stKilda.
bulldogs.
Carlton
melbourne.
North
richmond

None have won flags for 15 years. All have played by the rules for at least 10 years. These clubs have been arguably shafted the most by the expansion clubs draft picks, cost of living allowances and free agency. And financially struggled the most.

They represent a third of the teams in the competition. Yet retain the heartland of support for the game and have rarely been afforded access to better players, deals or conditions than the other clubs.

Is it time for greater support?

Yes.

In your head, in your head they are fighting,
With their tanks and their bombs,
And their bombs and their guns.
In your head, in your head, they are crying...

Us, Carlton and Melbourne have had pretty good access to top talent over the years.  :shh

And did chuckle at Carlton playing by the rules. Cough Juddy cough

I have genuine sympathy for the Bulldogs, they have always just plodded along, never pee and moan, scrap along but never seem to get anywhere, Saints had their chances in recent times but seem to stuff em up, North can burn in a car fire, trying to kick us when we were down, Carltank...stuff me standing... LOL  Melbourne should not exist and I don't think anyone would notice if they just stopped existing next year, it would be for the best.  I can't even hate them properly they are just pathetic.  Carltank, I can always hate them.   So help for the Doggies and Saints, the rest can hock their arses on gray street.

North & Melbourne should just f.o.a.d - no-one would miss them.
