Yeah that’s the bit that annoyed me. Trying to claim we wouldn’t have won it if the AFL knew about Armstrong and the car crash incident because Masten was part of the 2007 draft. Even though he wasn’t one of our normal draft picks.And then attributes our 2018 flag (at least in part) to the lack of sanctions we received.
"Had this eventuated, it could have changed the course of another West Coast premiership, as the Eagles recruited Chris Masten with their first selection in the 2007 Draft, who would go on to help the club win its 2018 flag. There was only a kick in that game, too."
No. Just Richmond.We must be playing an important game this week?

A few years ago I had an in-depth chat to Daniel about footy and his knowledge and insight surprised me. He would leave most of the so-called footy experts for dead.I'm sure it's been written about here but Daniel Kerr is an excellent analyst on the Coast to Coast podcast. Under all the joking and mucking about, he knows his stuff. That seems obvious but there aren't that many ex-players who are good at talking about how the game works rather than just spouting off.
"Although we now know West Coast as a 50-time premiership winning club and the most successful sporting organisation the country has ever seen, at one point they had some players with a drug problem."
So if Masten's kid turns out to a superstar can we attribute further premierships to the lack of sanctions in 2007?

I’ll leave this here..
Freo still the only WA club in the AFL to have players caught with drugs or test positive to drugs while on their playing list...
True but given the state of numpties in the football media it sadly is.An elite player having an elite football brain really shouldn't sound as surprising as it does.

There are only two teams that Richmond hasn’t at least gone 2-2 against in their last four meetings - the Western Bulldogs and West Coast. In fact the Tigers have won just once against the Eagles at the MCG in the last nine seasons, in their premiership year of 2017. So it doesn’t look great in that regard. But the weird thing is neither of these teams were the teams they are today in that game. It was all the way back in Round 3, and their only other meeting was Round 9, 2018.
