I don't dislike YOU, I dislike ONLY your posts regarding CC, as whatever anyone says, you will come back and try to defend him at all costs.
It is too easy to follow the norm and agree especially where sticking the boots in are concerned.

Me: Freo and Eagles list 2001 were the same.
You: Nope
I think I have demonstrated qutie clearly that I was right there as well.
TheReason said:
Me: Your list (starting 22) is Top 4 material (I'm paying a compliment)
Correct in 2003 we made the finals with few injury problems and on the back of exceptional (AA) seasons from Bellie , Pav & Hase.
We have never had our starting 22 on the park at the same time ever this year and everybody acts like we have.

You: You'll bring out stats to say Freo list over-rated.
And No less than David Parkin agrees with me.
"For years Freo people have overrated where they are actually at. Chris Connolly knows what is required and is the right man for the job".
I think he has far more credibility than "helpfull" Eagles supporters and some of our own who fit the above category and are impatient for success (as I am also).
I also remember 1998 when we beat both Grand finalists but faded after being decimated by injuries.
New coach , half the list traded of delisted and after 3 years only 6 players that made their AFL debut under Drum /Allan are still on the list and only 2 are still playing elsewhere.
Compare that to the 17 that have made their AFL Debut under CC and all are still listed.

Me: CC made a bad move in the last game.
You: So Woosha's move of Player A in 2003, how was that not wrong?
Can't remember that , got a link?
TheReason said:
So, you are saying, your comments are "not far off the mark". Okay, then show howm many other supporters staunchly defend CC at all costs?
There are few , it takes balls to stand up against popular (even if it is mis-guided IMO ) opinion.
The Anti CC campaign would have more credibility with me if it wasn't started off in early 2004 when we were sitting top 6.
This smacks to me of an agenda.
