  1. The doping scandal has spawned a whole new generation of ‘victims’ down at Windy Pill. Had noticed it amongst some Essendrug-supporting mates in recent times - they really didn’t dope well with the fallout from the Dank/Hird scandal and believe everyone is against them. The booing on Saturday was unusual for a non-Perth team.
  2. Coincidentally the meal of choice for the dentally-challenged filth supporter
  3. They’ve got a good list but their recent recruiting strategy is exacerbating their immediate defensive problems - they’ve gone and spent big on offensive rebounders who will take time to settle into their side. Ross the boss feels like the obvious candidate for them.
  4. Appears to be a Gosch’s revamp
  5. Firstly, I’m not convinced he is a 50-goal a season player anymore... Secondly, I think they’re going a ‘sum of the parts’ forward line strategy and they believe Weideman has a better chance of bringing the ball to ground. They got Brown because they thought he’d fix our forward line connection but it seems to have fixed itself without him (for the time being).
  6. You are right about their rebound from half back. Not sure ANB is the answer in a lockdown/accountable role. What about Harmes as a defensive half forward? Let the mids go head to head.
  7. I’m not convinced the issues around the ‘noise of affirmation’ is a result of where the umpire is born/lives... I think it is more about experience (and arguably courage). Same problem happens at Kardinia as well. In Qld/NSW the crowds don’t appear to be as rabid.
  8. an explanation/admission from the AFL doesn’t mean much, really. I am more interested in understanding their strategy for umpiring games in Perth and Adelaide. Do they send the most experienced umpires to those games who would have the best chance of blocking the crowd out and umpiring with courage or is it just a raffle every week when they assign umpires to matches?
  9. I attended the loss. That was when Bernie ruffled Danger’s feathers on a tag. In my mind, that was the match where I started believing we weren’t sh#t anymore. I also drank 67 west ends that day so the quality of my thinking was questionable
  10. Let’s enjoy the wins and not panic about the next dog t*rd on the footpath we have to avoid. We’re better than that Demonland (I think).
  11. Witnessed some real-life Royal Parade baiting at the ground yesterday. Seriously-overweight slob in a shirt & tie in the MCC decided to make TMac his bunny for the day. It didn’t end well for old mate. You wouldn’t have wanted to be 3qtr time-party-pie at the function he was attending.
  12. Hope he kicks a bag
  13. They get two byes before a finals series. If injured then rest but resting for resting’s sake doesn’t seem necessary to me.
  14. The filth were pretty confident they had him at the start of the year. They are a rabble. WHAT A TIME TO BE ALIVE
  15. The argument I’d run is that it was a reasonable action given the trajectory of the other player’s head - potentially avoided a more dangerous head clash
  16. Dangerfield would get time if that incident happened this year. They’ve moved the goalposts on anything head high this year.
  17. Go home DreamTeam points, you’re drunk
  18. He had the ball. That helps his argument. The other guy was low, that helps his argument. His elbow was up above the point of his shoulder: that is the only question in all of this
  19. 30+ touches is at a VERY attractive price
  20. Kinda strange inclusion. With BBBrown in I woulda thought they’d like to get some time into TMac on a wing... Less likely to happen with Baker in. Unless Brayshaw just goes straight into the guts today
  21. On one hand you could argue it is hard to blame him - he escaped the club when it really wasn’t a great place to be. On the other hand you could argue he is a Judas. I’m with this hand.
  22. drove past there the other day and there seems to be some monstrous building being constructed where the Colts/baseball pitch is. It looks strange
  23. Agreed, which is why there has been nothing more than the channel 10 story so far. 10 reporter getting the intel is a strange leak but if that is as bad as the leaks are from the club nowadays I am happy.
