Warnock to return to Perth... In round 14

[mightymightyblues]

ROBERT Warnock will brace for a hostile reaction when he returns to Subiaco Oval for the first time to meet his old side Fremantle in Round 14 next year.
The new Carlton ruckman is scheduled to clash twice against the Dockers in 2009, including a first-up meeting on the Gold Coast in Round 7.

The 206cm giant’s return bouts against the club he left amid acrimonious circumstances this year will be a highlight of a mostly favourable set of fixtures for Fremantle and West Coast.

However, ex-Eagle Chris Judd won’t have to worry about coming back to the west. The Blues are inked to play West Coast just once, in Round 10, at Telstra Dome next year.

Gee thats huuuge news!! Bet the Perth press were jumping from their seats when the fixture was released.
But how can they predict that Judd will be injured or unavailable against Freo, as he 'won't have to bother' about traveling to the west?

The reaction we get is always hostile regardless
That is why people like Pyro, HBF and I are the ones you want to be around in case of trouble!

All guns blazing?

I'm sure he will have the last laugh

Very much looking forward to the "return bout" in 2009 Guns. As I have said, already started looking at flights.

Will double my efforts to get there for the game....Bring it on.

Bit of a shame really if one of the highlight's in Freo's draw is the return of Warnock. The kid played what 20 games?

 

[Revenge I Seek]

I can feel the liver already taking some punishment... ah well, when it's winners' piss the pain is worth it.

Guns, do you reckon there's a chance the WABLUES will do a Saturday night dinner function before the round 14 Freo game on the Sunday? Time 'til bounce: 253 days, 14 hours, 38 minutes... seems... so... far... away :|

 

[WeAreHatedAgain]

Hostile reception?

Come on

Freo supporters are so ignorant and dumb

This is what they will be saying during the game

"Gee that big guy for Carlton is killing us.....I wish we had someone like him"

They will also be saying this as they are leaving the game

"Harvey has to go......can't coach......we can't keep getting thrashed each week"

Sounds like a good plan....Hopefully Guns doesn't do the dance of the flaming @rseholes again...

 

[Revenge I Seek]

hahahaha! no shit?!

 

[jackoisno1]

It will be sold out and you know why?
Because the Judd is coming back to town and everyone there loves him

 

[blue gunslinger]

Not sure what the WABlues will do. Also depends on what Melb dictates to us with regards to availability of coaches, players etc
Hopefully a meet and greet, dinner perhaps Sat, gathering pre-game and gathering to celebrate post game
With increasing numbers it has become a problem getting venues big enough to cater for us that are close enough to Subi oval that we can get to the game in an easy manner
I think the Italian club did a pretty good job but if we have it there again I will make sure the delivery of food is more prompt so we can get going on time.
Worst comes to worst get together at HBF's hotel room. Always plenty of action when the mod hits the road!

 

[4blues]

Looking at flights too, should be a great weekend, always a good time in Perth.

 

[Gibba]

Didn't the WA fans applaud our "effort" against WC a couple of years back? Interesting how times have changed.

 

[blue gunslinger]

If you are talking about the game when we were about 10 goals ahead and got beat
Cannot tell you - most of the WABlues were in tears and I just had my head in my hands
Don't want to feel that pain again. Liked last year much better!

Sandilands anyone?

You are seriously over-rating this kid if you think he will challenge ruckman like Sandilands next year, maybe in 2-3 years but he won't be a world beater next year.....

 

[BLUE BLEEDING]

i think it meant that judd won't have to go back to WA to play west coast.

Sandilaands is a crab........when does he ever tap it to advantage?

 

[Bomba Sheldon]

Oh well they will have to get over it sooner or later, they did alright out of it with 2 draft picks.

Seriously though you cant blame the kid for wanting to get out of that hole of a club.

yep, 44 points up at one stage and weagles clawed their way back - we snatched defeat from the jaws of victory!
I've been here over 22 years, you cannot EVER bag any weagles or dockers doings whatsoever. fans applauded our effort when we went down by 10 oints (i think) but if we'd won theen they would have made all the excuses in the world.
anyone see front page of today's 'west australian'?
major whinge about the draw for the two local teams (sigh)
life goes on....................

Hope ya not staying at one of those crappy joints on Great Eastern Highway.. (exiting Perth Airport)

 

[thylacine60]

Is there still a Leach Hwy? I lived in East Freo and that's the way I went to the airport.
