You suggested a certain player had another good game I take it that your comment was quoted in the West. Don't believe all you read in the West.
I have never heard him referred to as that. Indeed it is about as far from accurate as you could get with the usual criticism that he hoofs it long and without looking. You are right about him not stepping up, he has been ultra consistent over 250 games and his first two games this year fit that mould.
Where has he said that he doesn't want to play for Peel?
Yes he was dropped to make way for younger players, which I'm OK with. My point was that he wasn't in our worst 6 players over the first 2 rounds.Well he was dropped, so I don't think he did that well according to the coachesI think most have valid criticism of Danyle - his inside 50 entries. Did you see how improved the ratio of shots on goal to inside 50 entries was last week? I hope he has to go back to Peel to work on that because it's very important. All the hard work winning the ball and transitioning to get an i50 entry can not only be undone with poor i50 delivery but can hurt you majorly on the rebound - like both Geelong and Port did against us in Rds 1 & 2. If he comes back in without any WAFL time I'll personally be disappointed (the only exception being due to an injury).

):I was looking through the player profiles and Q&As to read about the new players and decided to compile a list of who supported what club as a kid:
West Coast (AKA s**t Blokes
Ballantyne
Brad Hill
Hughes
Fremantle (AKA Good Blokes
Bennell
Griffin
Collingwood:
Crozier
Geelong:
Darcy
Walters
Hawthorn:
Dawson
Richmond:
Fyfe
Weller
Carlton:
Ibbotson
St Kilda:
Logue
Suban
Tucker
Essendon:
Danyle Pearce
Sheridan
For the rest of them, they don't have a Q&A section or they didn't put in that question.
Few more years and Lyon will be getting the hang of helping players develop.
No wonder he's so sure on his feet, looks like he's got suction cups on his toes.
Better late than never...
Bloody good recruiting then. Being able to pick players who can develop themselves.
The picks were so bad the only way was up.
As was MJ. He used to go to Freo games as a youngster with his late father. He used to comment that it was a childhood memory he treasured of going to the footy to watch the Dockers with his dad, who died quite young from a heart attack I think.
Lachie Neale was a Port supporter - there's a photo of him as a kid in a Port jumper floating around the internet.
Edit: Or maybe it's this I was thinking about - the photo of him in the Port shirt he used to wear as a kid to took when he went home one time . Think he put it on his instagram as a piss-take!
At the grand final breakfast I went to, Gawn was there to chat and get his photo taken with the fans and do an on stage interview. Gawn was the biggest bloke I have had my photo taken with, but anyway, during the interview he said right in front of everybody that he liked a smoke. So there's one you can add to your claim. Um also mundy was doing the same kind of thing at the breakfast. I touched him and he said I was allowed but he cracked that smile. When mundy went up for his onstage, the first thing they said to him was thanks for dressing up because mundy was wearing a knitted jumper.
Yeah I liked those drummers but as you say get the thing synched.
Actually I think if the crowd chanted E A G E freo dockers and get the drums going. It would be great cos the drummers wouldn't be just performing but they'd feel part of something greater than themselves. I think it should be onus of the cheer squad to learn this 4 note chant. To take us back to out roots.
Nah gawny's too hip to call the great medicinal herb such a thing.
We know that Crozier's capable of winning Mark of Eternity, so that's what I expect of him this week
