    News Media Thread, 2024: Insightful, Inciteful and Incomptent

    Unpopular opinion… but here it goes.. old Hammer Brayshaw sure has tickets on himself these days doesn’t he? And a bit of salt towards West Coast (prob understandable… after the WAFL clean out, but still…)

    Strategy Back of House Discussion: Targets, Changes, Appointments & Facilities

    As much I've been wanting some 'outside of WC influences', I like this appointment. Think Pyke has had enough 'outside' experience to be a great CEO for the club. Has all the right attributes and experiences and coming from a successful and culture first club like Sydney is great for us...

    Strategy Back of House Discussion: Targets, Changes, Appointments & Facilities

    Yeah agreed, but I think this is telling in itself as to the lack of change / things are not overly harmonious amongst the powers that be. It's just annoying OK!...

    Strategy Back of House Discussion: Targets, Changes, Appointments & Facilities

    To say I'm disheartened by WC's lack of change is an understatement. There has been absolutely nothing other than a shuffling of the decks in coaching ranks. Not even communication on a review of some description, after a disastrous few years feels like such a slap in the face. The club is going...

    I was really hoping for some new blood in the assistant coaching ranks... It's not happening, is it? All spots filled?

    Yep, hard to argue with this. Below is from an article when starting out at Adelaide. His business acumen is certainly a positive as a CEO combined with his incredible football experience, including; AFL & WAFL Premiership player, B & F @ WC & Claremont, WC runner, Senior Coach AFL & WAFL, AFL...

    Strategy Back of House Discussion: Targets, Changes, Appointments & Facilities

    Allow me to add another complete hypothetical to the mix. I think the club should go hell for leather to add Travis Boak to their development coaching panel. He is an elite preparer, has a lot of experience in the AFL from his club being in the doldrums to regular finalists, dealing with taggers...

    Coach If not Simpson, then WHO

    Interesting, yeah cant I say I know him personally! Which si always a risk putting a bold statement out there, but I do like his story. Can I ask what the issues were? Cheers

    Coach If not Simpson, then WHO

    I like the idea of Jaymie Graham for a few reasons (and not because he's an ex Eagle) He's had experience at different AFL Clubs Saints, Eagles & Freo Plus senior WAFL coaching experience. (inc. AFL premiership coaching panel) He has had a rough upbringing and brings with him a story of real...

    News Media Thread, 2023: Insightful, Inciteful and Incomptent

    Totally agree, the club should be moving heaven & earth to get the absolute best in the industry into the footy dept (GM & Ops) and possibly more importantly Development Manager. Nothing wrong with promoting from within but not with the results we've since since these appointments. No disrespect...

    Totally agree with this! The good sides seem to have strong & visible footy managers & feel like Vozzo was certainly one of those. Think we need a stronger figure in this position. Nothing against Bell, I just concur with your comments, a quiet character etc. When atm we don't need meek & mild...

    News Jnr Rioli - He’s back.

    This sh*ts me, you don't think the club might be in consultation with Willie? Giving him some space / get his approval to post something on SM before just doing it? They're likely wanting to ensure they're respecting Willie, his family & his cultural guidelines when it comes to a death in the...

    Exit Plan for JK

    JK deserves to go whenever he wants, easily my top 5 eagle of all time. What I think should happen - goes after Adelaide game - last home game for the year; What I (kinda) selfishly hope happens, only as in a box for work for Derby & would love to see him sink Freos top 4 hopes while enjoying...

    Prediction Changes for Round 5 vs Sydney

    Straight in: Shuey, Kelly, SPS, Williams Out: Edwards, Naitanui, Jones, West (unlucky with MIDS available - perhaps good chance to get polish up disposal & confidence in WAFL) Through WAFL: Cripps, Yeo & Strndica (another wk & more minutes) & Allen should build through WAFL too when ready IMO.
