The midget forward line doesnt work...cant work out why we wouldnt give someone like Guy Piggott an extended run at full forward to see if he can do something...Dennis is named at FF each week, he doesnt do enough, Cary and Etto also have not done enough...time for them to go.

Agree about Dennis, needs a spell in the magoos but disagree with you about Etto. He's having a real crack and his work rate is getting better each week. He knows how to make tackles stick with his rugby background he just needs to get his disposal efficiency up. I think he will get better. Cary I haven't seen him do much so he needs to step up.

Agree about Dennis.
At the game on Saturday i was trying to work out what his role was in the team??
I'm stll stuffed if i know,hes to small to be a KPP,doesnt take a grab or have a natural feel where the goals are????
Not a backman and not a mid.

Imo we have a few in the team with the same ?? over there heads in what are there roles in the team.

Trouuble is i didnt see much in the ressies that stands out especially the talls,yet again another season light on in talls,Kpp's and rucks.

Mills surely to come in this week for Wilkins.

How did Irons go in his first game back to the league side?

Tosser was full of himself and his self importance when we had him, his unwillingness to change his role for good of team at Swans and subsequent walk out highlights he over rates himself, has no regard for being selfless and playing a role and is a dick. McMahon copped a lot of flack over Elari leaving Perth, but I think now, combined with some of his previous off field stuff, we are seeing his true colours.
Prefer to stick with what we have have running through midfield, think Dene White coming back with give tremendous grunt in middle and fire things up.

Harding said that article was crafted to portray a certain angle. According to Stiffy Elari has lost passion for the game and it was a mixture of this and the role change that has seen him leave to go and play for Lancelin.

Colts are 8-zip everyone!!

That is outstanding.

This is where the club has failed in the past.
Colts success has ammounted for nothing in terms of senior success down the path.

Another area we fail in imo with colts players is the Indigenous players.
We always have a few good ones at colts level and very few go on to become league players.
South Freo,Claremont and Swans don't seem to have a problem with there indigenous players going on to play league footy.

Anyway great that the colts are going so well and congrats to this point to all involved.

out of interest is that Perth's colts side a "older' or "younger" side?...or a good mix of ages....just in terms of future success for the PFC, I reckon a lot of players who do well as an over age player in the colts, seem to not kick on when they graduate into the seniors.....always great to see a side/person/race horse keep their unbeaten run intact for as long as possible in any sport....touch wood with the state boys away the team can keep on keeping on.
