The point of that quote was to show that Fyfe sees himself as a midfielder, even if he knows that it may not be best fit for the team
Up to the coaching staff after all
How does Nat Fyfe fit back into the Fremantle line-up?
“But until then the Dockers remain a team that inspires very little emotion in supporters of other teams”
Seeing as i get told literally everyday that “Fremantle have no premierships” by fans of many different teams, i’d like to think that we live rent-free in a lot of people’s heads 😉
The Fremantle bubble has burst, and they could be in freefall
I’d say minimum 12 wins for the season, 9-7 seems reasonable for 7 weeks time
Brisbane at home isn’t as much of a guaranteed win for the Lions as people think it is, they might be dropping off form a bit as well
The Fremantle bubble has burst, and they could be in freefall
Only Fremantle could be written off at 7-3
The Fremantle bubble has burst, and they could be in freefall
Pretty sure he went to the UAE as well
Not ideal
Perth Glory should give Daniel Sturridge another season
Manly were giving him way too much space to run on Thursday Night
Big formational problem if you ask me (And also Harper is not the best player to put on him)
Siosifa Talakai is a weapon, but how on earth do you stop him?
Shopping centres are just as busy as normal if you ask me
Perth Glory's return home makes it a national league once again

For rent: The east-coast clubs that should host Perth Glory
There was a Perth club in the Singapore Premier League for one season
Where should the A-Leagues expand to next?
Canberra, Wollongong and Tasmania are no brainers
I’d give the 16th club to a 2nd team in Brisbane, Perth or Adelaide, and base the criteria simply off who can build a stadium and seperate identity to the existing club in their city. If they can’t do that then don’t bother looking at the bid
Where should the A-Leagues expand to next?
Wollongong vs Perth
Wollongong vs Newcastle
Wollongong vs Sydney
Rivalries here, not just derbies
'Little interest in the club's existence': Bulls need to act quickly to survive
Optus probably
Same with Port Adelaide in the city, Fremantle playing near East Perth, St Kilda in the Docklands, Collingwood at the MCG
Really no different
What if East Perth joined the VFL?
Joondalup Cardinals is the best bet, really the only candidate that would actually expand the game and not just split the existing pie 3 ways instead of 2
Also there’s already a Perth Football Club so i doubt they would’ve changed to that
What if East Perth joined the VFL?
It’s not about people jumping ship though
It’s about finding new fans, a Joondalup/West Perth team is probably the best bet but not for a while
What if East Perth joined the VFL?
Would say Fremantle is a manufactured club?
They are officially a manufactured club but at least they were built off something
What if East Perth joined the VFL?
Southport had only been in the QAFL for 5 years in 87
They were established by 2011
What if East Perth joined the VFL?
But i thought you said Campbelltown was part of Western Sydney?
Wanderers booed off after 2-0 loss to Macarthur
I’m 16, fully vaxxed with no side effects for either jab 😊
Why aren’t people turning up to the A-League Men?
I saw about 5 Liverpool shirts at the match
And the atmosphere was the best I’ve seen at HBF Park (Apart from the semi in 18-19). The casual fans were outnumbered
Either way, everytime I wore my Sturridge Glory shirt in public a week after, someone asked me about the match, this is only a good thing
Why aren’t people turning up to the A-League Men?
A boot to the head is a red
But the inconsistency does my head in
Either way, great win for PGFC last night, with an out of form City and a below class Brisbane coming up, we’ve got a real chance to pick up 3 or 4 points
If we’re Top 6 by the time we play Wellington at home then finals are almost certain
It's hard to enjoy the football when all anyone can talk about is VAR
Perth Glory have given a free 3 game membership to any junior football player in WA
And look at that first home game
The AFL and NRL have nothing to fear from the A-League
Melbourne City don’t have casual fans to draw from
If people in Melbourne want to watch the A-League they go see Victory
Football has lost its soul in Australia and only the fans can save it now
10 years
An A-League premiership and an ACL win, sure the treatment of the RBB hasn’t been great but i think there’s worse things that could happen
Football has lost its soul in Australia and only the fans can save it now
The thing that separates the A-League from the NRL and the AFL is that not as many people watch neutral matches
I’ve watched every Perth Glory match this season but can count on one hand the amount of other AL games I’ve watched
The focus needs to be on the gameday experience. If I’m being honest I can’t see Unite Round going beyond next season.
Does the A-League have the clout to make a UK-bound event round work in season 2024/25?
