    Adam Simpson new WCE coach (now to end of 2019)

    Good points. You would hope the club hasn't sunk so low as to have the board intefering with on field matters. I'd be happy with one more year from Simpson if the current board had a cleanout. Just seems stale.

    Adam Simpson new WCE coach (now to end of 2019)

    Not good signs with Simpson. By the start of year 2, things should be taking shape and its looking the opposite. It seemed strange to me that Sumich pulled out of the WB job. Maybe he has been told that Simpson is unlikely to last long, and the door would be opened to him. I like the fact that...

    Essendon v West Coast, Etihad 4.40pm

    Certainly was a free kick. All we're saying is that a lot more of those calls went against us than for us. 50/50 calls should be given 50/50 to each team, not 90/10.

    Essendon v West Coast, Etihad 4.40pm

    Really, so you support that deliberate out of bounds? Or the non free kick to Shuey that was so obvious even the victorian commentators were bemused, or the call against Hill that ruled out any chance? Look at it logically. Sometimes you win when you don't deserve to. Sometimes you lose when...

    Essendon v West Coast, Etihad 4.40pm

    No, started following the AFL in 1991. Had the fun of seeing the eagles being (as admitted by the AFL) being the team that the umpires made the most mistakes against in every single round of the on year in the 90's. (they only publically reported it once from memory) Statistically a 1 in approx...

    Essendon v West Coast, Etihad 4.40pm

    Wow. These ridicilous decisions are becoming a trend against the WCE, whether critical match changing ones or deciding to apply an unkonwn rule just for the eagles and just this once for the season. Our club needs the give the AFL a spray but they don't seem to care, can't blame the umps if...

    Game Day West Coast vs Essendon @ Etihad 2:40 Saturday

    Glad you like it. As to why? Because our marketing department doesn't seem to see whats in front of them. Absolutely shocking decision not to have that as our main jumper and the vast, vast majority of fans want them back. There is a thread dedicated to it, and there have been petitions...

    vozzo

    Not Happy. People are blaming him for poor recruitment when hes only been in the job for a few years and thats not even his main responsibility. His effectiveness can only be judged after a few more years. But if he does go, target whoever is recruiting at the Lions... just find someone else...

    AFL knock back Gaza humanitarian aid advertising at Adelaide Oval

    Not true. Even the Jews admit that to begin with they took the land by force thousands of years ago becuase they beleived that had a divine right to it. History is littered with such events so it’s nothing out of the ordinary. The only thing out of the ordinary is that we are supporting...

    AFL knock back Gaza humanitarian aid advertising at Adelaide Oval

    To add to that, the majority of Jews today are not Semites, meaning they are not from the original line of Abraham (w). This is especially the case for those Jews that are coming to Palestine. The Semites are the Jews that have lived in Palestine for most of the last 2000 years, along with the...

    AFL knock back Gaza humanitarian aid advertising at Adelaide Oval

    On topic: I have no issue with the AFL declining these adverts. They are an organisation that can do what they want to protect their interests and know that this is a sensitive topic. Plus as someone pointed out in this thread, just looking after itself in the upper echelons of business. Anyone...

    AFL says: venues required to provide prayer rooms (Read OP before replying)

    Re: AFL says: venues required to provide prayer rooms A fair point, but i'm pretty sure the AFL would have done its numbers already. They aren't in the business of losing money...

    AFL says: venues required to provide prayer rooms (Read OP before replying)

    Re: AFL says: venues required to provide prayer rooms Long thread, only got to page 5, but a prayer room for me means attending more games. So in terms of marketing, its a good move. From a financial point of view, it's hard to have any objections to it.

    Footy, Islam and the western suburbs of Sydney

    A Brief History of Time - yes, and studied Physics at uni, but did not finish (got more interested in IT) and it was a double degree. The Origin of Species - half of it, but have probably read more pro/anti evolution material than you. No i wasn't born into faith, quite the opposite. I...

    Footy, Islam and the western suburbs of Sydney

    That's fine if you believe that, you have every right to. I think the point being raised though is if you do believe that to be the case, have you actually done your own research and made up your own mind? Have you read the Quran, thought about it and made your decision? Or are you the same as...

    NAB Rising Star thread

    Well said. I've always thought the criteria was wrong though, and felt that each year in the system should be a deduction of 10-20% from your votes. So if Shuey won it by a vote, but he has been in the system for 3 years, he should lose on that account. But as it is now, Shuey performed better...

    The 2011/12 Trade/Draft/Delist SuperMegaUltraThread!!!

    Re: Sharrod Wellingham Good rumour if true. Rate him very highly, and could not beleive that st kilda turned him down. Would be a better trade than the Chick/Stenglein ones. He has more pace than rosa/stevens, and is tougher than masten/swift. First round draft pick or stevens and maybe a...

    IF YOUR CLUB WAS A PERSON (inspired by the country thread)

    Spot on seysearles. Not sure what WCE_Phil was on about... Zidane is probably the most liked/respected soccer player in the world, with Ronaldinho being second. Sure Zidane has had some indiscretions, but hitting some guy because he insulted your family is hardly a crime...

    Round 16 AFL Rising Star Nomination

    Was really good against the eagles. Put in quite a hard game, i'm impressed. Would prefer Smith though, purely from the perspective of how far back hes come from. He was probably one of the last on the list in terms of expectations for the year. But Christensen was just as good this week.

    Jack Watts - Wow!

    You have a point. It is over the top, as he's an easy target. But Melbourne supporters are a little too over the top in his defence at every negative comment. Perhaps there needs to be a seperate Jack Watts board.

    Jack Watts - Wow!

    The worst thing about Watts is going to be putting up with the Melbourne supporters once he does make it. Always thought he would end up a star, even from his first season. Melbourne have handled him quite well, pushing him at times when his natural instinct may have been to take it easy. If...

    The Eagles - future powerhouse?

    Whether or not they will be a powerhouse is a question, but no pace?? Naitanui - the quickest ruckman in the game Shuey - top 10 at his draft Swift - top 10 at his draft Shepperd - is as quick as shuey and swift Gaff - top few in this years draft Smith - fastest in his draft Masten - is...

    WSYD EXCLUSIVE: Team GWS AFL identity revealed

    Sadly, it's probably in reference to freemasonry, as with most of the new teams recently. Like the rising sun (gold coast), the anchor (freo), the lighting bolt (port), etc...

    masten what's his future?

    Watched him closely at the game last night, and hes got a long way to go. Needs to focus more on playing within a team for the team. Seemed to not take the best sacrificial option, which made it harder for him to have effective disposals. If he had taken the simplest option and let his team...

    Hardest tip for round 3 - Kangaroos vs West Coast

    It was freo supporters that came up as being the chardonnay types in a fan survey a year or two ago. They beat out every other team, not just the eagles. Nice try though

    Hurn..how many weeks

    In regards to Hurn being a dirty player. I was at the derby last year, hurn was playing out of the goalsquare and the dockers were kicking it inside 50. A dockers player was free, had the ball kicked to him and Hurn ran to intercept. He got there a split second late and twisted to avoid...
