Sorry OP, I tried to reply using my burner account but the post was deleted straight away :(

... though I will say that I think we should sack Marty Clarke now

Thanks for considering us OP.

When I'm feeling sad after a loss like tonight I think of the 8 championships that our club has won.

#109 yes questions about the club's front office and ambitions will be revealed shortly you would think. Nice to see someone else who gets it.

I posted this in the game thread but it is more suitable in here:

Troy did nothing last season when we were cooked during mid-Dec to mid-Jan. A massive fade is happening again so it will be interesting to see how invested the club really are or will they merely continue off of the fumes of recent titles. Does the CEO even have authority to spend? We'll see.

Piss taking panic thread accepted by the look of things.

According to the ladder on the NBL app:

Perth are only 1 win ahead of 3rd (Melbourne);
Perth are only 2 wins ahead of 2nd (Sydney).

Very confusing way of presenting the ladder. Maybe it's the NBL’s way of lulling Perth into a false sense of security, making them think they’re 2 games clear when they’re not really.

Must be Kestleman’s evil plan to hobble a team he doesn’t own.

See Cats fans. The league is against you.

Oh dear one of many nameless claims the bottom 4 are atrocious. On the other hand Perth should grab the cheque book again and find someone to buy another ring. Fact is the teams spending mega bucks will almost always beat their poorer cousins as they do. I'm guessing the Hawks player budget is about 40% of the top 4s. Sour grapes no way.
Big dollars can protect an average coach who fails under pressure as he does

A few posts ago, I suggested that Bris needed a 5 as support for hodgson. I said then, and I repeat, IMO, Hodgson is great. But as my first and only choice as a Centre, I worry that he is the only C.

re the above post:
"Brought back Jervis?
The guy is trash and seems to be out of favour with Gleeson, because he hasn't been getting much court time.
I am glad he didn't re-sign with Brisbane."

Imagine Jervis with a back-up role for on-court purposes and a mentor role off-court for the emerging Magnay and Harrison and for some tough poractice meat for Hodgson. Not relying on Jervis to be a game winner and not even a certainty to play. But if for any reason Hodgson is not available, then Bris are forced to play small ball. They do have a great roster for that style with a trio of outstanding 4's in Bairstow, Vukona and TeRangi but I want that as a coach's choice rather than a got-no-other choice.

I'd have Jervis back at the Bullets!

One fan does not make an army.

I hear that Perth might re-name themselves the Llamas.

Just to match the two L's in a row L L ama.....

You missed the full details, Jack. It's actually the Excellency Honourable Master Sir Gentlemen Mr Lord Llamas Esq.
To match the two Ls and the 8 titles.

Brisbane doesn't have an army of supporters.

They have tetsu, of varying kinds.

From the Washington Post:

"Sure, there are the vanilla trainspotters who take photos of various trains around the country. They’re called tori-tetsu. (Tori means to take, and tetsu means train.)

But there are also nori-tetsu, people who enjoy traveling on trains; yomi-tetsu, those who love to read about trains, especially train schedules; oto-tetsu, the people who record the sound of trains; sharyo-tetsu, fans of train design; eki-tetsu, people who study stations; and even ekiben-tetsu, aficionados of the exquisite bento lunchboxes sold at stations."

All aboard the bullet train. Choo Choo. Next station Red Army devastation.

......yes , and hodgson aint got brakes...

Jack is good for the forum provides good banter.
8 is a special number
8 for titles Perth have
8 for losses Adelaide have this season

8 for the grade Jack will be in next year

8 the number of Goulding flops per game.

3rd import announced tomorrow. You heard it here first. His name is Corey and he's had a brief but painful media stint but has been convinced to come out of retirement and suit up again.

After that horrendous 3rd quarter the other night and the 65 point final total, Whoever it is had better be bringing some numbers with them. This ain't no cupcake league.

#723856 Going off of last season where they did nothing it will probably happen again. Funnily enough the rut last season started in mid December as well. #back2back

#cooked

Derek Cooke Jr confirmed this evening as third import signing

Wildcats should be out of the top 4 half way through January at this rate. Good job they have Brice Cotton or the first half of the season would have looked like Cairns does right now.

The Perth-mobile has four flat tyres and is on blocks

I love the salt, anon.

Perth salt is somehow sweet, it's one hell of a phenomenon

We're slummin' it and everyone's lovin' it.

I concur. Where is the uproar? Red Army has lost its passion to be the best. 0-4 but it's all good?

+1 Fieldel being a wanker

Can't afford or won't spend? Crowds and membership continue to be healthy. Plus the GM would come cheap compared to Marvin.

Guys, it's Christmas time and I'm already full from all the sweets. Any more abuse from Perth fans and I'll burst!

Oh now the Perth Pussy Cats can't afford a third import when there is no salary cap. Boo Fucking Hooo. What about all the money stashed away from ripping off the fans who pay the highest price to be a membership?
Oh that's right it goes to their 15 Asst Coaches and 83 office staff. Booo Hoo. Cry me a River.

Yeah. That makes a lot of sense. So every other sport is more of a ripoff.

"Oh that's right it goes to their 15 Asst Coaches and 83 office staff."

Pretty sure we have more than that.

Just a reminder 19/20 thread now.

A title such as "Red army lack of panic thread" would be more appropriate given the current climate.

I bumped the thread because the panickers are now worried about 19/20 already idiot.

Damian Martin posted on IG that he's started part time work as a real estate agent.

Cat Chat has already started playing what-if's and panicking about it!

"Damian Martin posted on IG that he's started part time work as a real estate agent."

Oh noes. Saturday morning games are bad for home openings for fans. Maybe Martin will decide it's too inconvenient to go to games as well.

Damian Martin can be the personal buyer's agent for Dazz.

Some more reminders:

Last 5 games form:

#8 Perth 1-4

Last 10 games form:

#7 Perth 4-6 (only Cairns are worse)

We are third.

Check the timestamp. After our game we were 3rd which is when I posted, however later on with Utd losing went back to 2nd. Geez, these anons.

Instead of using this site to criticise teams like Perth. Try and be constructive and act like adults in discussing issues.
If a new import is needed well give valid reason and suggest players who could possibly be recruited

Annonymous
True. This site is becoming so childish

Eric Moreland free agent. ? Possible import

"The forum has been dragged down by trolling from Fieldel and or Perthworld."

More like anons trolling certain people by calling them trolls. I wouldn't be surprised if most of the anon activity against me is the same person.

WTF am I doing on that list?

The forum has been dragged down by trolling from Fieldel and or Perthworld.

Anon #726794 I've never said or thought of myself being in that group...

@Isaac can't disagree with you but many anons aren't exactly innocent either.

Why can't we just accept that some people like stirring the pot, some people like posting serious discussion and debate, and still others like to do a bit of both.

As long as we don’t get personally abusive towards each other, or NBL players, coaches and officials, we are left with only one question:

Does it really matter?

We can all agree to disagree.

I’ve only ever posted a couple of times as anon. About mental health stuff concerning players and ex-players. One of the problems with anon posting is that it can look like there’s more support for an opinion than there really is. Another problem with anons is that they tend to be more personally insulting.

Anons and Non anons are as bad as each other sometimes.
A bit of banter is OK eg Jack Toft stirring up us West Aussies but it is annoying when some go out of their way to troll.
Ignore trolls and hope they disappear.
