Bruise free footy didn't help Sheed.

Who wrote that article? None of that was news. Of course WC players will play bruise free footy. They couldn't give a fat rats arse about the jumper and most of the players probably don't even know who Craig Wulff is. The situation is a shambles and an embarrassment. I think the best thing is for Freo to continue with Peel because they are irrelevant and WC bring their own team in to even the comp up to 10 teams and EP can eventually get some pride and respect back

I agree 100%
Victorians still laugh at West Aussies because of the way we bailed out the vfl and then allowed it to be called it the AFL!

Interesting story. No surprises though. All EP supporters feel the same. Wonder what Dean Turnip and Bronte Hewson think now of there decision

G, Why are you talking about the PFC? They are not mixed up in this mess and I doubt ever will be

The reaction to EP's defeat on here has been quite interesting, especially given that most of the comment has been from people whom don't even support the club. The fact is they have lost one game, and there not even the first club to lose badly when a favourite son has a milestone; many clubs have done that, including Subiaco in big games for Neil Taylor and Phil Lamb years ago. Let us wait and see where EP finish on the ladder before making a proper analysis; after all, they have never finished lower than third as the alignment club, which is hardly a shambles.

The point of the story by Brendon Foster Ark was that the Royals seem to be a play thing fir the Eagles, I have no doubt the Royals will win many games and probably finish top 2-4 on the ladder. But there is a clear divide between what both parties want, East Perth want to win Premierships and the Eagles need a training ground for their depth players. How do you convince the Eagles to get their players to want to win at all cost for the Royals?
That is the hard part

Good article by Foster , but tbh anyone could see it, on the other hand if the Royals were dominating playing like a German Band beating the world - we would be saying its a disaster as well. Anyway it look at it its a set up to help the two local monsters.

That is 100% kocher & bonafide


Yep give it a little while longer, but I dont think they will intro knew teams, two clubs will be absorbed and taken as full reserves teams, name change the lot.

Peel will be one, no prizes who will be the other.
