I haven't heard any other group of supporters talk up Hunter like they did.

 

Not even our supporters ☹️
 

Anyways I think it’s psychological. They probably wouldn’t talk him up so much were he not suspended this week. They’re trying to convince themselves that he’s a way bigger out for us than he is, and therefore there’s one less ‘superstar’ to worry about. Delusional [censored]-ers

Not sure I rate Hunter as highly as the Walyalup supporters. 

Hunter is in our best players EASILY

Last week he absolutely was in our best players but personally I don’t think he is critical to our team. I really hope we see Rivers, Bowey or Salem given time on the wing this weekend.

I assume it's Neil Erasmus. Pick 10 in the 2021 draft. Listed as 190cm but he's just a kid, Trac would destroy him.

I also wish luck to anyone trying to rough up Steven May...

Must be the Griffin Logue of this year's game.

I think they're stupid.

Plus they have bigger things to worry about like the name of their home base.

More fun facts about Fred Fanning:

-  His 97 goals that year were the highest of any Melbourne player before or since.

-  The game where he kicked 18 was the last game of the season in 1947.

-  His next game was for Hamilton in the Western District League where he was offered a coaching position for an amount of money four times his VFL pay and Melbourne couldn't/wouldn't match it.

-  He kicked 22 goals in one of his games for Hamilton.

My old man played with him for Hamilton (and against him later when Fanning moved to Coleraine).

Said he was very tough but not as good a footballer as Bill Barham who was father of Bill and Jamie who both played a few games for Melbourne and also Ricky Barham who played alright for Collingwood for many years.

Country football would have put Michael Christian about 5 weeks behind in writing up suspensions if today's rules were in place.

Cockburn Central ?  Is that a real suburb or a medical condition?

Just asking.  Never been to WA.  I' m not trying to outrage anyone.

Needed Chocko’s advice on technique?

I wonder if Fanning was any good at handball?

Someone needs to buy those guys some lubricant, that really must hurt.

It's a real suburb and it kinda suits that's where they train.

 

...It's actually pronounced with a silent ck, except for the purposes of this forum, in which case, I'm happy to forget that.

It's an absolute [censored] hole of a location and not really anywhere near freo haha

With a training ground named like that, Freo supporters should be quiet and remain a small target
