Re: Rate our draft
I've seen Parker a number of times this year and while he has talent it is still a big risk. He had troubled teen years and has only in the last 2 years had any impact at WAFL level. He has potential but not much would have to go wrong off the field for it to all blow up

Re: I cannot believe we are going to recruit.....
I've warmed to the idea as I don't think that Bruce is elite nor ever will be. McCartin still has time on his side and if we get any luck, he'll become a genuine gun full forward. If King lives up to the hype then a forward line consisting of Paddy, King, Battle, and Membrey could be a tasty forwar...

Re: Wooden Spoon or 17th in 2019
Our key weaknesses from last season haven't been addressed (at least in the trade window) and that is pace and elite ball use by foot. Our mid field apart from Steven is slow and one paced and their foot skills are horrid. Adding Hannebery does absolutely nothing to address that as he is slow (and ...

Re: picks
Don't get this "depth" thing, we have a list of players and the team finished 16th this year and so called experts want to add more players to the list who are no better than the ones we already have on the list. So what is the point? There isn't one, just like the players we have recruit...

Re: D!cks in our hands....
Even a rabble like Fremantle can attract two young up and coming stars and all we get is a burnt out, slow poor by foot midfielder that no one else wanted. That's right, you can spin it any way you want, but not one other club was interested in Hannebery and Sydney hardly put up a fight to keep him-...

Re: Gold Coast are taking fringe players... Are we actually sending them Mav Weller?
To be fair, Mav was alright there for a while. Poor man's Aaron Hamill with his tackling. Would rather a crocked Mav Weller than Jack Newnes...... that's how low Newnes is in my estimations. If he starts Round 1, we have a serious problem. I have news for you- it wont take Newnes starting in round ...

Re: Hall for Pick 68 // Scrimshaw for a 2019 3rd Rounder
Our list is fine ... we will trade aggressively.... we have delivered “f all” so far .... I wouldn’t say f**k all, Hannebery is still an A-grader, was previously elite but possibly past his best now, hence why we got him relatively cheaply. Kent though, let’s be honest, is just another depth player...

Re: our team with players in best position
Looking at the midfield- all I can see is slow, Steven excepted. Dunstan, Ross, Sinclair, Armo and even Clark. Longer has the speed of slow drying cement. All one-paced runners, and this is why we need to bring in some burst speed in the midfield. Can't see an easy fix to this in the short term. He...

Re: What if we are done?
I concur, if that's all we are adding (Kent and Haneberry), then we will finish in the bottom 4 at best. The club cant be knocked for having a crack, we are just not that appealing atm. We just have to accept that the rebuild failed and that it is going to take time- the big challenge will be holdin...

Re: Hannebery Deal Tomorrow
There is absolutely no way Pick 39 gets the job done.. we’re a basket case, will be the future second. At this rate we should get a priority pick anyway next year If pick 39 is not enough we should walk away- he is simply not worth it. Its about time the saints showed some balls. Sydney don't want ...

Re: AFL trade 2018 Is A Failure
Most of the other clubs have brought in some good players and improved their list. We have added hannerbery and lost Hicky. In effect we have taken a step backwards or at best remain the same.
