  • Nothing like starting off with a State of Origin team to start with and it still took 6 seasons to win a flag.

  • might need to watch it again mate. The Vics raped us of 16 of our best players in 2 months before we were allowed into the competition. The players were lied to and told the Eagles weren't going to be allowed into the VFL and they would rot in the WAFL if they didn't sign up there and then.

    Shows you how petrified the Vics were... and rightfully so. Even though you stole our best players our 2nd best players were still too good for you.

    When labelling someone as having a less than average intellect it might pay to get the grammar close to correct. "You sir are a idiot."

    Well, you sir are a complete dolt. Nice self pwnage there, moron.

  • @11scottjw  WOW Check yo self b4 u wreck yo self. Mate the VFL did everything to screw us, not help us. You sir are a idiot. Ironic that video above explains everything and you still missed the point. HA HA Funny.

  • god i miss fox footy

  • @qqq2211 In 1985, there were attempts to relocate St. Kilda to Perth. If you read standard economics textbooks and then a AFL/VFLhistory, you will learn how for four decades the VFL:

    - allowed uneconomic clubs to survive with financial aid to Hawthorn and St. Kilda (never profitable since entering the League and monopolising wooden spoons)

    - prevented clubs from covering player and ground costs by enforcing below-market ticket prices rather than allowing clubs to set prices and cover costs

  • Can we get a 2010 highlight video up? Should be a cracker!!! :-P

  • Best team of the 90's

  • @Spocq

    BTW, very eloquent reply. I didn't think chardonnay sipping grandmothers would swear like that. Especially whilst knitting together at the football.

    Meh, 4 flags since '87 > 3 flags since '87
