2018 VFL Rd 19: Northern Blues vs Coburg

[flyboy77]

I'd actually like to see an AFL Under 19s competition as well.
The draft could be for VFL/State League and any U/19s not happy with their club pathway.
The cost could be subsidised by the AFL, who aren't short a quid.

North built their strong teams of the 1990s off the back of a group of kids who'd been together since their U/19 days.

Amen, surely the $$ are irelevant?

The AFL does more to shoot itself in the foot than any competing code could ever dream of....

Blues up at quarter time and just got another goal. Three goals to Mullett!

Six goals up midway through the 2nd quarter:
Northern Blues 49
Coburg 13

From my lips to God's ears. Coburg kick 2 quick goals.  >

Lead cut down to 3 goals not long before half time.

At Preston. The forecast there was ordinary.

Thanks,  Crash,  Cramer Street ain't fun when it's wet and windy,  that icky black mud and wide wings....thankfully it isn't windy ATM.  Where do Coburg  call home these days?

A 17 point lead.

They won the quarter by a point, after we started well.

Their hone ground is still at Coburg, but they call it Piranha Park these days. Somehow I doubt they know the word 'piranha' does not just refer to carnivorous fish these days. I have heard from a number of sources that 'piranha' is used to represent sex for money in Brasil. Not having been there, I can only go on what I've heard or read. When I first saw it, the implication to me was clear: Coburg was a brothel. And while it tickled my admittedly strange sense of humour, I can't imagine it would have the same effect on the people of Coburg.
