    I mean it’s not like he’s having bags kicked on him every week, but certainly hasn’t maintained the trajectory we hoped. Either a symptom of our overall backline being terrible or the midfield experiment has killed his mojo

    The only guy after TMac to have shown any dash from half back is Bo Allan who was conveniently dropped. But to be fair his influence had dropped off and he wasn’t getting enough of the ball in the last couple of weeks. Ironically we ended up needing an extra tall back against the Tigs which...

    Exactly. Maybe if he was a couple of years older for cheap, or a couple of years younger so he’ll be around when we climb. Weitering is still rated amongst the top key backs in the league and at 29 would have plenty of VIC clubs going hard in contention. Or there’s always the cowards route up to...

    He’s also still one of the best clearance players in the game. He had his worst game in a long time on the weekend. Last I saw he was ranked #4 in the comp for clearances, Neale was #1 and is our preferred target. We suck at winning clearances and there’s a huge burden on Harley so either would...

    Agreed re Rivers. Hasn’t shown enough. People writing off Busslinger after a bad game last year as a 21 year old KPD were off their chops. Everyone knows talls take longer. First round pick, local lad who plays in our position of most need. On the weekend just quietly had the most spoils (16)...

    Aleer is the guy we should’ve got instead of Young. We paid pick 38 for Young, GWS wanted an F2 from Saints for Aleer. Only 194cm but holds the combine record for running vertical (5cm higher than NicNat). Interesting to see him playing that similar role to Mac Andrew in the last few weeks as...

    Jeez you really just like to argue about nothing hey… So are you saying that FRod and Allen should’ve gone earlier in the draft as they were? Or only in the fantasy scenario that you paint where one wasn’t injured and the other was less ‘vanilla’? Lol don’t flatter yourself. You can call them...

    I view it as reality that Allen went at pick 29 in a weak draft and FRod was picked up as a rookie, with our first but also last selection in the rookie draft as has been clarified. FRod didn’t slide to the rookie draft just because he’s vanilla. He wasn’t rated as good enough. Plenty were...

    There’s always reasons that a player could’ve gone higher if this or that, but at the end of the day FRod went undrafted by every club and was thrown a lifeline by the wooden spooners with our final rookie pick. Pretty clear he wasn’t rated when it mattered. Hopefully it was just a down year and...

    Hopefully, but they also may not. Neither were that highly rated in a weak draft. Generally a lot more confidence in the mids taken in the top handful. Some fresh KPD stocks to develop would be wise but they won’t be ready to bolster on field for a while. We need immediate support so trade/FA...

    Exactly. Would love to see him as a third tall with more freedom to intercept and run around like a madman. And to be fair that’s what would’ve been the vision with a fit Edwards and Young playing better. Kudos to Reubs for stepping up, it would be very ugly back there without him.

    Good team. I’ll dabble in a few changes based off your template. I haven’t seen anything to suggest the club will send Archer back so I would move him to the bench as second ruck in place of BW (as much as I like Baz). He will be in his fifth year by then, CDT will be third year so would...

    Moyle would be great, he’s a good age (24) tall (206) and athletic so should be helped by the new rules. But after waiting this long at GC, with plenty of offers from his home state of VIC, it would be a massive surprise and require big overs, which is risky given he’s only played 13 games so...

    It really felt like a perfect summation of our defence on the weekend. Ginbey dominating. Young kicking the ball into Brock’s back, ball spilling to the opposition and resulting in an immediate turnover goal 🫠

    JUH to play this week. Walter watch re role. Guessing Read plays up the ground, King/Walter/JUH forward. Farrar won’t be playing any time soon with an ankle injury.

    Not to say he couldn’t play back, but it would be a weird sell at this point in his career when he’s just starting to hit his straps, to come across the other side of the country and be played out of position. Big gamble for him. He would have plenty of suitors with good contracts to play in...

    Hopefully he proves us wrong but I was far more keen on Leek Aleer at the time for a similar price (Young cost pick 38, GWS wanted an F2) but it seems we had already committed to Young by the time the Saints shafted Aleer. Plus always the question of whether they would come to WA I suppose.

    This is true. They are all 2nd/3rd talls. But Ginbey is the one who has had to step up. Brock and Young have still been the 2nd/3rd talls and still struggled. Look at the Derby, Treacy is Freo’s best tall by far, and one of the best in the league right now. Reuben holds him to 1 goal and 3...

    There has been some suggestions around going after a state league ruck. Just a friendly reminder that even Flynn can look good in the WAFL. 23 disposals and 50 hit outs today… P Cripps has dabbled in the ruck in the past.. If BW leaves then it’s over to AReid with support form CDT and...

    That’s is likely. Seems like slim pickings on the state league market for KPDs. Bazzo has actually started the year well going by the stat sheet but not sure how he has looked. Might get thrown an opportunity this year if Young/Brock continue to underwhelm. Make or break year for him. Hopeful...

    Keen to see how Charlie Dean builds into the year at Perth. 24 year old 195cm key/intercept defender. Interestingly is from VIC but chose to come and play WAFL after being delisted by Collingwood. Might be worth a punt if no other KPDs put their hand up by MSD time. But realistically would...

    People are forgetting he was injured all preseason. He was dominant first game back, albeit not the strongest opposition. Once at full fitness, with the rule tweaks and the age he is now, he could be pretty good. At the very least a lot better than Flynn.

    Neale ranked #1 and Cripps #4 in the comp for clearances. Our leading clearance winner has the lowest number out of all clubs, ranked #36 overall.
