We didn't get to see you at the game last night after all.
What happened? Too busy hiding behind your computer posting your inane comments and too gutless to face your former WWWT friends?
I have read and heard your "dribble" all year about your allegiances (or not) to the SANFL and in particular to your parting of the ways with the WWWT footy club. While you have every right to do what you think is right and you may have quite valid reasons for your decisions, it is not appropriate for you to stick the boots in to our club at every opportunity!

Our players did not vote for the AFL to join the league, but our players (and ex players) hit the field week after week and have had to play against former team mates and their former club - these are the guys I support! If I didn't support them, there is NO WAY I would jump to another club - ask any true supporter of any club - I would sooner sever a limb!!
I am not in favour of the AFL in the SANFL but I would NEVER turn my back on my club!
I remember very clearly that you told me "no matter what, I will always be an Eagles member....I may not be able to attend every game but I will be an Eagles member for life" - Hollow words my friend! Not only did you renege on this, you publically wished for South to "smash" the Eagles last night and throughout the season! Well you got your wish after all!
And before anyone gets on and gives me curry - please note, this has nothing to do with football - it is ENTIRELY personal!!
I wish South all the very best for the rest of the finals - they deserve to be there. You guys played with passion last night showing solid structure and team discipline - well done!
And LPH - I hope you do stay away from the SANFL next year as you say.......it doesn't need you.

There seemed little "team" about the way we played - both in terms of cohesive ball movement and in terms of everyone playing safe for themselves, not taking risks, everyone doing enough to protect themselves from saying they had shockers, but no one played a full, decent game. The lack of discipline at crucial stages was absolute BS. Lloyd early, Batley in the third, Borholm tried hard, Guifredda maybe, but that's about it.
As a squad, the backline is reasonably solid, probably only held back by MacKenzie maybe not coming on as a key defender as hoped. However, the rest of the side is in disarray.
Aside from recruiting, questions need to be asked about the development of the next generation of our midfield and smaller players. Goldsworthy was a State player last year, Allmond had a great first couple of years, Hall hasn't developed either. They should be nearing their prime ready to take over the mantle, but have gone backwards to the point of almost being non-entities.
Another indictment of where the club is at is who's the next captain? Cicca, McKenzie, Powell were all logical successions and fully deserving, but who is there now? Rowntree probably if he'd had a full season, Raymond sometimes takes the game by the balls and shows something, Jarrad obviously has seniority but not sure about captain.
Well done to South, they played a good, solid game and, unlike us, representing the club and their mates was important to them. For the progress they've made, it would have been disappointing for them to finish any lower, and would be great to see them go further. Hope whoever wins the first semi wins the flag.
