That's good. He's getting old (29 in 3 weeks time) and I want him retiring at Freo. Don't want Freo getting a boost to their soon-to-be-needed rebuild by getting compensation for a player that's already given his best years to the club. When Mundy retires at Freo, they get nothing. Freo will fall off the cliff when all their retirements come on - and that time is approaching quickly.

I have been thinking the same thing, their premiership window closes this year in my OP, it will be closed for a long time too.
Imagine how hideous watching a Ross Lyon coached team full of average players will be, the purple will soon return to the norm.

Your spot on Freo are the saints of 09/10 version 2.0 and look where the saints are now. Freo will make the grandy this year and lose and then in the next 1-2 years when Pav, Mundy, Sandy, MacPharlap and co retire they will fall so fast it won't be funny as I don't see them developing any players to replace them, they seem to be throwing everything at this years flag without any thought for the future.

So they want him as ruck depth? We can offer him 15 games at least next season as a forward/ruck with Cox unlikely to play them all, if he goes on, and Nics durability always a issue.

Sorry for invading but as I'm a WA boy I felt that I might get a bit of leniency. My question, Is it time for the eagles to bite the bullet and go do a full rebuild? With the right trades and a bit of luck you could be a force in 2017, and that's not being a smart ass.
I wouldn't mind drafting him if we did have another top 20 pick. Just don't think he would fix our midfield problems and therefore not worth our top 10 pick.

Most of our supporters have wanted greater list turnover for the last 5 years or so. We haven't gone deep in drafts at all recently. Club has been too "loyal". We don't need a full rebuild but a full midfield rebuild for sure.

West Coast already has a lot of youth, they a have a young squad. I'm disinclined to believe we've got the immediate upside to challenge in the next few years. But you never know, things can change quickly with a few players rounding out their games and maturing into leadership roles, throw in talented kids and you can be causing headaches for the punters.
Not sure a "rebuild" is a term people want to use anymore, but with a new coach i'd hope we'd have some significant turnover of our list.
Well for starters I would be trading anyone who is worth anything for a in and under ball winner. Not just that but a top mid then you guys are on your way. Best future ruck man(nicnat)with a player like josh Kennedy and you are going to take advantage of an elite forward group. Add a very good half back precision kicker and I think your team turns a corner

I do not know who put the well ingham deal together, but I think he should be sacked! He is the weakest footballer I've seen, silky skills without size and strength in today's game is not needed
