Incredible how listless United has been in this game, bugger all effort.

United are so pathetic

United were better last season

Didn't watch this one

Looks like Wesley carried thru his brilliant form from Monday

But otherwise a typical game from United- Goulding failing to fire, nothing from the bench.

Melbourne's locals have been atrocious. Wesley is the only one who can actually hold his head high and say he's having a decent season so far.

Tokoto was great last couple of games but season to date it's fairly even between him and Prather.

Thanks Cairns

Our pleasure, Jack...

Fearne said some pretty good stuff in the press conference.

Podge, where you at? I like Fearney. I like him. He's great. He's improving. Happy to have him as my team's coach. Shut up tho, don't want to hear you rabbit on!

Does anyone have a link to Fearne's presser? I love hearing him talk.

I felt a disturbance in the force, then i log on here and Manu is saying positive things about Fearney! hahaha

Love it.

Fearne has never had a talented roster to work with over the years and if he had you can bet he would have won a few titles. Give him perth and he certianly would have had 1 or two rings. Hell he would make Sydney or United much better then what they are.

The Prather V JPTargument is getting pointless at this point because JPT pretty much passed Prather and is getting better and better by each game. That is a credit to the Perth Development system. Lucas Walker now looks like a all star thanks to the same system.

Perth and Prather were playing terrible last season until cotton came in and turned it around

"Perth and Prather were playing terrible last season until cotton came in and turned it around."

Actually, while Cotton definitely helped, Perth really clicked at the end of the year once Prather got back to health after some injury issues.

In their seven-game win streak to end the season Prather averaged 23p, 5r and 5a. Yes, Cotton's 45-point GF game was huge, but overall Prather was Perth's most important player last year.

Do you think Prather got those numbers without the assistance of cotton?

Perth barely lost a game when cotton signed

"Perth barely lost a game when cotton signed."

They were 5-4 in his first nine games.

"Do you think Prather got those numbers without the assistance of cotton?"

They both helped each other. But at the start of last season Prather had an eight-game stretch where he averaged 24p, 5r and 5a so he was certainly capable of getting those numbers without Cotton.

But it's not about Prather.

What was Perth's record before cotton signed?

5-4 plus killing it in finals seems pretty good. Perth were bottom when cotton signed weren’t they?

Well they were last for a round and were 2nd the next round. Can't really say cotton was the cause, just that the season was super tight. But cotton is definitely the reason they won the championship.

Cotton was the reason they even made the playoffs.
