The eagles were essentially a state team when they joined, it was also implied in their originally version of the song.

I heard that they had over 25k signed up at $10 each. Its a sneaky way to get GF tickets, My mate who is a life long tigers supporter in WA, signed up with the giants and got his tigers v GWS grand final ticket through the GWS application as he missed out as. tiger member. Might be an option considering how fast they want the team to succeed.

Swans off to a good start to the year... Pie looking very ordinary 2 weeks in a row.

what is he up too?

Slippery conditions against a well coached side, which is do struggle against. despite that I did tip us to just win so double annoyed. We had our chances early but kicking 1.7 cost us the game. Our forwards were poor and not working hard enough to create opportunities for those bringing the ball in. Also our crumbs don't crumb, never have for some reason. Laurie looked terrible but so did a lot of teammates. Overall a very frustrating ingot of footy. We have time to reset for rd 1.

Thank god for langers… Horrible game but we are only 7 down.

Finally.

Not looking sharpe at the moment, they look like they are rusty in the touch if the footy. Had opportunities l, just need to capitalise on the this qtr. swan got a definite plan going.

Gee I dislike papley…

Only a practice, but great to see some of the changes they have been working on over the summer. The trick is can we maintain that lower flatter kick into the forward line under real pressure? Hope so.

Noooooooo.... really disappointed for him and our team. After his early head knocks he seemed to have put it to bed until the Maynard hit. He's going to be missed as he had at least after 4 good years in him to help our team succeed.

Yes we may drop, as pointed out the end of our season took a lot of things out of the hands of the club with our injuries to the wrong players in numbers we could not cover. Plus IMHO the decision to play T-MAC who couldn't really move. Topped off with some of the worst decision making and kicking in along time. Every club will be looking to improve, so will we, Sounds liked we have a couple of good players to freshen up the list for this year. I assume the club has looked at our weakness and continual to adapt to improve and compete. We have lots of talent and showed we could cover Clarry for long periods. We'll be there about if we don't get a run of bad injuries.

I thought they were on YouTube somewhere.

Actually feel concerned for the kid. The media interest in him worse than Watt's got. He's being the next Nic Nat (I assume cult hero of club) and they are even posting about where he could be getting his coffee etc. Given the decaying state of the senior players and their clubs inability to get them healthy, the attention is on him. I hope he has an amazing support network to deal with it.

Not going to check if its been answered somewhere in the thread. How was Gold Coast able to match their academy players inside the top 20 and we could not?

any last minute deal to rock the AFL world for pick 1?

We are a physically small team compared to many others. Maybe a focus over the off season.

In the end, 15 minutes of effort was not enough.

My god... can they do it

Blood hell.. do we dream. where was this team for the last 8 qtrs?

Do we live in faint hope!

I'm back to my exam marking...thats more fun than this.

short lived...

string of passes and marks... better start

Thank god for Gay.... What [censored] game.
