West Coast won't be down the bottom long, and posters here referring to West Coasts history of never being down long and always rebuilding quickly, because "we're West Coast".

I've mentioned before that all Club boards have their own "feel" to them. Eg. Richmond's is rabid, North's has a persecution complex, and West Coast's has a sense of blue blood entitlement.

Don't get me wrong, I like the West Coast board in general. There's good banter and wit here. Posters a mostly polite and accommodating of interlopers, but it takes a bit of getting used to the sense of entitlement here that pervades some topics/discussion.

What is the feel of the Lions board?

[UseR2006]

How the * does Nick Larkey not win North's B&F.....

Should request a trade just to piss them off.

What is the feel of the Lions board?

A little bit laid back, a little bit intellectual, a little bit red neck. Sadly we’re not as welcoming to oppo supporters.

 

[Wedgetailed Westerner]

The Port board is indeed an entertaining read at the moment:

Same, GWS all the way.
Brisbane already had their 3-peat. It's enough.

 

[bombard]

Imagine the fun that can be had with the purples if GWS gets one before them.

 

[Lia]

I still like you briztoon

So Bob Katter = Queensland? Just like I always suspected. Let a thousand blossoms bloom kents.

 

[MrWoollie]

GWS all the way. Yes, please.
Brisbane easily choice two.

Then daylight.
If it's a Coll/Carlton GF, can we just radiation scare the MCG and not bother to re-schedule?
Could be worse I suppose. Could be Essendon vs. Freo.

Yep, Brisbane board in a nutshell:

We aren’t either but some people don’t know how to take a hint.

britzoon that kid at school on the low end of spectrum that eats his boogers in class and attaches himself to your friendship group despite never being asked to. No one ever outright tells him to **** off coz you and your mates aren't complete campaigners and kinda feel sorry for him, despite his tendency to cross the line with being unintentionally rude in regards to people's appearances, family financial situation and other social no-go areas.

Old arrogant campaigner, someone specifically asked for me?

 

[Ochre]

If I had a penny for every time Freo were involved in one of Carlton's greatest moments in the past decade, I'd have two pennies, which isn't a lot but still weird that I have two.

Im still chuckling about port and the dees straight exits.

 

[Ochre]

There's entitled, and then there's the Bears working with the AFL behind Fitzroy's back to ensure the North Melbourne-Fitzroy merger failed so that Brisbane could steal a 100 year old clubs identity because they wanted it for themselves

 

[RookiePick]

I didn't pull this out of nowhere. That comment is based on actual discussions on here where that was repeated word for word by a couple of different posters, multiple times. Not randoms either. Long time, respected Eagles posters who have a long history in the draft and trade discussions.

You, as a member of the West Coast board, may not pick up on such impressions, but visitors do.

Big swinging dicks can be intimidating to other, "average" boards.
