    I don't think we'll test the contract in court this year, more likely that we seek interest from the WA clubs and if he's tradeable, then at least get an agreement with Bobby that is favourable in financial terms, e.g., no cost for future years. If no clubs are interested, then I'd assume we...

    Such a big loss - was a real Pro. Favourite Dennis-ism: When calling Peter Street (Western Bullgods ruck) as he athletically spun around and kicked a goal: like a dancer disguised as a tree

    Can't remember an injury list that brief - interesting there's no mention of Bobby!

    Exactly my reaction - lost Pendles in the first 5 minutes, JDG stuffed after half time and we we're one reasonable free kick to Billy away from being within 6 points early in the last - that non-free kick changed the momentum of the game. The loss of Pendles was significant, I simply don't see...

    manicpie - no one is forcing you to read the posts. If you've got nothing to say, then why not say nothing?

    Agree, I've worked on contracts with more companies than I can remember over the past 35 years - the key rule is that if you need to refer to the contract, you're both in trouble. That said, Bobby's situation is potentially significantly more than a technical breach - on the face of it and from...

    Not sure that anyone here is trying to hurt or hinder Bobby, he's not alone in having personal issues impacting his life - in-fact, if you took a poll then I'd anticipate that based on averages, around 50% of our mature audience has suffered from some sort of significant personal issue - for me...

    I think it's time that Bobby made a statement about what's going on and what his intentions are. Ideally this would be a joint statement with the club and the AFL so that there was clarity regarding how his situation is to be handled and what the future holds. Whilst he's a much loved part of...

    Player Watch Tom Mitchell (Delisted 2025)

    I heard John Longmire say that if there was one footy left in all the world, Tom Mitchell would find it - well done Tom on your short but awesomely impactful time at the Pies. You delivered in spades when it mattered most and will forever stand with the immortals who have been a part of a...

    There needs to be a provision where his absence can be considered a long term injury and we can at least cover for the loss of a list spot.

    Strange that there's no signage/branding from this angle/distance to indicate that you're at the home of the mighty Pies - could do with some black and white stripes rather than the grey and silver

    Strategy around the 23rd man will be interesting - could be that we're not going to play two rucks as some teams look to be doing and rather we'll put time into forwards and backs taking some of the stoppage work to allow Cameron to have a break. If Cameron plays upto 80% game time with a chop...
