I don't think too many people would be surprised as to how West can go on such a downward spiral from putting together a premiership side to where they are now. It's a shame, lot of passionate Bloods fans out there who I have a lot of time for.

I'm more surprised how they managed to put together a premiership!

Good on them though, lots of long suffering Westies fans and many of them mates of mine deserved a break from the same old same old they suffered for many years.

Wonder whether it's time for some new blood, not sure where they're coming from or how they'll attract them though.

Firstly, letting your personal feelings about individuals cloud your judgement is poor form or has the latest banning from another site caused you rage bundy ---

Whilst you have been made aware of the acurate facts in reference to salary cap shortfall before try and read the following carefully as it will answer your question

1. Profit or not has absolutely nothing to do with salary cap! --- two totally separate matters that do not relate to each other ---- salary cap is set by sanfl which all the money in the bank does not change

2. Amount is set by salary cap which in westies case has been reduced below that available to most other teams with (as you have been previously advised) most was used in getting recruiting former players coming back from afl

Facts are facts --- emotional outbursts are not facts

Booney, i think if you speak to most honest westies supporter the 2015 squad had a fair bit of experienced quality talent that is now gone (just some that come to mind scmidt, tuck, hartlet, caire, willetts and several others all quality players at sanfl level) also eagles were desperately unluck in that they had 3 key injuries replaced with about 20 gqmes experience whist westies also had 3 injuries hut were replaced by over 300 games experience --- clearly we were the second team that year but lucky with players avaliable on the big day.

Your comment reference new blood is spot on given the retirement of the above listed quality experienced players a look at our present league and reserves squads will show a very young and inexperienced squad such that westies are presently rebuilding and working towards ateam with league experience a cause not helped by the long term injury to porplicia not the suspension of 3 key players.

The rebuild is also not helped by the sanfl short sighted policy of a lower salary cap so we supporters now must go through the pain of rebuild for future gains and performance improvement

Frankly imo if you look at norths and glenelg sqad in last three years both have had many player changes and they have tried many young players with quick judgement on thier actual potential to move them on if deemed not up to it.

Coupled with some good long term recruitingI feel both teams are in a good position with many quality young players shch that if i supported either i would be looking forward to the next couple of years.

While on same rebuilding track i feel westies and for that matter south are both 2 years behind the bays and north.

No mate take a deep breath lol --- more likely a noticeable progress improvement

Firstly will make final 5 several years in a row starting in next couple years hopefully for long suffering loyal supporters
Secondly, after gaining further experience make the grand final
Thirdly, as i posted above reference 2015 luck on the day is critical

Sorry no guarentees of a premieship win from me lol
