If you're a current eagle spud and reading this, request a trade or retire. Cheers.

Trade bait - Lycett, Mackenzie (surely this is a must), Marsden
Delist - Butler, Lecras (hopeful over Hill), Giles, Mcinnes, Tunbridge, Snadden, Petrie (would love him to stay on TBH)
Potential targets - Acres, Hopper
Personally i think finding an eventual JK replacement via the draft is going to be a tough ask, nothing KPF this year and unless we bottom out or score a decent pick next year we're not going to have much of a selection. We'd do better to try and lure someone home i think. We had the opportunity to do that with Lobb and Hogan i guess but clearly it didn't fit in with our recruitment strategy.
Got Gov as the break glass backup if we haven't had any luck, he's no slouch and could fill the FF role easily.
Draft - 1st pick on a midfielder, 2nd pick needs based, 3rd pick needs based, 4th + rookie a project ruckman

McKenzie is unrestricted free agent isn't he? Wouldn't net us much compensation either I imagine. Maybe Schofield as trade bait makes more sense.

Lobby just used wce to get a better deal at the GWS is what I make out of his rumoured Homesick bullshit ..
Isn't he 23?
23 today !!!
Sounds like a player we need. Wonder where he will go in the draft? 20-30?
He is damaging and gives good run through the midfield , late second round or third round pick probably but clubs must been keen on Tim Kelly for him to get an invite to the combine .....we could use a third round pick on Kelly around pick 40 maybe .
Issac Humphries didn't get drafted to the NBA. Get him in as a catergory B and go the Greenwood route.
Wasn't it all over the news that we had made offers to both, particularly Hogan?
I think people in Perth misunderstand the "go home" factor that Perth has. As someone who left Perth for Sydney, there's no way i want to go back to live in Perth. The same could be said of going to Melbourne, most people would consider those cities significantly better to live in.
So unless there's a really strong family pull back to Perth, most aren't going to be moved.

Yeah agree, I live in Perth and Melbourne prior to being in Sydney and I have no interest in leaving.
Agree also. Born and Raised in Perth, Lived in England, Sydney and now Melbourne and don;t see myself moving back to Perth till I retire (and even then its no guarantee). I'm very close to my family, but Melbourne is my home now, and Perth is where I'm from and my Family lives.

Have mentioned this before, but what are people’s thoughts on trying to lure Tom Phillips over from the Pies? Might be able to offer him more money than the pies, and would be a handy player given the desire of some posters to want to trade Gaff, and the hopeful trade of Masten (please dons or anyone else take him). His out of contract at the end of this year so unsure what we would have to give up for him (he went Pick 58 in the draft)

Monocle you would be pleased with who they picked for us.

I would be happy with Higgins at that position.
He gets his hands on the ball at clearances and is a proven goal kicker. Only downside is his height and I will happily live with that.
I don't know if I posted this before but I've read that Higgins has a stand out work ethic and I think our recruiters like that more than most.
