Opinion Non-Crows AFL 11

[Cromulant]

He's pissed away his talent and achieved nothing in his sport. He's not a total knob like Tomic, but it's pretty close in terms of being lazy and unprofessional.

Nothing is a bit rich.

One of only 3 people to beat the Big 3, and did so in their prime.

Made a Wimbledon final, 2 Davis Cup Semis when it meant something, Grand Slam winner.

Sure he didn't reach the heights he should have, but you've missed the mark here.

 

[1970crow]

In terms of relevance, Kane has very little outside of 3 states, his opinions hold very little weight, even compared to Nick.

Exactly the same with Leigh Matthews.

Exactly the same with Leigh Matthews.

Leigh has little relevance in the world, hate to break it to you.

In fact his views on football are increasingly irrelevant too

What grand slam did he win? He's a total of 4 career titles, no slams at all. In his chosen sport world he's an absolute nothing.

You're breaking nothing to me, I'm well aware of the international exposure AFL gets. Unfortunately there's not a Ray Gun amongst them, international notoriety is apparently meaningful somehow.

11 career titles actually.

1 Grand Slame doubles title, and is a sought after commentator across the world.

Kane is an expert and very good player in his field.

Kyrios is mediocre in his, but it's a bigger field.

How you compare them is really up to you.

Mediocre ??

OK mate, another swing and a miss from you.

 

[FR0GGY]

In their chosen sport it’s not even close.
Kane has achieved way more than Nick with less talent.

I love my footy, but the sport Kane played isn't relevant to the twitter argument.

Kyrgios at one point was the 13th best player in a sport played all over the world.

Was Kane ever the 13th best player in a game played in 3 states of a small populated country?

Anyone know what this is about ?

People outside of this country have no idea who Kane is

The lucky ones...

They compare well as dropkicks!

Comparing an international sport player to a local is stupid.
The only comparison can be who achieved more.

Comparing an international tennis players achievements to an AFL players achievements

Is the equivalent of comparing an AFL players achievements with a player at your local bridge club

My grandfather played local footy.

752 games and 6 flags, 6 BnFs. Does that make him more of an achiever than Kane ?? I mean if you ask him... then yes.

Anyone else thinks it’s fitting that this shit show is still affiliated with Port. Suits their culture beautifully.

Do we as a club ever had a sponsor go belly up? Don’t think so.

Where does that rate him amongst people in that field?
Kane would be in the top 10% of afl achievements.
Kyrigos? Top 40% maybe?

Kyrigos is obviously blessed with talent but hasn’t achieved those heights - he wouldn’t even he in the all time top 20 of Australian men who have placed tennis.

He could have, would have, should have been tennis player.

No, I’m sure there’s higher leagues than local bridge club.
Both reached the highest level they could.

 

[mcleod at 50 lines it up]

I'm a Kyrgios fan, but I tend to have 300 game AFL players higher on the pecking order than him.

Just a role player, to the point he might not have had enough credibility to calve out any media career.

At a proper club he wouldn't have played so many games, same goes for reilly, douglas and van berlo in the 200 game club for us.

The irony being is that he was so close to being a Crow via Father-Son.

Forgot the previous whipping boy - David McKay.

He trounces over those three with 248 games

Top 10% is a stretch, he'd barely be in the top 10 of his club all told.

And that's of a VERY small pond.
