Hahahaha. First paragraph says "if they beat Port Adelaide tomorrow" then gets carried away from there. Might need to follow the old footy cliche of taking things one week at a time next time ;)
I love the headline "Resurgent West Coast Eagles." So winning 2 games from your last 7 is now called a resurgence. Pffftttttt!!!

How was the vomit-inducing front page story re Jack Darling's baby pain, re missing the birth of his child? He plays footy instead and the WCE PR dept goes into overdrive to write a feel good story about how difficult it was for him. The chip on my shoulder says the corresponding story about a Freo player would be how they have their priorities wrong...

(I'm sure it was still MUCH more painful for the mum anyway... ) Cue outraged slime supporters in three, two, one....

I reckon our enemy up the road has a bit of a rebuild on the cards. So much dead wood, craig vosso has to be held accountable for their strange recruiting and not too sure about simmos coaching ability. Hard times ahead for those chaps.
Bodes well for filling that new stadium next year. Both clubs will probably become financial liabilities due to low crowds :'(

Tarp businesses are licking their lips haha

Just listening to Hodge announce his retirement. Can't help to think what might have been!
I'm just sitting here waiting for everyone to say what a good bloke he is.
He would have spent half his career with us suspended since he wouldn't have had the Victorian media industry on his side and been the beneficiary of said good bloke discount every time he did something.

Would have jumped back to Victoria faster than you could say Trent Croad.

Not real great only having 1 more win than Freo playing Dad's army with a strong flavour of vanilla and soft serve through a lot of the younger players. The team is absolutely nowhere near flag quality, they really need an overhaul.

Totally agree. That overhaul should start with the list manager vozzo.

Shame about JJ resigning our outside game could have been something to see with him , the hills and Bennell
Might have even been enough to cover that KPF we are destined never to get , if Goldylocks missing from the edge of the goal square wasn't a sure sign the footy gods are saying ...yeah...nah...it won't be happening then I don't know what is. I think we may need to try an unconventional approach....a swarm of bees and chaos balls into the 50 perhaps

JJ is a good player, but I am not sure how him bursting from the back half to bomb it on top of the head of our undersized forwards makes us better. Bob Murphy would make our forwards look better. As would Pendlebury or any other great kick. Average kicks makes your forwards look worse.

It is the curse of the prophetic visionary to be forever hacking out paths to enlightenment through the dense overgrown jungle of tradition and ignorance while the mosquito's drain away your life force one bite at a time

Hodgie has seen the writing on the wall, retiring with grace.

Pity others can't realise that their body aint up to it anymore.
He said it is not his body. He said he didn't think it would be fair to play on and take a spot in the side that could go to a younger player.
