Norf quietly dumps Glenn "Coward Punch" Archer from its board.

[perplexed]

This is Norf's 1999 Premiership team.

NOTE: Bolded players are those who were better footballers than Glenn Archer. I was also going to highlight players who haven't since become violent convicted criminals but its easier just to say "everyone except Archer, Carey & Shannon Grant".


28 Byron Pickett 12 John Blakey 4 Mick Martyn
15 Winston Abraham 11 Glenn Archer 13 Martin Pike
7 Adam Simpson 26 Peter Bell 6 Shannon Grant
33 Brett Allison 18 Wayne Carey (c) 29 Brent Harvey
24 Craig Sholl 31 Corey McKernan 19 Cameron Mooney
16 Matthew Capuano 34 David King* 10 Anthony Stevens
44 Shannon Motlop 23 Shane Clayton 35 John Longmire 30 Scott Welsh

*Can't bring myself to include David King regardless of how good he was

Surely Martin Pike has been convicted of something by now too?

Sadly you can't get locked up for being the most undeserving 4x Premiership player in history.

 

[perplexed]

A couple of times, and then roles were very much reversed and Richo did as he pleased.

Yes, but what pleased Richo was a blow wave and a facial.

Derp.

 

[captain blood 17]

I have no idea what hamburger helper is, but I remember Arch routinely treating Richo like a junior footy runner from one end of the ground to the other. Good times.

Please, Archer didn’t have the tank to go with him. I remember Richo towelling him up a few times, even when we lost.

You continue to play the fool for the sake of trolling purposes.

My point was that it's probably about time you did something with your life dude.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Ohh the ironing.
Never change Stabby.

Lol melting? Righto kiddo

Good to hear I finally have a stalker, though. Does that mean I have made it on the bay?

Yep you are right up there with old Stabby, congratulations.

Got a 6 month sentence but got out of actually going to jail.

Is that like how Stephen Milne pled guilty to a sex offence and ended up "not convicted"?

Archer was on par with Trent Sporn levels of mediocrity

I'm not seeing too many Norf posters in here defending Glenn Archer's playing record or violent conduct outside football. Which amounts to an admission of defeat he was an overrated player and a shit bloke to boot.

 

[Vikingblood]

We're much better off not bring Bay13 posters' ethnicities into it at all, except in cases like Crobot given his frequent attempts to rub his Slavic heritage in everyone's face.

You mean rubbing his Slavic appendage in his cousin’s face?

 

[Vikingblood]

Why so melty over Arch?
Could it be his complete domination of your embarrassing franchise?
15 wins 5 losses - and complete ownership of 'Richo'. Oh dear!

Tony Modra’s bitch.

 

[perplexed]

Tony Modra’s bitch.

Try again. Modra only won 3 from 12 against North and was Martyn's bitch.

Perplexed is yet to work out that it’s a team game and the results basically hid Archers average performances.

Well hairy isn't a charge I'm about to deny, not that I'm much hairier than average (most mature blokes have a few hairs on their shoulders right?) and still well behind Bigfootburns who has most of the forum covered. (get it, covered?)

Although I have Greek ancestry on one side of the family as I've mentioned before, I don't identify as one and feel extremely little connection to Greece or Greek people. Which may have something to do with counting myself as 100% Australian with little room for any other ethnicity. How silly I must be to have adopted the quaint notion a person should be absolutely loyal to the country in which they were born... definitely not a fashionable trend liable to catch on among immigrant communities anytime soon.

You'll always be a wog to me.

 

[Bleeeeeeeeep]

Glenn Archer is a convicted coward puncher*, you can read about his sorry tale here: https://www.abc.net.au/news/2017-09...er-fined-over-assault-at-junior-match/8862798

Part of me admires Norf for having the nerve to keep this crazed felon on their board another full year despite the justified media pressure to sack him, the rest of me wonders if the real reason they were so slow in "encouraging" him to walk was typical Norf Melbourne incompetence. When a club fails to make money from poker machines you can never assume they'll get anything right!

Not sure if you fully know what a cowards punch is here is an example:

Blasted thuggish Dees kulcha!



If anyone wants a laugh checkout Sonofgod Nakia Cockahead's glorious melts in the mainbored Geelong for the flag in 2019 thread. Apparently every kid on the Handbagger list is an absolute star in the making, just don't expect much in the way of 'evidence' to support these claims.

Sure is a team game. And Arch was the ultimate team player. That's why his team always destroyed your minnow team.
Top bloke too. Hence this tribute thread.
Long live the 'shinboner of the century'.
