Why does the "New Breed" need minders?

[Stronzo]

I really thought they had cleaned up there act, but it seems as though management doesn't think so:

http://www.foxsports.com.au/story/0,8659,23829713-23211,00.html


I guess when you think of it, all the best gangsters have security, it is a necessity with the day to day turf war. You never know when your relationship with the coffin cheaters is going to sour, fortunately the eagles have managed to keep that relationship pretty sweet over the years.


Another issue is people with mobile cameras exposing you for what you really are:

http://goalsandgirls.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2007/03/cousins.bmp

Not good for publicity, not good for the new breed marketing campaign, not good for business.


And given how soft they are when confronted physically on the field, it would only make sense that they would be just as soft off the field. Better to have a security guard there, because Adam Hunter and the rest of the team aren't going to be much use.


Well done Don Barnaba, you have learnt from the errors of Don Goodings' reign.

Because if you're gay you don't require testicles, that's why.

Why wouldn't gays require testicles? You strike me as someone who could give me a very well informed answer to this question.

Probably for the same reason John Howard had security following him around during his morning jog. It sure wasn't to protect members of the public from him.

Good on West Coast I say. We are heading into a day and age where people are becoming stupider and their actions are consequences of this.

Yeah, and as a result of this, you have to have people taking away the evidence. ;)

[huggy_b]

Dont people understand that all the original mess was because of who the Eagles had minding their players in the first place? 98.75% of Perth security is run by bikies or bikie affiliated outfits.

hoss, chops and bushie.

you spent the whole weekend bitching and moaning that WCE supporters have nothing to say about their club and all they do is start threads or turn threads into trolling of Freo.

yet i get to work this morning and one of the first threads i see is (yet another) thread created by one of your fearless leaders trolling West Coast.

so now i'll use the repetitive freo line as a comeback to this thread:

"man you guys suck so hard and you're 1-10 so you have to create a thread about the eagles. you guys are so obsessed man. don't you have anything to say about your own club man. you guys just deflect all the time man."

wah wah wah @#$%ing wah.

:rolleyes:

[Chops_a_must]

To be fair, Stronzo was banned during that time. ;)


And don't worry, we're just minding you.

But look on the bright side.

Imagine all the interferance runs available!

[Parasite]

I guess this is what happens when you have a "New Breed", they start out as babies and have to grow up. Hence the need for babysitters.

[GrantleyBuffalo]

Great thread, Katie Holmes!

Good point, It would be interesting to see where they are sourcing their security from.

This shit thread died a quick and somewhat painless death.

We do have quite a young list, it's true.

In contrast, Fremantle has no need for babysitters but several training staff are kept gainfully employed making sure the players take their meds, have regular afternoon naps and don't soil their incontinence pads.

[Stronzo]

I can see many players really detesting having people following them around all night.

It will be ok for the young blokes, but the older guys will crack the shits. I bet they didn't expect this when they wrote up the "core values".

I wonder who will be first to tell barnaba to stick the core values up his arse.

[western jester]

Maybe they should hire a few Freo boys, to be their minders. After all, we know how "dangerous" they are.

[Stronzo]

We would not want our players hanging out with unsavoury types.

[western jester]

Mmmm... unsavoury.

[Trump]

How do you spell it?

[kane249]

Make sure you keep them away from Rhys Palmer then ;)

It is odd that they would get professionals in when Hunter could just run in and fall on his arse to diffuse almost any situation.

Selwood was himself charged with striking Swan Amon Buchanan. He can take a reprimand and 70.31 demerit points with a guilty plea.


I can't believe that dog got off! :rolleyes:

If they do a good job for us we can give their number to the dockers and they can hire a couple to mind Mark Harvey after docker losses to make sure he doesn't trip over his bottom lip while having tanties at the media. I really like his zen like calmess with the media and his articulate way of dealing with their criticisms. Jeff Farmers wife might be interested in getting one too to be on call after docker losses.

Looks like you really made another great decision with your hiring of Harvey. Didn't even bother interviewing anybody else. It's going really well too. All those fantastic young players you have on your list that you told me about pre-season are leading your team to glory with your 1-9 record. They are going great guns ... in the WAFL. Haha. Like Warnock. The next great ruckman of the AFL, you were telling me before the season. Admit your bad decision and clear the list out and sack Harvey now.

Try bagging our club AFTER you have actually achieved something yourselves.

[Chops_a_must]

Like what? Drugging ourselves out of our brains to win a cup? Yep, success incarnate.

And here's a tip: try barracking for a team BEFORE they become successful.

You'll find you are much less of a front runner that way. :thumbsu:

Just because i joined bigfooty last year does not mean that i started supporting the eagles last year, moron. What a stupid comeback.

Your clubs supporters are the ones who jump on and off bandwagons. Remember the days, not so long ago of crowds of only 20,000 at docker games before the two master salesmen Connolly and Schwab came along and did their Tim Shaw impression and convinced freo supporters that the rabble of a list that their rabble of a club has could win a flag. How gullible. How long before they start jumping off again?

[Stronzo]

Chops, I see you have met 15mm member, hes a bit of a battler and loves a big spiel that goes no where.

[Braun_2_B_Wild]

The minders are only needed whenever a player is forced to go into the suburb of Fremantle for whatever reason.

Here is an example of your average day in Fremantle.

I went to the East vs Souths game last Monday and it was on again in the crowd, apparently a member of the Krakour family was involved.

Mark Harvey could have done with one in Darwin last year;)

It took a while but you've started to reel a few in.

Damn - more work coming up:rolleyes:

My mighty powers of deduction have 07 - 15 at 92. ;)


And B2BW, if you look at my post on the first page, I suspect some of the minders roles are to stop excessive clinching and bringing both men to box.


But who in their right mind would come on here with such an automatically floggable name? Even Coasters would have to be ashamed of such overt front running boastage.

It's not like other Eagles fans want more evidence of this behaviour...

[Chops_a_must]

No surprise there really.... neanderthals. Fremantle really has turned into 1 of the worst dives in Perth... only a matter of time before the inhabitants there start carrying guns as well as knives. Wish we could fence the place off from the rest of Perth and just leave the feral scum to inbreed amongst themselves.

Just on this Keys...

Will these minders be giving advice to Lynch for example, on how to get away from police? And what if... say... purely as a hypothetical ;) that someone is passed out in the back seat at the time, and there isn't enough room for them to fit? Do these minders get to watch any action? In the interest of player safety, is ensuring safe sex a part of their job description?

And are the minders going to have the deal with the ******, the interchange system is? Afterall, now that Sydney have done it, you can have as many on the field as you want, right?

[Keyser Soze]

Don't worry I won't call trump naughty names..

The Freo players could have done with a minder to protect them from Harvey at half time;)

Mayne and Palmer could have done with Pav as a minder, when they were being floored. ;)

[Stronzo]

I wonder if the minders are sub-contractors or paid by the club.

I reckon a good minder could make a hell of a lot of money on a big night, especially on one of those trips abroad.

[Empire_Persian]

It is odd that they would get professionals in when Hunter could just run in and fall on his arse to diffuse almost any situation.

Or maybe we can use Goodes for protection. He could murder all the haters and get away with it. An untouchable body guard, how nifty :thumbsu:

I actually no longer go to Freo at all after I got dragged there once for dinner about 6 months back. Nothing like having gangs of 16 year old aboriginals spitting and threatening people while you are trying to have a decent meal. More of Fremantle at it's best :thumbsu:

You'll have to ask Stronzo he's the one telling the story here, not me.


But all jokes aside, it must be difficult for an AFL player to have a half decent night out these days.

Even just having a few beers and getting a tad rowdy will get your name in the papers ala Richo - you don't even have to do anything wrong anymore.

Not to mention the peanuts who want to have photos taken, get an autograph or tell you what a deadshit you are etc.

No wonder clubs are considering minders to keep an eye on things at times.

[Stronzo]

Keep trying B2BW.

I'm begining to think you need a minder.
