Back by popular demand. However...

There has been some aggro from publishers of articles in recent months about sites that copypasta their content onto other sites, particularly the paywalled ones, which could lead to fines and whanot for those that do it. Apparently there are copywrite laws for these things. As a result we can no longer have full articles reposted here, so if you come across something then please refrain from nabbing the whole thing and just post the link. Quoting a paragraph or two and linking the source is fine however, just don't get greedy.

Here's the updated site-wide rule: https://www.bigfooty.com/forum/threads/please-read-re-copyright-posting-newspaper-articles.1389553/

Here's an example of what you can do:

"If West Coast was the gold standard for how to operate, then Fremantle's arrival into the AFL in 1995 could be viewed as a series of cautionary tales.

Despite eight wins in that debut season, a series of poor recruiting choices meant they didn't play their first final until 2003."

If they believe that us not making finals until 2003 was solely due to "a series of poor recruiting choices" then I have a bridge to sell them.


Thanks for your understanding.
 
“Mate, we need a song to celebrate our Freo Dockers.”

“What kind of song should we write?”

“Well, we both have mullets and mo’s that went out of style 30 years ago everywhere in the world except Australia, so how about a song that’s super retro and sounds like it was made by a shi**y 80’s hair band?”

“I knew kept you around for a reason ya stupid c***. That’s brilliant! Let’s fu**in do it!”

“It’s time to pull on the purple, ya nuffies!!”

I love it. Of course, last time I asked someone to pull on the purple I got thrown out.

If that isn't a perfect summation of following Freo, I don't know what is.
Gonna ‘fess up. I didn’t / couldn’t listen past the music, so will give it another crack. Here goes…

Edit: hmmmm. Just realised Byron wrote the lyrics. Good work. But the song still sucks. Reminds me of bad 80s rock with a dash of V Capri, and the vocalist needs to lose the American accent.

But maybe I’m just picky.

People shit on Champion Data but they use and come up with stats that the clubs ask them for. They aren't just coming up with random bullshit just for shits and giggles. Coaches will ask for a particular aspect of the game to be measured (eg. the pressure rating) and Champion Data have to come up with a way to measure it. It may seem useless to us and Hoyne comes across as a bit sanctimonious on SEN but the stats are there for a reason.
Is this how we arrived at Squiggle...?! :think:

If Josh Carr rates him (not that I trust the Worst) you have to wonder
 
In the West - girlfriend reveals Hunter WC hero died from meth induced heart attack, bankrupt, living off his girlfriend. Oh those Eagles of 2006 were a different bunch indeed.

That'd be an absolute gift from Port to take his contract off us tbh.

They do realise they delisted Narkle and it was our decision to add him via the SSP, so they don't owe us for that...

Ironically though Brodie off the list probably means an absolute last resort depth player like Narkle might survive.
 
We're really plumbing the depths getting 'insight' from Xavier Ellis.
 
31:20 for our stuff. Not mentioned in our segment but mentioned elsewhere: Jackson has to be AA as a utility and Treacy was missed by the coaches in the votes and was 2nd highest rated player on the ground.
