Apologies for any inconvenience. We will try to find a replacement.
Apart from the obvious WA factor, I think the appeal may come from how much we chase him. Seems like when we want a player, we really don't play hard-to-get: see that Jackson article on the AFL website. If a similar situation happened with Logan, that probably puts us in good stead to try to poach him.
Hopefully Treacy has a terrific season next year and shuts down any talk of trading in another KPF. He kicked 15 from 17 games this season. If he can kick 25+ that'll be good enough for me. Sturt is the one for me that is set for a big year.

Pretty sure Jacksons mum said Walls was there at the birth
Yeah, Amiss is the better player, I have no doubt about that. McDonald I think is a Todd Marshall level (maybe slightly better) of a good KPF for 10 years but not someone people think is special
At conception is the type of commitment I'm after.
I’d be surprised if we aren’t after JVR, would really compliment Amiss, wrecking ball type and imo shows more intent than McDonald.
If we start really unicorning with Jackson though, maybe we need that extra tall even if Treacy takes another step. So to amend the Old El Paso ads slogan: Por qué no los tres?
Your name loses it's sparkle when you're traded for a packet of chips.
Maybe its part of the master plan. Stack all our quality players into 3-4 drafts and then trade heavily for as many other quality players from those drafts that you can get your hands on. Once they hit their prime at the same time we are an unstoppable force.
Because the team is primed to peak between 2025-2028. We don't need an 18 year old to hit their peak in 2029. We need a 22 year old to hit their peak in 2025. If I was Walls I'd be looking at every good West Australian key position player (forward and back) between the ages of 21-25. It's time to go all chips in.
Taylor is the only one worth "all chips in".
Mcdonald is a big upgrade on Treacy. Is it possible most are over rating Treacy?
This is so true.
Nope.
Bloody hard to know where to rate Treacy. He does look too good for WAFL, and is still young - but next year is his fourth in the AFL system and I reckon we will have more of an idea then. He really needs to improve his marking. Drops a lot of them for a tall forward. At the end of the day, he still has only kicked 15 goals for the year. Needs 30-40 to be a good centre half forward at AFL level. Mihocek has averaged 40 goals a year for the past 3 years. If he reaches Mihoceck level in the next 2/3 years it will go a long way towards us winning a premiership. It's a big if though.
