Duly noted.
Can I request one thing though, I have seen a few posters on here refer to the team I support as "wet toast" or "weagles" or even better as in this case "wet toast weagles" ... gets old very quickly.
I don't refer to any other teams that members on this site support in derogatory terms, just think it is very unnecessary/almost childlike.
Am I being overly sensitive? Possibly, but in my club's most challenging period (some self inflicted granted with our trading decisions) I don't think ridiculing is required/ essentially I feel you are kicking the club whist they are down which is poor etiquette in my book.
If the leadership/ moderator group on here feel my post isn't required then feel free to remove it/ your prerogative.
But I couldn't let another post like this slide by without comment, thanks

Calling a team or a player a derogatory term is just not necessary at any time. What may seem like a harmless term to the person posting, may be offensive to others. So a reminder to all to be mindful of that when posting.

Not one for rumour mongering, but i thought i just heard on Perth talk back that Hugh Dixon also isnt playing along with the other 300 outs we have got? relevant for me as I might need him on field this week. Equally could have been that he was the only ruck available. Trying to find a source, Mods feel free to delete this bit of the post as its one of those 'i think i heard something, but not quite sure' type of comments.
Anyway, ahh, on an awkward topic my wife and 3 kids have all jumped off the eagles ship, and hopped aboard the purple express! @freowho @The Experiment or any other dockers supporters, if you want a new missus and some kids Ill PM you my address
Also just got cold called by some bloke named 'Adam S' who asked if I was free on sat evening for a social game of footy, said he was desperate......
