Spoke about how her interview went for a few hours and it was mainly AYRES who was doing the interviewing. She star...

I honestly believe RL coached to exact plan that he rated the list. He recruited to win a flag and because we failed by such a small margin people now say he has left the list in bad shape. IMO he had no choice but to take the punt as we hardly have a flag winning culture. It was always going to be...

Tony, is that 12kgs that he needed to or didn't need to lose? And yes, please let us all know if he gets 'Gwilted' or even 'rookie Gwilted'.

I still admire Ross, I don't like the way he left our football club but so be it. I think Freo will play in a grand final in the next three years. I hope so! And I wouldn't even begrudge Pav, or even the poor man's Milney (Hayden B) winning the Norm Smith. Then once that's done, it'll be onto the r...
