Bigger than sept 11

Yeah, no.

 

[westy1]

Yeah, no.

Did any major sporting event get canceled as a result of September 11 ?
Did teams play to empty stadiums ?
Did millions of people be forced to stay indoors for weeks on end ?
Did people from certain countries get banned from entering Australia?
Did shows get canceled?
Not that I recall

Nat Fyfe interview on SEN worth a listen.

Biggest news from that was that it doesn’t sound like Hogan is too far away.

I give it 6 hours before someone is on here saying he's close to retirement to open a restaurant/cafe/sporting goods store/car dealership/crackhouse because they heard it from a friend of a friend who knows him

Every time I hear Fyfe do an interview I am reminded how lucky we are to have such an eloquent speaker as Captain of our club

I just heard that Hogan’s close to retirement to open a restaurant/cafe/sporting goods store/car dealership/crackhouse because I heard it from a friend of a friend who knows him. Legit.

Walters hinted similarly recently as did another player. Really hope this story had a good ending.

 

[Monument Hills]

I would too but he's just turning 14, so, you know, a little less enjoyable to be around than in past years.

 

[Take my logue]

****ing Tom Morris named the player.
Jesse hogan has it right.

‘genuine leech’

Nope...my ex got her way with pretty much everything in the relationship, including the dominant genes

 

[vidwhal]

I'm sorry but this three word analysis shit is worse than Barret's Sliding Doors.

I'd say a fingernail goes deeper hey

As expected. You’d want your captain to talk finals, especially preseason.
Not the old ‘lets be competitive and knock off a few’

Would love to see the article but this is my expectation too, on our trajectory under Ross we would have played finals this season, why should that change for the new coach?

Longy uses a defensive gameplan and Ross has set the foundation, we had the least points scored against us in the Marsh series so have shown that our team may not take too long to adapt.

My biggest worry is our injury list but if we can somehow overcome that then we need to be pushing for finals. Tucker is 5th year, Bray and Cez 3rd, Cox and Logue can shine this season. The growth needs to be shown this season.

Nat Fyfe has finals expectations for Fremantle Dockers

Jordan McArdleThe West Australian

Nat Fyfe doesn’t accept the word “rebuild” and is adamant Fremantle are preparing to play finals in their first season under coach Justin Longmuir.

The Dockers have been slammed by injuries to key personnel this summer and have not made a September appearance since bowing out to Hawthorn in the 2015 preliminary finals.
But writing exclusively for The West Australian’s 2020 Fremantle Season Guide, available free with Friday’s edition, Fyfe said the Dockers would enter the season as optimistic as ever about a return to the business end of the year.
“We enter every season thinking we’re a good chance to play finals,” Fyfe writes.
“I am also a pragmatic person. I understand our list profile and while you acknowledge where in the cycle we’re at, this competition, through equalisation measures, is showing more and more that it’s anyone’s to win at any time.
“We’re a club that is preparing to play in a finals series with everything that we do.”
It will be a new-look Fremantle taking the field in their round-one clash against Essendon at Marvel Stadium on March 21, Longmuir’s first official match at the helm since taking over from Ross Lyon.
Champions Aaron Sandilands and Hayden Ballantyne have retired, key defenders Joel Hamling, Alex Pearce (ankle), former captain David Mundy (leg) and luckless veteran Stephen Hill (quad) are sidelined, and a host of fresh faces are in the mix, including top-10 pick Caleb Serong and trade acquisition James Aish.
Many pundits have ruled a line though Fremantle’s finals hopes before the season has begun.
But Fyfe is relishing what he described as the “underdog mentality” and was “quietly optimistic” about what the group could achieve this year.
The Dockers skipper also shared his thoughts on the latest crop of draftees, Longmuir’s early influence and game plan and the challenges the team faces for the season ahead.
