    Prediction Whose top 5 in your Best and Fairest to date ?

    So we are 6 rounds in and it’s very early days but think it’s an interesting conversation to have as players can hit a period of form then drop off as the year goes on. Anyway for Eagles I’d have our top 5 as 1. Reuben Ginbey - by an enormous amount . Will win the award in a canter I’d think...

    Review Strategy changes to turn this thing around

    I tend to find these discussions bounced around many many different threads so its probably worth localising it to one. If their is one thing to understand or look at over these last 5 years is not much has changed in the last 5 years... Sure we moved Kelly to the WAFL for a few weeks and Mini...

    Prediction Round 4, 2026: Changes vs Sydney

    Im a bit wary that off the 6 day break we may need some more midfield run IN: Hewett, Brock OUT: Yeo, Lindsay Brock in to make the defense taller plus find some midfield time for Baker Hewett in as Yeos natural replacement. If Hewett deemed not fit enough I think Lindsay stays in and Allan...

    The Official Bigfooty NBA Week 11-16 (including the trade deadline) Thread

    Atlanta have this awkwardness in that Trae Young is now a bench piece but then dont have the courage to pull the trigger. With how Jalen Johnson plays he kind of needs a catch and shoot 3 point shooter somewhere which is Alexander-Walker. Without one the offense just stagnates and when they miss...

    Best kids shows of all time

    It’s an interesting question this given just how toxic the Nickelodeon and Disney machines are and it kind of makes you think about the best and worst shows . For me the best kids show of all time was Hey Arnold as far as cartoons goes As far as non cartoons go I think Big Time Rush is the...

    Traded Mason Cox - Joins Fremantle as an SSP signing

    Probably deserves a thread Rumours are Fremantle have approached with interest in signing him on the rookie list. Cox wants a 2 year deal to make the move after Dockers offered 1. Expectation is Dockers agree and give him the 2 year deal. He will just play WAFL as backup to Jackson/Darcy...

    "We are committed to taking XXX in the rookie draft"

    At what point does this deliberate draft manipulation simply end? Its becoming a joke. Something needs to budge here... maybe more then one thing In the scenario here id almost like to see GWS take Jake Lloyd and tell him to either retire or move down the road. Somethings gotta give

    Traded Liam Ryan [Traded with 2027 R3 to St Kilda for 2026 R2 (Stk)]

    Tons of murmurs over in W.A that this week will be his last game at Eagles and he is off to St Kilda on a 4 year 2.8 mill deal. Question is what is his worth? St Kilda dont have too much to give us in that they only have pick 8 and 44 for now and suspect Eagles will need currency to get other...

    Traded Brody Mihochek [Traded with #71 to Melbourne for #61 and 2026 R3 (Melb)]

    Deserves a thread. Collingwood offered him a 1 year deal on fairly mediocre money which has peaked the interest of Demons and Sydney who are both offering 2. If he does leave Collingwood get nothing back most likely as far as compensation goes so its a case of would Collingwood match a 2 year...

    Recommitted Jedd Busslinger [OOC 2026] - name was floated for a move in 2025, stayed

    I think he probably deserves a thread of his own even after committing last year. He has clearly shown himself too good for the VFL while at the same time not being selected. He played 1 game, played well and got dropped. He cant be happy playing VFL when he has options elsewhere I think his...

    Jake Lever [OOC 2028]

    Apparently chucked a wobbly when he was dropped and will listen to other clubs interest I cant honestly say I see alot of suitors for the guy. Maybe last year Carlton would have had a go but not after the season they had. I could see North taking him on for nothing or St Kilda in the same way...

    Recommitted Max Gruzewski [OOC 2026] - name was floated for a move in 2025, stayed

    According to his manager he has told GWS he is unhappy with not being in the AFL side and wants to explore his options in the off season with a few Victorian clubs showing interest. He has been very good in the VFL all year. Kicke$ 10 goals in last 3 weeks and averaging 9 marks a game...

    Recommitted Neil Erasmus

    Reported by Ryan Daniels that Erasmus has 4 clubs interested in him at present. The West Coast Eagles and 3 other Victorian teams. He has broken into the Fremantle midfield and shown some good signs in the past 4 weeks however. He stayed with Fremantle on a short term deal and has taken the spot...

    Managing players in todays era and betting odds

    Over the past two weeks we have seen players so called managed in the lead up to a game. I think we got 2 current examples of how its done between Collingwood and Hawthorn Collingwood - They announced it right after the game. Mentioned who/when/why . The betting markets opened right after and...

    The "its not the coaches fault" thread

    In 2025, we have never been more entrenched in the "sack the coach its all his fault mindset". By my count we have the below as being called to be sacked basically every week Matthew Nicks Michael Voss Justin Longmuir Simon Goodwin Alastair Clarkson Ken Hinkley Honorable Mentions : Luke...

    Recommitted Tim Kelly [re-signed for 2 years]

    Im surprised no one is talking about this. In my eyes he is arguably one of the most likely players in the league to leave his club to chase success, particularly to a side like Fremantle He has openly said he isnt happy at Eagles. He is a guy whose made a insane amount of cash so far in his...

    Enough is enough

    Im sorry but this needs its own thread and needs one ASAP Enough is enough If AFL can find 600 million for ****ing Gold Coast they can find some for well the actual players We as fans need to demand better. This is just not on. Its a black stain on the game right now. It cannot contimue for...

    Why isnt this a scandal ?

    This is crass and probably worse then what the GWS players were told off for but apparently this is funny and not worth worrying about? Seems a odd double standard to me. I guess one is well liked by the media and the others are not. That simple

    The Official 2024/5 NBA Week 13 Thread (Lakers make their move)

    WTF are Lakers doing? You are struggling for offense in general and off the bench so you bring in a defensive wing? I can only assume they want to move Rui to the bench to get more shots up from there or something. Even then I dont know what that means for Vanderbilt when he is back. Do they...

    Club protest at training

    This is legit. You can either come or not. Im going to put a date on this first post when a clear date can be decided but quite simply, at one of our first training sessions im literally going to the training session to protest. Whether I am there by myself so be it but enough is enough quite...

    Delisted Nathan Kreuger

    Im surprised no thread exists yet. He had a good end to the season and with Collingwood not in a rush to sign him on I can 100% see him elsewhere. A fair few teams make sense to me here Krueger to Port Adelaide to replace Charlie Dixon Kreuger to Brisbane on the IF Joe Daniher retires Krueger...

    Traded Matthew Kennedy: To Dogs p/of 4-way trade: B. Smith (WB) & pick 45 to Geel / pick 38 to Carl / Macrae (WB) to StK / pick 17 & Kennedy (Carl) to

    Been told to look elsewhere. He is looking for more midfield time than Carlton willing to offer . Seems a falling out with the coach. I think Richmond would have interest as a replacement for Liam Baker. I could see Demons having some interest too. Can’t see many other options I’d be shocked...

    Delisted Matt Taberner

    As bizarre as this is, apparently, he has a few AFL clubs interested in him. His WAFL form has been pretty decent this year but his back is absolutely cooked so its just a bit odd why anyone would be interested Demons would be a option as I think would Port. Maybe someone wants him as a ready...

    Recommitted Mac Andrew [Signs until at least 2030]

    Rumors today that a Victorian club will offer 8 years 12 mill for him. Not really sure he is worth that much but I do get it. His versatility is amazing as is his ceiling. I cant see Gold Coast matching such a contract offer since they just cant afford it Id be shocked if this unnamed club...

    Recommitted Jayden Laverde [re-signed for 2025]

    Sought a contract extension from Essendon and got told No and to look elsewhere. Think he might have a few suitors and suspect he will be given away for free. I could see St Kilda wanting him to replace Battle, Collingwood wanting him instead of Keane, Sydney wanting him as a ready made player...

    Gold Coast Suns AFL Funding - Return on value

    Ive gone down a rabbit hole I gotta admit here. Being self-employed and very easily distracted leads me to research stupid things. Yesterday I got sidetracked by Gold Coast and the funding the AFL gives them via distribution of income. In particular I was comparing 5 clubs. Gold Coast, Brisbane...

    Recommitted Josh Rachele [RFA 2029]

    Surely he is off after he got thrown under the bus by Adelaide? Id expect a fair few clubs would have interest. First thought was Carlton. Chased Hayward and didnt get anywhere and feel like Rachele kind of would play a similar role. North Melbourne would also have interest Think his worth is...

    Opinion Vent - Players you wanted your club to draft but they didnt

    In a thread on the Eagles board, someone wrote up a list of rookie listed players we had and taken back to 2016 when Liam Ryan was coming off a good year. Kicked 40 gials in 16 games and just showed he was ready for next step. Instead of selecting him, Eagles decided to pick up a treasure chest...

    Coach Coach for 2025

    The body isnt even cold yet, BUT we need to get acting on this immediately. We should be sounding out candidates tomorrow and getting offers in before other clubs enter the fray For me its down to 3. Ashley Hansen Jaymie Graham Dean Cox I know everyone keeps saying Cox but think he has a...
