This is so accurate haha

Saw that a few days ago, very good stuff :P

Gotta love people bragging about three premierships tho...*insert pic of sixteen cups"

Anyway going for Freo but have tipped West Coast, so it's a win-win. Going to watch it in a pub with my gf and her mates, obviously wearing my dons scarf...

I'm not trying to be a knob Jukes but it's kind of a pet hate of mine and i'm guessing for a few interstate club supporters
but you should only be counting AFL premierships not VFL premierships. Not sure that many Vic's will agree with me but that's how it should be I reckon. It's the Australian Football League now it's no longer the Victorian Football League.
As I said not trying to be a knob about it (although I do manage well sometimes) but i'd be interested to gauge peoples opinions
on it and how they feel. The way I see it is every cup with VFL stamped on it doesn't count.
Be nice it's only an opinion haha. ;)

Who gives a shower about VFL cups won 80 years ago against a handfull of other teams

AFL flags is what it's all about  8)

Really surprised at the odds for this game - Freo at over $3 seems crazy

Jukes

So we should throw out all of our other premiership cups because they're irrelevant? I don't see any asterisks on our cups because non-vic fans say they're not good.

Basically y'all are saying the careers of guys like Reynolds, Coleman, Whitten, Matthews, Barrassi, etc are irrelevant because they didn't play in the AFL. Throw them out of the hall of fame because they played in an irrelevant era?

If you're going that way, I guess you could say that only the most recent premiership cup is valuable at all because you're the reigning champs - all the others are just worth their weight in silver.

Never once said throw them out or that they are irrelevant, wasn't suggesting that at all. All i'm saying is the majority are VFL premierships not AFL premierships which is the comp now. VFL was the domestic comp, AFL is the national comp. You can keep your cups but they mean shower in a national competition but mean everything from the old domestic comp. There's a big difference.

This has nothing to do with the topic at all get back on topic and take your debate about AFL v VFL elsewhere
Thank you

It's a thread that will disappear into the archives after this weekend mate never to be seen again. The games not on for 5 hours but as you wish.  :(

LOL Jukes, pretty retarded to flaunt the amount of cups you've won against teams that have only been around for 20 odd years

No one is questioning Essendon's history, but your comparison/brag is silly

Anyway, Carn the Eagles!

The EPL only talk about titles won in the "Preimer League" era and then they talk about all time in another sentence. AFL premierships is what count here. Either way Freo still have zero ;)

But who is this Michael Barlow bloke? He seems pretty decent out there (very early days) and is a fwd in fantasy comps. Seems like he might be a decent options for teams ;)
