Why the Dockers deserve to be at the bottom ...


Whispering_Jack

Recommended Posts

I simply cannot believe that the Fremantle players have nothing better to do than resort to these antics - Dockers deny Ku Klux Klan controversy . The club is denying that the offending outfits are Klan uniforms ("Malaxos had simply got his description of the costume wrong") but please give us all a break!

If the Dockers players are focussing on this sort of behaviour, they're in big trouble.

Boy will be boys, but then again Prudes will be prudes

Tell that to the Press and NM and asked them about the implications of such stupidity.

You miss the point if you are blind sided by the issue of being "blown out of proportion".

Mind you if there is even a small prank involving the KKK or such imagery, it just shows a huge hole in the maturity and thinking within the Club.

Happy to wait on the facts but it does no one involved any favours when this sort of stuff hits the press. As usual, the Press will dine out on this one as they do all of them.

Blown out of proportion I think. Nothing wrong here.

Are you serious?

These morons are 0-4, and instead of concentrating on their football, they are pulling stupid stunts? It doesn't matter what they were dresses as, the point is, they are idiots to have embroiled their club in controversy... or perhaps it's a diversion tactic from their terrible on-field performances? :rolleyes:

If I was a Docker supporter I would throw my membership, and several sharp objects, at the club and walk away. Fremantle are just lucky that they have loyal fans and a good financial base. Imagine if they were a Victorian team, they'd be out on their arse in no time.

That club is an embarrassment to our great game!

Bock dishing out the Irish sunglasses ought to be of much greater concern, but even then I think these things should be matters for the courts, not for the AFL.

No doubt, what Bock did is criminal.

However, Bock's behaviour does not reflect on the AFC, just as Sylvia's stupidity is not a reflection on our club.

Given that this Freo thing involves a large number of players just speaks volumes about the state of that club.

Ummm... ok :unsure:

I'm sorry but is Des Headland really in Freo's leadership group? Oh my!

And if you know your players are idiots, why go and make it publicly known on radio?? :o:wacko::unsure::lol:

I will put my house on the fact that we WONT be getting the priority pick this year.

Freo will completely bottom out. (in more ways than one)

What happens if we finish with 4 wins but freo is last?

what pics do we get then?

Another non-issue blown out of proportion by the embarassment that is the Australian media.

It's not a non-issue Y_M, it's massive news.

True.

I rate this up there with the Boxing day tsunami, 9/11, the capture of Saddam Hussein and Chicken-gate.

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,

    GALLANT by KC from Casey

    The world “gallant” is not one that is readily acceptable to losing teams in our game of football so when it was used in the context of the Casey Demons’ loss to Sandringham in yesterday’s match at Casey Fields, it left a bitter taste in the mouth.  The Demons went into the game against the St Kilda affiliated Zebras with the advantage of playing on their home turf (not that this has been a major asset in 2024) and with very little else going in their favour. The Saints have close to a full

    MEANWHILE by Whispering Jack

    … meanwhile, at about the same time that Narrm was putting its feet on the accelerator to obliterate the long-suffering Euro-Yroke combination, I heard someone mention in passing that Kuwarna was leading Waalitj Marawar by a whopping 46 to 1 halfway through the second quarter of their game over in Adelaide. “What is football coming to?” I asked myself.  In front of my eyes, the Demons were smashing it through the midfield, forcing turnovers and getting the footy to their forwards who w
