All jokes aside Marko, you are spot on. Swans were also known as the Magpies in their early days.

i heard a historian ( very good he was ) on ABC Radio on Anzac Day morning , and he touched on alot of topics relating to that And he said re the WAFL - that North Fremantle had a team in it , but with World War 1 - they lost half their forward lin…

All credit to Harley and the Eagles. Just shows what 22 players having a red hot go for most of the game can do. Dockers are just too inconsistent over the 4 quarters and have been for a long time.

I see in The West yesterday they had the player rankings for the derby. Now I'm sure most on here would agree that young Harley is going to be a very good player and quite possibly a great one but to have him currently ranked above Luke Ryan is an a…

"The Whitehouse has admitted that President Joe Biden's recent claim that his uncle was eaten by cannibals isn't true." :))

Does that first split round give the teams that played it some small advantage going into next weks full round? Certainly you would have to think that GWS, Gold Coast, Melbourne and Brisbane will have some sort of an advantage over their opponents w…

This went south real quick. Let me tell you what the problem is. Those that run the game think each licence is worth 20-30m. So in trying to find a buyer they want this headline sale number to underpin the value of the other franchises. However, a…

Careless Conduct - Severe Impact - High Contact = 3+ Weeks. But who knows with the lucky dip that passes as the AFL tribunal. Half the decisions are appealed and overturned anyway.

No prize for guessing who is Liam Henry's Manager. Colin Young of course as he continues every avenue to dismantle the Dockers playing list for his own short term financial gain. What is disappointing to me is that Longmuir retains Young as his Man…

Look old? Yeah mate players actually had to work as well as play back them. ;) And I can guarantee you they weren't getting a wax and a facial at the beauty parlour or their tips highlighted. Different world back then.

Funny thing is, how old most of them looked back then compared to todays players. Apart from Bob Johnson who was 30, they're all in their 20's.Most on here will remember Phil Manassa's fantastic running goal in the 1977 Grand Final. I always thought…

Got maybe Fred Casteldine Swans. Kevin Murray East Perth Les MUMME Claremont. Don’t even know if they are correct. Can you name them Marko. Bit before my time Fred Castledine, Bill Leuzzi, Kevin Murray, Les Mumme, Bob Spargo, Bob Johnson, Ray Sorrel…

I thought Langmuir was doing well with his squad. But for whatever reason he has not take. That next killer step. Agree Jum they have proven they can mix it with the best. When they fall away so much, it does point to the coach not being on the ba…

I only read the the West at lunch times at work Falc. So obviously missed today’s.The West does have the best story headline one liners though.On AFL 360 they showed one of the headlines “put it on my tab” in reference to Tabenar. :-B Albo's got c…

What did Freo get to that year all the owen jokes were doing the rounds??? 16, 17???? Lost the first 17 in 2001. It's not easy being a Freo supporter.
