VFL flags don't count.

Won in the AFL, not a suburban comp, therefore they are completely relevant.

Not a suburban comp huh.

Right cos they didnt play at suburban grounds at all in 1992 did they?

Collingwood, Essendon, Hawthorn, North Melbourne, St Kilda, Carlton, Richmond are all suburbs idiot, does your team play against teams with those names?

Yawn. All flags from 1990 onwards (the AFL no shit???) are counted. Idiot.

But two new team will be joining an existing competition and should at the same time wipe out the entire history of said competition as it will never be the same as it was.

Or it is just when you change the name of the competion that you reset the entire history?

Does that mean that as the AFL has tried to change the name of the sport from Aussie Rules Football to AFL that they are now in fact playing an entierly different sport than they were 5 years ago?

Completely irrelevant that suburban grounds were used in that time period, as the comp was national ever since West Coast and Brisbane joined. Surely it isn't that hard to understand?

Simpleton.
 
Why dont you write to the AFL expressing your views that the names on their most coveted individual awards are outdated and lack credibility

Stuff tradition right

Maybe we can change the medals names on an annual basis?. With the previous years winner the name of the medal?, thats the kind of idea that appeals to folk like you i bet

Shouldn't I be writing to the VFL?

Good idea for the annual name change though.

You call me a simpleton? you seem to think this is some sort of contest between states instead of a contest between clubs, where the clubs are located has no bearing whatsoever on the start date of the league.

Idiot

I agree VFL premierships shouldn't count, or we may as well count every WAFL premiership also

VFL premierships count in the VFL, Sandringham, Casey, Box Hill and a bunch of others fight it out every year. and thats the level of comp the WAFL is.

If you dont like the fact that your club JOINED a league and wasnt involved with starting one then you can petition your club to leave anytime you want, but thanks for the 4million licence fee.
 
VFL premierships count in the VFL.

That's what we've been saying all along. So they can't possibly count in the AFL or they'd be counted twice.

Fremantle may not have been involved in starting the AFL, but plenty of other clubs were. That's why the AFL is a new comp.

Is there some sort of cultural divide here or are you just thick?

Not a new competition but a name change to an existing competition. I'm not sure how many times this needs to be mentioned.

VFL 1989 = AFL 1990

Premierships in both years were won in a competition of equal quality - the premier competition in Australia.

The SANFL and WAFL were below the VFL at the time and they are only equal with the VFL of today.

I'm not sure either. How many times has it been mentioned so far?

Can you link me to a thread on it, or is that beyond the skill level of a carlton supporter, like quoting correctly?
 
Its like he's shouting, but large font isn't shouting, all capitals is shouting.

Do you think he tries to win schoolyard arguments about how soft Jack Watts is by shouting?

A very strange chap indeed.

Poor guy doesn't realise that an Interweb debate is lost if you have to revert to large font.

I'm sure he considers Jack Watts an Adonis as well, the kids delusional.
