2nds West Coast Eagles WAFL 2019

[Jiggyman]

To be fair I don't mind using one rookie spot on an older bloke who fills a need. But with a list of 45 guys how many holes on our list should we have?
I mean we've got Smith, McInnes and Brooksby all on our rookie list this year, that's three guys who aren't really AFL quality and aren't ever likely to be. It's a lot of spots to use on guys who aren't likely to be in the top side for more than 1 or 2 games in an extreme emergency.

Again, perhaps it tells us that we lack mature depth. I doubt we were keen on throwing a bunch of undersized kids to the wolves in a new 2nds side.

I don't think playing top level footy is all there is to the equation.

Edit: should have added that I expect a few will be culled this year.

I'll be gutted if we trade Petch. He'll be better than Kelly a few years time.

He’ll never have the high production that TK has but will be a deadly weapon for sure

Williams really is gonna be a star

I saw him live early in the season against Swan Districts, he did virtually nothing all day but you could just tell he was a quality player and he was going to be good. I want him in the AFL side next year, very exciting prospect.

 

[Biggie]

And Mutimer is GOD awful

 

[Ochre]

Has it worked at all for us besides Petrie? I can't really think of any others, Bennell showed a couple of flashes but only played 20 or 30 games for us before he was gone so I wouldn't count that.

Hutch goes alright

And that's my point, we're forgoing drafting the players who are going to be that future mature depth. We're plugging holes that we've created ourselves.

Hutch went back to the WAFL though and proved himself. And we drafted him in the main draft.

 

[CoastersFlag No.5]

Midfield has been very poor.

 

[archiemoses]

Ball movement non existent

 

[barnabyjones]

Doesnt say alot that petrie is the key back

 

[ziad]

So who is Jye Bolton?
No WAFL on TV in Sydney only WA NRL on some 4th division SBS channel.

 

[Eastern Rangers]

The rookie list really does give you the shits hey

So if Duggan's playing today then I guess he isnt in the conversation for Friday.

Why? Rotham is a third tall or medium while Edwards is a first year rookie coming in off a limited preseason.

Sandover medalist.
Think he was rookie listed by someone years ago.

 

[Shuestar13]

That looked like a goal

 

[Biggie]

Beagles so so wasteful I50

[tigger_ferret]

Mutimer is a horrible footy player

He's on limited minutes as he is in contention for Friday night

 

[Godfather32]

The rookie list really does give you the s**ts hey
