The Official 'Lonley AFL Season 2006' Thread

[bono_man2002]

Although its still only Pre-Season Comp (I could say, Sponsership that changes every 2 years Cup) But we're back for another year!!

What a big weekend it was in footy ...how about those Pies ey!

I think its gonna be a good year, and going by last season, its anyones year...well almost anyones.

Interesting to see West Coast toasted last week, although the pre-seaso comp means nothing to how a side will fair in the real thing (see Carlton last season)...

Anyway here's to Footy being back (although I'm missing my Austar muchly already this year...no fox footy for me )

[Canadiens1131]

Ah so Aussie Football League it is.
How are the 'Roos doing? Is Parkerson still quite the sticky wickett?

 

[Tania]

As both of you have not picked the Dockers

(Unfortunately, young Luke McFarlene has sold his house :sob: so no more free No-Dose for him! )

 

[bono_man2002]

I'm already one up in the tipping Angela!

I know its organised, we should have interference tipping!

 

[Angela Harlem]

So I take it the weagles won last night? Our bloody news is useless at anything AFL. It's all rugby stupid league

Well done, bm!
I think I'm going to bomb badly on this round

 

[Arcadion]

Yeah we won last night really wanted that one, just to put the preseason behind us.

Rugby League is superior to AFL in all possible ways

Excuse me, we dont sniff other peoples butts in AFL.

 

[DignityPassesBy]

no but you do run through crate paper and that is also pretty gay ... and he didn't sniff he felt lol

 

[Canadiens1131]

So the AFL is more like a paper chase? I LOVE paper chases Never been in one, just read about them in the Railroad Children, however.

Paper chases

No, I'm talking about scrums...they have them in NRL don't they?

I just dont see the point.......

"Alright, lets drop the ball in the middle, and sniff each others buts till the ball rolls out"

 

[DignityPassesBy]

Ah yes ok then i see what you mean now ... yea we do have scrums but your players are all over each other for most of the game anyway you just don't have designated orgys ... thats right your jelous lol. God when you talk about league like this it really does seem a little queer ... probably why i play soccer lol

 

[Angela Harlem]

*crepe paper. it's more game oriented than a bunch of scantily clad slappers with pompoms.

 

[bono_man2002]

You also rarely see an AFL game get so boring that that a fight has to break out in the crowd.

Go the Pies tonight!

 

[DignityPassesBy]

Shut up i enjoy watching those "scantily clad slappers with pompoms" i think they bring a whole new meaning to the game lol and HAHAHHAHAHAHAHA GO THE BOMBERS (take thay sydney, and more importantly BARRY HALL hhahahahaha)

 

[Angela Harlem]

ooooooh essendon won their round one game!! it must be like winning the final! i love how sydney takes modestly good full forwards from vic teams and makes them superb

 

[bono_man2002]
