Told you so!!!!!!!
WCE offer a job and WAFC will allow him to not return to PFC.
Weak as piss.
So much for equalisation.

this is just not a good decision
given the recent on-field results this case demanded a return to Perth footy club and the protection of the original club's ties to a returning player

Where was this reported DF? Can you provide some more details.
Absolute disgrace and further makes a mockery of comp if true.

The West Australian this morning.

I would be asking did he really wish to return to the Perth footy club?
Surely he could have returned if he's wanted to?
Just asking.

Don’t give him a clearance,he’s a Perth player and needs a clearance.
Make it tough,he’ll get there anyway but let’s make it difficult.
Make those weak excuses for footy people at the WAFC work for a change.

I agree.

Totally agree 30+. If WCE want him so much make them wait. Wont stop him going eventually but make them well aware that PFC is not happy but if he must go we want maximum transfer fee allowable.
Then watch the WAFC come out with some new edict that PFC are not eligible for any compensation at all.
Whatever the result this may become a classic "precedent" case for future ex WAFL players coming out of WCE and Dockers and wanting to play for their AFL teams' ressies..

Absolutely.
Stinks.

I agree with others, make him ‘come back to Perth as per the rules’ and then if West Coast want him negotiate and transfer from there.

Is it a precedent or did the same thing happen with Wellingham?

Be interested to hear a club update from anyone attending members forum tonight.
