    Eade Says Stop Taking Home Games to Sydney



    Basically Eade states he would like to see the Bulldogs stop playing home games against us in Sydney.

    Interesting also to read that Eade was offered a job with the Australian Rugby Union.

    It is obviously a non-brainer to know that playing at home is easier than playing away on a strangely-shaped oval. He is just looking at things from a coach's subjective perspective rather than of a clubman intent on bringing income to his under-the-weather.

    From their perspective, if they can afford to play the game in Melbourne, it would be better for them. But it they want to play up here, then all and good for us. Who is going to knock having another game played on their home ground?

      Well if the Bulldogs are in a better financial position this season then perhaps they dont have to move home games up here and i feel Rodney Eade wants to put them in a better position financially.He can start that by making them more competitive on the ground.

      However,if they want to bring a home game up here anytime,any season,then i am not complaining.
      Well done Craig Bolton for getting the co- captaincy in 2008.

      Your determination,your tenacity and your under-rated skill is why you have become my favourite player!

        But the pizza tastes better in Lygon St that anywhere I've found in Sydney.

        The place our resident porker Silent Lurker recommended on Crown St is Ok, but the cheese is all weird and stringy.

        Still, I ain't found a $5 after-match steak in Melbourne like you can at the Forresters!

        PS:- Should I keep the $5 Forresters sticky date pudding Old Royboy?

          One more game for the Melbournians to enjoy, so I'd be OK with that option.

          Is anyone suggesting that we need that home ground advantage anymore?

            have you tried napoli in bocca in haberfield? i can't compare it to lygon st as i've not eaten pizza there, but this stuff is fantastic.
            then again, i think it would be worth trying 15-16 players on field so what would i know

                  personally speaking, lygon st pizzas are overated. the pizza place in seaford on the nepean hwy is better.

                    Alrighty then.....

                    Hows this for a deal?

                    The Western Bulldogs can use the SCG for their home games provided they provide us,the Sydney public,with nice pizzas!

                    BTW,on the subject of food-Go the $5 steaks at Forresters in Surry Hills and go the pizzas at Rockys,Bondi Junction!Yummy.

                    The big question remains....

                    Whats Rocket's favourite topping??
