List Mgmt. Contracts. Trades. Draft. Other Assorted Crap. 2020 Edition

[MrWoollie]

Geelong are laughing at us rn

well thats not good..geez that kelly trade is look yuck now

Always did. From the start maintained that 2021 1st + high 2019 2nd (Sydney's pick) + our 201 2nd was more than fair.
Then use pick 16 to get Larke Medallist Deven Robertson if he was still there (he was) as a WC supporting mid of exactly the type we needed.

 

[the harry]

No

What's the knock on him?

 

[West Coast 06]

No

Petch keep him out?

 

[BigVic]

Patrick Cripps would mean another MID. We need a backline

 

[amazingjoshy]

Does anyone think A Waterman would be B22 in 2021 if he came to us?

Yep

 

[Avalor]

Venners played as bad as ainsworth did yesterday in the 2018 grand final yet he's somehow built these mythological abilities
If he doesnt retire he should be delisted

As DT said, "No, that's wrong! "

 

[greatwhiteshark]

What's the knock on him?

I think he is a run of the mill player, very laconic and under vastly different pressure at AFL level I think he might struggle.
Only one way to find out though I guess, but I would be looking at young tough midfielders ahead of him.

 

[FreeTK]

Yep

Just saw the second goal he kicked.

Club should get on the phone to tomorrow and set him up for train on period in January.

 

[Carbine Chaos]

If A Waterman isn’t on our list next year, but Foley Ainsworth etc are, then just end me then and there.

 

[CoastersFlag No.5]

And he wasn’t even invited to the draft combine...

Yeah well Petrucelle ran a 2.87 second 20m sprint which if you round it up is the same as the number of possessions he had in a losing elimination final.

 

[CoastersFlag No.5]

With rugby background?

Don't know about that. Today he was dominant and made very few errors.

 

[FreeTK]

No

3 goals in a WAFL GF shouldn't be sneezed at.

We could pick him up for nothing in the SSP.

 

[Eaglesliveagain]

Would love to know what Ainsworths role actually was last night. And what we see it if he unfortunately is given another contract.

Did we seriously pass up all those good mids in the draft to select "the best clearance player" only to play him forward?


6 touches, 3 clangers, and failed to lay a tackle.

He isn't locking down on anyone... he isn't a forward, he has zero speed (despite the AFL tracker meme) so i really don't get it.


Why was he playing?? Someone on the MC plz come in and tell me Jetta couldn’t have eclipsed that and provided twice as much.

Absurd.

While I agree with what you're saying for me it was petch. Happy to play one of them but couldn't carry both

If we can do that then that’s fine.

 

[MrWoollie]

With Ainsworth it appears that the only role we have tried him in where he looks ok is the tagging one.
If that's what he can do then he has a place on the list. But Hutchings doesn't as we can really only carry one tagger.
As it stands right now, if he has a specific player to tag he plays, if there is no tagging to be done, he doesn't.

 

[Eaglesliveagain]

For a comparison think alec waterman would be a bit like lecras. Smart footballer who will play forward and midfield. Would also like Duggan to continue with some midfield time and shuey more on a forward flank.

if Waterman offers us more than Reid or Brayshaw , lets do it

 

[Tugga27]

That's a pretty low bar.

My Nanna gives us more than Brayshaw and Reid.

I would say using Ainsworth is currently plan B if one our starting mids goes out.

We need to have options in the midfield before we get to that point, as it is pretty dire option.

The fact that Ainsworth gets a gig as soon as one player (Yeo last night) isn't available is an indictment on our depth.

Interesting that vanirsen wasn’t invited to the draft combine... jack clarke medalist and clearly the best on ground today

Would love to know why . Looks Afl ready .

 

[Eastcoasteagle]

Would love to know why . Looks Afl ready .

Potentially Subi and Claremont players didn't attend because of the game will have later testing.

 

[The Stid]

Where does Vanirsen go in the draft, draft watchers? Very impressed with him today. Wilson( I think?) for Claremont colts was impressive in traffic at times as well, thoughts on him?

He wasn’t invited for testing at the combine which means no clubs registered interest. Technically it doesn’t mean he can’t be picked up, but it’s unlikely.

Commentary team said he wasn’t ready yet and he might be looked at next year. I think he might be a very late pick, possibly around for us at the 3rd round mark if the club likes him.

 

[Dark Sharks]

Another Subi overager to join our list after Ainsworth and Foley?

Where do I sign

 

[AsterixTheGaul]

So for the last year I have been pushing the Alec Waterman barrow and suggested anyone wanting to know more about him to watch today.

Not sure how others felt but in a depleted Claremont forward line, he was the silver lining.

Can anyone seriously say that Alec Waterman would not have been a better option than Ah Chee, Ainsworth or Petruccelle?

Come on West Coast, just draft him.
