Banter Round 8: Richmond vs St Kilda's 2018 bnf winner

[THE THIN MAN]

This is a banter thread, not a ridiculous post thread. But who am i to judge? We lost and it was depressing. The win against Geelong was great, as was the win against Sydney the next week. What about when we upset the Cats in 2012 at the G that was awesome.
How about you guys? Got any good finals stories since, i don't know, the Internet was invented?

This makes as much sense as Buckley saying Collingwood have a fully functioning forward line!

Have you guys won a flag since it become the AFL? Can't be bothered googling it.

Nope. Neither have you.

What did you give up for Yarran?

We'll probably pick him up as a rookie at the end of the year.

Is Andrew McLeod for Chris Groom still regarded as the worse trade Fremantle ever made

Somehow last year we got Brad Hill for Chris Mayne. Pretty sure they cancel each other out.

VFL flags are worth double.

When you played oppo teams twice,not the shenanigans of today.

AFL flags by interstate sides are worth triple because of the travel they have to do ... so that means Freo have really got .... oh, still zero.

The final result being 15 points. No GF has been so close since. Maybe you lot should stop focussing on first half scores and worry more about the final score. If you need any help maybe give Carlton a call??

LMAO ... The only stage you got anywhere near the Hawks was three-quarter time but promptly undid any good work by conceding the first three goals of the final quarter, which saw the margin blow out beyond five goals and the final margin reflects nothing more than the Hawks conceding two in junk time

Yes, wonderful flashback to an outstanding moment, I mean REALLY outstanding moment in Fremantle's history. That day you beat Richmond at the MCG, people will still be talking about it in 100 years time. You have so much history to go back and dwell on.


All we have is this:

I can imagine the Dockers DVD ... Fremantle, The Day We Won, 1 DVD set.

Dockers DVD? The high points of Fremantle's history would fit on a tweet.

Beating us on the last kick of the day isn't a bad achievement. But it's not like you beat a side that had won 9 straight and was the premiership favourites on their home ground in front of a one sided crowd. Here is an example of a side doing that you might enjoy, I'm sure some Tigers fans might.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!! That's unfair. They have a rich history worthy of multi pack DVDs much like us with all our premierships. Why, who could forget that MOMENTOUS day they joined the league, after years of lobbying, toil, blood, sweat and tears by their administrators setting up the club, appointing coaches, drafting players and getting ready to compete with the big boys ... and they promptly lost to the Tigers!!!

Not even close, McLeod was a 300 game Norm Smith medal winning dual premiership one club player. Hill will never get close to what McLeod achieved, Mayne vs Groom on the other hand is an even comparison.

Point being what, exactly? Since 2000, there have been closer Grand Finals in 2002, 2005, 2006, 2009, 2010, and 2012. 2013 was the dullest Grand Final in living memory.

Don't belittle the greatest achievement in Freo's history ............... apart from beating us in 2015

Serious question, are any of those vfl games available in colour? just not a fan of black and white t.v.

 

[Ressies runner]

Yeah something about richmond and the number 9 that makes them extra lucky

 

[mellowyellow]

Have you guys won a flag since it become the AFL? Can't be bothered googling it.

And what did you give for this no show ... 16-35?
