  1. + 1 2006 Stevie Armstrong Premiership Player was delisted the year before as he couldn't get a game for us
  2. WYL sometimes it's okay to say your wrong, Frawley has all of them covered and all of them would have struggled in our side, I'll even back Tommy Mac against a lot of them.
  3. Frawley is a better defender than Tarrant, O'Brien, Schoenmakers, Stratton, Dawson & the 2012 Matty Scarlett
  4. WYL you are blinded by your own negativity What you have failed to acknowledge in your posts is the lack of leadership has thrown a lot of our boys in the deep end as far as responsibilty A lot of them would be fine surrounded by stars I also note you conveniently let Jamar and Frawley out of your answer Mattner, Schoenmakers, Duffield, Pearce, Hunt, Mcmahon, Puopolo, Seedsman, Bailey, Stratton, Wright,Bradley, Spurr, Stratton, Simpkin are a few who played finals so far and don't for one minute believe they are better than a lot of players on our list. They play a role in their sides. One day the penny will drop and you will realise it's a solid core group you need of about 8-12. We are about 4/5 players away from that in fact we have some of them who need to get a few more pre seasons into them and more understanding of the game plan
  5. Is it true WYL when you lost your virginity you still remained negative. Your fookin kidding yourself, you talk about none of our players being up to September bar Jones and Clark. Frawley would walk into Hawthorns backline and Collingwoods, Jamar would play in both those sides as well, Grimes, Blease, Trengove (our captain you write off at any given chance) will all be players and the little I have seen of Viney shows he also has the hunger. These 4 would all perform roles in all of the finals teams when surrounded by class players. Put the noose and the sharp objects away FFS
  6. Good post, he has just been out of form and still pushing to 60 goals for the season. I went to the Meth Coast v Pies game a few weeks ago and whilst he was out of form his work rate and desire to get to a contest was phenominal. would be a big asset to any team and Collingwood would be crazy to lose him
  7. To be honest the last two days have restored my confidence, no more tail wagging the dog. The new culture which begun with new leadership is now continuing. Neeld was fair when he came in last season and did not cull players without giving them chances now if you aren't prepared to reach certain standards your out
  8. Yes well done on big noting yourself, I hope they didn't hit it off as you have already outed her as someone who can't keep things to themselves. Thank christ it wasn't anything major the media would have picked up on
  9. Has Matt Rosa signed up with Meth Coast, would be a good get is underated in their side, gut runs and provides a lot of options to his team mates by being able to find space. Gaff and Kerr are explosive and do the occassional hard gut running to provide options but Rosa does it all day, biggest problem would be trying to pry him away from one of the contenders who's window will be open for a few more years. Would take a fair bit of coin
  10. The club was fractured when he arrived he is putting the pieces back together and moving on those who do not wish to give what it takes to get us where we want to be. To Brett while it ended badly this year time catches up with all of us and as it did with Greeny last year it can catch you quickly. For the service you gave the club previously thank you for your efforts. Best of luck to you in the future
  11. Sue the point re loving families is general and I don't want to streotype any indigenous people the same way I believe you should not streotype western society. Everyone is different even the indigenous families differ. I choose not to work as a fly in fly out worker despite the monetary rewards. It would mean I am away from my children for 3 out of 4 weeks. Does that make a Fly in fly out worker different to an indigenous player who leaves his home to play AFL
  12. Why your one who for the last few months has been calling for Neeld to be tough and drop those who don't tow the line. I'm not concerned if they don't like the hard work required to play then you know where the door is. The Freo players have bought in and look at them, the fans were calling for Lyons head earlier in the year. I say to Neeld stick with what you are trying to implement
  13. Mark Hutchings had another strong game on the weekend for West Perth and will be given another chance, Kane Mitchell from Claremont continues to also show a lot
  14. This is not against you Demon Land 7 but I hate this crap, it is a cop out we all get homesick and lonely some of us just do what we have to for the benefit of our families, careers and our future
  15. Don't agree with Strauss, has pit a hell of a lot of work in to get back as quick as he did!
  16. Another lesson learnt and part of the professionalism and end to risk taking. Many have spoken of the bad draft picks and mistakes throughout Demonland but I may have missed something but nobody mentions taking Jurrah over Rockliff, that has proved a mistake. All very well to say if LJ could have got on the field regularly he would have been a star, don't think he had the committment and dedication and that is not meant as a slight on Liam it is part of his background, which none of us can ever understand. I don't care if he plays again I just hope he sorts out his court matter and get on with his life. He was a freak of a footballer and left us with many memories on the highlight reel. I don't think Neeld and the FD will take any future risks recruiting players like this
  17. Olisik give up the acid it is making you paranoid, you are blowing the Darling thing way out, as other have said there were a lot of other factors without conspiracy which resulted in Darling falling down the pecking order.
  18. Look we all know it's been a bad year but to say there have been no positives is insane. Neeld and the FD started the changes this year and it will continue through the off season. Those we we were unsure about who have not performed can be looked upon as positives, they will no longer clog the list and will be replaced by hungry kids or players from other lists. The days of getting a game at this club on reputation are gone, a very small culture change that should have happened years ago Pre season wont be such a shock this year so you know what your going to get when you rock up boys after your break and Neeld will not be kind to anyone turning up with a bad attitude or out of condition. From here on in after the cull this becomes his list and now the heat will be on Neeld
  19. So Maloney can run out games and chase back as well as burst through packs, Lyon asked the same of Ryan Crowley who lost somewhere between 7-10kgs over the off season and has been a great run with player this year
  20. Ash Sampi, Andrew McDougall, Tony Notte don't worry they have had their bad picks as well showed some promise but never realised their potential, Sampi & McDougall both went in the first 5 picks
  21. WTF no we didn't see him play were just guessing, but FFS get over it and while your at it Dusty Martin has been no better than Trenners this year don't fookin kid yourself, we will also see in a month or two what we get for Sculldogs picks.
  22. Black would have been an in betweener for the changing culture. He would have learnt from the likes of Lyon, Viney, Stinga & Stynes and still been around when Danners relied on his own foot soldiers who let him down towards the end. Black would have been a very good player at Melbourne, whilst not having Aker, Voss & Lappin with him he would have been part of an exceptional midfield with Woey & Trapper Black is an absolute pro and would have been good wherever he went
  23. Agree totally boys make them play WAFL, SANFL, VFL while doing apprenticeships, uni or whatever they need to do to pay the bills, then if at 20/21 they get the chance they realise how bad they and that they only get one shot and don't want to give it up. Mark Hutchings, Luke Blackwell, Kane Mitchell have all had a taste and find themselves back in the WAFL, I watch them now and see how hard they are working and the hunger they have to get another shot
