And where did that get them?

They merged to make a stronger club. They didn't just dissapear like numerous NRL teams

Crap! Fitzroy are GONE! All that happened was the Koalas changed their nickname just to be nice to them!

Rubbish. There are plenty of Melbourne based lion members. They wear the Lions jumper, sing their song etc..

Gone, huh?

[Striker]

Yeah. That's another club entirely. Fitzroy Reds.

No it's not! The admin of Fitzroy FC never wound up. Brisbane only took over the on field operations, which included the jumper and the name. The admin took over University Reds a few year ago after that team moved into Brunswick Street. They started as sponsors for the Reds before completing the takeover.

Says the guy who thinks the AFL consists of the giants and suns only.

Every time I mention our better memberships, money, crowds etc you bring up 2 brand new teams out of 18.

As I said, the AFL is enjoying one of the best seasons ever. The 2 developing teams at the bottom were always going to struggle for a number of years. We'll still double your crowds despite playing 25% of our games outside our heartland compared to your 10%

Ah Xman? I believe eels bolded 6 basketcase sides who have been copping numerous beltings.

Why didnt you pick that up? Guess the truth is a bitter pill to swallow for you right now eh?

[TLPG]

West Coast and Carlton were copping hidings not that long ago. Where are they now? Give your basketcase argument a rest, KE.

6 basketcases TLPG. It's lopsided to billio!

[TLPG]

No basketcases. Six strugglers.

6 basketcases TLPG. It's lopsided to billio!

there are always struggling teams in every league in every sport. The AFL have a few extra due to recent expansion. We all know why and we all know it will resolve over time. Whats the issue?

Sure. Whatever you say, God.

[TLPG]

Oh boy. Another moron.

[Striker]

Oh boy. A hypocrite. Boo Hoo!

6 teams struggling like they are this year? I dont think thats happened ever. Happy for you to prove us wrong Xman and TLPG.

Nor has either code expanded to 18 teams. Nor has either code expanded to have a minimum of 2 teams in each of the 5 biggests states.

There are reasons which will resolve over time.
