    Every game this round frees about equal. 28-16 Eagles way.

    The last 15 minutes 10-2.

    Well done Dees you beat 21.

    Great effort Dees, back on top.

    This.

    i hate this stadium and it’s self entitled WA supporters.

    How can “professional” umpires be influenced by the baying crowd? How?

    Goddammit Harley. Why? 

    I hope we will continue to be supportive and stay the course. He has made great strides to turn his life around and people will have blips. A back-slide doesn't equate to a lost cause - and I feel for the bloke that he moved to Melbourne for a settled family life and ended up in a hub back in QLD. Yes, I know that the majority of you have been stuck in lockdown as dutiful citizens - it doesn't mean that you can't have empathy for other people's life circumstances. 

    Was involved in a junior club where a young man did a disgusting thing ([censored] on the water bottles), lynch mob wanted him out.

    Point I made was, if you kick him out, there is no support, no learning and resentment. Better to do our job and have a crack at leading and mentoring.

    Not saying he should get off scot free, and he could leave of his own accord, but MFC could show both leadership and. compassion here, especially until all is known about the situation.

    Rain, hail or shine - he gets paid. Whilst under contract it doesnt matter if he plays or not.

    Wonder if Jesse is on a contract with base plus performance (number of games)?

    On top of a long term injury that would add to the anxiety.

  4. 1988 Walked home at 1/2 time, shattered.

    2000 Bombers looked like men against boys, Long and Wallis, with Schwarta the only one to "fly the flag", the rest stood around meekly.

    Grgic on the wing in front of the members shirked a 2 on one contest, he just had to make a contest, and lock the ball in for a bounce, but no, waved his arms and stepped aside.

     Bending down to pick up the ball seems like a real task for him. Looks stiff to me. I think he's always been pretty limited in his agility and movement but he just looks not quite right to me at the moment.

    Agree

    Looks like a back injury from a distance, can’t jump, not attacking the ball on the ground and lacks “turn”

    I'd just about bet my house on him playing somewhere in the ballpark of 8 - 16 games.  It's not about him being the best ruckman in the league and more about the chop out that he will give Max.  Max is an athletic freak for a guy his size, but many of the teams we will play this year will play two against him and he will be shot by Rd 15 if we don't provide some way of giving him a break.

    Preuss is a very different beast to Max (with beast being an appropriate way to describe him), but he can still add heaps of value to the team.  If he can get in there and smash a few bodies around like big Mumford does for GWS, then that would be handy.

    Conversely he has spent quite a few years on an AFL list to accumulate all those 8 games, with Goldstein who was a pretty capable ruck being there as a mentor.  Still rucks do typically take a lot longer to develop and hopefully the change of scenery will do him good.

    Jake Spencer 2.0?

    For families, Sunday 4.40pm and night games are a stinker. 

    Also for country folk who have a long journey home by car or rail.

    And Sunday games make it impossible for anyone from WA to come over for games for the weekend, especially with school age kids.

    Appalling stadium given the $$ spent on it 

    Aisle numbering for seats is kindergarten mistake. 

    Complete shortage of food and drink facilities 

    concourse areas as bad as Subiaco was 

     

    Agree catering set up is not yet up to par.

    Didn't like the look of the hot dogs, thought "Ah ha premium German hot dog - must be a bratwurst with sauerkraut and mustard". 

    Sucked in, same hot dog just with mustard and I think it was about $4 more

    Plenty of beer though, place is a booze barn.

    I though [censored] was pretty good all around. Agree on poor signing though. using asile no bay is misleading as each 'bay' is obviously borded by different aisles. 

    My mate and i paid top dollar for our seast ($190 plus) and were right at the very back of level i. Couldn't believe it but seats were under an overhang, which i knew they would be as i had looked at the virtual ground thingo.

    But i assumed there would be no restriction on viewing.

    Welcome to the Western Australian way of doing things.

    Seat locations

    Our tickets, were for seats on Level 3, Section 353, which was really Level 2, Section 354. Attendant looked askance at us when we mentioned this made no sense, surprised they didn't go with the old "From Victoria are you"  chestnut,  truly bizarre.

    Restricted viewing

    We got talking to some Eagles supporters pre-match. The front row, Level 3 seats sold as "MFC Premium"  are actually cut price Eagles members seats in the regular season as they have the view restricted by glass panels.

    As you state, billions spent on design and construction of a stadium where front row seats have restricted views, and your seat number doesn't actually match where your seat is!!

    Seems they ticketing team "saw us coming" and gypped MFC with the dud seats in the sun with restricted viewing
