So here we have the build up and preview I think a lot of us having been waiting the whole year for. The Bombers have injected a new coach into the mix against us this season and it is none other than our favourite crybaby Brad Scott. Poor Brad, falling to us in a Prelim final, losing his mind...
I'm going to state that I consider the AFL to have become a fully professional organisation for teams in 2000.
The Eagles have just lost to a team that was 18th on the ladder with a % of 60 by 116 points. I have seen the lows of Carlton, Essendon, GWS, GC, Freo, Richmond and even teams like...
So it's been a rough week and here we are all for the preview which has turned out to be the bearded god's final game.
I'm happy that it's against the Crows as I feel there is a lot of mutual respect between the two clubs. We only need to look back to the game following the passing of Phil...
Good morning ladies and gents. I'm going to be in Cebu for our round 6 match for some business and was wondering if anyone knew of anywhere to catch the Port game. Now that is the easy one. I'm going to be in Boracay on pleasure for our round 7 match against richmond and I really want to see...
Seniors best football is up there if not the best football of all time.
Ablett's best football for a long time was very consistent and top 2 in the league but his peak performance and impact on games probably isn't the best of all players during his career. Judd 04-06 was on another level and...
So it's that time of the year again boys and girls, the most holy of weekly previews, that where we adhere to all things brad scott week related. Random hissy fits, tantrums when you don't get your way, standing on the corner rattling a tin to pay to keep the lights on, being perennially s**t...
Gents i have the opportunity to buy 3 eagles memberships on this wing for season 2018 and potentially ongoing. Due to just breaking up with my partner and my son being too young I only need 1 of them. Is anyone interested in the other 2.
Be warned, I yell a lot, am a passionate eagles...
Well, seen as it's preseason and everyone seems to think it's a good time to give my favourite small forward some s**t I'm going to start my own thread.
Both M.Allen and myself both love LeCras and think he's a top bloke.
Good with the ladies.
Good with a fishing rod.
Good around the big...
What is posted below is a facebook post. I thought i would share it here to see if there is anything we can do as some of us who are 'obsessed' and not just 'fans' have some contacts, we have people who post here who are involved with the club and some of us work or contract to and have contacts...

And how do we fix it?
We're short a Shuey. The Shuperman is amazing and greatly underappreciated by other clubs and the media. Our midfield however right now is short of a second A grade mid in the prime and short a nicnat. We solve those 2 and we solve a lot of our problems.
The way i see it...
This is just my opinion however i firmly believe that the afl is to blame for the increased cases of concussion particularly among younger players. Paddy McCartin received another head knock today in a VFL match with his head bent over the ball.
People will ask how is this the fault of the AFL...
What are peoples thoughts on a good bar to watch our game next Saturday. Maybe a bit of a bigfooty catch up. However it would have to be somewhere that doesn't sell vodka cranberries as they're about as manly as supporting the dockers and they can't have a max age limit or Keyser can't come...
Good evening ladies and gentleman, I am starting the thread and looking to run a mock draft for this year. For those interested please signup below. We may even run more than 1! A little similar to the player sponsor thread posters will be sorted for a position via their time on bigfooty and...
Surely there are enough of us to gather some semblance of intelligent conversation here. Or we could all just post pictures of things more exciting than this offseason.
Classic Meatball Sub
BBQ Ribs
Tomb Lamb looking east.
Mark Evans..... What can we say. On the AFL website this morning he wants to look at trialling 16 or even 15 a side for the AFL. What are peoples thoughts? How would it change the game? How would people respond?
I know how i would respond and it's very simple. If it were to happen the last game...
So it has come to pass that we have seen a serious cross contamination of supernatural forces, themes and fantasy come to pass and the fate of a galaxy rests within the hands of a select bunch of superheroes playing something we commonly refer to as 'footy'.
Luckily for the good guys in the...
Sorry for intruding just wanted to see if any of you from the west were interested. I bought a ticket today for this weekends game but have since been given one for free with friends. Just want to get close to the money back on it. Ticket cost 51.65 so will take 50 dollars for it.
Section 105...
Hey guys i have a spare ticket for anyone interested. I bought a ticket today but have since been given one for free with friends. Just want to get close to the money back on it. Ticket cost 51.65 so will take 50 dollars for it.
Section 105, row FF, seat 5. Basically just a few rows behind the...
I just wanted to bring up something that has been gnawing at me for months. Is finishing top 4 and winning the qualifying final now a disadvantage? Or at the very least of no benefit at all? With there being a break of 1 week between finals and then the qualifying final winners have another week...
Masto and priddis re-sign to extend contracts. Masto for 3-4 years afaik and pridda for 1 extra. Discuss!

So here it is ladies the 2016 best 22 thread. What will change for your team, what will stay the same. I can see some significant changes in going back to having 4 on the bench in particular i think having 2 rucks will be back in vogue and we'll see players with great running capacities given...
With Jetta's response to Goodes being booed yesterday there have obviously been some interviews with said players and I was absolutely disgusted with Jetta's opinion and response.
When asked about the booing he said "The booing was a disgrace, I was sticking up for goodesy and the crowd needs...
So it's come to that time of year boys and girls when everything settles down, our list is set for next year and we have had all of the pre christmas hype with the boys getter bigger, faster and more omnipotent all from the powers of 45 minutes a day, jubilant masto's and such.
So where does...
Just for everybody on this thursday morning i'd like to point out some actual good news for once. Clubs, players and supporters will all have a huge sigh of relief and a big smile at an injury. Being happy about an injury is evil, preposterous and immature you say?
Not when it happens to...
It's coming up to that time of the year again guys and as nobody has stepped up to organise it i guess i may as well with whoever organised it last year being able to take over at any stage. At this stage just taking names of people interested as well as your overall rankings as well pls. I'm...
The great tackle master, best selwood and first afl player to ever record 200 tackles in an AFL season. Congrats mate and worst comes to worst you have a hotter mrs than joel and get to play with men rather than mincy pussycats.
Plays his 50th game this weekend and as probably his biggest fan would just like to pump up his tyres a bit. While i dont think he'll end up being an out and out star of the competition i do firmly believe he'll pick up an all australian jumper over the journey, become a premiership player and...
"WEST COAST is poised to offer coach John Worsfold a new deal in the near future that would make the dual premiership captain the club's longest serving coach."
http://www.afl.com.au/news/newsarticle/tabid/208/newsid/118596/default.aspx
Despite all the doubters and people questioning you and...
Now i know it's only the nab cup and i know this is absolutely flogging a dead horse but is it only just me who thinks its an absolute disgrace that a sporting final of any sort, particularly the most popular sport in Australia is on a 3 hour ****ing delay into the second biggest supporting...
