Footy,s greatest injustices

[Legends of 2017]

For Tiger supporters:

1. Neville Crowe's suspension.

John Nicholls will go down in Tiger history as the most reviled character.
Events later were to show how despicable a character Nicholls was.

What is even more despicable was that the AFL rewarded this "creature" with a place in their "Team of the Century".

Never underestimate the power of a VFL/AFL Football Club to silence the legal system. Twice in this case I believe

I'm curious now. Can anyone pm me any info?

 

[tote]

what about the "streaker" during the '82 grandfinal?

we were on a roll unitil she entered the fray - gave the blues time to re-group and the momentum changed immediately

if freeo win todays verdict I'm sure we would have grounds for reversing the '82 GF result - lack of security perhaps

From my earlier post above

Neville Crowe incident sticks to mind when he was set to retire was rob of a premiership. Neville took a swipe at that scum & he faked being hit when you clearly could se he missed by 6 inches. He faked & fell to the ground & allowed him to get suspended to miss the GF.

Anduril, Gaspar held us to ransom like it or not. He was offered a deal with the Eagles.......................

Actually Rayzorwire it was Freo that offered him a big deal.

Actually that is incorrect tote ma man. The streaker came on while the Blues were on a roll (they had kicked 2-3 goals in a row).

And it was later found that Freo were way over the salary cap, and wouldn't have been able to afford him (Not Gas's fault BTW)

Matty Knights getting rubbed out for 2 weeks in 1998 for stiking spinks of geelong. The guy was twice his size and Matty would have needed a stepladder to get anywhere near his head. He had an unblemished 10 year record up to then as well. The fact I had money on him for the Brownlow that year has nothing to do with any bias here ;D
