Roast The media....*Shakes Head* Part 4

[Janus]

I know I raise the bat when I've reached my 25. Then again, when you're an organisation full of tailenders like Chapman and Smart, a quarter century is an achievement to be celebrated.

When administrators who never even played for the juniors are your first two inductees...you're going to have a bad club.

Running out of legends next time after Tex is included they are going to have to start naming their first year players in the hall of fame just to keep up.

So, they started in 1991 and are celebrating their 25th anniversary in 2015.

Apparently, they're a mathematically challenged bunch at West Lakes.

No wonder they made that clerical error...

What sort of Hall of Fame has members that are all still alive?

NFL Hall Of Fame

 

[GreyPower]

Its their 25th year in the AFL, not 25 years old as a club.....which is probably what you were saying anyway Dinosaur.

It's pretty funny, isn't it. Administrator Bob Hammond gets a player's race, their spiritual leader Max Basheer gets a grandstand.....

While he's a complete tool I feel leaving out Graham Cornes is wrong. He does so much for their club (as much as we hate it).

Would we induct Jack Cahill and Mark Williams, or just Chocco, in ours when we get around to it in 44 years?

It's like a Kim Kardashian biography.

Not sure if serious:

Includes players like Wanganeen, Tredrea, Craig Bradley and Geoff Motley not to mention the other hundred or so inductees that are still kickin.

What sort of Hall of Fame only inducts people that are dead"

Can Big Footy please bring back that box at the bottom of the page where you can see who's viewing each page at that particular moment? I'd love to be able to see which crows are lurking at any given time.

Maybe you misread: what sort of Hall of Fame has members that are ALL still alive?

The Australian Football HOF was established in 1996, after something like 140 years of football in Australia.

But 25 years in?

I guess by this standard, we're a few short years away from the GWS Giants Hall of Fame.

You should feel embarrassed by your obvious lack of reading comprehension skills.

Is Lombardi alive then? Great!

I'd just like to thank peanut pembo for making me change the channel 10 min into the brekkie show this morning , tuning over to JJJ and catching Kane Mitchel on the show followed by "not giving in".

 

[Alberton Proud]

The Cows have a history of pumping up their tall forwards who can pinch hit in the ruck as the missing link to a flag when the reality is they are nothing more than stocking filler plodders that make someone like Chris Dawes look like Wayne Carey. The likes of Evan Hewitt, Brad Moran, Tom Lynch, Ian Perrie, Lawerence Angwin, Angus Graham etc - JJ is just one of many

Trent Potential - even his nick name says it all

Yeah I was gonna include him but he's one of us now!

I stand by my comment.

You celebrate a 25th anniversary after you've completed 25 years, not before.

This "25th season" rubbish is just bullshit and reflects the same stupidity that led the VFL/AFL to celebrate it's "centenary season" in 1996.
