    Opinion Realistically...where's your club finishing and why? (Unbiased edition)

    West Coast will finish stone motherless last. Under no illusions just how unbalanced and bad our list is, consequently we won’t improve on last years effort. Still another two seasons of pain to be endured before we get off the bottom of the ladder. By July the media speculation as to who will...

    West Coast Eagles Priority Pick (2024)

    Don’t want any PP and the Club itself has publicly stated that they don’t support the concept of PP. What’s more the Club did not request such from to the AFL this past draft. The nature of the Competition is cyclical and as such it’s now our turn at the bottom, I have no problem with that...

    Worst player to play in a grand final??

    Even got a Grand Final Medal named after him.

    North Melbourne Priority Pick 2021

    And therein lies the problem, because if they had a collective administrative brain in the first place they wouldn't be in this position now. So whats changed ?

    North Melbourne Priority Pick 2021

    With the Concessions package grabbing the headlines, whats been missed is the revealing of Norths new logo going forward. It's been ratified by the AFL and will appear on all North Melbourne Club merchandise and team apparel as from the start of the next season.

    Vale Kevin 'Cowboy' Neale

    A true character of the game larger than life. Yes he was a physical player but he was also one hell of a footballer equally adept at playing either end of the ground. I had the pleasure of meeting him when i was in my teens, what a personality, but underneath the hype and bravado was a...

    Certified Legendary Thread RIP - Ron Barassi, the passing of a legend

    What an absolute legend. Someone who finger prints and DNA, will forever remain an influential part of the fabric of the history of our great game. In many ways ahead of his time, in demanding a level of professional excellence, like it had never been seen before, a move that has shaped the...

    THE GF. ..WHO TAKES IT OUT THIS YEAR

    I can’t trust Brisbane to not choke in one final at least, lot of front runners in the team, when on song they are very good however they do sh1t the bed to frequently for me so, back on track it’s a three horse race IMO: Collingwood/ Melbourne/ Port - in that order of Likelihood. Collingwood...

    West Coast - time for a rebuild?

    Don’t think you will find too many or even any Eagles posters suggesting that we only need one good draft haul. The rebuild needs 5-6 drafts and two of them need to be very productive = three players from that draft cohort becoming best 22. We are now two draft into a six year draft and trade...

    Best grand final performances to not win a norm smith

    Not quite but he does have four of these, to his name. 2014 - 2016 - 2020 - 2022 Hard to see that ever being topped, four Leon Davis Medals, very difficult to do.

    Coach Rutten sacked - no, really this time. Could the Dodo face extinction too? 🙏🙏

    A very polite and tactful man is Mr Clarkson.

    Coach Rutten sacked - no, really this time. Could the Dodo face extinction too? 🙏🙏

    Watching how the Essendon Board have handled this past week, looks like a re-run of some of the Benny Hill Shows. Must say he looks very much like, an old senile influencer that seems glued to the Club. The Club is resembling a cluster*

    Vale Billy Picken

    Sad news indeed. Was so entertaining to watch and a very talented footballer. I feel so lucky to have been able to watch him live, in many ways his playing style was years ahead of the era he played in. Probably my favourite Magpie player ever. 66 is way too young. Condolences to the Magpie...

    Chris Scott says a virus cost Geelong a grand final berth in 2021

    Chris SCOTT having a whinge and making excuses. Shocked to be hearing that.

    Do you think your team will improve this season?

    Yes and NO ............ hear me out. Yes we will improve but it comes with a caveat. We will improve but so will pretty much every other side, I don't however think we will improve more than most other teams . Of coarse as always we are basing our assumptions on not knowing the extent of...

    Coach Carlton Coach 2022 - with poll

    Lot of scratchings in this race. I guess eventually the finish line will be reached...... might be a horse with no jockey on its back 🐎 .

    Is Steven Wells seriously past it?

    Not entirely sure if Wells is past it, but I have absolutely no doubt that the current Geelong List is well and truely past it.

    Opinion Garry Lyon

    Was sort of undecided who I wanted to win the GF, more so just wanting a good close contest .......... then I read that Garry ****** Lyon would be presenting the Cup to Melbourne if they win ....... that instantaneously changed who I wanted to win the 2021 Premiership. Now firmly in the Dogs...

    So who are we going for in the Grand Final ?

    I don't really care who wins as long as its a good game of football. As a neutral having two absolute crapola Prelims was a real disappointment. If either team is 5-6 goals up at quarter time I will switch it off, as I did with the Port V Doggies game. Just want a good game where the green...

    Essendon 2021

    Well done to the Bombers, back in the finals. Always good to see teams that are in form make the finals. Coming in with some real momentum and the Doggies have every right to feel a bit nervy.

    Preview The rest of Fremantle's 2021 Season

    I don't believe any teams supporters like to see another team be ravaged by injuries. I for one like to watch the best players play and be available to put on the best entertainment. Clearly Fremantle have been decimated by their injuries, sorry to disappoint you but I get no pleasure from...

    Fremantle Under Longmuir

    I don't know why the doom and gloom, there is so much more to like about the Club than dislike at the moment. You are in rebuild and doing it well and going about it in the right way, it is never a quick fix. Just got to get yourselves a couple of quality KPP in the next few drafts and things...

    Roast Club Traitors: the new list.

    You can add Christopher Judus to that list. A Visy Board Environmental Ambassador ...... what a crock of 💩

    Who should be flag favourites after 3 rounds

    After three rounds ......... I would think it's way to early to anoint a leader of the pack just yet. I generally don't even start to get a feel for finals contenders until 6 - 8 rounds have been played.

    Analysis University research on fans' views of racism in the AFL

    :whitecheck: Completed the survey. I must say that having been born and raised in WA, growing up, I was in the same class rooms and played a lot of sport with Indigenous kids, that was just life and the racist bit colour of skin was a non-issue in the sports that I played and in the play yards...
