Title: 3aw talk about Melbourne merging with us
Post by: one-eyed on April 17, 2008, 08:12:32 PM
Some idiot caller rang up 3aw before saying Melbourne and Richmond are broke and only 400m apart so it's obvious they should merge in the 21st century ::). So Healy and Russell start talking about it for 5 minutes ::). Healy said the name Melbourne Tigers football club was registered in 1991 and if I heard Healy correctly he claimed the RFC considered the idea at the time.

Russell makes stuff up, so it would be hard for Healy not to as well while he's working with him.

First quarter misinformation last Sunday from Russell:

Polak was part of the 3-way trade that saw Fiora go to St Kilda and Black to Freo.
No, Derrrwayne. That was Simmonds.

Shortly after - Mitch Morton was a F/S pick for WC by mistake because his brothers weren't.
No, Derrrwayne. That was the 20 year rule, where Mitch was eligible for his dad playing WAFL but Jarryd and Cale weren't because WC was in the comp for 20+ years when they were drafted.

Broke? Yeah we're just making $1 million profits per year now with no charity from the AFL  :stupid.

I couldn't see Dyer, KB and Neville Crowe at the time supporting a merger especially with the "rah rahs" as Dyer once called them on the footy show.

Ah that's it HT74  :lol. Was that the one where Jack told the story of the time he thought he killed a player he had run through lol? When Jack said he bumped the bloke and sent him up in the air it was beautiful or something like that  ;D.

lol rofl lmao.

Would make my life a hell of a lot easier with the whole of the family on my wife's side being Melbourne supporters. Only problem I see is I don't reckon Melbourne would be able to bring anything to the deal that would even be worth a little MFC on the collar of our uniform like the FFC on the back of the Brisbane jumper. NO supporters, NO money, NO home ground, NO facilities!

LOL LOL LOL LOL!!!!!  :clapping Thanks for the laugh OE.  :thumbsup
