Interesting I just read a article on the dogs 1970's team and they where describe as relatively strong. During the 75 season they won 11 games to finish 2 games out of the finals.

That was all the 70'w was it BTB, or did you just pick a specific year?. I grabbed this off wikepeia.

Dempsey finished in the top 10 in the Brownlow Medal 13 times and to date has polled more Brownlow votes then any player in history

Doesn't have a footy brain and his inability to get in the right places to get the ball and mark the ball will stop him from being anymore than what he is today - inconsistent. Clarke continues to improve all the time and has now gone past Naitanui in all but centre bounces and we know how little they affect the result in todays footy.

Nic nat has a All Australian Jumper, does Zac???
Why do you think it has taken so long for him to develop, the answer is West Coast for some reason had that clown Eastaughs as their ruck coach. Did that crab play for your lot, then what the Fuk would he know. Guess who the coasters forward line coach is and you will understand why we cannot kick any goal.

No Zac doesn't, the Dockers don't have a cup (Derbys excluded) we don't have any Brownlow medals, so what is the reason you are on the Freo page all the time talking about Freo, do you get a hard on tapping the computer keys. Isn't the WC page exciting enough for you or are you just disappointed with your team at the moment, cheer up, we have had to deal with it for 19 years and we still support our team to the hilt. That may just be the difference between Freo supporters and WC supporters. I have the utmost respect for WC as a club and what they have achieved, a lot of their supporters, as is evidenced by all their posts on our page, would rather knock someone else when their team is in a mess.

cheers

Well said JB, but my mate BTB is just a good shit stirrer. BTB, the problem with NicnNat mate is he refuses to play in front. How many marks does Dean Cox take in front? Shouldn't need a ruck coach, his team mate is one of the all time greats. If you give up the front spot in footy you hand the advantage to your opponent. If you play in front, especially being a ruckman, you will invariably win free kicks, especially with the chopping of the arms rule these days.

The big screamer over the back might win you mark of the year and win you one game out 20 but if you don't hang onto it you have no control from that point on. Football is a simple game if you just do the basics well.

Dead set sick of this argument, but just to keep the Dorks going...
Now why did WCE re-sign NN on 800k?
a. because they like his hair and know he will need big bucks to maintain it? ..hmmm don't think so.
b. because they want him to be able to buy his family a new car and house? nah, not that either
c. because most of the other clubs were lining up to see if they were a chance to get him? yep...that would do it!
You dorks need to drop your blind hate for the WCE and look at things objectively

Adam Goodes is Aussie of the year too!!, its just a voting thing by buffons who "want" something diff to the norm in the side. Not saying NN didnt have a good year. Many (even) diehards here questioned his selection

At the end of the day Unka2 we question a lot of decisions made by others, we might not like it but the decision has been made and Nic Nat has his jumper

So for the intrusion, but I actual thought I was on the AFL general chat thread! You are lucky you don't have any cups, the cleaning of these things is never ending especially when you have 3!!!!!!!
I don't think there would be a difference between supporters, do you believe you are a better sort of supporter than any other club in the AFL because you have been shite for 19 years!!!!! Let alone a better supporter than West Coast supporter

DD I think I have found some new friends, give my regards to the boys back at the Perth thread
