Such a disappointing day but I'm not surprised. Too many players have been out of form for a while but have not been put under any pressure to lose their place from players in the reserves.. Time for Earl to swing the axe and time for these players to go back and find some form in the Magoos.

I spent serious time last ningt trying to log into sportsbet to put $300 on WP. 4 to 1. Are you kidding I thought . WP own lathlain . I thought an $800 win would soften the blow. I haven't placed a be above $50 in my life but had a real feel about this. Any way apparently I had an old pass word that was not matching - they called me today .

We were terrible and fuck me 16 nil at lathlain makes me fucking sick paratactically to these fuckers that neither pay their way or let you watch the game from their shitty stand. You should have seen all the clowns enjoying themselves in our stand - not realising the irony

End of the beginning or beginning of the end time will tell. WP flogged us in the middle and checkered us with the overlap too often. Just avoided disaster against SF and SD with teams with a similar way of playing.

The result should remind people on here why some PFC supporters can't stand WP; cost the Demons flags in the 1940s as well.

That's your best ever post on here TFAF and you can thank me for booting about 4 of those fuckers out of our supporters area who had the fucken audacity to stand right in front of our President's lounge because our piss weak CEO won't do it. They asked me where are they supposed to go? FMD I said go up to the grandstand we don't stop you using it unlike your useless club. So off Gino and his clowns went after spitting the dummy.

I reckon City of Joondalup will put a new padlock on the gate at Joondalup Arena soon and next time we'll be playing them at Kingsway or the Wanneroo Showgrounds.

Nothing has changed. WP came to play today fully knowing that they would knock us off as they always do.
We cannot deal with hard running and fast spreading play.
Lost all three grades.
Very thin on the ground. I agree 4 or more players don't warrant a game.
Nothing in the ressies to get excited about except Jacob Payne must come into the side..So we have to persevere
with players who do not warrant selection.
No depth right through the club.

That said, having had unexpected wins against SF and C, disappointing to lose one which, on paper, we should have won. I'm not calling for wholesale changes, but some guys must under serious pressure. Dennis, as a permanent forward, has kicked one goal in six games. Smith had 7 touches and has been poor since the Eagles game. Eyres had 5 touches and not a single mark. Cary and Rogers also need to do more. For my part, I would bring in two of Payne, Henderson or Johnson for Smith and Dennis.

I agree with most of what you have said, except your assessment of Dennis. What he is doing is laying a lot of hard tackles and earning more of his possessions a little further up the ground. He has been a little inconsistent granted, however his attack on the ball and player keeps him in the side. Cary on the other hand has played 60 seconds of decent football for the year. For mine he is 1st to be sent down. 2nd under the pump has to be Smith. He played a great first game and everything went his way, but when the going gets tough he disappears and playing on a wing and averaging under 10 disposals per game is not enough output. Jaycob Payne has to come in this week for Smith or for the first time I will be starting to question Spalding's ability. I’m not too sure who to bring up next to replace Cary, especially with Ninja out possibly Penny or if Hansen can play as small forward he might be a good option.
The rest have done enough to keep their positions for now but the spot light is certainly aimed directly at a few players.

Yep. Earl has not swung the axe at the passengers over the past few weeks when he really should have. But it's not only those going backwards we have to give those who are in good form a chance to show it in hte league. For example, look at Marlin last year. He was kicking bags of 4, 5 and 6 goals as well as being the leading possession winner. Not one chance to show what he could do as a forward in league side when we desperately needed a tall forward. Now it looks like we are doing the same Payne. We will lose players like Payne, Roe, Gordon and Johnson if we don't value them when they are in form.

Doesn’t get any better,going to Moss street,isn’t a great place for us to play and win at.

Interesting month coming up that could put the coach and lack of quality recruiting in the spotlight.

For mine the loss as TN says exposes a massive undercurrent of poorly performing players that had been masked by some deserved bit lucky wins. Single out LD by all means, he has been unbelievably bad.
And bozo not far behind him. And garstone not far behind him.

That must have had hurt STD ??? 3 x ripper wins by the Falcons
