Fremantle Oval?

[Juddyzthebest]

Did u hear about that bunch of dilusinal fremantle businessmen want to buy the rights to Subiaco Oval and re-name it 'FREMANTLE OVAL'? What a load of bulls**t! I would refuse to step foot there... its in the middle of Subiaco, Home of the WEST COAST EAGLES and they want to degrade teh place by calling it that? PLEASE! If anything they should call it West Coast Stadium and **** those Dockers off. Its OUR home turf, they can go play down on teh docks where they bl**dy well belong.
Geezzz...the nerve! Id rather it be called Crazy Johns than that!

[eagleskickass]

not worried at all, if Subi council wouldnt allow it to be called crazy Johns then SUBIACO council definately wont allow it to be called FREMANTLE oval

My point exactly.

You lot take everything that comes out of Freo so seriously. What are you so threatened about?? That your place as #1 WA team is about to be taken from you?

Of course it's never going to be called Fremantle Oval. AS IF........

But it's got the desired reaction from you paranoid Toast supporters.

Get over your fear of Freo becoming better than your team. It's fact, reality, it's already happened. Just sit back and accept your place in the shadows as we had to for 8 years.

Geez the sunshine feels good.

For all that, the bid is a real bid. There are actually people out there putting up 5 million dollars to rename Subi as Fremantle oval. They aint just putting up 5 million dollars just to wind up some Eagles supporters, the real world just doesn't work like that.

They would know that it would never go through - its just publicity for the Fremantle Football Club and its working a treat. There are many Weagles fans who are mightily peed off at something that aint never gonna happen.
And in the meantime the opublicity machine keeps rolling on and the fans (of both sides) are getting more worked up. It's the beginning of the finals - we have a home final - and Freo is being talked about all over.
Clever timing.
And if it does happen, I'll be chuckling every time I take the kids to Dockers training at Fremantle Oval (in Fremantle), and every time I take them to the games at Fremantle Oval (in Subiaco).

never gonna happen, let em have their fun...

It's funny how West Coast were the Corporate money hungry club once and Docker's were the people's club but has anyone noticed how commercial Freo has become lately?
They'd ****** sell their mothers if it got them an another high profile member like the horse, the hack comedian, Wayne Jackson, thePrime Minister, the Virgin guy, the 400k model that can't play.
They resort to soft pr0n to get members to sign up.
They made their coach wear Cargo pants FFS. Imagine Woosha making a fool of himself like that.
Purple Haze day? What do Hendrix and drug connotations have to do with Freo?
As soon as something like Crazy Johns comes up. First they try and do their own sponsorship deal, now it's name the stadium Freo.
Their coach just straight out lies now to get headlines.
It would be sickening if West Coast were doing it, but it's funny seeing how corrupt the Dockers are becoming.

It's good to see that you respect Fremantle.

I hope they keep it up so that they can start paying the bills. We financed them to where they are now, so they should be kissing our arses.

What's hilarious, is that you think that now you're better than us (although that really is yet to be proven), you've reached the pinnacle of achievement in football.

Put whatever twist on it you want Wattie - if it makes you feel better, I'm happy for you.

We are better than you, and no - that is certainly no pinnacle being better than the Toasters. I am not that deluded.

But there are a large number of WC supporters who are crapping their dacks cos they know it's the truth.

Better than you - yes.
The best - not yet.

On the evening yes, on the evening. Overall, I still think with both teams playing at their best we would be marginally better than you.

Touch and go Carly.

I reckon it's pretty even, I would think that Freo would be ahead.

But let's agree to disagree.

You beat us by 2 goals and 2 behinds when we had 1 fit person on the bench. Everyone knows we havent been the same since we got all these injurys. You were better on the day thats for sure. But overall, if we'd had our best side in and were playing like we can we would have accounted for you easily. You can hardly say that you wernt close to your best on Saturday night. You were missing Trent Toad, Grandpa Parker and Clive 'bloods gunna be spilt' Waterhouse. You were in some of the best form of your season and had been doing well. If we'd got those goals in the start of the 4th quarter we would have won. We didnt take our chances and the footy gods wernt smiling on us. You guys took your chances and finished off better than us. I would say its touch and go at the moment but at both teams best that we have seen this season then you have to go with us. We beat the Reigning premiers in Brisbane by 10 or 11 goals. That to me is the sign of a good side.

1 fit man on the bench? You mean Wirrpunda and McDougall didn't come back on?

And how many fit men did we have? Pavlich was off for half the last quarter, Cook was out and of course Farmer. Yep, we were loaded with fit players on the bench.

Who were you missing from your best side bar Embley? If you are that reliant on a couple of players, that's not a sign of a very good side.

And if you got that goal, how do you know you would have won? The reason you scored all those behinds was because the ball was locked in your forward line. Obviously when you kick a goal, the ball goes back to the centre. After Wirra's goal, we got the next goal... we were struggling to get the ball out defence at that stage.

The footy season isn't over 12 weeks. Obviously your best has been very very good this season, and was better than our best but that doesn't make you the better side. St. Kilda at times look irresistible and their best has been right up there, but does that make them a better team than any of the finalists?

Alright fair enough but what choice did we have? They definately wernt fit.

And how many fit men did we have? Pavlich was off for half the last quarter, Cook was out and of course Farmer. Yep, we were loaded with fit players on the bench.

Fair enough but you have to say our team was in a worse predictament than yours was.

Wirrpunda was carrying an injury
Chick had an injury
Jako had an injury
Mcdougal had an injury
Gardiner wasnt fully fit even though I agreed with Wooshas decision to play him and it almost payed off having him in the forward line.

These blokes being injured meant they couldnt perform the same as they usually do. Its not like we played them injured either, they were all injured during the game. More proof that the football gods wernt smilling down on us.

And if you got that goal, how do you know you would have won? The reason you scored all those behinds was because the ball was locked in your forward line. Obviously when you kick a goal, the ball goes back to the centre. After Wirra's goal, we got the next goal... we were struggling to get the ball out defence at that stage.

We were down by 20 points at 3/4 time right? Wirrpunda had two shots on goal. One he got. One he missed. Cousins had a shot on goal that almost went through. Its fair to say that if those two goals had gone through we would have had a big run on and been able to finish it off. We had so much of the ball and if we'd got those goals we would have been hard to stop.

The footy season isn't over 12 weeks. Obviously your best has been very very good this season, and was better than our best but that doesn't make you the better side. St. Kilda at times look irresistible and their best has been right up there, but does that make them a better team than any of the finalists?

Thats true. A fair point. But you have to admit injurys have been woefull for us. We've had bad luck.

How so? We had one more unavailable player on the bench.

How many were carried into the game? We had just as many get injured on the night.

Yes, that is because we struggled to get the ball out the 50, as I said. We would kick it out and it would come straight back in. You guys had set up well across half forward. If you had have kicked the first goal, you might well have not got those other shots. It's clutching at straws saying you would have won if you kicked straighter. You would have been in a better position to win then what you were, but that's it.
