Yeah I know a couple guys that know Woodhouse they said that he was slack and never got off his arse much , jobs for the boys i afraid

Your full of shit Rohan Obrien has been in charge the last three years and he is based full time in Melbourne.
 
Why don't we just hire every scout in the country so that no other clubs have any at all and we get all the best talent.

This would totally work :p
No just get good ones ,they've been crap the last years
 
Did any of you even read the list from Fivey? There are 2 Vic scouts, plus another one in Victoria, Rohan O'Brien, he's the important one. Our recruiting, as of last year, I believe, is now based in Melbourne.
Woodhouse has done a fine job over the years, and I've been a critic at times, but to single the brothers out is to narrow the focus too much. ;)
Not singling the bros out just the one that's still there

Dazzle and hutchings are midfield backups. Scooter is an above average midfielder. Rosa has been a decent wingman, Gaff will be a good- above average wingman and Shepherd is coming along. I think there's a place for Priddis in our midfield where a lot of people on this board don't (don't forget he was taken in the rookie draft)

You look at our spine and it's good. Midfield is ok in my opinion, need 1 or 2 pacey outsiders but I think we're looking ok for 2014.
Yes I agree with a fit team we will be ok, it's just when we cop injuries our second tier guys , haven't stood up where the good sides second tier players have and I still think we need stronger bodied midfielders that can hurt othe side with their kicking
 
Which ones and how long? You need some decent grounding before slagging off the management of the club as nothing but a "boys club".
Iam not slagging off the the management ,you are saying that , it's my belief that there are people on the recruiting side of things that are not good enough for the club and it is obvious as our recruiting,in not only my opinion but others opinions that in the last 3 odd years they have missed some good players and recruited some duds .
 
I'm not concerned about any other club , this is a forum for west Coast, my best thoughts are for west coast

My point is that predicting how kids will transition to AFL isn't an exact science and so every club is going to "miss some good players and recruit some duds".

But you originally blamed that on the "fact" it's jobs for the boys. That's saying that those running the club are putting the interest of themselves and their friends above the interest of the club as a whole.

That is my opinion with the info I have, is it 5 people that have just gone ??
 
Murray Newman just posted a picture on Instagram after a running session. Good to see him putting in effort in his off-season.

If he's still on the list at the end of the year it'll be great to see him turn up to pre-season in good shape.
 
Did ok in the Grand final sprint, I think he ran 5th in his heat and qualified for the final where he didn't do so well...but was up against Dangerfield, Rohan, etc.

It wasn't Newman in the sprint, it was Bennell.

That isn't the entire list, there are others.
Anyway isn't this thread about Murray Newman?
