Hmmm... that star Michael Braun is on the seven man "bench from". Obviously up for another big season, Eagles fans.
Still those other three stars, Wirrpunda, Gardiner and Cousins are there, so you should win in a canter.

That STAR Michael Braun is on the bench for a reason. He has not played footy in 10 months, so will be worked into the game slowly. Think about things before you say it. At least he is getting out there - unlike Carey, Kelly, Hird etc who are supposed to be STARS!!!

Grow up and think about your posts before you post anything.

MDB, I showed considerably more thought before posting, than the person who labelled Braun a star.

If he "has not played footy in 10 months", wouldn't it be wiser to ease the bloke back through the WAFL rather than putting him in the side out of desperation?
 
Darky, you yourself should know that STARS dont need to be eased back through the WAFL. Brauny would be one of the fittest guys at the club at the moment and he is starting on the bench because of a lack of match practice. It shouldnt take him long to reach the standard that we are all used to. So stop knocking someone you know nothing about.
 
After 10 months with zero football, it's bordering on insane to put a bloke in the firsts. No match fitness, no competitive body work, no ball handling under pressure.
Have it your way - you're right, I'm wrong. I'm sure he'll play a blinder. Good luck to the lad.
 
Yes yes - you think this is the worst Eagles Team. Two questions:

1. How will you deal with being beaten by the 'worst' Eagles team?

2. I wonder how the worst Eagles compares to the worst Collingwood, Richmond team etc? Mind you Richmond seems to pull out the same old worst team every year!! For the same result (lack of).

Cheers Bullseye
 
Nothing will ever change the fact that the Eagles beat Richmond in our first ever VFL match

Actually, here's a story for you TT and Stormy. Deej's brother lives in perth so we decide to go over for a month on holiday's over New Year and Australia Day. He's been shagging this chick for the past year and they break up the day we arrive in Perth ( New Years Day ) We thought, heck it, let's go to the cup and have a few frosties. Had a great day ( 28 degrees and not a cloud in the sky ) , the beer was shitty - don't enjoy their local crap, but the talent was special. After backing the winner in the cup at 7/1 and duefully collecting a handsome profit, we decide to jump the fence about 200 metres before the winning post into what is commonly known as "Tent City". We did this cause we knew that the ex girlfriend would be inside. Well, what do you know, there she and also in her presence was one Michael Braun. Well the shit hit the fan and before you could blink, some of his mates are charging Deej's brother ( 4 to be exact ) and they got the crap puched out of them by this one guy. Braun pissed off very quickly and the brother has since been charged with assaulting 4 blokes - what a croc. Anyway, I gotta say that after meeting Braun, well the impression i got is that he thought his shit don't stink and I continue to ask this question to myself - what has he done on a football field that has been so special anyway ? Always thought that he was an average footballer and certainly does not look out of place on the bench this weekend either ( fit or not )
 
The Eagles boys seem to get up to all sorts of extra-curricula activities.

To Worm4,

Please, please, please get your facts straight before you accuse or mention anyone of doing anything.

For your information, I spent New Years Eve with Michael Braun, and I was with him the whole next day - at that was not at the Perth Cup!!! It was at his house, by his pool.

So for all of you who are bagging him and stereotyping him into a category where he doesnt belong, please stop and think about what this idiot Worm4 has said.

As for "he thinks his shit dont stink" maybe if you actually got to meet the guy (Im guessing you haven't said one word to him) you might think otherwise.

Also, "what has he done on the football field" - well he came a draw with the GREAT Guy McKenna in 1999 (No great feat) at the Eagles B&F. And he PLAYS AFL football - alot more than I can say you probably do.

So, get your facts straight, and post something with a bit of substance next time, Loser......
 
Daannyyyy please please please no mentioning of the words "laurie Keene" ever again.

Two seventy metre torps that bounced another twenty and went through to win them games!!! Still makes me depressed even now.

If you know him so well, then you should know who the person is I'm talking about . The girl's name starts with L and the bloke's initial's are A.M.
C'mon, let's see how well you know this bloke before you start making of fool of me.
 
TigerTank - concentrate on your own side before you judge us on our first game of the season. Enjoying your premiership cup from the 90s? Oops thats right your team didn't even make a grand final (*cough* 3 times) or win one (*cough* twice) - and at least our club didn't have to have Robert Walls as a coach, he looks like he's escaped from Toronga Park zoo.
 
Gee, Go Eagles, you were going so well until you brought up coaches.

Now get a pen and paper, and write me 100 lines:

Ken Judge isn't a coach's nutsack
Ken Judge isn't a coach's nutsack
Ken Judge isn't a coach's nutsack
Ken Judge ...

Funny thing is, he coached the hawks for a lot longer than he has coached the eagles. Bit hypocritical there, aren't we?

Danny Chook, your so F*cking ungrateful its pathetic. He made your team what it is today and then was given the boot. Now your team will reap the benefits of Judges good work. So crawl back into your shit and piss hole would you.

And what is it with all the Eagle bashing going on. I think everyone is sour from us being so successful in the 90's. Now were going through a rough patch everyone has to get there two cents in. Well bash away, i couldnt care less, we will answer all the critics on the footy field.
 
Sorry Jod, but have to back Danny.

Facts are that quite a few of the Hawks so called 'young guns' were picked up
before Judge arrived.

Rawlings,Dixon,Harford,Crawford,Tallis and Holland were all Kinghts era signings (or earlier).

Judge brought in Hay,Thompson and Chick as real guns, he also brought in Sharkey,Ridley,Kilmartin,Krummell (though he was more unlucky than untalented)Hassell and quite a few other 'rejecet' types like he is now doing at the West Coast. Barker nearly disappeared under Judges mismangement.

Our recruiting stagnated for Judges last two seasons under Judge. Most of our younger players coming through now (Mcpharlin,Clarke,Johnson etc) have all been
post Judge era.

I liked Judge intially, but to say that he is responsible for the rebuilding that the Hawks are now showing is greatly exaggerating
his influence. Looking back i think Knights actually put some decent players onto the roster for us. Judge became (and still is i believe) to negative and refused to implement any type of offense into his game plan. Its okay to be accountable, but to actually go into a game (night game Hawks vs Adelaide 98) conceding that your going to be beaten and trying to limit the margin by what your going to lose by? Thats when he lost me.

Cheers.

Well, that's certainly put me in my place. How does one respond to such wit and humour?

joke23, there's no reason for Hawthorn to be jealous of West Coast - can I point you in the direction of the last Saturday in September 1991?

And Kenny was such a good recruiter of talent, that he's brought two of them home with him - good luck watching Michael Collica. Meanwhile, the one true prize that he tried to snatch away remains firmly in brown and gold.

He gave West Coast the arse
