Think he’ll get more than a game or two?

Has there been an update on Witt’s injury?

witts already missed a couple games this year, i cant imagine he will get rushed back before GC bye.... think moyle can make 100k+ quickly and is a pretty good option for those who were running sweet at r2

Mid-Season Eagles’ recruit shines in tight WAFL win​

A fellow former mid-season draft pick and an off-season recruit also starred in the victory.​

Pick three of the recent AFL Mid-Season Rookie Draft, Jack Hutchinson has torn up his opening appearance for West Coast's WAFL side, booting half of his team's goals in a hard-fought two-point win over Perth.

Five goals to Hutchinson were pivotal in the win, and got his team back in the contest late in the second. After nailing his first mid-way through the opening term, his next two came in quick succession late in the second to cut Perth's lead under a goal.
His fourth gave West Coast the lead in the final term, before the fifth came in time-on to give his side the lead once again.

While the former Collingwood VFL star stole the show with this game-winning performance, another former mid-season draft pick in Jai Culley was close to best on ground with 30 disposals, 12 inside 50s, seven tackles and a match-sealing goal for himself, potentially opening a spot for himself back in the senior side.

Off-season pick-up from Hawthorn Tyler Brockman was another crucial cogg in the victory, collecting 18 damaging disposals including five inside 50s and a major.

Following West Coast's 14-point loss to St Kilda, which saw the Saints run over the Eagles in the last quarter, Simpson will be faced with some healthy selection headaches moving forward as he looks to bolster his side's fourth quarter legs with some exciting potential inclusions such as Hutchinson, Culley and Brockman.

Fans can expect the recent mid-year pickup to earn a gig sooner rather than later, even with newfound goal-kicking star Jake Waterman set to return next week.

moyle should be a terrific cash cow for anyone able to jump on

Witts.

 

[rye]

Witts.

dont think he will be back before gold coasts bye, pending the severity of his hamstring issue moyle could play until end of byes and be ready to cull for final upgrade

 

[SC fish]

Witts.

Suns win = no changes (hopefully)

 

[Jiska]

Witts.

Won’t come in next week before the Bye.

 

[Pure_Ownage]

Won’t come in next week before the Bye.

Hardwick is saying he might.

With Crouch gone for the year, surely Billy Dowling gets the call up now. $123k mid/fwd

Has been playing very well in the SANFL and the Crows finals hopes have gone up in flames.

Would hope to see a few rookies from Adelaide from here.

Adelaide kenties, any likely ones?

Nothing I can see being a home-run .....Dowling probably gets a taste ....I'd be more inclined to say Curtin gets more opportunities in the 2nd half of the season ....they need to pump games into him, given it's season over

Zac Taylor is one I hope gets a look

 

[Better Loosen Up]

I'll pretty much take anyone who gets selected right now...

The Dons have so many halfback/wings in their side already though. Plus Duursma, Hobbs and Parish all back in within the next month.

 

[Spacedog]

Norf fans is Wil Dawson expected to play forward or back? I think he was playing a bit of both? I like him as a swing option with Sexton and Fisher but don't want to trade in a mega dud who scores 30s and then is dropped

That would make sense but knowing how the crows operate it'll just be a full game for Berry

Been defence all year.
If anyone goes forward it's comben.
Idk about his scoring I think it will be pretty bad.

Will he stay in the team through the byes you think?

46 BE
best 18 round

Comben owners can wait and see.

I'm not sure.
Pink is the obvious out.
He's been playing f/r
For me it's one of two options.
Either kawson comes in and comben goes forward or teakle comes in directly for pink.
I prefer the later myself. Dawsons the future and playing well.
I reckon he stays in but clarko is crazy

I'm trading Comben to Houston as soon as he bottoms out.

No rush atm.

I'm keeping comben at f6 . 3 round average of 88. He's close enough. Hopefully I can't push him to f7 when Rankine comes back .

 

[brutus76]

MID SEASON pickups Blight and Gray will be in the mix for the Tigers as they played VFL on weekend
Blight down back would let them play Balta forward seeing Lefau is out

Hoping Thorstrup gets a game for the Dees and Dowling for the Crows as DPP

 

[VainGlorious]

I'll pretty much take anyone who gets selected right now...

Even Jack Bytel?

Even if he starts to play as a permanent forward?
