Then perhaps we should start a rumour that Jackson Broadbent is tied to the Jewish community in WA and that the rabbi at his synagogue gives fiery speeches warning of the evils of cargo ships and venereal disease.
 
What would be the likely scenario if we selected Sheezel and he wanted to go home after 2 years?
PSD?

I wouldn't have thought so. Can't recall a top 3-5 talent being walked for nothing, AFL wouldn't like the optics either. Best case he's played 30-40 games, proven himself and we get something of value.

I was waiting for the Fremantle connection. ;)

Baker out of contract. Does turn 25 next year but he could add some hardness to our backline in place of Rotham or Nelson. I think a second rounder could do the trick.


Baker Barrass Witho
Duggan Gov Cole

That would be a more than handy backline.

Rather D Rioli as a RFA. Still young and playing his best footy this year in defense.
 
Mitch Barron has been playing well in the midfield at Subi Colts he tested 7.8 seconds in the agility test at the March WA draft combine . Corey Tregenza-Cashell has been going well as a power forward. Kicked 9 off 5 games which is pretty good.
 
He's a great little player and super highly rated by the Tigers - they would play hardball but probably second rounder would do it. Not sure we can afford to offload a second rounder for a 25 year old though. Would love to slide him through to the PSD but doesnt happen nowadays (plus i doubt we will have the first pick)
I would be appalled if we used a second rounder to recruit Baker. He is just a scrubber of a player and his limitations would be exposed in a poor team. Can’t fault his effort but he is not a talented player.
 
I was told it was the whole family is completely tied in with the jewish community in melbourne
A lot of kids these days are distancing themselves from ultra-religious older generations. In front of his parents and community he may very well be tied in with the community, but privately wanting a bit of room to breath.

Unless it comes out of his mouth, I'd be comfortable on us to take a punt if he's genuinely worthy of the pick.

Worst case is we trade him for a fortune after 2 years. 10 Vic clubs to trade with.
 
I haven’t read Fathead Haselby’s article but why we should be trying to recruit Paddy Dow but does it immediately reference Fremantle’s $600k gamble that they could De-Gold Coast Will Brodie?

So Deven Robertson contracted until the end of 2023.

It was more saying we should be utilising every avenue available to us to bring talent in the door to hasten the rebuild, including using the number 1 PSD pick.

He used Dow, Baker, Zurhaar and a couple others as examples as guys we could try to poach by walking to the PSD.
 
Really, I doubt anyone is going to lie about speaking to his coach.
Maybe that person did but a number of people (just like the Hurn/Glass rumour) are trying to say they've heard rumours around the traps when its bleedingly obvious they read it on here.

Credit where it's due, peeps.

Doesn’t rule out him being part of a trade to get in points to match Ashcroft (and Fletcher), but makes it a fair bit less likely IMO.

Mattaes Phillipou might be worth a look by the sounds of things if Sheezle’s too much of a flight risk and we miss out on Wardlaw.

Jhye Clark looks a safe bet if you’re looking for a Andrew Brayshaw type, consistent foot soldier.
Jhye Clark would be a good pick - nothing wrong with adding someone like Andrew Brayshaw to our midfield
 
Fair enough he has family ties and what not. But WHY get into a sport where the is a big chance you will be living interstate? Its becoming more and more prevalent with players using this card to get drafted where they want.
This kid presumably lives in a very cushy inner-south east Melbourne bubble. Making a few broad assumptions there based on him supporting Hawthorn and being Jewish, but whatever.

I just reckon that bubble, combined with the AFL’s inherent Melbourne-centricity, means that having to leave the bubble doesn’t really cross these kids’ minds.
 
Lol - all the constant speculation on here and he's not likely to go anywhere 🤣

Now to focus all our hopes on Tanner Bruhn.

Do you follow AFL and trading?

Because players with one year to go under contract never get traded? They do.

Players get traded a year out from free agency. Whilst under contract.

Players under contract but not getting consistent game time often ask to be traded.

What would you do with 1 year left on meh money and another team approached you and offered you a 4 year deal on much better money?

Is it hard to imagine seeing us aggressively pursuing a WA player with 1 year on a contract?
No it isn't.
 
On my latest weekly ladder predictor sperg out I had them finishing 12th for pick 25.


Their run home is brutal:


Sydney
GC
Freo
GWS
Melbourne
Geelong
Collingwood
Richmond
Essendon (only definite win, but they play Dons away)
Showdown (generally 50 / 50)

Apparently did a 2 year extension in 2020 not a 1 year one as previously reported. Assume it might be a trigger for an extra year situation?

Doesn’t rule out a trade this year but does rule out a PSD pick up for you.
