Re: Forum costs, maintenance and advertising

If it's decided that we proceed along the 'sponsorship' model I would propose that being a 'sponsor' gives that poster no more/less rights than anybody else.
Sponsorship would be viewed as merely a contribution to the costs of running the site.

Re: Did Our Backline Look Better W/O Howard?

well if he does not play who do we have to take Charlie Curnow? Not a great match up for either Battle or Wilkie. IIRC, when both McKay and Curnow play, Howard takes McKay and Wilkie takes Curnow. Given that McKay is out then Wilkie should go to Curnow and Battle to TDK, so hopefully we won't lose ...

Re: Site went down

I'm glad the problems are resolved.
I had a look at BF and didn't particularly enjoy it as much(compared to here)
Did notice many of our old posters on there though.

Re: Did Our Backline Look Better W/O Howard?

IMHO, whatever his faults, Howard is very important for our structure down back and until we have an alternative 200cm defender he is always going to play. I thought Battle didn't have a great game (defensively) and I attribute that to us being 1 tall defender short. Jimmy had a nightmare game again...

Re: Changing coaches has been a failure, IMHFO.

Re: Ross Lyon is #2

IIRC the Club had called a press conference to announce the re-signing. They thought that they’d done a deal with his management (Craig Kelly?) and Lyon had done deal with Freo (using a solicitor) behind the manager’s back because the manager was also representing Mark Harvey (incumbent Freo coach)

Re: Ross Lyon is #2

None of the board or coaching panel realistically thought we were going to win a flag this year. And to be honest probably thought the eight was a distant chance. Doesn’t mean they’re not trying to, just means they’re realistic. Why do you think they’ve played Sharman, back, on the wing, up front. ...

Re: Ashes comments

Is it true, as being reported, that Bairstow tried to run out Warner in the first innings in a similar way?
If so, then it's a bit rich for them to be complaining when it's done back.
