The AFL thread will die without us Melbourne supporters keeping it moving, ironic isn't it.
sook.
it's a grand old flag
it's a high-flying flag
it's the emblem for me and for you
it's the emblem of the team we love
the team of the red and the blue
every heart beats true
for the red and the blue
as we sing this song to you
(whaddawe sing?!)
should old acquaintance be forgot
keep your eye on the red and the blue!!
go dees!
fuck off melbourne.
Worst. Team. Ever.
People were saying the same thing about Hawthorn a few years back, times can change quickly!
university or fremantle. only sides sans premierships.
Doesnt make them the worst team ever - if you want to look at it that way then either St Kilda of Western are the worst ever, they'd have a far worse premierships to years in the league ratio than Freo or Uni.
Not quite really but... Freo and Uni dont make that scale as they've never won a flag, Western have a flag's per years in the league ratio of 1 flag /83 years and the Saints are even worse because they're a foundation club, their flag's to years ration is 1 flag /111 years. Freo have to have a sustained period of mediocrity for the next 70 odd years to be as average the Dogs were in 2008, and 97 years to be as bad as the Saints.
I am very disapointed September has not contributed to this thread.
yr too mathematical for me, hughsie.
Melbourne is very keen on the aboriginal players at this years dratf table, another picked up today in Jurrah
cos we need players who can actually use the football, and know how to find time and space to deliver it to teammates, unlike the majority of our team.
daniel bell, i'm looking directly at you when i'm saying this.
With Paul Wheatley and Brent Maloney in eye/ear shot (OK they have massive kicks, but can't hit targets 20m away)
yep.
What about Jones MacDonald Bruce and Bartram to add to that kicking list??
Go deees!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Re: Jones + Bruce, throwing the ball in any direction and hoping it goes near your foot then watching the thing go 30m upwards and 10m backwards doesnt constitute kicking, it actually shouldn't be legal what they do. - That happened to Jones against North Melbourne last year, I walked out after that happened
I wish McDonald had retired this year, he is a great stalwart of the club, but I see him either a. getting a game because of his rep or b. being overtaken by younger, quicker, more skilful players and spending his time at Sandy ala White and Yze
agreed. it's been sad to see a number of stalwarts go out in less than thrilling manners in the last couple of years as we've entered a rebuilding phase. junior is likely to be another.
bruce's way of dropping the ball to boot is the worst i've seen since my year 9 footy coach tried to teach me how to hold a football in one hand.
I remember Bruce kicked 9 against West Coast once, it was great. He's definitely done something to his action in the last couple of years that's just turned his disposal to shit, even Brad Green who was probably one of the best kicks in the league a few years ago has dropped off the quality of his disposal.
Having said that, if i was Brad Green i'd be unwilling to give the ball to any of my team mates either.
