The boys really stepped up their intensity at training today preparing for Sundays matches. Heath Black was among those spectating. I overheard Barra say he thought it was the best training session of the year and they didn't have the cameras there to capture the footage.
Roberton appeared...

Perth managed to do well out of this! They should get a lot of games out of these guys, this year at least.
The Dockers play two matches in the opening round of the NAB cup. Each game has 20 min halves.
West Coast v Hawks
Hawks v Freo
Freo v West Coast
The Bombers have suggested that they may play up to 40 players in the first two NAB cup matches, with a 90 minute break between their matches...
It seems we have a new scholarship holder in NSW. A 16 year old key position player by the name of Thomas Head. Does anyone know anything more about this kid?

It seems our recruiters have managed to lock away another one by trading pick 38 for the Gold Coast's pick 44 and picking up Tendai Mzungu from the Perth football club. Great stuff!

I was reading an article in the Herald Sun where an analyst created a formula to assess the draft success rates for AFL clubs between 2004-2007. This doesn't take into account player trades. We ranked 15th in that period...
Peter Bell finished fourth in the Champion Data top 20 players in the last 10 years. Bell averaged 116.7 points per game. This saw him finish ahead of Judd, Cousins, Lappin, Black, Koutoufides, Abblet, Voss, Hird etc
I always thought Bell was underrated. It shows just how important a player...
I'm one of many that lives local to Fremantle. I wander down to Fremantle Markets every weekend to get my fresh fruit and vegies. Every week on a Sunday morning without a doubt the oval and car park area is littered with broken bottles, stubbies, cans and cartons of beer. It was particularly...
I heard McManus talking to Grover this morning about the worlds greatest shave. I think the big bushy beard is coming off! And there was 10 other dockers ready to do the deed too... One name that came up was Mayne... But his mum was trying to talk him out of it...
Did it happen? Anyone...

How many of you got done with an April fools prank this year? How did you get done?
I just saw Richard Branson / Virgin & Google prank and it's freaking hilarious.

Harvey said in his press conference the other day the first trial game to be played next month in South Africa will be largely an under 24 team, with a few acceptions. There is no agreement for Carlton to do the same.
Anyone willing to have a shot at this and let us see what that team might...
I'm over in Philadelphia at the moment, and although it's unlikely, does anyone know a pub or somewhere else I could go to watch the game this weekend? I hate missing my dockers games! :)
How will this affect our forwards and more specfically Pavlich? Introducing Tarrant will already give him more of a chance up forward and create a nightmare for the opposition, but Pavlich in particular is forever getting those borderline decisions go against him. Pavlich as expected will...
Well I am officially the worst footy tipper on this planet. So that being said, I went to the http://afl.allthestats.com/misc/ladderpredict.php website and put in my predictions with the following outcome:
1 Crows 76
2 West Coast 68
3 Collingwood 60
4 Demons 56
5 W Bulldogs 56

Congrats to Jeff on playing his 200th game this weekend! He's one of my favourite players, and my kids love him. Here's hoping he'll celebrate it in style!
The AFL has launched the dream team competition for 2006, I just created a new league if anyone cares to enter named 'western weirdos'. Feel free to sign up at the following URL.

This is beyond a joke now. Commentators call Justin Troy Longmuir, journos the lot. It's not as if the 2 are new to the footy scene.
Todays west states that CC expects both Black and Pav to be back for the game against the pies. I'd expect as many as 3 changes with Polak maybe to come into the side also, Warren will probably make way for this to happen, but who are the other 2 likely to miss?
I hope Buckley gets a run...

Great to hear the big man get a positive wrap. His last 5 matches of the season have us all VERY excited where I personally thought the big man turned a corner.
Just how good can the big man get? I think this will be...

This article in todays sunday times shows Peter Bell will play on this year with groin problems in 2006 and perhaps longer. Is it time for the coaching staff to change his role to that of a small forward to...

This is fantastic news for the club off the field, and it was expected anyway. I think we'll be amazed at the turnaround the club will make over the next few years (off the field at least).
Now if we...
A great point was made this week by Sheedy with the new rule changes.

I just started a google fight between Fremantle Dockers and West Coast Eagles, we got hammered (dockers)!
