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

    In fairness to Chesser, he had no contract extension up until a few weeks ago and had probably made peace with leaving the Eagles and exploring options in Victoria (assuming there was at least some interest from other clubs previously). Some making out he is doing the dirty on us if he leaves is...

    No one wants to know. It’s simply completely irrelevant to the act in the circumstances or the penalty that should be applied based on past occurrences and statements.

    News Don Pyke appointed CEO

    The problem is that several assistants were contracted. We could have paid them out, sure, with a hit to the soft cap. But who were we going to replace them with? Most assistants had already been tied up by other clubs at that time. Mini also needed to assess what we had. Again, yes we...

    News Don Pyke appointed CEO

    This isn't what happened. But many businesses invest in the future, which costs in the present, meaning lower immediate returns for longer term gain. That is pretty much any form of investment in any business or other forms of investment (infrastructure, real estate, shares etc).

    List Mgmt. Welcome Harley Reid (Pick 1, 2023 National Draft)

    There is still over a year to run on his contract. Negotiating and documenting contracts of that value takes time and there is no real urgency. They are not timing these things to make supporters happy.

    Except we didn't have a skeleton crew of older players across all lines or competent midfield that we could build around. Most of our senior players that were any good have fallen off a cliff or are injured. We had very little of value that we could have unloaded but did with Barrass and look...

    Autopsy Round 22, 2025: Positives and Negatives vs Adelaide

    I don’t disagree but think he needs a bit more strength through the core, which will come with age. I have been a fan from day 1 and not really sure why he gets dropped. We should be getting as many games into him as possible. His speed, acceleration and kick are a weapon. Was a great game...

    Banter The No Dazzlering Big Cricket Thread

    Maybe. But calling the game early is a decision by both captains. Not just what the Pom's want because they think they get to define the spirit of the game. One very good reason for pressing on is to try to take confidence into the next game and lower the confidence of the opposition.

    We may also be looking for longer term fixes for the WA teams, rather than a short term priority pick fix. If we can get permanent extra rookie picks/ NGA picks for the travel burden issues, that’s a bigger win maybe than a priority pick. But pride sure as shit shouldn’t get in the way of...

    Why don't West Coast just use all of "their" money to buy Indian Pacific and then they will wholly own Indian Pacific, and then they can set up a breakaway from the WAFL and, if things don't improve, a breakaway from the AFL. Bloody Don Pyke been sitting on his hands since he got here...

    Particularly when most have never seen the player live and have based their opinion on 30 seconds of highlights, which they have used to make a comparison against some player on our list they deem a spud.

    Sure, but you also have to acknowledge all the ones you get wrong (not just you, but any of us - the Nakia Cokatoo's so many of us were screaming about). It's easy to throw out loads of names, some will be hits but many misses. Recruiters don't have that luxury. They have limited picks. Not...

    Yet we also have the examples of Redden and Jetta who looked decidedly ordinary in their first years. Regardless, we won’t be delisting Owies after one year.

    I would think list management is a long term strategy and whilst they may not specifically tag a player 18 months out to delist, they need flexibility and creating unnecessary long (longer) term contracts is not conducive to flexibility, particularly for a player whose form has been poor this...

    That may be so but our players tend to fall off a cliff in their 30's and we are getting a younger team, which means next year we will need players to de-list and it may be tight. I don't see the benefits outweighing the downside given our salary cap space and his form this year. I could...

    And it isn't like there will be many other suitors at his age and the fact he is unlikely to want to leave the State. I am not really sure why we keep doing this with players when it seems unnecessary. 1 year would suffice and if he plays well, he gets another (even if the first has triggers)...

    I didn't watch the game live (at airport and on a plane), so got to watch it dispassionately after reading all the frothing and ranting about how bad it was. I actually thought we were pretty good, but let down by several blunders and players missing easy-ish goals. That happens. I rarely...
