The club will be celebrating the 2003 Grand Final with a 2003 G F team parade, i dont know in what round. I suspect it will be the round when Claremont has a bye so Seaby can attend.
Would Seaby actually be welcome mate?
I agree..Fark Seaby, I would rather he did not attend..
I dont know, he promised the club he was playing for WP and twelve hours later he changed his mind.
I have no time for these turncoats…like Troy Wilson and Symmons they are all tossers..
Symmo was alright.. Bronte offered him big money and he took it.
It is a business these days and you have to go with the money because once that big injury comes along no one wants to know you.
Shit if we all tried to crucify players who changed clubs we would have a big job in hand.. Move on. Do you want to start with a few legends from the early days?
Short memory my old mate
Symmo was a mad East Perth supporter so he would of moved for two bob. Wilson moved on because the club were very very late in player payments.
As bad as it is too see a good player go, you can’t blame them for looking after themselves. West Perth have Tsken a couple back in the day in the quality of Christian Kelly and James ferguson. Spiro mallis did come over but that should probably be left alone. Either way money does talk and most individuals would be the same
Let’s be honest our salary cap when divided between the league players is not much. Yes one or two players will get a bit more but how much really does the top player get?
AFL listed players, especially ones who have been in the system for a while would have set themselves up pretty well one would think and an extra $10K or so from a rival WAFL club wouldn’t be the difference. But obviously to some it is. Disappointing really.
Both Symons and Wilson were offered $30k each, the Ferals alignment with the Eagles in 2000 freed up plenty of recruitment dollars because they had 10-15 Eagles listed players obviously being payed by their AFL club.
This will happen again if there is no salary cap this time around, the Ferals keep saying that the last flag in 2002 had nothing to do with the alignment, horse shit ! The damage was done when they recruited these top line WAFL players prior, you can add Russell Thompson, Ryan Turnbull etc to that list, any others players you blokes can think of ?
Mascoulis has signed for WP !
Good get there Leedy, great player if he can stay injury free, I think he has hammy problems..
Yeah Falcon, he showed some good signs (in particular the goal v the Ferals in the 1st round to put us in front). I have a sneaking suspicion that he was not up to the rigours of the AFL work load, should be good for us though !
I believe there is only one sign in the boys change room. FRANK STOCKLEY OVERWIEGHT. Had a chat with a fellow in the media. His opinion is that media coverage of the WAFL will diminish from this year and the media believes that the WAFL has swayed to two clubs and thats all the media will be interested in.
That nails it in one post!
So what has happened to that great promise from Nisbett & Rosich then that there would be greater media exposure if Freo & WCE got their way??? Only a fool or anchorman would believe the rhetoric that comes from those 2 clowns!!
