Nothing similar about Baker and Warner. Completely different circumstances. Why did Baker choose WCE…WCE will have to kick up a significant number to lure Warner.
The article in the West? That newspaper is absolute garbage…more accurate mail on here. Sports editor thinks he’s running a school newspaper. Actually embarrassing.
I don’t think he has any plans to return home given he has been pushing for Warner to get to WCE. Both players have been in regular contact. WCE have got a war chest to throw at Chad. They will need to kick up a big figure to get him to agree to a rebuild.
Haha spoke to the great man this morning and well before Knobel landed at GC. Such GC move. Sandi is a big fan of Reidy and he’s decent depth for Freo. The only loss that will be felt for Knobel is at Peel reserves.
Brayshaw isn’t going anywhere and Reid will be living with Andy until Freo find him a permanent home. Pickett had one last catch up with Freo while in WA for the GWABA football carnival down south. I’d say he will be traded into Freo next year.
For Baker, McQualter being named coach of WCE was the only thing he was weighing up. Even though he didn’t need to, he nominated an hour or so after WCE announced McQualter to take over coaching at the eagles. That was the driving force behind his decision, not money or a team he went for as a kid.
From what I was told about McDonald from his family was Freo had upped their offer and reply from his management was he was not after more money, just very settled in Sydney with his partner.
Mentioned it before in this thread and I’ll drop it again, Warners partner lives in Perth. That’s the...
I’d definitely throw Winder a lifeline and he deserves it. Went down and watched the Souths v Peel game and he was a cut above the rest. Kept the dogs in it for four quarters. He averages 25 a game and just under a goal playing most of his minutes in the midfield but is dangerous when he goes up...
The noise on McDonald was big leading into this season and then Treacy came on like Wayne Carey which most didn’t expect to occur from a bloke pulled out of a rookie draft. McDonald did sign late in the piece, July or August and took unders. Warner different situation.
