Is the Twitter girl good looking. Can someone other than Keys confirm or deny this.
I think someone said this is her

Pretty sure she has a good personality

Told my wife she had a good personality the other day, been sleeping in the dog house every since

Keys beat me to it

If Freo goes onto have a dynastywhile we languish at the bottom, then young fans and those fair whether fans will definitely sway to the dark side. That will get the club panicking.

I'd leave the state but not the club. But yeah I hear you about the fair weather fans.

How did you score those? I want to get in on that action.


But that's just the point Vish - no serious consequences will ever be felt by the club. Unless you meant something like Keys having a stroke. There'd be more of us yelling at clouds if that happened.

This state is footy mad, and no one is going to stop being a fan of the Eagles even if the club does treat us with disdain while putting on a big smile when they're out "engaging with the community" - which the club actually does fairly well.

At a bare minimum, you'd hope they actually considered the adverse impact on fans by having some kind of a cost/benefit discussion instead of simply ignoring the issue.

If I were in some kind of management position at the club I'd advocate that the club send emails to members explaining these kinds of decisions. How hard could that possibly be? Twitter has too much of an informal vibe to convey true respect.

That in itself would be an aspect of fan engagement and would go a long way to mitigating the negativity, not the mention the perception that the club is arrogant.
Look out for the quiz on the clubs Twitter page that gives tickets to games and just be obsessed enough to get the answer the question correctly and quickly.

Anyone manage to sneak in and watch the intraclub? (If it happened).

Annoying that my feed has been full of updates from other clubs' scratchies but we're locked out of ours
@Keyser1617 we understand that all of this is frustrating, but this is the choice the club has taken.

That basically already happened in 2013/14. Not sure if we panicked but I reckon we did and our response was: "The West Is Ours"

Not likely to happen so don't hold your breath:rolleyes:
The new stadium will make things interesting. Give it a couple of years. Perhaps easier access to memberships for more people may take the demand pressure off and might actually require the club to start treating its members and fans with a bit more love.

They've certainly been better this pre-season than in the past with getting official media out there and providing info on training sessions etc. That's been a plus.

its not a dynasty. Say freo go onto win 3 in a row or something. The club will only wake up and do something after freo win their second. Good organisations don't rest on their laurels. We need to be more proactive.
