Here's a tough question that i can't give an answer to.
Who has the higher opinion of themselves, Basset or Hird?

Yes, but Hird's club universally loves him, whilst at Norwood ...

Lurk much? Going by hard factual undeniable evidence provided by experts (the media) prior to going to tribunal, Hird will be banned for 12 months, in which he will miss a year, then fill the spot the year after. Potentially, being in the position to win a premiership.

Thanks to Andy Collins for the past 6 years. Taken us from an absolute basket case to finals for the past couple if years. Many people have been critical and will continue to but true West Adelaide supporters know how much you have done for the club. People wrote the team off when so many experienced players left the club at the end of last season but we still made top three.

Time for a new coach and a tweeting of the gameplan, I am still confident of finals for next year.


Thanks Andy

Think he has taken this group as far as he can.

I would take him back in a few years time but for now we need a change. People forget that this year we had recruiting bans and a CEO, who rightly it wrongly , didn't spend any money on new players. No AFL players also hurt our finals campaign.

Collins gave nothing to football in South Australia. Almost (may still) sent a club bankrupt with his pay demands. Turned supporters off watching their own club play football (attendance keeps dropping) because of the style of game played. Cheated the sanfl rules with the salary cap. Seemed hell bent on winning the Foxtel Cup instead of the SANFL premiership (further his own personal goals?). Was a one trick pony, who relied on his opponents making mistakes too win games. Andrew Jarman never had a plan B, and neither did Collins.

How do West supporters feel? You spent a bucket load of money on this guy, and you were embarrassed in a GF and a Prelim too show for it.

Please yourself, but even you say he has got it wrong.

Name one thing he has done to contribute to improving football in South Australia? Forcing players to volunteer at a church doesn't count by the way.

Absolutely spot on, and all true football supporters feel the same.

Yeah thanks Andy, achieved nothing and got less people to the game with your soccer crap that even your own supporters didn't want to watch, we'll look back on you so fondly. Don't come back, ever.
