I'd be happy to be a Weagles supporter from a football standpoint.

As usual you blokes will drop down and grab Harley Reid and some other freak that everyone else underrates for some reason, and then will bob back up in 3 or 4 years with a new coach and a 28 year old Oscar Allen and win another flag, while the rest of us are holding our dicks celebrating our semi final appearances and win/loss records.

Its the West Coast way and has been since inception.

Yes, they can afford to be unstable.

 

[Enviable Tradition]

Yep. My mate who sits next to me at the footy said a few years ago "There's nothing crueller than hope."

Don't we know it as Port fans.

I'm trying to resist the urge as we speak after I promised never again under Ken in 2020.

Exactly bloody bastards just watch the gold in the money bin dip a few mms while they pillage the best youf for a few seasons then return to pluck another flag

Meanwhile we
Will still have Ken
Still not made a granny
Still making our community proud ….I guess

 

[NoddyHolder]

Ouch. Mitch Owens is in a world of hurt.

accidental, but haven’t seen someone that knocked out in a long time.

I haven't seen it but I expect the afl will find a way to cite Tom Jonas for it

How on earth do west coast have such an injury crisis, you'd think they'd be able to afford one of the best fitness departments

Carlton have good to brilliant top end but a gazillion spuds underneath.

McGovern and Williams on 1.5 million combined this season lol

The commentary team set the Daicos defence straight away and have him in the clear. No need for the MRO to even look at it.

Lol that was absurd.

Arguing he went for the ball, since when has that mattered?

If you hit someone high you get done.

The player had their head over the ball and he came in and hit them. Corrupt league.

“It’s a big ball to win”
Can someone shut Dwayne Russell up?

“Straight down the staples”

what does that even mean?

Down the spine! Like the staples in a book.

saying it once is clever, saying it every time a team goes through the middle is annoying.

It's not really an answer but even if there was a known person or group of people who could sort their injury stuff out the soft cap probably puts a lot of that out of reach.

That's what I wonder what is the point of making bucket loads of cash as an AFL Club.

If you're useless financially the AFL just give you money anyway.

You can make zillions but you aren't allowed to spend it anywhere so why bother.

"There are definitely some encouraging signs," Carlton coach Michael Voss said as the Titanic broke into two pieces this afternoon. "The ship has been in great positions for large parts of its voyage." "Some good things are happening," he said, pointing to the stern section of the Titanic. "That bit is floating just fine."

What I don't get is why they don't just bust the soft cap every year.

The AFL doesn't stop them, they just tax them if they do and West Coast can absolutely afford it.

How can you commentate AFL games every week an still not have a basic understanding of the rules? It's astonishing.

...and vaguely proud of it. The hubris and chutzpa is breath-taking. Wearing their ignorance like a badge... shameless.

 

[ElectricG]

How the hell did we lose that preseason game to this west coast side? Better yet, who was the gronk who said they reckon they’ll play finals?

I honestly think if we deliberately smashed the soft cap they'd penalise us with stripped picks.

I could 100% see them doing that to make their point.

To be fair we had zero injuries in March

They all piled on around round 3 and before that we looked ok. Not finals worthy but mid table at best.

The injuries have just stopped us in our tracks.

I hate using it as an excuse but they can't even train properly.

The Gronk was Will Schofield
