Gough Suppressant posted:At one point Melbourne was the second most populous city in the British empire after London. Less than 3 decades after it was founded, too. Volkerball posted:How split up is the fan base in Melbourne? Like if you go to Hawthorn is it mostly Hawks fans, Essendon Dons fans, North Norf fans, etc? Or is everybody just spread all over the city, with a bunch of people bandwagoning whichever team is good? Now that the suburban grounds have all gone, less so. For the people in the inner suburbs you'd go for the team with their ground closest to you, so you could walk or catch a tram to the game every Saturday. Now that they are only training areas and not used for games (and that the majority of people live out in the middle of nowhere suburbia) it is about who you like or whatever team your dad grew up supporting. drunkill fucked around with this message at 05:35 on Feb 28, 2015 |

I'm happy with the result. Jones and Jackesh were decent. Tutt put in a good performance and Everitt will be a great anchor down back Warnock is still dumb, Judd is still a trooper and wants a bigger butt. drunkill fucked around with this message at 09:02 on Mar 15, 2015 |

The Deadly Hume posted:I dunno, a lot of clubs try and make their players do some kind of study or vocational poo poo, even if it's just to keep them out of trouble and to give them something to do that isn't footyfootyfootyfooty. (Usually the ones who were actually good at school as well as footy.) I know, I was meaning more secondary education. Since that is when things start to fall into place for them and then bring in alcohol when they are what, 15+ with footyclub mates and such. Not all players, of course but man, if I was a footy player I wouldn't be going out at night risking an incident during the season, then again, I am a goon :v

Decent presentation, now that this is our home ground. The new animated screens allow for some cool things. They've 'renamed' the stands and put on a white picket fence so it is like how Princes Park was. Carlton banner mentioned tigers fans microwaving memberships 7 minutes, bring it on.

4 blood rules in the first quarter, chapman getting a concussion test after starting a fight with Yarran and getting punched in the face. Nobody can kick straight. Another draw like the last two times carl & the drugs met?

The Deadly Hume posted:By the time the AFL takes over Docklands (either at the end of the original contract or under an accelerated buy-out) they'll have to think about some kind of refurbishment. Still, the sooner it happens for the clubs that are stuck there, the better. They'll build a new stadium nearby at the new e-gate precinct closer to norfmelbourne station. The land docklands stadium is on is too valuable, worth 2 billion easy even if a third of it was kept as parkland. It won't remain after 2030.
