Hardie

MP-''Cameron listen I dont want to leave but I play to play in premiership sides , and I dont see Chris cutting it, Cameron I really want to stay but not under Chris...please trade me or I walk and you get nothing''

Of course....he wants to play in premiership sides but he's prepared to walk and end up at a basketcase loser Victorian club?

Keep dreaming sunshine. The only chance in hell you've got of getting Pavlich is if you either end up last the year he comes out of contract or if you're prepared to trade quality players/draft picks. And even if that happens, your chances are still low.

Brad Hardie is a white-ant of the highest order, as is old George. I don't seriously consider any of the faeces constantly spouting from their mouths.

Hoss its not Hardie who is the whiteanter..its the person inside the club giving him info that is. Thats the person I would hate

 

[pinkus maximus]

At the end of the day both Hardie and George hate Connolly,and have so from the beginning.

It would be interesting to see if an ex souths or shark player eg worsfold sumich were coaching this team how much critisism they would be receiving.

Lets get one thing straight ! Getting rid of Cuddly will not solve the problem. The problem starts at the top and goes all the way down to the coach. I feel sorry for the players.

Dutchey is right on the money. He is a very wise man and he has his finger on the pulse.

Connoly may survive? but others should be looking over their shoulders.

So you want to see Hart and Schwab gone too?

 

[Dutchey]

Go to the top of the class.

 

[Farrand]

Go to the top of the class.

I can understand Rick Hart. But if you start getting rid of ever single administration member then you cause some real chaos at the FFC. It would be a hard thing to recover from, and I don't think Freo have it in them.

What really needs to be done is to stop this buddy system that they seem to have, where the chairman loves the coach, and vise-versa. There is no danger in that relationship, which means they can be as poor as they like performance wise.

You need two people that intensely dislike eachother, so if one slips up, his job is gone. That creates the pressure to succeed.

 

[Dutchey]

You're getting there How about this radical idea ? Why don't we chase the 'B-E-S-T' people in the caper ?

I know, I know, it's never been done before but isn't it what a club named Fremantle would do ?

 

[Ripper]

Why don't we chase the 'B-E-S-T' people in the caper ?

Yep, We really need some people who can turn Freo from being $7mil in debt and almost wound up by the AFL to being debt free in a few years.

What are the MOB going to do when the members get to elect the board and the vast silent majority re-elect the current admin?

Still white-ant from within?

 

[Dutchey]

Fair dinkum !!

This is like talking to brick wall

 

[dugrene]

Fremantle = Zimbabwe ?

Hope you guys dont let idealism get in front realism.

We currently have football club while not a powerhouse is far from under achieving in terms of Members and profits and with 6 of the next 10 games at Subi we are still in the game.

While some use the term ' satisfied with mediocrity' I am more concerned with those who (apparently) would prefer to see Fremantle lose a few more games to make their agenda easier to promote.

Judging by the threads at WHTP something is going on. Dutchey obviously is over here (at BF) laying the foundations for some sought of members and supporters coup. If this is the case I have no problems and look forward to informed opinion and debate.

We all agree on one thing FFC will one day be the club we envision. You dont get 34000 members and no silverware just on bandwagoners. How it occurs I have no idea.

I for one would like to see a Club run, administered and operating under its own constitution by elected Board Members and committees. To acvhieve this outcome will be more of a battle in the Courts than in the streets. But is that idealism or realism ?

If the current administration get us into the 8 this year, declare another profit get an increase in membership for 2006 justifying a change would be difficult.

Looking forward to tomorrows elimination final

I absolutely agree with that mate. Ever since Neesham getting the boot I've wanted Freo to start targetting some people with experience.

When CC got the job back in 2001/2002, I had reservations. And when I saw his mentor Schwab begin to lose it, that really just set the tone for the future.

 

[jarman]

Hey Duchey - could not agree with you more, the "rot is higher than CC" but
CC is not a good football coach. The higher echelons will be harder to remove but CC has to go as a minimum. Our football is carp.

We have to get the football team right as a first priority.

Hard to fight the higher powers when the financial and membership side of the club is doing well.

 

[tico]

i think you will find that when CC gets sacked you will see Cameron Schwab will be sacked as well.

It's where the big problem is. You can't have best friends working together. They spend too much time covering eachothers backs then actually doing their jobs.

It's a shame though, cause Schwab has done some great things.

Ok I can understand why you are gunning for the coach as the on field performance of the team is way less than we expect at the moment but why do you despise the administration. By all indicators they seem to be doing a good job in getting the club finances in order. The BWR room fiasco is no only beef I have with them. What exactly are your problems with the admin.

Still got your head in the sand, Ripper?

Nothing is wrong at Freo hey? CC has done you proud?

Maybe the Freo Mob will cut you from Freo's payroll and then you can stop spin-doctoring all the Dr Feel-Good adulations for Schwabb & Cuddles.

Worse thing is it is a waste of time listening to 6PR for another week on the way home from work. I don't mind Barra, he sounds like a decent bloke and is fair to Freo. Hardie is unbearable and basically mixes bashing Freo (win, lose or draw) with bagging AFL admin and umps.

I loved it when Budda Hocking accused him of hiding behind the microphone, Hardie went off his block.

Their ratings would be so much better if there was any point Freo fans listening to their show.
