I have noticed on the radio and in my travels around town that at the mearest mention of footy there are a multitude of agitated defensive budgie wagoners circulating. Anybody else noticed this change in mood.

If we do that we'll have broken even over 4 seasons. There will be a huge paradigm shift in how the media, and Eagles supportes will have to perceive the two teams.

Dagg the handpass to Purple. Purple, shows the ball, then dances around the opposition, leaving them flat footed and foolish.ImperialPurple said:If we were to finish higher than your lot after the finals (highly debatable at this stage of course), then, post Worsfold and CC's rookie years, it would be:
2003: FFC finished higher
2004: Weags finished higher
2005: Weags finished higher
2006: FFC higher
ie over 4 years there would be 2 years where the Bluenyella Peril finished higher, and 2 where FFC finished higher.
No need to get all sarckie and narckie jimbob...![]()

Actually imperial daggs might describe both of us quite well.docker_johnno said:hmm it must be mr and mrs imperial dagg.
2003 both West Coast and Fremantle got knocked out in the elimination round, so it was a draw.ImperialPurple said:If we were to finish higher than your lot after the finals (highly debatable at this stage of course), then, post Worsfold and CC's rookie years, it would be:

It is not possible for you to finish higher than us even if we lose our next two games and you win your next two. So why bother discussing it?ImperialPurple said:If we were to finish higher than your lot after the finals (highly debatable at this stage of course), then, post Worsfold and CC's rookie years, it would be:

The AFL doesn't look at it that way and neither do we. That's why you got an earlier draft pick than us in 2003.gdmclean said:2003 both West Coast and Fremantle got knocked out in the elimination round, so it was a draw.
It's not cockiness, it's anticipation. If we can win a few more games we have the chance to give 50,000 West Coast supporters a right royal raspberry.Bestbird said:So what's with all the cockiness amoungst the Purple

But you do an excellent job of highlighting the delusion and arrogance of so many West Coast supporters. There's very little sportsmanship in a lot of you fellas. Never admit that we might have been better. That's why we have threads where we guess your excuses for after the match.

So close to what?Dr Ralph Dagg said:We know we're not over the line, and the WCE are a formidable team -- but we are so close we can taste it.
Seriously? Bitter, twisted, chips on our shoulders we might be. No one has ever accused us of being cocky and arrogant.Killer eagle said:Ahhh but look on the own side of your fence. All clubs have cocky and arrogant supporters.
To turning up to work on the front foot. To rolling our eyes as we hear the excuses trotted out. To hearing more of GDMcLean refusing to concede that we might have actually finished higher than the Eagles. etc etc.Gunnar Longshanks said:So close to what?
A flag, or beating WC in the Derby?

(I suspect it might not be the only symbolic gesture. I'd photocopy my backside, scan it and stick it on the Weagles board but not many have a 21" monitor.)

Like EFH having a whole Derby BoardQuinzate1 said:I just love it how there's at least four threads about the eagles on the freo board (this one, we hate the eagles, excuses, eagles playing games etc.), and we only have one about the dockers. Can you say 'obsessed'?
