It was a lame attempt at humour at how you walked "past" the bakery and I called a pastie a passedie instead.

North so broke they can't even afford their own online board and are forced to sublet from us.

And the WC board's the logical spot to come for an answer!
Anyway I'm off to the Pies board to find out if the Crows will beat the Saints this season!

I know but I have never been on the west coast board so obviously I clicked into this without knowing.
Fitzpatrick on ABC (replay of interview from last night)
Very open to alignment with Perth but looks very unlikely. Will persist with the WAFL side and hope they yet better concessions (good luck with that)
Simmo contracted till end of 2025
Been an external review into the spate of hammy injuries but looks unlikely to be a definitive answer of what the cause is
Club (and himself) were confident of pushing for the 8 this year
Not going back to a banner because of something about the environment (didn't really listen to this bit cos who cares)

Journo mentioned our low attendance last night (36k).
Only 20k attended optus the last time we played the suns.
The year before that 38k in attendance.
So while it suits the narrative, traditionally we dont draw a huge crowd against the suns.

Well you're here now so welcome, pull up a chair, complain about Peter Sumich!

No doubt terrible because apparently Bellerive is a terrible ground and should be shot.
If that's true about pushing for the 8, that's worrying.
I know every clubs aims for finals, but it was never going to happen this year.
This to me is the biggest cause of concern - the club had a 4-27 record from its last 31 games coming into this season.
Yet somehow it appears there was a widespread delusion that no longer existed and the club would magically win more than half of its matches this year.
The squad, coaching and conditioning staff were all largely unchanged.
Nothing indicated that 2023 should be any different to 2021 or 2022.
With 7 players aged over 31 before the end of the season, combined with the poor track record of injury prevention and management, there was ample room for a crisis of the proportions that we are currently seeing.
Any consideration of a finish outside of the bottom 4 was utterly groundless.
It makes me wonder what kind of reality these people are living in.
So we were no chance of the 8 fully fit?
Just to clarify, Fitzpatrick said that at the start of the year they thought they’d be pushing for the eight.
But agree it was borderline delusional - unless we had full availability of all players who would all play to the peak of their abilities. (And I don’t think even then would we have been a serious flag contender.)
