Options for a lopsided comp

[King-Eliagh]

No you fool, I wouldnt class that as a "bigger" blow out. Holding a team to 0 is indicative of good defence and possibly a poor attacking side but not always. Facts are those sides who've been kept to 0 have won and been competitive in other nrl games. Melbourne? Nuttin yet for them in re to competitiveness, and its not looking like it all season, apart from when they play other basketcases like gws, and gc. Adam read the title of this thread again, we're talking about the comp as a whole. NRL is tops and competitive. AFL is suffering the effects of poor expansion and policy making rich clubs richer and poor clubs poorer. Somethings gotta give.

Great researching there Eels. Yes as I predicted and prophesised last year, the demons, and others, need to be removed from the competition.

Drac there is no comparison you silly git.
how is it prophesied? get your hand of it, its a known fact that Melbourne where going to be shit,
the difference between the NRL and AFL is that the AFL actualy looks after its teams will not let them fall over, (Fitzroy was an exceptio), where the NRL will let a club fold or find new owners, it also not like the NRL doesn't have its own troubles with struggling teams,



Marngrook teams score for missing And its a much higher scoring match naturally i.e. much easier to kick a goal than score a try. This is fact, proven by clear stats whihc one cannot argue against.
:

you are right its easier to score in AFL but still doesn't cover the face that there has been numerous games in the RL this year when a team hasn't scored at all, wouldnt you class that as a bigger blow out!

why would anyone cover their face
they wouldn't be able to see anything ?



poor old adam
you & the english language

like ships in the night ... just passing by

No you fool, I wouldnt class that as a "bigger" blow out. Holding a team to 0 is indicative of good defence and possibly a poor attacking side but not always.

A score of 30 - 0 is a fucking blowout, and there's been plenty of those in the nRL this season already. Storm have already won the premiership, it must be boring having the same team dominate every year. Boring league, boring sport, stupid as fuck fans.

no
not always
if it were 12-0 with 10 to go
in a real scrap of a contest ... & the side with the upper hand skips away with a few lates tries
well the score is hardly indicative of the contest is it knobface ?

but a its unlikely in a game of bumbleball that finishes up with a score of 190 to 40
that the score was 50 to 30 at 3/4 time
now is it

no of course it wouldn't be

unlike the league score
the fumbleathon was over as a contest probably 10 minutes in

this garbage game from south of the murray is bad enough , but when its ova so soon , like many many games are
well its just a turd in a sock
a turd in a sock I tells ya

[Stewie]

There are plenty of games of football where it's a tight contest up until the last quarter when the fittest team prevails and can get a 50 point lead. Wasn't 50 the margin of an nRL game the other night? 50-0, what a blowout.

[King-Eliagh]

yes well said dave.

The results are well known early on in the AFL matches. And might i add to inform our dumb lil cousin stewie that unlike in the NRL, there are several clear cut basketcases in the AFL comp whom we can all point our finger at and say, yes, it's them, they're the ones that are gunna cop a beltin to billio this weekend. And low and behold...it happens...everytime... I picked it allllllll last season for crying out loud...that unless that team plays another basketcaser, they're goin down. And it happened. Everytime, 'cept for when the sun shone out the baskercasers butt and the opposing team had an off day.

Xman when's this thread becoming a sticky, boy!

at the end of the Match, or season all people are going to see are the Final scores, & when a team is beaten 20-0 what are you going to think, a hard fought win, or a drubbing?
AFL is a lot more free scoring game, alot higher scores, we have seen teems Geelong 7 goals against North Melbourne and got up for a win, last weekend its unpredictable, to try and make claims that RL is more superior & even comp is crap

you Rubbish League fans not understand the concept of what Expansion is? how is a new team going to compete with an established team? yes there will be blow outs, but part of establishing new teams is to expand the competition, hence why no one give a crap about it out side Sydney & a small percentage of QLD

I'm sure that the result of the North Melbourne v Geelong match was decided straight away, or the Port v GWS game when the Giants were up by 4 goals at one stage and leading at half time? The only clubs who you can probably rule out a win for each week is Melbourne and GWS, and even putting GWS in that bracket is a stretch. They're much improved, just like the Suns are. =D>

[King-Eliagh]

I'd say I could predict the result of gws and gc, when they're not playing another basketcaser, 95% of the time. What about brissie stewie? They're good too are they? It's quite a shambles.

The same Brisbane that took it right up to last years prelim finalists on Saturday afternoon?

[King-Eliagh]

Alrighty folks. Here is KE's first thoughts for teams to make it in the 2013 AFL basketcase league.

GWS: A true original and perennial basketcaser here folks. A team of pimply faced pre pubescent kids put together with the big boys has always been destined to failure by the AFL. They may well be a team who will forever be a basketcaser until their ultimate demise when the AFL realises they made a shambles with the team and gives em the boot by blaming GWs's 15 years of woeful on field performances and poor crowds rather than their own poor administration and management of a competition and expansion.

Brissie Lions: After their heyday and glory in the early 2000's this poor club has gone straight to the shithouse. Apart from pre season comps where no teams bother trying, they dont look like they're able to do jack diddly squat. I'm unsure of their finances but have an inkling they suffer terribly from that horribly unequal distribution of welath in the AFL.

Melbourne Demons: The deep black hole of AFL heartland. This clubs going nowhere for a long time. Wreaked in controversy and cheating, this club, ironically named after and representing the city referred to as the original AFL Heartland or the "home" of the AFL, is synonymous with all that is wrong with this disastrous organisation called tha AFL... They're a hot chance to take out the basketcasers wooden spoon this year folks. A hot chance!

Gold Coast suns: Who couldnt throw this bunch of misfits in the basketcase league (the BL) even after an early round one win. They've got an ex RL star as their ambassador earning more than most in the team paid handsomely by the AFL to make mistake after mistake out their on the field . They were consistently shite for all of season 2012 and unfortiunately the AFL positioned them in a region dominated by RL. They've got buckleys against AFL teams unless the sun is shining out their buttholes and the AFL team has a shocker. But they might scramble their way to the middle of the basketcase league by end of season 2013.

That's all for now folks. 4 teams. I'll finalise the basketcase league in the coming month or so. But please provide me with your thoughts for basketcasers this year and i'll take your suggestions into account.

Stay tuned ok. Also beaussie told me he's thinking of making a splinter tipping comp once we establish all the basketcasers for 2013. The prize is yet to be determined but I'd suggest Xmans mod badge would be a fair prize for the lucky winner.

Your sincerely,
KE

Hi Folks!

Well round two of the AFL comp is finished and all my basketcasers cited above copped defeats, as predicted. Most copped shocking defeats with Melbourne copping the most shocking walloping I've heard of in the last decade or so. Uggghhh those poor bastards may soon be booted forever from the AFL unless Demetiou and co consider my wise words and develop a second tier competition, aka a basketcase comp.

So does anyone have any thoughts for other basketcasers? Last year port and the western bulldogs were part of the league but im not so sure this year? Lil help anyone?

And any suggestions or thoughts on this rounds matchups in the basketcase league? Noting that coaches and teams arent dumb and dont field their best sides or try so hard against the basketcasers ive gone with a conservative est below. Still worth putting your money on my predictions though folks

Melb are at home up against westcoast - I predict 10goals plus to the westcoast

GWS are at home against StKilda - I predict 9 goals plus to stkilda

And the GC are at home against the Brissie Lions! It's a basketcaser vs a basketcaser something myself and most AFL fans relish...finally a competitive game we all say as we sigh a combined massive sigh. This one's gunna be awesome. I predict Khunt will get two tackles 3 handballs and 4 kicks and the press will rant how good he is. I also predict GC will win this one by 3 goals, shaming brissie deeper into their horrible abyss. The early 2000's seem lifetimes ago to that poor club. Should be great.

Thanks for reading guys and lemme know your thoughts and predictions for additional basketcasers.

Yours Sincerely,
KE

[piesman2011]

Weren't port a basket case last year KE? What about the bulldogs? And you said they couldn't stop being a basket case for a long time. To many inconsistencies with your trolling of late. Poor form. GWS are better then you think, same with Brisbane and goldcoast. Melbourne are looking bad at the moment but this is due to a rift between players and the coach IMO. Your theories are comming apart at the seams. Keep providing the laughs.

Last year port and the western bulldogs were part of the league but im not so sure this year? Lil help anyone?

This Sunday's game against the Crows will be a good indication of where we're at this year.

When did I say port and bulldogs would be bc's for a long time? Please quote me because I think you have misunderstood and misconstrued me here you silly goose. I'm sure i suggested that there'll be a bc league for a long time and that gc and gws will be basketcases for a long time but as for your insinuation I don't think so.

Now unless you can provide something constructive pies I suggest you leave my thread. Good day sir.

Not sure if you said that, but Raiderdave sure as hell did.
