Former Rio Tinto CEO Tom Albanese is available no doubts the Eagles also interviewed him for the position hey grump but he just came up short of Dick Turner for the role!!!

As I said suppose all ya want but at least make the quotes, albeit from the The Worst, accurate.

Just think abt the added sponsorship that he has access to, mmm, as opposed to being bankrupt and having a tax bill, are you changing the club name the Capones!

The Eagles sponsors are the same as their Reserves teams sponsors they are the one club now there is no EP anymore ..that is the reality grump!

Funny I have not seen an agenda for a meeting of ALL members to change the name, song or colours,

There ya go again with supposition and thoughts that have no foundation in reality, mmm perhaps you could use it find another name for your club could they be called Lehmann Bros, The ponzies or The WA inc's

Haha as if Eagles reserves team members would be consulted on about anything like the decision made to become an AFL reserves team in the first place all done & dusted by Nisbett & Howson & you old EP clowns told it was happening after the ink had already dried on the contract!
You better get used to it grump as the Eagles members dont have a say in any way that club is run & so it will be the same with their Reserves team now!
Stop living in denial champ!

what denial, I don't like it as much as anyone but as I keep reiterating suppositions and opinions based on unfounded crap are useless,

Oh I don't live in Alexandria or Port Said but I am a realist!

I will throw in a large house on the harbour with good enough acoustics to sing opera in too for grump 58!!

Really interesting to see the reactions, a poor attempt at humour to hide your embarassment at being wrong!

I can live with it but seems you cannot,

So selling things you don't own to cover the debt and avoid the shame of merging with Perth or Souths as the case maybe!

So the Eagles Reserves team's CEO (replaced by Nisbett's mate) & Fremantles Reserves team's CEO (waiting to see if a Rosich mate gets this gig) both resigning within days of each other is just purely coincidental hey grump?!
Why does the word gullible spring to mind about grump!!

Hard call ok AFL but EP as well...Jury is out but seems like a fair call? AFL Approved of course

Dean Turner (born 6 October 1959) is a former Australian rules footballer who played with Fitzroy and the West Coast Eagles in the Victorian/Australian Football League (VFL/AFL).

Turner came to East Perth from the Boyanup Capel Dardanup Football Club in rural Western Australia (now the Eaton Boomers). He made his Western Australian National Football League (WAFL) debut in 1978 and won the F. D. Book Medal as East Perth's 'Best and Fairest' player in 1981.

Fitzroy acquired his services in 1984 and he spent three seasons with the VFL club. He appeared in four finals and in 1986 had 361 disposals. A utility, he was often used on the wing.[1]

He joined the inaugural squad of the West Coast Eagles in 1987 and played 17 games that year. He retired after playing in West Coast's preliminary final loss to Essendon in 1990. During this time he also appeared for East Perth and finished with 143 WAFL games.[2]
