The original discussion was the Tigers would leap frog us in their rebuild after this draft and trade period.

My view was they won't until they balance the list.

Agreed we pretty much have our talls and are already getting games into them plus other mids. And we are much more balanced age wise to hopefully run the kms in games we need to. Apply the pressure needed.
We have our tall forwards. Gov won't last much longer and hopefully HEdwards keeps improving and can stay on the field.rucks suck Midfield is a weak point too
Not overly balanced

Stock’s media release reads very condescending to me.

At least own your mistakes. 3 for 12 and 14 was a poor deal however you spin it.

It may have been the best offer at the time, in that case we needed to change our approach. We could have moved 3 into future picks or a combination of current and futures.

Hopefully the player we pick at 12 is a star and we all move on.
 
We have a heap of players that age on our list already. Unfortunately a few were injured, and the rest just treading water in the cesspool that is our WAFL team

Maybe if we get some new leaders around the place, a fresh look and an improvement in standards, some of the young players on our list languiishing in the Beagles can actually progress enough to get into the 22 and show what they have
We dont. In 21-25 age range this year who played AFL

WCE - Chesser, Hough, Brockman, L.Edwards. H.Edwards, Jamieson, B.Williams
Hawks - Ward, Dambrosio, Serong, Butler, Ramsden, Macdonald, Ginnivan, Mitchell, Newcombe, Day, Maginness, Moore

Hawks 21-25 year olds were miles ahead to say the least.

Just looking at the DGB delisting . Pick 6 2020 .

That whole draft year for everyone was a shocker . I looked back at the picks and Essondon had 3 top 10 picks . How are they doing ? We got Tim Kelly
It wasn't as disastrous a trade as everyone thinks looking at draft numbers on its own .
Happy Mastenator pointed out pick 3 averages 120 games. Pick 12 averages 90 . So the way I see it if we get 30 games out of Baker we are in front of the pick 3 split .
 
Seriously though - I’m just praying we are playing the long game to snatch Warner from freo
The Baker trade has nothing to do with trading in Warner.

We got an F1 and F2 for Barrass. That, with our F1 is enough to pay Sydney.

There's no long game here. Clarke just rooted us.
 
I still think Freo ****ed up way worse in trade week.

My Guess is that Bolton doesn't play more than 50 games for them. (& they paid up 2+ firsts)

Okay. Care to expand?
 
He was worse than the ammos.
Yeah. The bloke looked like he regretted signing up to the draft in the first place.

Ah well, shit happens. If he makes a career out of it somewhere else, it’ll hopefully shine a torch on how shithouse our reserves situation is
 
Finals huh? Gotta love the positivity!
If you are an Eagles supporter why be a pessimistic Kent there are too many of them on this forum.
Too many people seem to post too either get likes or just have no fecking idea!
NO! Bender; I’m not talking about you!
Nor you Astro, just an observation.
We have been dealt the hand we have been dealt.
Let’s concentrate on making a hand good enough to win the deal.
We’ve all vented! It’s over!!

When he stops ignoring that trade options can and do accelerate rebuilds he won't cop it so much.

And also doesn't brag on the Lions site he likes to come on here and stir Eagles supporters.
You don't know what's being traded tho. We've been linked to plenty of the last couple of years that haven't eventuated and when we do trade guys in ppl go nuts that we've paid too much.

Why is there a random table in the middle of the locker room?

I don't want to cast dispersions, but I'm starting to think that all this "professional wrestling" might not be real.
Wait, wait, wait...

Your telling me Mae Young didn't actually give birth to a hand?! 🤯

That table is where the Gatorade cups go, but as there were none to knock over he flipped the table instead

Jokes on you, I post to get likes AND have no fecking idea.
 
Culley, Burgiel & Witherden gone. Pissed off about the first two. This club is really not making good decisions at the moment and during a rebuild it's deeply disturbing.
We're trying to move forward. Burgiel looked lacklustre when he could get on the pitch. Culley was limited but tried.

Burgers and Jai unlucky for mine. I wish them well and hope they find another footy home.

I don’t think unlucky, possibly Jai with the ACL recovery factored in - but feel like the club had seen and knew enough regardless to let them go.

I hope the same goes for Rotham & Edwards soon. I also hope some land with other clubs - for them, and also so they can go weaken another list a bit

Not to mention the $$$ fat cat contract and being back home with the bad influences.

Big Fish trades never tend to work out because their best is usually behind them.
Bolton is good at the Dusty cheat role- however likely won't be afforded the same freewheeling role at Freo.
Probably goes the Acres/Hill/Lobb/Menegola/Hogan route after being shit for a few years.
