I think the Zoltan is using the recycle rubbish which we have all been hearing for so many years now I just find it really, really boring. It smacks of justification material for an Egirl takeover of the Freo coaching field, we all know that Woosha and his co-horts should have been sacked by now. How do Muppets speak?

My initial thoughts were that Zoltan Kovaks was just Monkey Butler writing under pseudnym, but now all is revealed....he is actually a cult leader. "The Messenger", no less. It was great of him to take time out from his day job of building a space ship and mass-marrying followers to chime in on the Dockers woes.

Now Muppett (if indeed that is your real name) I think it is admirable for you to stick up for your leader, this "Messenger" fellow, and you also appear to have done a wee bit of research on the Dockers, which puts you ahead of most footy journalists, but sadly this good work is tragically undone by few fundamental flaws.

a) you have compared us in a less than favourable light with both West Coast and Port Adelaide, and claimed to be a Dockers supporter. These two facts are highly incongruous.

b)The only tradition born "out of adversity, board room struggles and years of pain" is that of finishing 9th. just ask Richmond supporters. Actually, ask any coach in the league if he wanted a stable board or a board that quits or sacks each other after a few losses and they'll laugh and make fun of Melbourne.

c)West Coast won because they had a few great players. Port won because they had a good team. For a while we won because we had lots of quite good players, but we just weren't good enough to win the whole thing. it has very little to do with culture, boards, governments, and a lot to do with football things like our midfiled being a little slow.

d) A bunch of other stuff i could write but i'm too tired of having to defend the club against Eagles fans who like to pretend they're are experts on what's wrong with the Dockers.

P.S. Kevin Sheehy used to talk about martians. Does your Messenger know anything about these?

I note that a muppet is a soul-less puppet. I also note Muppet uses "your club" not "our club".

A disguise worthy of the French POliceman from Allo Allo.

Good moaning, al. Just pissing through to soy thit I supoot Freemerntol.

So if I'm reading the Muppet from Space correctly, journalists are simply messengers and are so objective they couldn't possibility have an agenda, not even to sell a few extra papers.

Well, opinion pieces don't actually count as news, Kermit.

And to be really successful and have tradition, we have to have board room dissent, pain and struggle? Have you been watching to many re-runs of The Club? That was a satire, you do know that, don't you?

So, WCE came to be owned by the WAFC a bit differently to FFC and that makes them winners. You really are new to this idea of making any sense whatsoever, aren't you?

I've read Zoltan's opinion ...it's a classic Walls-esque piece of forming an opinion and then rearranging/forgetting/making up "facts" to support that opinion...

BTW an anchor isn't used to weigh something down ...it's a symbol of stability

I think Zoltan has got his bubble-wrap suit done up too tight...

Something that has always irked me about certain supporters of this club is their arrogant superiority about their level of "Fremantle-ness" which sets them apart from some other supporters, whether that be where they grew up, what WAFL team they supported or even the fact that they played for a Fremantle team.

Here are some facts...

- Not all Fremantle supporters live or have ever lived in the Fremantle region. In fact, not all Fremantle supporters even live in Western Australia.

- Not all Fremantle supporters grew up supporting a Fremantle WAFL team or for that matter any WAFL team at all.

- Not all Fremantle supporters have played the game, let alone, for a Fremantle based team. (Believe it or not, some of them are even women)

How can you assert that one person involved in the club is going to be better than another simply based on a degree of Fremantle-ness? It's that sort of thinking that got the Nazi's in a spot of bother in the 1930's.

I wrote a tongue-in-cheek blog some weeks back about a Citizenship Test for Fremantle supporters. It appears that there are some out there who thought I was being serious.

Tongue in cheek? I'd better remove that roadblock I set up on Stirling highway.

Anyone want to buy 3 German shepherds and a years supply of tear gas?

I've had an terrible time with the whole 'tongue in cheek' thing since that unfortunate incident at yoga.

I agree with the statement that the eagles won with a few great players. However they didn’t win with a great team. There were a few that carried the weight of the rest. Atm i think freo has the same sort of top end players, and if they can lift 10 - 15% we will up there. plus we have alot of great young guns in the wings read to hit their straps. Instead of the 5 year plan it should have been the 10 year plan. But at the end of the day our time at the top is not too far off in my opinion.

and we'll do it without the midfield chemistry, the draft concessions or the salary cap bonus

I hate to go against the party line but the Eagles premiership teams of 92 & 94 were great teams.
I don't think you can win a flag without a good team.

What's your point caller.

I forgot to drink the Kool Aid, sorry.
