    Re: Elliot can't keep his trap shut

    If the AFL did the right thing and didnt shaft teams with stupid stadium deals and made it even it wouldnt be such a struggle for anyone.

      It's a fallacy that only interstaters who dont truly understand the culture of football in Victoria and idiots with a barrow to push like Elliot that Melbourne cant support 9 teams.
      True Twodogs. I suppose in Victoria you must consider rattling a tin can and leaching off the AFL as good economics. Maybe that why your state has been a square wheel in the national economy since the 70's.

        Perhaps you Freo supporters shouldn't be talking about "square wheels" considering your history thus far

        FWIW I didn't think Elliot was saying anything too far off the mark - the AFL clearly wants fewer teams in Victoria, and of the three smallest teams, we are the most likely to survive of the three.

        Again, I'll mention the fact that GC17 don't have a mascot for a reason...

          In effect Jerry do your homework, the AFL actually leaches off us and realized that we werent getting what we were entitled to, so are paying it back in lump sums every year.

            Just ignore Jerry. He just sits back and snipes away at the club and unsuccessfully tries to pick apart what other people go to the effort to write. He never even starts a thread and is no way constructive.

                Harmless jibe? More like annoying bollocks.

                    No mate, you dont.

                    You might know more about what's wrong with the dogs, but, based on all of the comments I've read of yours, you have no idea about them.

                      Which comments are you referring to Happy DAys?

                        Umm....all of them?

                        I think I'm yet to see a positive comment that has added insight to a topic, let alone something with even the slightest glimmer of positivity.

                          SO what idea's of mine dont you like, i wasnt referring the the negativity.


                          I just like to keep everyones feet on the deck. It can get a bit fanatical in here sometimes Eg Griffen will win the brownlow. How about he tries to play consistant footy first then we will see about a brownlow.

                            Hmm youre right. You're just keeping our feet on the deck by dissagreeing with everything any of us ever say in regard to our football club, not thinking that we might actually know what we're talking about, given that, unlike you, we actually support and barrack for the Dogs.

                            Just because we remain a little optimistic about our chances at times, does not mean that it's unwaranted. We were better than at least 75% of the league last year, I think we're entitled to say we might go not-s**thouse in 09!

                            There is one idea of yours that I like however...the "I'll criticise everyone elses opinion and not offer my own". I think I might even use it in regard to your question, especially since you knew full well which ones I was refering to. Shouldn't you be happy, you're being imitated! Now put us all out of our misery, and take your news and views to a Freo forum, please!

                              I second the motion.

                              Probably not a bad idea if we all put jerry on our ignore list so we a) don't have to read his negativity & b) if we don't read it we won't react to it & he might just take a 'heave ho.

                                I'd back in my 5 yo to know more about footy than you.

                                And about the Dogs? Don't make me laugh.

                                I concede you probably know more about Freo than I do.
