OP thinks a Fremantle supporting journalist IS the Eagles? Wild stuff
Duff does have a point though - the precedence has been set

If the eagles get a priority pick, eagles fans deserved abuse from dockers fans.It should be merged with the "things that haven't happened yet that won't stop people getting their knickers in a knot over" thread
I'd say 2026 is even too soon. PP should be based on Teams success not current form. They have been in 7 grand finals and won 4 flags since inception. Not many teams can say they have had such success, if they can't sort their s**t out being the "biggest" club in the land then they can continue to rot at the bottom of the ladder.
Eagles supporters are quick to remind Freo fans how poorly their club is run and have spent many years struggling, now that West Coast have been a joke for 2 seasons some of their silver spoon fans are crying poor.
* West Coast
Why is the WA talent pathways so Bad? the process didnt happen over a year or 2. It happened over the decades.Really?
Why are our talent pathways so bad?
Isn't Sydney the 'biggest' club in Australia, according to your president?
Also, your club has played in 4 grand finals in 12 years.
Swans are the last club that should be getting a leg up.
I just get sick of the sooking, their fans want us to believe they are hard done by, they wouldnt know what a drought was really like and they think their entitled to a free ride because they are of the opinion the AFL doesn't want them to lose money. Seriously? Their fans deserve more years of pain than just just a miserly 2 or 3.Very hard to argue against this.
Again.... I am still bitter about Freos 2016 season going 0-10 and 4 wins and 18 losses after finishing top in 2015.
I knew once freos 2016 season ended, it was going to be a 5 year period of no finals, at a bare minimum.
take away freos 4 win season in 2016, dockers got 7 or 8 or 9 wins in 2017-20.
Their fans deserve more years of pain than just just a miserly 2 or 3.
As long as it takes for you to work it out. Trading your draft picks for Tim Kelly and keeping your aging list together too long so now you have to strip it bare isn't the rest of the competitions fault.how many years do we deserve?
From what I've seen in the thread, most of the sooking is coming from non-WC posters.I just get sick of the sooking, their fans want us to believe they are hard done by, they wouldnt know what a drought was really like and they think their entitled to a free ride because they are of the opinion the AFL doesn't want them to lose money.

I am not concerned about the sooking to be honest.I just get sick of the sooking, their fans want us to believe they are hard done by, they wouldnt know what a drought was really like and they think their entitled to a free ride because they are of the opinion the AFL doesn't want them to lose money.

For years we were told how professionally run the eagles were and after 2 s**t seasons your fans want to hold their hands out like beggars.
What a joke
Non west coast supporters aren't the ones arguing they should get priority picks because your comparing your club to bloody North Melbourne.From what I've seen in the thread, most of the sooking is coming from non-WC posters.
Come back to me in 37 years and only 2 finals wins. Fun fact your club has had as many priority picks as mine in the same time. Brett Deledio & Rance to Chris Judd and Jack Darling.you said more than 2-3 so i thought you maybe had a figure in mind
lets say 5?

Neither of these are the reason we're in the position we're in.As long as it takes for you to work it out. Trading your draft picks for Tim Kelly and keeping your aging list together too long so now you have to strip it bare
And you wonder why I celebrated that 2022 elim final win vs the dogs very well. It almost felt like a premiership. that was our 1st finals win since 2015. Mundy was a 37 year old Mundy and walters was a 31 year old in 2022. those 2 blokes were left in that last finals win in 2015.
Still doesn't mean you deserve any free ride either. Your not North Melbourne, never have been.Neither of these are the reason we're in the position we're in.
You're right, we didn't have the equal most first round picks on our list before we received assistance, including 8 or so from the top. 10.Still doesn't mean you deserve any free ride either. Your not North Melbourne, never have been.
But they are sooking about the prospect of priority picks being handed out because the media are speculating about it.Non west coast supporters aren't the ones arguing they should get priority picks because your comparing your club to bloody North Melbourne.
Don’t know how you read my post as a sook, think you need to look up the meaning of the word.Its been 6 years. In another 2 to 3 years there likely will be none of that team left other than Sheed who is perma injured. Eagles have $7m in cap space opening up over the next three years. And your crying because all their stars are retiring?
You are obviously happy with grand final teams getting full academy access and quality kids every year? Plus free agents. Plus father sons. Plus quality players lining up to move to Sydney and Brisbane and Collingwood
Pretty hard to rebuild when the AFL system allows finals teams to just keep getting better with leg up after leg up.
But you have a sook because the 18th team is crap and has so few stars between 23 and 27 peaking to spend the salary cap on.
Some sides would wish for a spine of Barrass, McGovern, Kelly, Darling, Allen.....
Port Made a grand final in 2007.They are also supposedly putting a million plus deal for Taylor.
Didn’t they win a flag recently?
If that includes academies and f/s then I'm OK with it.The rule should be all priority picks are unavailable until it’s been at least 10yrs after last flag otherwise it promotes being s**t something only big clubs and little clubs that still have Daddy paying the bills can do.
