How's the charisma on Bolts Jnr

Time for Bolts Jnr to replace BT permanently

I kind of wish he hadn't potentially fired up Port with his comments after the game today particularly if he won't be out there..

Bruzzy is probably the only one in our team that I would be ok razzing up the opposition. As long as as he’s playing (not suspended), he’ll fly the flag the way we should.

I'd much prefer our footy do the talking. They don't need any extra motivation after their pitiful effort today and what we did to them in round 2.

When the rain arrived and Pendles went and had a shower, the gloves came off.
No new injuries.
Ready for Port next week.

No. They don't need to be the same club to draw from the same heritage. They are FREMANTLE football club. They represent Fremantle.

You are saying that Fremantle with their football pedigree and support transferred from TWO WAFL clubs is somehow as irrelevant as Gold Coast.

That's just patently ludicrous but by all means keep doubling down and explain to me why that is the case.

No. Fremantle Football Club is a franchise from 1994. Check your own Wikipedia page you referenced

I showed my 9 year old my 2010 Premiership polo shirt and said I wanted another one with 2023 on it.
He said "13 years! That's way too long!"
Out of the mouths of babes........

As soon as that first tackle was laid I said 's**t. 2 weeks' then there was another. They can't get 1-2 weeks for one and another 1-2 weeks for another one...can they?

No sling actions and nobody’s head hit the ground. I’d be shocked if they get cited.

Do we have a statue of Peter daicos? If not why not? Not only was he one of our best ever, but he’s given us two stars, surely that’s statue worthy.

Ps. Maynard tackles like a demon

Maybe he has some illegitimate children hidden away somewhere.

True but still better than 32 (years).

Seems to happen every season. I might sound a bit paranoid, but we always seem to have a run of tough matches leading into the finals. Whereas some other clubs seem to ease into the finals with 2-3 easy kills. Conspiracy theories.

Tough games are better imo. It keeps you sharper for when it lifts in finals.

Who cares if he said that, think port should already know we are on top for a reason, we are playing with the attitude of a top side as well

 

[Quicky]

I'm unclear from reading this thread whether the cue was in the rack?

We're all entitled to our own opinions though aren't we? When oppo players have said similar stuff about us before a match it's usually backfired for them.

 

[Big Bryza]

Average game from Nick Daicos.

Yeah sorry I wasn't having a go at you, I just don't think it matters if he says that, he's but saying they are s**t, just we are good

Easy kills are good if they are against teams you are likely to play in the finals.
If we smash Port again next week they'll be damaged goods.

 

[ElliottsMaggies]

I just hope he's not suspended. And our footy does the talking next week and we win

 

[Big Bryza]

Didn't stop Marvel being sold out for the Matilda's v France friendly.

Sold out like our 42k sell out against the Dogs.

Empty seats everywhere at Marvel last night.

Bruzzy is a man on a mission.

Port will be worrying about their own backyard next week because they know what's coming for them.

Suspended for what?

I literally typed that out for you in my previous post .

Stop dodging... Answer this: How does that mean they don't draw from Fremantle's football heritage and supporter base from the WAFL? Why do you think they got the franchise in the first place? They are basically the same as Port except for the fact they had 2 WAFL teams running around.

I'll put it this way for you. Fremantle has supporters who are in their 90's who have supported a Fremantle team in the WAFL since the 1930/40's and are now passionate Dockers supporters. Are you telling me that has nothing to do with Fremantle being the Fremantle Football club and representing Fremantle and it's football heritage? If it meant nothing they would have been West Coast supporters wouldn't they!

How are Fremantle as irrelevant as Gold Coast? Give me your reasoning.

 

[ElliottsMaggies]

Suspended for what?

Couple of tackles in the first qtr where the players head clearly hit the ground. I'd be super surprised if at least one wasn't looked at, considering the precedence already set this year.

I sincerely hope Hinkley's cockiness of resting so many players this week and how that panned out has totally stuffed up their momentum for next week.

What did he say that was a personal sledge toward Port?

He simply stated a fact that wouldn't require a rocket surgeon to figure out.
