Backfire 2016 - Year of the Norf?

[BigJoeD_]

The kid can play.

But we deployed the 2nd gear witches hat tactic for most of the game.

We knew that Melb would find a way to stuff it up. Plus the excitement and look on their faces when it dawned that they might win this was so frekin cute.

You seem really bullish about norf's chances this season, and rightfully so according to the OP.

Did you take the $13 on offer this week?

Well, I'll let you hypothesise as to the common denominator

I'll probably be the most unbearable flog going around if we do win it

If we ain't playing finals, nerf ain't winning shit.

Just shows how shit your team is.

Even when we play bad we still beat you. 15 in a row and counting

 

[Northworth]

While I appreciate the warm welcome back I'm beginning to have second thoughts. I came back thinking "surely it would have dawned on them by now, they can't continue with an Essendonesque level of delusion".

Your best players are too old.
Your young players are too shit.
Your midfield only has one gear (aptly described earlier by a Norfolk fan)
Alley and Harper - the great white hopes with speed aren't up to AFL standard
And your captain is, as I pointed out years ago, Daniel Harris mk II.

I've become attached to some of you poor Norf folk over the years and while I will definitely say " I told you so" I won't enjoy it as much as I thought I would a couple years back.

I recall The Ziebull from way back. Trust me, he couldn't count to 15 even with his shoes off.

We go alright for a bunch of old slow useless bastards. But im a bit upset you don't rate harper... we have pinned all of our hopes on him this year

Dw mate you can say i told you so if you want, still heaps to be happy about down our way. We are all drunk on water. Good times

Liked for its forward planning

 

[zackah]

OP likes the drugs. Prelim final specials are our norf.

Norf = new Bullflogs

Except for the extra three premierships.

 

[Northworth]

Kieran Harper is playing for the University Blues this year
which is kind of like playing at Melbourne - except the rest of the competition is at the same standard

 

[NorthernLights]

Kieran Harper > Jesse Hogan


*awaits melts from defensive flogs*

 

[JD Tomahawk]

Norf='16 premiers lock it in

Sadly I agree with this whole post.

 

[Elite Master]

It was in reply to "we've made two premierships since '96".

Premierships are where it's at -
And we've 3 times norfs tally.

Oliver, a kid, made your midfield look second rate. Bring in Bradshaw and Petracca and we will smash you for the next decade.

0 AFL Premierships, and nothing at all since 1964. You guys are still a train wreck of a football club. Nothing has changed alright.

We don't look at birth certificates before a game.

What might save us is I believe this years crop will be much better than previous years crap.

Our midfield has one gear correct, unfortunately we haven't been able to get a super mid from elsewhere, hasn't been through lack of trying. Daniel Wells should he remain fit and is quite young when compared to the rest of our list.

Harper- injuries destroyed any chance he had.

Atley is ok

Swallow makes our other mids look super fast, so that as far as I can tell is a good thing.
Am fairly happy with where we're at. We have a chance and it's great to at least ponder September glory as apposed to probably 12 other clubs that have realised the season is over after 3 rounds.


I have been watching the Cats V * and seriously AFL football has dropped a long way since we decided two more sides were required, somehow we managed to pluck another 70 odd elite footballers out of thin air. Actually make that 85 as half of the * roster has been suspended for drug taking.

We may just Bradbury this shit, who knows.
