This is what respected FB journalist Patrick Smith said about modern day fumbling.

A couple of the best comments:

" so deficient were the skills the game looked like a rejected script from a Charlie Chaplin film. "

"Adelaide are on top of the ladder. Of 12 games played they have lost three. That should not be seen as a badge of brilliance but only that it is recognition of the Crows being the best of a collection of incompetence."

Sounds about right to me. A fumbling mess indeed.
A season this even is pretty much unprecedented in the AFL, and many fans are perplexed

So you agree that the game resembles a rejected script from a Charlie Caplin film. Glad we cleared that up.

So if you moved to the other side of the world and they played a sport called farnarkling and you'd seen it on the news but never took the time to give it nothing more than a cursory interest but then you see that they are playing a game on say Brisbane or Toowoomba or Warwick or Gold Coast etc... wouldn't that spark you interest just a little?

The difference in skill level has become clearly evident once again with the RL player carving up the AFL player on Ninja Warrior.

Yeah he did. I don't put much stock in these type of challenges however it must be said that every time there is one - like Australia's greatest athlete or NRL v AFL boxing the RL boys always completely towel up the mammas boys fumblers. Gotta be something in it.

So another star fumbler ..apparently a Brownpole winner steps out of the insular bubble & fails


Beaten by an average Rugby League player who retired over 3 years ago with a serious neck injury & the AFLol player was still playing this time last year.

You can't make this shit up. They should have Buddy Franklin vs Stephen Hawking next week. It'll be a much closer match up.

For another belly laugh I suggest folks watch Meninga v Jackson on You tube. One of the funniest, saddest biggest thrashings in NRL v AFL history.

Classic!
