[Miguel Sanchez]

How many picks we taking today chums?

Three more after Thomas and Rowley

 

[Miguel Sanchez]

That seems like a surprise, thought we had key backs fairly well covered?

Really thought we would have gone with Lakay

 

[Monocle]

Really thought we would have gone with Lakay

Watch the Purples swoop her up.

Same. Possibly banking that Freo don’t need rucks?

 

[Cursedsword02]

I trust Parris Laurie to handle the ruck load herself. We needed depth out back after delisting Perera.

 

[Monocle]

I love the Rowley pick .

 

[Biggie]

Already spoke to Amy

What a kid. Love her to bits

I’m shattered

How do we lure her back

How is she with the Purps ?

 

[garlic munchers]

Yeahhhhhh Rowley. Stoked.

Expected her and Thomas around the other way but that’s awesome!

This, Rowley is a huge get and just so composed with the ball (way more than Thomas and Franklin IMHO).

Quite ironic really, our AFLW team will have an awesome midfield and our AFL team not so much.

Whereas our AFL team has a glut of key forwards and…

 

[Cursedsword02]

Freo passed on Lakay too. Wow.

 

[Carbine Chaos]

Needed a tall defender after the cutting of Perera.

 

[Miguel Sanchez]

Oh good, we’re not picking up Dana East.

(Disclaimer: I had absolutely nothing against her apart from her name)

 

[Miguel Sanchez]

Crows have finished up after three selections, so I wonder if we’ll leave a spot open for a UFA from SA like we did last year with Ward and Gauci?

 

[AlphaSheep]

Like I said about Lakay, she can certainly jump, but I'm not sure if she can run. Can't play at this level if you can't run, still might get picked later though.

Schilling is a great mark, interesting choice. Also not sure about her mobility.

Dana East will probably turn out to be the steal of the WA draft for Freo.

The AFLW Draft File: Pick No. 24 - Beth Schilling

Get to know pick No. 24 and No. 4 in the WA State Draft, Beth Schilling!

www.westcoasteagles.com.au

Eagles site lists Schilling as a Key Defender/Ruck. And she's the same height as Laurie too.

Guess we wanted a two-for-one package.

On a similar note, at least I’m not going to need to learn how to spell Tuhakaraina.

 

[Cursedsword02]

WE GOT LAKAY!

 

[Johnny Eagle]

I like Schilling, not sure I’d have taken her that high but still think she is good. Flat about Tuhakaraina though….

 

[Miguel Sanchez]

If it was a gamble that Freo wouldn’t grab Lakay, it’s worked thankfully.

 

[Biggie]

Dana East will probably turn out to be the steal of the WA draft for Freo.

Agreed

 

[bUCKET__]

Flat about Tuhakaraina though….

Her highlights look amazing, but I wonder if we already have her strengths covered in the squad. We've done really well to draft to our needs imo
