Just because you've been delisted doesn't mean you can't play. By that same logic, Jason Porplyzia wouldn't be playing AFL footy. Porplyzia and Ferguson are similar in that both of them were delisted following a horror run with injuries. Mini and Ferg have hardly put a foot wrong this year. At some point they should get another shot at AFL level, and I think it's narrow minded to assume they won't be good enough.


Yeah nah pleasing positive

Private owners aren't playing a popularity contest.
yeah i know, but just giving some perspective on different perceptions of failure.

at the end of the day they are still playing a popularity contest..

have a look at Liverpool, their fans (myself being 1) despise their 2 american owners, the selfish twats are ruining the most successful english club by bickering and failing to provide funds for transfers and backing much loved manager rafa benitez.
Being a soccer lover than I expect bordom is part of your culture....
Maybe try singing/mexican wave/abusing opposition while nothing happens on the pitch for you

Someone said football is not a matter of life, nor death.

It's far more important than those options.

Yes I've heard something like that.....

'football isn't everything -> it's much more than that' :shock:

and being a miserable f***wit must be part of yours.

seriously if you dont like it, don't comment on it, but i am sick of people criticisng soccer, or any other sport for that matter, just because you don't enjoy it doesn't mean others can't.

i used it as an example in my post, if you wish to dispute what i said,go for it but why you have to criticise soccer is beyond me.

you are a tool.

Can we really win a premiership under a coach who blames Sydney in Round 1 and Hawthorn last year for those horrific games when it was clearly our faults?
SainterX you are spot on, the top class sides will always beat this kind of footy
This style worked 2-3 years ago but not now, and who wants to watch that style anyway
