Until you have some proof of that we aren't interested, i would have thought something would have happened last night if he was retiring.

It did. That's why I am telling you now.

Another opposition poster who has been telling us Bell was "definitely" retiring insisted he had the inside story, and announced here a couple of days ago that Belly had changed his mind and would play on... and that we could thank him later for the news.

Tell us why we should believe you - or go away.

I dont really care if you believe me. It's going to happen either way.

If you;re not going to tell us, and you don;t care whether or not we believe you.... than take option 2 - and go away.

Ok, I was talking to his business colleagues from a Property company.

He also got his parents to fly to Adelaide. He never gets them to go to any game.

That was the part we already knew... the other poster reckons that since then (ie since his original decision), he has had second thoughts and is intending to tell his property partners that he has one more year left in him...


I guess we'll all see for sure during the week. I hope you're wrong, but I fear you're not.

Bell played his 150th game for the club last night and achieving life membership, which is quite a big deal. Doesn't mean he's definately playing on, but that could explain why his parents went to the game.

And why Scwabbie shook his hand before the game as well.

Ch9 news tonight claimed the club is confident Belly will play on.

Excellent news if true

I'm always willing to believe the news when they tell me something I want to hear.

(This must be what it feels like to be an eagles supporter.)

Well I for one haven't been listening to the news this year.

But I did overhear something about Freo missing the finals and the Eagles earning a double chance.

Again.

Did I miss anything else?

 

[estibador]

I'm not sure. I try to avoid the WA news services whenever possible. There's only so much sycophantic eagles spin a mere mortal can handle.

But on a totally unrelated note I've got just the thing to keep those Crownies you swindled off poor Bushie cold:

Mate it's common knowledge amongst us that if he is leaving us ut will be for his Seacrast goup that operates in Geralton, you can name the name it's not news to us,

however and this is the key....it's Peter's decision....no-one elses....so your collegues can talk all they want but not even Peter knows what he is doing, and with him being in career best form and Fremantle obviously wanting to make a greater impact next year I would be VERY surprised to see him leave just beacuse a couple of PR people think that it would be a good idea.

Sure he may have hinted that he was going to leave but he is contracted to us still so hold your cheap, half-arsed opinion to urself or the eagles board. untill then take care of collingwood then bow out gracefully. that is all

Typical Freo cheap shot.

BTW, I never swindled those Crownies of Bushie either. Blame your pretenders of a football team. The poor misguided fool was under the deluded impression that Freo would finish higher than the Eagles in 2007.

He will not be going to Geraldton to sell land yet.

Not when he is still playing soooooo well.

Trust me I have lived in Gero and its appeal is not that great!!! hahaha

I would've thought he be gettting into his legal and/or political apirations.

That was my first thought, why would you waste one last year of career best footy to sell land in Geraldton ?. Geez selling land in Meeka has about the same amount of drawing power ......

We will wait and see what the 2007 Doig Medalist does in 2008.

 

[carntheroos4eva]

Good luck to Peter Bell in his retirement.

Sorry I was a little off with my timing.

No way, I'd rather live in Baghdad than Meeka! Atleast they got rid of the dictator in Iraq.

 

[DOCKER MAN]

I saw Belly the other day with his wife and daughter, didn't want to have a kick with us as he said he would tear his hammy. I hope that means that he is worried about that because the speculation is false and he is playing next year.

 

[Freo Blood]

This is giving me the irrits. Belly, whats the big deal about announcing at the Doig? You'll still get a clap and a video presentation either way. Tell us and the club now so FFC can get on with 2008.

If I was in charge of recruiting/list management etc at FFC I would be mightily pissed off!! I can't believe he wouldn't have told the club by now...
