First time poster here so I apologize if the format is out of whack,
BRE commented frequently in the Eagles group, often long intelligent and respectful comments (specifically compared to many other members who are disrespectful to certain players etc)
On a couple of occasions he talked about certain players and he mentioned how that particular player was a very good bloke or something along the lines.
Personally, I wouldn't read too much into the Dec 22 post, he is clearly a huge eagles fan,
These are just his comments from within the last couple months, and there are many more beforehand too;
He posted this on the 21st of Dec underneath a picture of an Eagles player who'd just had a knee-reconstruction
Bradley Edwards All the best mate. Looking forward to seeing you back out there.
This was November 24 underneath a picture of another Eagles player who many fans love to hate.
Bradley Edwards Freaking nice guy. Looking forward to a break out 2017 for him when he finds his old form and a permanent place in the team.
This was Nov 15 RE Jobe Watson being stripped of the Brownlow
Bradley Edwards I am not sure what people are on about?
"Will be forever tainted" - OMG, the medal is not tainted. The two winners, Sam Mitchel and Trent Cotchin are well deserved winners. They played the game within the rules of the game and won that medal.
Jobe was found guilty. He saw the writing on the wall and handed it back to save some face for what was an inevitable outcome. The AFL had no choice after he lost the appeal but to strip him off the medal. If he had kept it, then for sure it would have been tainted.
In my opinion it is no different to any other Brownlow rule. The same as if you are suspended during the season then you are ineligible. No one says the medal is tainted then!
Nov 13 RE Sam Mitchell being traded to West Coast
Bradley Edwards Great player and nice guy. Glad he is with the Eagles. 

And finally In direct reference to the new Stadium on Nov 11
Bradley Edwards Put simply and plainly, my memership has increased evey year for the past 20. It is now getting to breaking point where it is getting too expensive for my entire family to continue - no matter how much I want to. WCE memberships are more expensive than Hawthorns! If we move to the new stadium then I might be able to afford the first season just so we can say we were there for that first season, but not after that if it is going to be a 40% increase. That is just insane, and realistically only an estimate of the increase which could turn out to be more the following year.
As for the cost of a good venue being more, the MCG was an old run down venue yet they made it a great one with continually increased capacity over a numberof years. The AFL clubs there have much cheaper memberships. Why?
