If there’s a better article about our season I’m yet to read it

Wow, what an article!

I suppose one reason to be thankful for the listless mainstream coverage is that more dedicated, independent writers are getting some fair exposure. Loved this piece.

Indeed, good insights...am a bit of Roar regular...still get some bias depending on who writes, but always offers another angle and the comments are worth a read.

Spectacular article.

Great article but wasn’t The Roar one of the sites that wrote us off as no chance going into the finals?

 

[DivideandMultiply]

Amazing article.

Written off by just about everyone heading into the finals, the Eagles seized a premiership for themselves in the best decider played in more than half a decade.

The best article to come out of the roar in ages and one of the best I can remember reading about the GF, pure quality!

Saw somewhere the same writer penned one for the 2016 Bulldogs win that was hailed as one of the best as well.

I think he writes them every year now. It's great work, adds some context to the season, especially if you don't follow the team.

He really nailed the feeling we had the last few seasons, we were good but not hardened. And now we definitely are or atleast I am.

Can't really be upset with this headline:

The West Coast Eagles saved football, again

Praises the 2006 efforts to break down the Crowbots and Sydney (and acknowledges that Geelong copy and pasted our gameplan to create a dynasty), and this year's efforts to make a mockery of "chaos ball" aka piss poor disposal skills

A most interesting read that. Spot on too.

Anyone read a small non-insightful article on Kizon, saying he had a heart attack,
crashing into bollards near a hospital...often described as 'a colourful Perth identity...?'
that's an understatement..

Anyone who hasnt seen Schoeys post match interview. Amazing!

"It was one of those games that someone was gonna win in the end."

Well said, Will.

 

[greennick]

I still don't get why they cut that and play the Joffa interview. Who gives a **** how a fat social worker feels?

 

[Cuzz09]

Was there any post game on field interviews??

Any footage of any interviews from the day would be awesome

 

[flamingEMBERS]

Richo asking hurn if the game should stay at the ‘G.... that type of interview?

Does any one know where to find this? I screenshot it to remind my self to watch it when I had time but it seems to have been taken down on YouTube.

In the offseason so far, I have noticed a lot of press about Freo, almost daily updates, pumping them up, their new recruits and the optimism and blah-blah...even vision of Freo doing their own Jetta like dance-moves? (bit sad)
But very little press from WCE, almost gone off the radar, laying low.
Am good with that, but Freo certainly look to be an overhauled side,
their biggest mistake was not overhauling Lyons!?

Wow. Great article.

Well written and looked at more than this season and a few stars.

This just shows the massive gap between talented sports journalists and the likes of Robert Walls.

Thankfully Walls has retired and is concentrating his talents into helping Carlton.

Well it helps their pre-season started a month before ours

There was very little coverage of Fremantle and lots of coverage of West Coast in the week before and after the Grand Final for reasons that can be summed up in one word: "Conspiracy". Thus the news, in order to continue to maintain the facade that they aren't a front operation for the West Coast media department, have to focus on Fremantle for now.
