Well whats our likely round 1 team looking like.

The cupboard isnt totally empty but how many covid outs will be critical.

B Williams JK Ryan
Petro Waterman Rioli
Gaff Kelly West
Rotham Gov Witherden
HEdwards Barrass Hurn

Nic Redden SPS

Langdon, Nelson, XON, J Jones

Emg: Foley, Dixon?

We will need top up players sooner than most I recon.

Duggan still a bit off....
 
Might as well repost this here (and probably in the first 4-5 team threads)

If SPS plays like a top 5 pick now he's in his preferred position, we might be able to keep up with that team. Forward line isn't too bad and neither is defence, it's our mids that are ****ed

The issue is after that we have not much left in mature players.

The bench is also developing, which isnt terible.

L Edwards and Winder still kids.

Thought Duggan and Shuey would get there?

If they are ready. In for XON and one of JJ/Langdon/Petro

Think Duggan plays on a wing early
 
Hough to add some swervability down back from mine... (plus a debut will at least add some interest to a looming rd 1 loss)

B: Hurn HEdwards Barrass
HB: Witherden McGovern Hough
C: Gaff Jones Duggan
R: Naitanui Kelly Redden
HF: BWilliams Waterman Petruccelle
F: Rioli Kennedy Ryan

I: Rotham Petrevski-Seton Nelson West

Doesn't look too bad to me
Also finally get an answer to where Trew has disappeared off to.

Luke Edwards (groin) and Zane Trew (shin soreness) are two players the Eagles would have liked to have been able to turn to given their midfield issues, but neither will be available for the AAMI Community Series clash against Fremantle.
 
FB: Hurn Barrass Nelson
HB: Rotham McGov Foley
C: Gaff Redden SPS
HF: Petrol Dixon Jones
FF: Rioli Kennedy Ryan
R: NN Xon Kelly
I: Witherden, Langdon, Williams, Waterman
Sub: West if ok, or Winder if not.

Leftover for WAFL: Jamieson, Duggan (match fitness), Hough, J Williams, Edwards, West (Inj ?)/Winder

How many years has Oneill been at it for now? If he cant start as a midfielder with this level of decimation I fear for his footballing future
You’re not wrong, midfield is decimated and he’s struggling to get a game, why keep him on the list if this is the case. Firmly in the delist category at this stage. We have a very poor record at drafting and developing midfielders recently.

Didn't we just give him a 2yr extension? (not against extending him, but 1yr seemed sufficient)

With all the covid stuff going on in Perth and 50% caps on crowd and the potential of even no crowds come round one, and the rest of the country fully open now, Any chance we could swap our games with gold coast and give them the home game for round one so we can fill optus stadium later on in the year when we play them again?
