The 'Overrated' thread

[-]

EXPENSIVE RESTUARANTS. You pay top dollar for a meal that is generally undersized and no nicer than mums cooking or a standard 15 dollar Cafe meal.

Has my memory failed me or isn't that supposed to say $5 Hyphen?

15 bucks majicy. i had a pizza at bourjornos down the road from the overarted club for 15 bucks.

That is good value. Not 40 bucks at a wanky resturant for a smaller inferior product

NORWOOD FOOTBALL CLUB. Have achieved much success over the years second to Port however are nowhere near as successful or as far ahead of their nearest rivals (North and Sturt) as the average punter thinks.

Bite me. 5 flags since 75 compared to 2 for Sturt and 2 for North. If you want to say 'why since 75' I say to you over the whole journey our success rate in comparision to Sturt in North looks better not worse. Remember that everyone's record except for Centrals this decade is ordinary compared to Port's level of success. Remember we've only been shite since 2003 and Sturt and North haven't won a flag in that period.

Cripes, we beat Sturt every time we played them last year and also won last start against the Roosters when all they had to do was defeat our overrated club to claim the double chance. As for your sex complaints, I'd suggest that you were born a snake handler and you'll die a snake handler.

try 1949 to now

Sturt 8

North 7

Norwood 5

If u wanna go world war 2 to now

Sturt 8

North/Norwood 7.

This the crux of my argument. I conceed Norwood make the finals more than North and Sturt and I have given them credit for this in the past and will do again now. My point is the gulf between Port and Norwood is a lot bigger than gap from Norwood to North and Sturt.

Bringing a in results from the last two years is childish and would expect better from you. Every club has its down periods and I am in the no way hanging Norwood for not making finals for 3 straight years. Credit to Norwood that that is a big drought for them. A 3 year in a row miss for North or Sturt wouldnt be as bigger deal as it is for Norwood.

PS. Have Norwood ever missed 3 consecutive Finals series? Have they missed 4? Cos I reckon they are going to.

For the benefit of those who missed the deleted part of my post.

CONDOMS and ORAL STIMULATION were the two other things I mentioned that were overrated.

The first cos with em ur better off not having it and the second is that it is so rare to find anyone capable of doing a really good job.

Collingwood football club. Has won one premiership in the last 50 years and thinks of itself as the Manchester United of Australian sport.

hell YEAH

They are joke the way they think of themselves. Whats more is they think that the fact we hate them is because they are so good and we are envious. OF WHAT?

Actaully on that note lets add another one.

Chris Tarrent = Over rated forward.

How TF is talking about recent results chidish? You would be hard pressed to explain the logic that doesn't exist in that statement. BTW, Norwood has won as many flags since the war (that is 8, not 7), and has equaled both clubs flag tallies in the last 30 years. But you can continue to give us credit at the same time as you state we are overrated as long as you like, it only further undermines your arguement.

If you want to go all the way back to the immediate pre-war period to fit in our 25 year premiership drought, you might as well go back to scratch and that would mean that Norwood has won as many flags as North and Sturt combined for a hell of a lot less wooden spoons. If you reckon that doesn't constitute a fair gap in performance I suggest you open the other eye. 'Most punters' have it right. Listen and learn.

Childish because its what a little boy would say to his friends. Oh we beat you last game we are better. Anyway thats not really what we are talking about.

I give you credit because you are one of the great football clubs in this state. You are however overrated. How much simpler can I make it. Your success is nowhere near that of Port Adelaide and ahead of North and Sturt but by as much as people think.

You are correct 8 since the war.

Please gentlemen,dont even contemplate comparing your clubs to the Port Adelaide football club,falling short is a certainty.

I fail to see where your argument is based -'er,who is rating Norwood,other than you,and how do you support them being "over-rated",if no one but your good self is involved in the process?

I think,you dont rate them,most football followers in SA would respect them greatly,and this you have trouble understanding.

I respect them greatly as the 2nd most successful club in the comp. They are miles behind 1st but like to think of themselves as close to them. The average bloke in the pub rates them closer to port than they actually are. This is why I think they are overrated.

[Booney]

Hmmm,I fail to see where the next best falls into the over-rated section.I would have thought a Glenelg would be over rated.

I'd hate to see what you'd say about the Redlegs if you didn't respect them! Norwood are further ahead of Sturt and North in terms of premierships than they are behind Port so that means the 3rd and 4th most successfull clubs in league history are friggin miles away! While you are checking out just how far behind Norwood are to Port, check out the Norwood v Port Grand finals head to head stats and Norwood v Port head to head in finals overall. Norwood compare favourably..you know how I found this out..by reading John Wood's History of Port Adelaide that was owned by a Port supporter mate of mine (a mutual friend of ours Booney).

FFS!! Who are you mate, Graham Frigging Cornes??

Id just like to point out since the League was formed Norwood have won 5 wooden spoons to North's 4.

Rove.

His show is basically unwatchable...lame (forced) humour, rubbish guests, just crap essentially.
The low-key version on Nein was okay, but the dumbed down, overhyped version on 10 just reeks.

Damn shame there's no real competition around.

Id agree with that. Glenelg are more overrated than Norwood.

I disagree, I don't know one person that rates Glenelg let alone over rates them.

They've got no supporters, they're going to be bottom in 2006, their history is mediocre or dismal at the very best, if that's over rating them I'd hate to see what under rating them would be!
