Legends Game

Love watching this every year. Obviously I look out for the Melbourne boys.

Robbo knocked himself trying to take an absolute screamer! Davey could still get a game for us he is still a lethal kick. Love watching my all time favourite player the WIZ Farmer!

Btw Crawf hasn't lost any of his touch. Still a gun.

 

Would be better if they all dressed in clown suits and ran around throwing cream pies and pulling each other's pants down. Terrible match, embarrassing. Just needs canned laughter to complete the cringeworthness. Sorry to rain on your parade Dazz.

Lighten up a bit mate. Once you realise that it's not meant to be a serious game with fast ball movement and good skills, it's actually pretty enjoyable to watch. All just a bit of fun for a good cause

 

I take it Robbo still likes to flip around on the ground after marking attempts to avoid chasing.

Have to agree. Even the commentators were taking the pizz out of Russell Gilbert for doing the same jumper swap gag every year. And it was ironic that Shane Crawford and 1 or 2 others took the fun out of the game by actually playing football. It really was cringeworthy.


The legends match treads a fine line between good fun and farce. I think it’s jumped over into the latter a bit recently.

Not sure why Moonie has to bring the image of pulling mens pants down into the discussion (tells us something about him I suppose) but I do agree with his contention - these games are singularly unfunny.

Where did I say I expected a serious game with fast ball movement? Try not putting words into other's mouths mc.

Good cause, yes. Fun to watch, no. Cringeworthy, definitely.

Trust you to bring smut into the thread. Have a look at your own avatar before casting nasturtiums.


26000 people and great rating suggest it still as popular as ever, maybe even more so.

i liked it, was fun, not everything in life has to be perfect.

Walked past the TV yesterday, number 1 for the team in navy blue (or black or whatever it was) was HUGE!!


Watched it for about 20 minutes. Quite a number of the participants in the game have obviously spent years in good paddocks.

Wasn't putting words in your mouth. Your post just came across as if you thought the game wasn't 'serious' enough so they might as well go to the complete opposite end of the spectrum.

To everyone calling to scrap it thats just ridiculous. Look how much money it raises for prostate cancer. Its a bit of a laugh for 2 hours. I think it was great for someone like the whiz to participate.

I think we can put up with it once a year.

I get it. You weren't putting words into my mouth, but you assumed something I thought which I didn't. Rightio.....

 

Game should be scrapped, just a bunch of old hacks running around.

Let it go. You had your time. Let it go.

Irony.

These blokes are providing entertainment and contributing to a cause at the same time.

I don't dispute the cringe-worthiness of it all but I do manage to look past it and appreciate it for what it is, and meant to be.

  • REPORT: Carlton

    I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

  • CASEY: Carlton

    The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

  • POSTGAME: Carlton

    A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
