While looking for the pic found this article in the West from 8 months ago.
It is interesting to read these articles in hindsight

Somehow i made it through that interview without falling asleep though i found myself drifting in and out a bit. The boy has obviously listened to a lot of football interviews in his time and has all the cliche's ready to roll out. Riveting stuff, 3 and 1, we are on our way!!

WTF do you think he should have said Whitey????
"We're 3 and 1 and that is not good enough. We've got a long way to go to catch up and ATM we're struggling. Some big games coming up and I can see us sliding down the ladder. Probably favorites for the wooden spoon I'm afraid. I'm not getting ahead of myself but I'm more concerned about getting the chop than how we are travelling."

Getting the chop?? You've lost me on that one Smoker!

The bloke is as vague as shit and boring as they come, one monotone, no feeling no passion, never refers to an interviewer by name "How ya going?" "Thanks for having me".

"We needed to reassess where we are at"...."Changed our plan going forward"...."Players left to do other things", Yeh what was that? Play some good consistent footy at other WAFL clubs perhaps? And this pearler in the week leading up to our next game after we've had a bye....."We've had a torrid pre season and played in some close games so we decided to freshen the players up both physically and mentally". Gee other WAFL clubs must have had their pre season in different climate and took things easy. I reckon that's just what we need leading into a game against EP who have embarrassed us on many occasions the last few years. I would have thought not playing on the weekend was enough to freshen the players up......but no they need a day off during the week as well??

Never hear him taking any blame himself, it's always "We" when talking about past failures. Never gives anyone else credit, would have thought he might mention what impact Marty Atkins has had around the place and what impact two new assistant coaches have had alongside him? What about those off field changes?

I can't recall this club getting more behind a coach and throwing more resources and support for him both on and off the field.

Play some good consistent footy at other WAFL clubs perhaps?

Beside JKT the others have done absoletly zero...elari has had next to no impact on games. Cmon Johnno lift your game mate. Stop talking crap.

Elari booted 2 goals and named in their best on the weekend, hasn't set the world on fire perhaps but has been a consistent contributor, Rogers missed a couple of earlier games with injury but has figured prominently in the stats in their reserves the last couple of weeks. 21 possessions and 3.2 out of 11.11 should see him make his league debut for the black and whites. Noticed also McDougall played for Subi reserves, just the 8 possessions which would indicate he maybe only played a half or still has some injury concerns.

Aaron Zucconi is playing for South Mandurah, Perth haven't cleared him, he is playing for them on a permit. Maybe you can find out for me how Ross Young and Leon Davis are going? JKT in career best form, smart move letting him go.

Give me something demon2013 or I'll have to do a Ross Lyon and sub you out early!!

Whats Rogers done at league level nothing - no one cares about reserves mate...

Doogs hasnt played a game at league level...its round 7 quarter of the season done and dusted.

Elari has been ok...nothing more than that....

Leon Davis didnt give a shit about the Dees, attitude was shit, opposed to Bateman good club man, even when out injured still comes to the games, is around the huddles...when playing always supporting, comminucating with others something Davis didnt do.

Young who cares, doesnt affect us, isnt playing for another WAFL team..so makes no difference to us. Cant do much about players leaving if they want to go home.

Zucconi hasnt been committed for a while...always overseaes travelling so no loss. A fully fit Zucconi with a full preseason would be good...but that hasnt happened.

JKT wanted out ...if you want out... go..pointless hanging onto people that dont want to stay...its like Elari didnt want to be at the Dees for a couple of seasons...so let them go and get people that want to stay.

Funny demons2013 all this tough talk about pissing players off who don't want to be here, then why did Perth refuse Elari a clearance last year and why has Zucconi been refused a clearance to play for South Mandurah? Like I said, Rogers missed the first couple of weeks with injury, he's had a big impact the last couple of weeks so don't be surprised to see him play this week and become a permanent fixture and cause Damo a bit of pain next time around.

Have been told Doogs will be on the park in the next week or two. Be interesting to see how he goes after run into the ground at Perth in his last season.

MR Duffy, SIR

Your monika Before the Bounce?
Is that abbreviated from "before the bounce where I was dropped on my head I used to have some intelligence"

I am pretty sure I read somewhere that the PFC didnt want your son - well at least thats what you intimated and he was hard done by. So please take you bat your ball and go home. You are not wanted here.

Doogs played ressies last weekend for about 8 disposals.

Spoke to him today & he said to me he needs a run or 2 yet.
