Heraldsun AFL page with poll

Yet another poll...yet another attempt to stir up this ol merger rubbish..

Thing is at the moment more people are saying we SHOULD !!

lets correct that !!! :angry:

 

Voted - get on board people.

I can't believe they let Jackson's opinion in Adelaide turn into a story in Melbourne. Typical of the appalling standard of sports journalism in this city. Fat lazy pricks incapable of finding a real story of their own.

 

Dudley Moore's advertising exec character in the movie Crazy People had been committed to a mental institution as his superiors felt he was starting to lose the plot

During his internment he was looking for inspiration for a new style of honest adds (which was why he got locked up in the first place), so he thought he'd try recruiting the crazy people to help him write them

The crazy residents are asked by Darryl Hannah's character "Who wants to be an add man?" all the crazies put their hands up

"that doesn't prove anything!" Dudley's character says and then asks them the question "Who wants to be a fire truck?" "Me! Me! Oh Pick Me!!!" comes the frenzied reply

I simply think the HeraldSun has uncovered allot of people who will simply put their hand up for anything, or they secretly wish to be fire trucks

If the poll was, do you think North should merge with, insert any of 8-10 clubs here, it'd probably still be over 50%

You can bet certain clubs will want a team to fold or merge in preference to relocating to a certain southern Isle !!

It seems that way and I am trying real hard to take no notice of it. Some of the polls in that paper are just ridiculous.

Lets be take this poll for what it is absolute rubbish. I know if there was a poll Should Collingwood and Essendon merge, or any other teams apart from Melbourne in a poll for mergers i would vote yes.

granted... but the problem for us is whomever are behind this latest barrage of DEE / ROO bashing will take susch a poll..bogus or otherwise and add it to his sling of dubious reasons as to why it ought to be put up for serious discussion.

We know its rubbish..some may see it otherwise

Exactly. If there was a poll for Essendon and Collingwood to merge, all 14 other club supporters would vote for yes.

*YAWN*

Herald Sun poll???

What a load of nonsensical, inflammatory crap! They'll do anything to try and sell a paper... pfffft! :angry:


I reckon you'll get the same - if not worse - skewed results if you had placed a poll of "Should Collingwood merge with Port Power". Don't you think all other 14 club supporters would be voting "YES"?

It would easily end up 80% to %20%.

I would not complain if Eddiewood folded :D

Voted. But what a bunch of horse sh*t it all is! We're the third oldest football club in the world, we ain't going nowhere!

Isn't Wayne Jackson on the board at the Crows?

Its like one of our board members suggesting the Crows and the Power merge. Given the crowds they have had this season that might be a good idea.

send them both back to the SNAFL and problem solved. WHO CARES ABOUT WHAT COMES OUT OF SA

just clear your cookies and vote again, if you want to influence the result. no need to use seperate pc's.

if 10 people voted 20 times that would even the vote up.

We are the oldest club to still be playing at the highest level of competition in our sport. The others have dropped down grades, leagues, competitions... They no longer represent the competition they started in.

It's worth noting.

Thanks Deanox, you're an education.

Voted twice more just to prove you right.

unfortunately we are still just under 200 behind. hopefully someone has some spare time.

    Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

  • GAMEDAY: West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?

  • FEATURE: 1925

    A hundred years ago today, on 2 May 1925, Melbourne kicked off the new season with a 47 point victory over St Kilda to take top place on the VFL ladder after the opening round of the new season.  Top place was a relatively unknown position for the team then known as the “Fuchsias.” They had finished last in 1923 and rose by only one place in the following year although the final home and away round heralded a promise of things to come when they surprised the eventual premiers Essendon. That victory set the stage for more improvement and it came rapidly. In this series, I will tell the story of how the 1925 season unfolded for the Melbourne Football Club and how it made the VFL finals for the first time in a decade on the way to the ultimate triumph a year later.
