I bet you’re one of those Crows supporters who still boo Dangerfield when he plays in Adelaide.
Typical North fan deflecting their team lost the grand final against the Eagles lmao
No, I commented on a post about North’s player awards that was in an Eagles 2020 Premiers thread.
Meh about an EX eagle player personally I could care less once you leave and play for another sanfl club that player means very little Personally never had an issue with Nutsy or his family and I used to talk to his dad years ago But he’s gone means nothing now

Indeed. Maybe certain Eagles “supporters” on here need to take a look at themselves & show a bit of class & humility in victory. Clearly the best side all year, I would’ve thought that enjoying that would be enough to knock all those chips off of all those shoulders.

With you Spargo. Good banter is no problem. I find most of the NA supporters on this thread the best contributors. I would have Allmond back in a heartbeat. He left for more money and I dont blame him. We were compensated. He achieved a premiership. I always thought Jarrod was AFL material. Win/Win.

True but more to it. Was asked to take a pay cut so the Eagles could pay recruits more than him that were providing less output and effort than he was. North were happy to pay him what he was worth and has been awesome for us. More than paid us back. Not only a class player but a leader and a club man. Would be pretty to easy to suggest our last flag would have still been 1991 if not for him and the Eagles may have had at least one more.

Definately agree with you. Nutsy is a class player with a devastating left foot kick and we were very unhappy to lose him

Talk about walking down an intellectual cul-de-sac. The "class and humility" comment was from a Bays supporter, and endorsed by an Eagles fan. The Grog Squad aren't posting on this site en masse, so why that's at all relevant I do not know. Those who do engage in appropriate banter, to echo goddy11's earlier wise words.
There's some desperately retaliatory Eagles 'supporters' on here who seem more obsessed with North Adelaide than their own club. Very, very strange behaviour, but if that's how you all get through the day after having watched the grand final highlights for the 33rd time, then the best of British luck to each of you.

Get stuffed you bitter loser.
It's pretty hard to get something so simple completely wrong yet you have achieved it.

Ha, far from it. Read my post below from just after the grand final - you may have missed it in the midst of the post-GF euphoria, which is absolutely understandable given the Eagles' emphatic win.
PS You haven't really done much to disprove my original point, despite your clever turn of phrase and rapier wit.
Magellan wrote:Congratulations Eagles. The best side of the 2020 season demonstrated exactly that yesterday afternoon, when it counts the most. An impressive juggernaut that we could not answer once they got into gear in the second quarter, which is where the game was won and lost. They made North look second rate, continually placing us under intense pressure - I reckon we gave away more turnovers than Sarah Lee - and we couldn’t deal with it, often hesitating and making many forced and unforced errors. All 19th player jokes aside, it felt like the Eagles had about 25 players on the field, which is what happens when you’re absolutely dominating a footy match and everything is falling into place. To all associated with footy down at Oval Avenue, take a bow and enjoy the spoils of victory, your spot atop the the brewery chimney has been well earned.
And for that reason, I’m disappointed with the result, but not entirely surprised to be honest. No disgrace in being comfortably beaten by the top side who was the better team on paper and had genuine reasons to make a stand on the biggest stage given previous finals performances (e.g. a fortnight ago, the 2018 prelim, a couple of recent GFs, plus the 2000s vs Centrals). I think its fair to say that Sheedy has gone a long way in removing those monkeys from the club’s back. In the back of my mind I feared that our win in the second semi might somehow backfire, by providing the Eagles with ammunition to prove the footy world wrong (including some Eagles fans on this forum), and I suspect that was at least a contributing factor in yesterday’s result.

Absolutely shocking on the piss though
He must have been happy with the contract presented, because he signed it. He was a Judas and took the 30 pieces of silver in the end.
How many North players received a reduced salary to accommodate Allmond??? How many North players received a reduced salary to accommodate the over the top transfer fee??? Happens everywhere.

I don't really care Ferret. I find it amusing you sound more worried about Jezza than enjoying winning a flag
Maybe the Eagles should have just matched the offer and he might not have left and you guys might not have blown 47 point lead in the prelim and could have won two flags in 3 years.

Please leave old Torrens supporters alone. We have suffered greatly over the years.
