90s or 00s which generation was better?

watch the passing ability of the halves, especially early 90’s, they couldn’t pass to their right let along a spiral to their right. Half the time Wally Lewis would have to stop and pivot anti clockwise to throw a ball to his right with any power.

I disagree with this, they could pass fine to the right. It is true though that they did not spiral the ball probably because it was this old leathery thing (or if it wasnt they grew up on an old leathery ball). But all told they were much better passes in terms of having vision and doing things off the top of the head. Players can barely draw and pass now.

Souths were at their marvellous worst in both decades so IDGAF.

The first half of the 2000's was great, until Storm started their grubby wrestling tactics which eventually became apart of the game.

You’re not wrong the early 2000’s were top shelf. 2005 is one of my favourite years of footy and my team ran last.

It was a great little period where we had great athletes playing what’s in front of them rather than great athletes playing to a structure.

 

[This Year?]

I liked the 00's better cos Saints didn't lose any grand finals that decade.

2000s IMO.

Whenever Joey played
But the 2000's actually

The players right now are twice the athletes they have ever been. I like the 90's for nostalgic reasons but the quality of football was better in the 00's compared to the 90's.
The rule changes of this decade like shoulder charge ban, and the punch rule coupled with the low risk coaching and media scutiny has detracted from the game as a product of entertainment in recent times.

Better athletes doesn’t mean better players. A guy like Daniel Vidot wouldn’t have got near first grade in the early 90s.

90s footy was a far better game to watch for mine than 2000-2010, and beyond. Best decade by far

The 90s and 00s were similar, except in the 90s super teams were dominant and there were some teams making up the numbers. The 00s seemed more even I guess because of the salary cap.

Just saw a YouTube video of 1991. They were tough too. Seen a video of Danny Peacock with a dislocated hip. His leg is fair dinkum facing the other way. Rabs is commenting with an “oh my god” and there was no put on with that reaction. Sickening stuff.

 

[WaznTheGreat]

90s was way better,Sunline,Might and Power,Saintly,Octagonal,Super Impose,Let's Elope,those were the days

 

[Iafeta]

00s had Lonhro and Ethereal though

 

[Don Is Good]

90’s for the quality of the games. But not for my team.

And wtf is going on with the original op’s name? He can’t be serious surely?
