    Toast Jack Darling - 250 AFL Games

    A big call coming on Jack in the next 6-8 weeks when Allen returns..... he may be forced out of the 22. Flynn comes back in 4-5 and that sees BBW move to the hybrid fwd/ruck role and Jack Williams back in the 2nd's. Allen returns and the best like for like fit is Darling. The club needs to...

    List Mgmt. Brady Rawlings | Head of Football Talent (Recruitment, LM & TPP)

    Callan Ward. Hard headed, respected, gun veteran, still playing well. Make him a playing/coaching offer over 2-3 seasons. He's seen all sides, started as a young gun surrounded by talent at GWS, saw what it took to bring them through. Would be the perfect fit.

    Opinion North Melbourne Priority Picks Part 2 - 2023/2024

    As little as two weeks ago the media were saying things like... "Eagles should have taken two first rounders for Barrass last year" "The Eagles should have sent Yeo to Gold Coast" "The Eagles should have shopped Darling for a pick" The GWS model is the one North need to follow. Uber talented...

    Opinion North Melbourne Priority Picks Part 2 - 2023/2024

    LDU. Unlikely to experience 20 wins in first 100 games. What an absolute waste of talent. Surely he puts his hand up to depart at some point.

    West Coast Eagles Priority Pick (2024)

    Collins, Moore, Andrews, Ballard, Lever, Blakey, Taylor, Sicily, Buckley, Wilkie, McGovern, Pearce, Weitering, Battles. All better Key Defenders than Ben McKay. Yet McKay was worth Pick 3 under current rules..... The system is broken.

    Prediction Round 5, 2024: Changes vs Richmond

    I reckon its critical we minimise changes this week and only go with forced. If it's both of Edwards and Maric, so be it but would hate to see any omissions after last weeks game. INS: Brockman is the obvious first cab for either player. If it's both, I would be hoping we look at someone to...

    West Coast Eagles Priority Pick (2024)

    As a West Coast fan I will be happy to be denied a priority pick on one condition. NO OTHER TEAM WILL EVER RECEIVE A PRIORITY PICK AGAIN. EVER. IT IS WRITTEN IN THE AFL CONSTITUTION.

    2nds West Coast Eagles WAFL Watch 2024

    The "companion horse" Jason Gilbee has had a flat start to the season. I would have expected he'd be a bit more given he started last years VFL with a few 20+ touch games.

    News Media Thread, 2024: Insightful, Inciteful and Incomptent

    Unfortunately, too many AFL shows are a non event these days. Ill-prepared analysts who know about 25% of your average diehard fan spouting off theories they came up in 2 mins. The best shows are your in-game analysis segments and anything involving Champion Data stats. They at least talk...

    List Mgmt. Welcome Campbell Chesser (Pick 14, 2021 National Draft)

    18 games. Juries out until he at least hits 50. We have so many other worries on our list, so much pessimism around Chesser from the Karens.

    Any father-son/father-daughter picks coming up in the near future?

    He's had two respectable Colts games as a 16 year old so far. You'd love to think he's got a few more cm to grow and could continue to develop this year.

    Autopsy Round 4, 2024: Positives and Negatives vs Sydney

    Same. Don't really understand why people are so obsessed with her. By no means is she top tier but she's certainly a long way from the bottom of the list.

    List Mgmt. Contract, Trade and Draft Discussions - 2024 Edition

    On Tim English, my only concern is his concussion history. I reckon absolute top $ only goes to a player that ticks EVERY, SINGLE box. His history would warrant some discount in our offer.

    News AFL to overhaul the draft, discuss changes to Academy and FS bid matching

    I would think a simple fix could be the following: Qualifier - Any side wins less than 5 games in a season. Fix - Position of Picks is held. Example - West Coast 2023. Held picks 1, 19, 37, 55. Mackay goes to Essendon and North get Pick 3. Eagles don't go back to 20, they hold 19...

    Prediction Round 4, 2024: Changes vs Sydney

    We have a real opportunity to show some level of improvement this weekend. All your basic media analysts will be starting with the following as their benchmark: Sydney 205 - West Coast 34 A result no worse than a 50 point loss will show that the tide is turning. (And that's a really sad...

    List Mgmt. Contract, Trade and Draft Discussions - 2024 Edition

    This all depends if you want to go down the path of becoming a "feeder" club. Hypothetically trading Reid resets the hypothetical rebuild timeline.

    List Mgmt. Contract, Trade and Draft Discussions - 2024 Edition

    Any track watcher over there seeing a decent young outside mid option we could target in the Mid Season draft? Our inside players did well last weekend, it would be fantastic to find a longer term wingman type floating about in the two's. Any Swan Districts fans have an opinion on Jye Chalcraft?

    Drug policy - what are we being fed here?

    He only did it because he thought he may be caught with an illicit substance. If he had of used the system available at Melbourne (and allegedly everywhere else), he would have either not played and not been tested or known he would have a clear test.

    Drug policy - what are we being fed here?

    Did Willie get stitched? As I understand he could have had a big night on the Cheech and Chongs, contacted the club doctor, had a test, positive = doctor ticks him out with a hammy, negative = he is right to play. Doctor keeps it all confidential. Nobody at clubland knows anything the wiser...

    You have to wonder if Willie knew about the pre-game illicit drug testing service..... Or was it only available to select teams/doctors????

    News Clubs operating league-sanctioned drug testing program - Harley Balic’s Dad Speaks

    So I assume this is an equitable policy in that every player at every club has had a sanctioned ability to approach the club doctor and have pre-game illicit drug checks performed. Every player at every club..... Wonder if Willie Rioli is checking his notes to see if he was told about this...
