What’s the solution to that? We’re never going to have a situation where we’re going to have 15 AFL listed players and 7 top flight WAFL players making up the side.

The existing WAFL clubs have to regularly promote guys from their reserves or colts who might not be up to the level yet. How is that any different from us playing a handful of players who have come from ammos?

Solution is to be able to bring in more wafl quality depth.

We already have enough afl listed players, who are actually low probability development players who currently belong in ressies.

I doubt other clubs have 10 players who ability wise currently belong in reserves, let alone ammos. Ok we have gaff in flip side. Fantastic.

WAFL clubs also recruit and select players for need and balance, whilst we have who we have and fit them on ground somewhere, damn the balance. We also play players coming off injuries with managed minutes.

So let’s get off whole “afl listed players” thing, making it sound as though it means there are Dangerfields running around for beagles and we still can’t win.

Agreed. Still a fair bit of deadwood to put the broom through this year but given the performances of Snake, Petch and Jamo (when fit) it seems like next year we’ll hopefully have some tough delisting calls to make at the end of the year.

Why is that the WAFL’s problem?

Also, who are these 10 players who don’t belong in WAFL seniors?

Would love to see Archer Reid swung to CHB in games like this. Sitting in F50 with 7 entries a quarter is going to do three fifths of f**k all for his development. Let him get a feel for the game at senior level put him where the ball is going, not where it isn’t going.
