Mega Thread VICBias - Genuine Discussion Part 2

[sr36]

yes Gov and the Eagles are lying- because you say so

I think you covered that

I'm not saying there lying. I believe that they made a ridiculous request and the club and supporter base is so entitled that supporters like you feel aggrieved that the request was scoffed at.

What do you think the AFL are going to say - yep that make sense that he's unfit for the parade but intends to play in a GF. It's just a ridiculous concept.

Who is claiming Gov lied?

People are laughing at you turning a nothing story into a VICBias it only happens to my poor Eagles and wouldn't happen to Collingwood whinge.

Yeah i'm so sure if it was a star Cwood player in the same position the same threats would have been made. Oh look another pig in the sky


classic VFL

oh yeah they 100% would stop a pendles, sidebottom or daicos type playing in a GF because he was receiving medical treatment

Where is your evidence that Collingwood are permitted to have sore players be excused from the GF parade?

Or are you back tracking and it was a ridiculous WA wowsers whinge.

They're trying to bring their fruit flies into the G - Vics don't do that.

Looking like yet another **** VFL grand final nobody asks for.

If only the Interstate sides stopped shitting the bed at home.

Hopefully Brissy can turn it around in the second half.

This hilarious umpires are on the take to get Victorian teams through conspiracy theory really doesn't stand up if you look at the figures. The two teams with the best differentials in the finals have been Adelaide and Gold Coast. Even funnier with West Coast supporters crying about it. Third best differential in AFL history and the number one for home game differential. In fact, if you take out Fitzroy, the teams with the best differential are West Coast and the Western Bulldogs. Seems like having West in your name is more important than which state the team is from.

Maybe have a look at games that are close, and decided by player errors and (yes!) umpiring errors.

Vicbias is such dog shit

Yeah like that game mattered to the AFL, to want Port to win?

Can you think of any reason why?

McRae said he'll be supporting Brisbane next week. Sickening METROBias against the regional teams.

 

[Demonic Ascent]

This weekend showed why all Prelims should be played at the MCG, back to back crowds nearing 100k, unbelievable atmosphere at both games.

It is the mecca of footy. Heresy to suggest the granny should be played anywhere else.

 

[Brasher]

Where's the post about an MCG tennant bombing out in a home final after playing 14 home games?

Or is that reserved for SA teams?

 

[beatnik]

Vicbias is such dog shit

Why are you here?

There’s no doubt it’s a thing, the only question is how badly the non-Victorian sides are disadvantaged

 

[oak79]

Look, when it comes to umpiring, you're probably right. Even the gov parade shenagins is not Vic bias. I don't think there's any Vic bias conspiracy to help Vic teams win in any particular game.

But fixturing - prime time games, WA games based on Vic TV slots, GF location, brownlow location, plus commentor bias & propping up small VFL teams that shouldn't be in a national comp... That's the actual Vic bias

Glib comments aside, Vicbias is real…why did Geelong get a bottom-4 team fixture in the final 8 games for example

But don’t feel the need to answer…we all know why Geelong got an armchair ride

 

[Mr Meow]

Collingwood choked in a home prelim/grand final again, so Dopples will be in to report at how disadvantaged MCG teams actually are.

Probably because Sydney and Port went from top 4 teams to failures and the AFL didn't predict it.

MCG Tennants still need to be good enough. Collingwood weren't good enough.

Sides like Hawthorn and Richmond have been efficient in their MCG finals this century.

Collingwood and Melbourne...not so much.

Brisbane played enough times at the MCG in the last 12 months that it was actually a neutral game, unlucky for Collingwood.

Pies lost to a higher ranked team who are also very familiar at the G, it was the Lions 7th game at the G in last 12 months.

Ground familiarity is important, the Lions are familiar at the G.

 

[Mr Meow]

Likewise Geelong against Hawthorn.

It is typical then that we will be watching a boring game between 2 MCG tenants who know the ground as well as their real home stadium.
