haven't got any talls......howz 211 jnr going these days?....sure Chad will be a shoe in to lead Perths ruck in 2014.....Eyres, Leyendekkers, Borrett, Sandilands, Garstone, Busher and Moreno are all tall fellas.....not too sure why you guys are saying you look small......

I just think we are missing the big bodied 5year wafl ruckman! Eyres looks to have trimmed up so hopefully improve his jumping ability. Chad hasn't put any weight on and haven't seen leyndeckers yet. Borret will be good addition to ruck stocks. Although our experiment with ready made ruckman in the past hasn't worked I think we still need a n experienced tall.

Geez Freez, I gotta agree with you. Plenty of height coming through though very young and will need time. There are a few others with some height that you have not mentioned. We must not put too much pressure on them but allow them to show what they have got and let them find their feet.
It really isn't all doom and gloom as some suggest in regards to height..

First game at home against Claremont. Head to kalgoorlie for subi district game next year! Looking for new ground sponsor discussion happening with prospects. Talked about ground development, all involved now happy works commence next year on outer all complete by 2017. Asked by a punter whether the alignment will end up with Perth? His answer was who knows what will happen in the future but did say both east Perth and peel were selected as preferred because they were both broke and the least financial of all the clubs!

OK let's look at this. Atkins said that East Perth and Peel were the "selected clubs" for the host club deals. Please elaborate on that. Does that mean that other clubs were up for it. I think most WAFL people thought that Peel and EP just sold their souls and bucked the resistance of the other clubs. What is the truth here, were other clubs, including Perth, heaven forbid, also prepared to get into bed with the devil that is WCE. I am starting to have concerns with our current leaders of the club. A bit too WCE friendly for my liking.

I think Vince has already confirmed that we were not part of any discussions.

He has also said we won't in the future.

Who was the colts time keeper that passed away?

Brendan, one of the twins whos brother is called Brian.

Brendan was the smaller of the two.

Apparently died after picking up some sort of a bug - chest infection - post white water rafting in South America.

Terrible for his twin, his family and the club as he put a lot into the club.

Thanks TFAF Yes very sad news, I hope the club does something to recognise his efforts.
