Talking Footy

I was watching the BBL from Hobart yesterday
& watching the Thunder fumble & bumble around like clowns to their 19th defeat in a row to the Hurricanes

it got me thinking

who is the worst team in Australia
lets put up the 10 worst professional sports teams in this country

NRL .. Parramatta , 2 wooden spoons in a row 17 wins from 72 games in the last 3 years... winning % 24
VFL .. Midgets , 2 wooden spoons in a row , experienced 22 straight losses over 2012/13 , 3 wins total from 44 games in the last 2 years..... winning % 7
VFL .. THuns ... 1 wooden spoon 12 wins from 66 games for the last 3 years .. winning % 19
VFL .. Melb demons... 14 wins from the last 66 games played ..winning % 22
VFL .. Poort Ad ..... 20 wins from the last 66 games played .... winning % 30
VFL .. West Bull ..... 22 wins from the last 66 games ... winning % 33
S15... Western Farce , 2 last placings in Aust conference 12 wins from 54 games overall over the last 3 years ..winning %23
S15... Melb Rebels ..1 last placing in Aust conference , 12 wins from 54 games last 3 years for ..winning % 23
A League .... Melb Heart ... 19 games in a row without a win ... 17 wins in the last 68 games played since 2011 ...winning % 25
BBL ... Thunder .... 2 wooden spoons in a row ..19 losses in a row , 2 wins from 20 games played since 2011.... for a winning % of 10%

so in order

1) Midgets (VFL) ... 7% & the title of Australias worst sporting outfit
2) Thunder(BBL) .... 10%
3) Thuns (VFL) ... 19%
4) Demons (VFL) ... 22%
5) Farce (S15).... 23%
6) Rebels (S15) ... 23%
7) Parramatta (NRL) ... 24%
8) Heart (AL)... 25%
9) Port (VFL) 30%
10 W Bull (VFL ) 33%


wow
lucky for the Thunder eh fumblers
otherwise it would have been the 3 worst sides in a row for your joke of a comp

the worst performed NRL sides other then Parra
were
the Titans 27 Wins from 72 games for 36%
Penrith 28 wins from 72 games for 39%
Raiders 29 wins from 72 games for 40%

& there we have it
the VFL having .............5 .......... of the 10 worst sides in Australian sport over the last 3 years
S15 2
NRL 1
A league 1
BBL 1

undeniable proof of the rock bottom standard this comp is in
the most uneven
unbalanced

uninteresting ... of all Australian professional comps

Well Researched but im sure the inmates at Vlads mental farm will dispute it.

The price of investing in expansion. Whoopee doo

Thanks, that perked me up seeing that the eels aren't the biggest pile of crap running around the Australian sports fields.

Onwards and upwards.

You don't think the NRL paid a price for starting the storm? They were setup to dominate your comp, all bankrolled by the comps owners.

The wanderers, demonstrating what a farce the A league is. You can throw together players and officials and almost win the comp in the first year.

As much as they are a laugh they are about 1,000,000 miles in front of GWS when it comes to setting up a team.

Why send some geriatric old fuck (who Victardians seem to think is some legend) to win over the muticultural population of WS by making racist comments.
The same retread alienated RL fans of the area.

They then leave the oval that was upgraded for them ,& was actually in WS to move to Breakfast point.

Then try to whore games off to Canberra ,which must be South South Very South West Sydney.

Try to market themselves as an alternative to RL for the smaller less physical kids who didn't want to play against far bigger Islander kids.
They were going to achieve this by buying a large Islander RL player ,to appeal to the Islander population of WS..Oxymoron much?
Talk about No Fucking idea .
The whole setup was an abortion from the start.

Sheeds wasn't employed as a marketing exercise, he was employed because he's good at developing a club from a weak position, and is respected as such amongst AFL supporters. Therefore those AFL fans who live in Sydney are more likely to consider the giants a serious proposition especially once the club is established. To suggest the club is an abortion after only 2 seasons is ridiculous. They're building for future seasons, not coming in with an established but artificially manufactured team. The Suns will benefit from this approach in the next few seasons. The fans have a sense of ownership because they believe the side has been locally developed from a bunch of kids, not thrown together for instant success.

Stupid OP relying solely on performance on the field and only a short period of time as well. Incorporate off field performance including financials and watch the AFL clubs improve past many NRL clubs!

:_<> :_<> :_<> :_<>
set up to dominate our comp

you ignorant fumbling twat

they were the remnants of the Hunter Mariners who were dismantled at the end of the Super League War in 1997
an average squad who boomed .... & the Storm have had the most professional scouting set up in Australian sport ever since
they've never signed a super star ... ever
they developed every player they'd ever acquired from the grass roots & turned them into some of the best talent in the game
the amazing thing is the speed & consistency with which the Storm did this

& who gives a fuck who bank rolled them.. News Ltd are a private company & can invest anything they want in what they own
who owns the Midgets & Thuns ?

the fucking VFL .... that's who
& they set the rules that allow their own team to have advantages over the other clubs ..... that is fucking obscene.... utterly disgusting
& anyway
the Storm never got an extra cent to spend on their roster , our salary cap is a compromised joke like the VFLs is
not a penny more then the other 15 teams & when they did try to spend a bit more
well.... we all know what happened there eh


meanwhile we have the Swines .. Thuns & midgets all being given leg ups in the salary cap & draft to be competitive
in the Swines case for 25 fucking years
The Storm didn't need this to be a force
did they

why did the NRL get everything with them .... so right
& the VFL
everything ... so wrong ... with the Thuns & Midgets

Read any Forum & most will say Shoddy was there to market the new club.
Its just that his racist hick way of marketing didn't go too well in Sydney.

& This bit.

I never said that,(although its not far off ).
I said the way they went about setting up the club was an abortion.
& the damage that was done by the racist will take a long time to repair.

No, Dave, the only AFL clubs that MIGHT be in that bottom ten would be GWS, Melbourne and maybe the Bulldogs. Canberra and Cronulla would definitely be in the bottom five in my opinion. Parramatta and Penrith would be down in the bottom 10 as well as probably the Titans. The Melbourne Heart and the Melbourne Rebels would be there too.

You have no clue, Dave. No clue.

S15 2
NRL 1
A league 1
BBL 1

undeniable proof of the rock bottom standard this comp is in
the most uneven
unbalanced

uninteresting ... of all Australian professional comps

1) Midgets (VFL) ... a brand new team full of kids, playing against seasoned big bodies players who in 5 years times AFL coaches that they will be the team to beat. still gets better crowds than the NRl teams based in Western Sydney
2) Thunder(BBL) .... 10%
3) Thuns (VFL) ... 19% almost made the finals, have improved every season, getting bigger crowds than the titans
4) Demons (VFL) ... 22% have still won 10 premierships
5) Farce (S15).... 23%
6) Rebels (S15) ... 23%
7) Parramatta (NRL) ... 24% Giants still get better home crowds
8) Heart (AL)... 25%
9) Port (VFL) 30% played finals last year, won the flag in 2004, still gets better crowds than and NRl side
10 W Bull (VFL ) 33% the team should fold

you for got the worst team in history
crunulla sharks, that bad they cant find a major sponsor, never won any silverware since 1967
Adelaide Rams, folded, where crap kept loosing games and money and no interest
Gold coast titans, nothing in their time in the NRl, even a wooden spoon
Western Reds WA, played 3 years then folded, struggled to win a game
Melbourne storm, purley because a crap team like the rebels have a better crowd attendance record, even on the back of how successful the storm have been
NZ warriors been in the comp since 1995, still havent won a flag
North Qld Cowboys, apart from finishing 3rd once, struggled to make the 8 in nearly every year since their entry 1992
Penrith Panthers, 2 flags since 1966 no fans
South Sydney Rabbitohs, a successful team but where booted from the comp having no fans, aside from several high profile celebrities who brought them back , they have been shit ever since
North Sydney bears, 92 years in the NRL where dropped from the league
Western Magpies, balmain tigers, both merged after 90 years in the NRL, still had no fans so they where forced to merge still cant pull a crowd
Illawarra Steelers, St. George Dragons both merged due to having no fans
South Queensland Crushers 3 years in the NRL won 2 wooden spoons, then booted from the comp
Hunter Mariners booted from the comp after 1 year.

so yes people NRl has had the biggest failures of teams out of all major football codes
