Considering, it's amazing there weren't more dramatic scenes from players/supporters following that clash.

Weak.

I was there standing right behind Brads mum and partner, I believe. His mum didnt move just put her head in her hands and cried.
Maybe that sort of vision should be shown at the tribunal. I did react and stormed onto the oval at quarter time and gave the entire Eagles club a verbal lashing. Then the yellow tops moved in and threatened to remove me from the ground. There was also a couple of other supporters doing the same. i could go on and mention the threats that I received from a large Eagles official who questioned my upbringing and parenthood, who seemed to be enjoying the whole situation along with a few other officials, I must say not all though.
I have not bought a season ticket this year, first time for a long time because I doubted my enthusiasm and commitment due to the AFL intrusion into our great comp. Who was I kidding after witnessing one of the most ugly incidents I have seen on any football oval anywhere I believe my allegiance is stronger. you can take the boy out of Lizbeth but YOU WILL NEVER take Lizbeth out of the boy. DOGS FOR LIFE.

It's a pity a report highlighted your passion though. They are an interesting supporter base that lot.

Okay, fair enough. I seem to remember you mentioning it once or twice in the past...

Play on, then...

Dont you know ? lol... According to you I am a Double Blues supporter.

Oh by the way ,I got a message from you but you deleted it.

Move on boy.

The Dogs were one key defender down, with new full back recruit Murray Stephenson currently out with a shoulder complaint...

James Boyd would have been apprehensive playing his old club and while he didn't play his best game, still had plenty of the ball, finishing with 21 disposals and 7 clearances. Was troubled in the second half with what looked to be a jarred knee. Would have been happy to get that game out of the way.

Michael Wundke kicked the 3 goals and on most occasions, showed too much upper boday strength for his direct opponent in second gamer Matt White. The former Rooster and Panther finished with just the 5 touches and 2 marks, to go with the 3 majors while White had 7 touches and a couple of impressive one on one wins against him.

With the goals kicked, you'd say the points go to Wundke, but White was named by Warren Partland amongst the Dogs best players in the Advertiser.

For a second gamer thats a good effort. Wundke is a very good player.

Yes, absolutely, agreed...

It might be a big call, but White shows similar traits to a young Dustin Fletcher. More so physically, with the tall, gangly frame but like Fletcher, he is a very disciplined defender. He held Matthew Duldig to just 1 goal in the trial against Sturt and certainly had a better second half on Wundke...

Central have had some pretty good defenders in recent seasons and although he still has plenty to work on, as all young players do, Matt White has the potential to be a 10 year player for the Dogs on that last line of defence. Is a local Eastern Park lad as well and comes from a good family...

His dad is one of the best blokes you will ever meet!!

Why is it a pity?

kickinit, please stop embarrassing yourself. Have a week off.

Would be interested in Doggies supporters' thoughts of how Tim McIntyre went in his first game, I noted he had 14 disposals and kicked 0.2. Did he play mainly as a midfielder as suggested when he was drafted?

Tim has had an injury interrupted pre-season and had only played a half of one trial, against his former club, in the lead up...

He looks very fit and has bulked up considerably but clearly lacked match fitness on Saturday...

He seems to have increased his agression levels as well and laid some very physically strong takles, one in particular on James Boyd...

I think he will take a few weeks to not only regain his match fitness but settle into the Dogs midfileld line up. I still think he'll be a good pick up...
