TOPIC:

It's funny how Freo can play in a GF in 2013 and finish on top in 2015 after the qualifying rounds then go 16th, 14th and 14th in subsequent years under Lyon the super coach necessitating a "rebuild" when other teams regenerate as they go like Geelong (2 flags), Hawthorn (3 flags) and Sydney (1 flag) in the last 10 years and remain in and around the top 8 over the same period....go figure. What it highlights to me is the good work done by Mark Harvey in developing a competitive team until he was nutted and that the current guy really is a spud.

Ask Worsfold after 2006 (flag) second bottom and bottom in the next three. Unka and BC must be brothers, both have the mental power of a goldfish, up and down, up and down, up and down, where am I?

Don’t worry about our mate Pete JS, he’s always been....shall I say, a bit “out there” and sometimes with the pixies.

Whole topic has gone to The Pixies.

It's pretty clear the club has been in a rebuild for 3 years now, its been announced, were you not listening and now you have just discovered this. Just incase you don't quite grasp what is going on, all clubs go through re builds at some stage, usually over several years, because of retirements, delistings, injuries etc. Freo are one of those clubs who have entered into this process.

JB the insinuation is that even with two of the better mid fielders in the competition the club seems to be going through a rebuild ever since the GF appearance. It has recruited experienced players that have delivered not much, it has recruited from the draft and has got itself some very useful players that are abt to enter their 2nd year which we all know is often a make or break year.

I just wonder when the club will stop using the rebuild thing and accept that Lyon is pretty useless and that they need to find a coach that can take them to the next stage. It would be a good thing for all dorkers supporters and WA in general to have two sides in the top half of the league.

The topic is abt HB but he is to me an indication of the issue and the management (which includes the coach) that exists at Freo but that is my opinion and not one shared by anyone else.

Most amusing thing??, we point out FACTS and get called goldfish etc ( personal abuse, playing the man and not the subject). Now apart from the 2 manufactured teams, who both have been in the comp for a couple of mins, Freo have been in for what 20 plus years, and have consistantly delivered on 2 things...FAILURE & EXCUSES. not matter what a/man and jB say, Freo have produced zilch in flags.Keep going boys, one thing matters...FLAGS. But keep on trying to justify FAILURE

...but since won a flag in 2018, had you forgotten that?. Eags what 4 flags in their existence?? Can YOU recall that??

Man walks into a cafe with a goldfish under his arm and says to the owner. Do you sell fish cakes?
The owner says, no I don't. The man says, that's a pity, it's his birthday today. heh heh
