And prepared to quote yourself to prove it?

Listing the Grand Finalists year by year would show the true picture.

Not so much "quoting myself" as saving re-writing the listing of historic facts.

If they don't win the grand final who gives a flying fuck, they aren't the best team!!!

Ohhhhhhh so that's how you work it out.........and here was me thinking the ABs have been the benchmark for about as long as I can remember.

As you were!

And the latest from the rumour mill is that Hansie's beloved Nedlands, the club that never (or at least supposedly over Hansie's dead body) pays for players or poaches them has bought an Under 20 player from NZ and paid his air fares from NZ, gave him a car, got him a job, promised him an apprenticeship, paid him $2,000 cash, will be excluded from fees and Nedlands will pay him a "weekly allowance" (presumably thats a match fee).

Unbelievable hypocrisy Hansie! And also a bloody disgrace.

So much for "we grow our own", "we never poach or buy players", "don't pay match fees", "everyone pays their fees", ya di yada ......

For just a moment I thought you had regained some credibility but that's just gone out the window.

Clearly Nedlands has the money to throw around and it just supports previous posts about Neddies buying premierships.

What do you pay your first grade players if a young guy gets this amount? Don't deny it Hansie, because I have it from the horse's mouth, so to speak.

Look at yourself in the mirror and tell us what you see!!!

Get over it you belter

It's a professional sport

Say hello to progression of the local comp

Travis still got his "for sale" sign out?

[RumourMonger]

You're missing the point Rex - again! Lay off the scotch and you may think a bit clearer.

I have no issue with clubs transitioning to a semi-professional era.

I do however have an issue with club officials falsely claiming that they don't pay players or don't induce them to play for them with various material rewards.

Clearly Nedlands are in it up to the eye balls but Hansie remains in denial. His mates BDG and Darkness aren't exactly denying the truth either.

Who gives a sh1t princess?

Welcome to the professional age.

So they buy a few players?

Get over it

[RumourMonger]

You're slurring your words Rex like the old boozer you are.

I accept your confession that Nedlands rely on cheque book recruiting.

Pity Hansie couldn't bring himself to do it.

[Rex Messup]

I don't even know where Nedlands is you dinger

Stop whining

If nobody wants to play for your club, fix it up

Nobody wants to play for a whiner. Grow some bollocks

Rumours, the more money Neddies spend on unproven players and speculative recruits the less they have available to pay to keep the players they've got, like the bunch that transferred to Kala, according to thatguy. (He's got every indication of becoming a real source of information, has thatguy.)

It's all good, comrade, chill. Never interrupt your enemy when he's making a mistake, as a wise man once said. (I think it was me, but it may have been Napoleon.)

The island lock has a cousin at kala and the kiwi lock hasn't played since winning the gf in 2010 at nedlands he's gone for the love to play with a mate . So there was no money exchanged for those two
