Something I like about the Bulldogs' supporters is that they are humble In victory and gracious in defeat. There's also great mutual respect between our clubs. Thanks guys.

I'm amazed that there are people still peddling the theory that it was Malthouse's fault ! The year before KJ took over, we finished 6th. The following season with Ken Judge, with basically the same players it was a total disaster ! KJ was never a good coach. He was a failure with Hawthorn and a...

This is a great day for West Coast Eagles supporters ! Now the reason for the title of this thread is related to what I said a few years ago. I had the privilege of following step by step our premierships in 1992 and 1994 and when in 1995, the Dockers where born, I believed that from then...

And we still don't know how to win in Melbourne ! We lost the Wizard cup final in Melbourne, and now Collingwood. Until we learn how to win in Melbourne our chances of a premiership are minimal. Some people weren't paying much respect to Collingwood but I was a bit wary of this game exactly...

I expect Port Adelaide to improve and they may be the danger in September.

I also don't like the dockers and many of their followers, but some of them, specially the ones who visit our forum, have proved to be nice people and can be gracious both in defeat and victory. So I think we should at least treat them with respect.

Me too ! We have a better team on paper but they had the better coach on the night. It's no fluke that Pagan won two premierships. He's a brilliant coach and I feel that it won't be long Carlton will be fighting for a premiership. As for us, I don't know what to say. I was confident that we...

I agree, but I want the Eagles to win both. The Wizard cup, though not the main course, is still important. A lot of team sports have at least two important competitions, so why not elevate the Wizard Cup to our FA cup ? It's still silverware if we win it. But in this case, a win can also add a...

For a few coaches "rebuilding" means "hey people we're playing crap but it's not my fault! It's just that we're rebuilding". It's often an excuse to justify bad results. Ken Judge used this excuse extensively and that's probably the main reason I hate this word. Every week KJ asked for...

I understand the draft quite well. In theory the draft is an equalizer so that in theory all the teams should have similar abilities to fight for the flag. That is not so, not because of the draft but due to poor planning, bad choice of players, bad coaches, terrible psychology, lack of...

This "rebuilding" mentality is very much associated with australian rules and it is often used as an excuse for failing. You don't see much of that in other team sports. The idea that a club should be subjected to be a second rate team for a few years, for the benefit of the future, is often...

We should go for the flag now. It may not be achievable but why wait to assert ourselves as contenders ? That's why I have always hated the word "rebuilding". This word should only be accepted in the context of continuous rebuilding, day by day, month by month and NOT "this year we can't aspire...

Yeah ! Let's postpone the punch ups for next season then. :)

Time for those players out of form at the Eagles to have a few punch ups. :)

Don't worry ! Chris Judd has already the Scott Fisher virus. For those who don't know, Scott Fisher is the current Wild Cats coach and was a great wild cat basketball player. First he was reluctant to come to Perth when he lived in Melbourne and played for the Melbourne Giants, but when he came...

In my opinion, Matera at his best was better than Judd is right now. Don't get me wrong. Judd will be even better that he's now and if he stays with the Eagles may be our best player ever, but right now, I don't think Judd is better than Matera was at the top of his game.

This is the article that explains why Mark Williams said what he said about Allan Scott. Major sponsor slams Port

If they don't want to give the job to Total Package how about telling us what are the conditions to be a moderator of this forum? And after that who are the ones interested in the job so we can vote ?

I haven't been around much and to be honest my first choice would go for Mead but since so many people are voting for Total Package I decided to pay more attention to his previous posts and he seems to be a good choice. These are my votes of the round :) 1. Mead 2. Total Package 3. Voice of...

I was suprised with VoR's post as I couldn't see any of his usual "one week at a time" thing. Then I realized VoR wasn't really VoR. I think you should have copyrighted your abbreviation. :) Anyway I suspect Essendon will beat Melbourne next week so I hope we can at least beat Sydney so we don't...

I don't hate any docker. They're just players doing their best for their club. I just don't like the club. I still think the Eagles represent Fremantle more than the Dockers. Our coaches are from Fremantle and many of our best players from the past and present were and are from Fremantle. In...

I agree VOR. It's very important that we don't take for granted the game against Carlton. If we do I wouldn't be surprised it they came here and beat us. If I'm not mistaken Carlton beat Adelaide in Adelaide after the Crows had a good win away. This seems to be the year of very unexpected results.

I also think Woosha should be given more time but I have this feeling he's a bit lost at the moment and he may have run out of ideas on how to motivate the players. He also seems to lack tactical skills. I don't agree much with the idea that we're playing badly because we're still a young...

I find some of the comments made about Worsfold very interesting, specially the one that says that he's a good motivator but not so good tactically. Whatever it is, and judging by the ravings about our team at the beginning of the season, many of them made by people who post in this board, by...

Hitting the panic button ? I'm as calm as ever. I'm calm and my mind is clear because I feel I have already seen what is coming. I'm just saying now what I think many will say in a couple of years.

Mead here we go again blaming Malthouse for someone else's inability. The lack of KJ coaching skills was also and ridiculously blamed on Malthouse, because in some people's mind Micky was responsible for our so called "poor recruiting". In fact Malthouse did a fantastic job even when he...

Mead I will appologize to anyone if I'm wrong and believe me I wish I can apologize to Woosha and to you, but unfortunately I don't think I will. I never apologized to anyone about what I said back in 2000 in regard to Ken Judge, because from the start I was always right on target. Now I...

Eagleskickass, good points on your post though you disagree with me. Now about Fremantle or the Eagles winning a premiership I don't think so. Neither WA team will win a premiership for many, many years if ever and in this statement I will make your words mine and say "in time, you'll see why".

Hi Mead. You shouldn't be embarrassed. Just brave enough to accept that there are no sacred cows as "no1bankteller" said. Now did I say sack Worsfold ? Even knowing that we are up for a rough road ahead, I'm not yet asking for his head. I'm just stating what to me seem obvious. He is not a bad...

Two sacrileges in fact ! First I would like to say that years ago, I was probably one the the first who went on record asking for Ken Judge to be sacked. In fact when he was invited to be our head coach I was totally dismayed by the decision and knew it would be a disaster for us. It was...
