How does that happen?

Freo have managed it in recent years

 

[Obeanie1]

Freo have managed it in recent years

Fair.

But we are not Freo.

We dont have top 10 draft picks ask for trades home that net a replacement top 10 pick.

 

[Get_The_Gaff]

Correct me if I'm wrong but don't we have to use a 1st round pick in the draft this year?

2022 1st for best available mid in the draft

Future 1st for McDonald

As for English he is ooc now but in 2 years he will be a free agent .

Very much like how port got lycett i would be happy to pay a bit extra cash and no picks for him in 2 years .

ATM I don't think English is a top 20 pick

 

[EagleEgo]

See if our 2022 R1 pick will be good enough to pick Jackson Broadbent. He is comparable to the 2019 Luke Jackson

Horse has bolted on Jackson, his worth is way too high! Have to give up too much to get him.

Logan McDonald is the one, came second in 2020 Wafl seniors goalkicking as a 17 year old. He went pick 4 in 2020, and Jye Amiss went pick 8 in 2021. Amiss never played a senior game in the Wafl, McDonald never played a colts game in 2020. It's truly rare for u18 players to play seniors in key positions. He did it with ease. Personally think he would've been pick 1 in 21' draft.

Yep.. my thoughts ad well.

I would have taken him as pick 1 in 2020

 

[WCE_phil]

I would have taken him as pick 1 in 2020

So would I. The swans probably place a similar value on him now and if he has a breakout year at AFL then it's 2 first rounders with a second or fringe player back anyway.,

If we're trading with the Swans, they no doubt would want our latest journeyman ruck from us.

Strnadica will look good in red and white.

 

[bl4ke]

The player we need to get home ASAP is Jeremy Sharp

 

[Dark Sharks]

Early list changes for mine, if 2022 plans out how it does in my head.


Kennedy (retire)
Hurn (retire)
Shuey (retire)

Nelson (OOC - Doubt he'll do enough to earn another)
Jamieson (OOC - Doubt he'll do enough to earn another)

Trew R (OOC - Doubt he'll do enough to earn another)


Redden stays on the list, as he's actually durable and you can't lose that amount of experience all at once.

 

[AsterixTheGaul]

In 15 months we are likely to be free of the following salaried
Darling
JK
Hurn
Shuey
Sheppard
Shuey
Redden
Not all on big coin but some would be. I’m thinking over $3 mln

We should be whispering in the ears of a multitude of WA under 22 year old offering serious $$

It will get the likes of Melbourne, Doggies, Brisbane and Port starting to see their cap squeezed. It is our responsibility to get the WA boys unsettled and thinking about coming home or pushing for more $$$$

WA talent - I’d start with the following 10 (I’m likely to have missed some)
1. Robertson at Lions
2. Sharp at Suns
3. Jackson at Dees
4. Warner at Swans
5. Georgiades at Port
6. Rivers at Dees
7. MacDonald at Swans
8. Grainger Barrass at Hawks
9. English at Dogs
10. Naughton at Dogs

Not sure how successful but at least be hurting the opposition lists

​

 

[FKASC]

Surely we can trade in a player who isn’t from WA too. The Kelly trade has left a bad taste in my mouth about bringing home local players.

 

[kane249]

SA players should be targeted (like Redden was)
I mean the alternative is living in SA so it's an easy sell

 

[AsterixTheGaul]

No reason not to go for non WA but we have are competing with 17 other clubs

We have a better chance with Perth born people

 

[RanaNaved]

Who would people rather, Elijah Hewett or George Wardlaw with our top 3 pick??

 

[Wally Walpamur]

Brander with 5 for GWS

 

[bzparkes]

Brander with 5 for GWS

That game's been going for about 5 hours. Probably playing against the Auskick kids.

 

[Altum Volantes]

+ Nic Nat will be elsewhere too. Flag chasing.

 

[AsterixTheGaul]

Who would people rather, Elijah Hewett or George Wardlaw with our top 3 pick??

Based on the football in their bottom age year, it’s tight but I’d go Elijah. He would be our centreman for the next 14 years. Tough, focussed, uncompromising yet with the skills to match it. As I say, it would be a nice decision to have and both kind of tick off my description . I’ve seen Hewitt play a few times where as George has been Covid hidden. It is a question like this that makes the carnival so important

 

[RanaNaved]

Wardlaw I've seen in trials, he's a monster at stoppages. Legs like tree trunks, almost impossible to bring down and another pretty complete mid.

 

[Obeanie1]

So the 2022 season is officially done and dusted based on what we've seen so far.

It’s time now to fully turn our attention to the off season and what we can do through the trade period/draft to chase down Melbourne in 2023.

Elijah, just looks a star for mine.

Wardlaw, goes to the school I went to. A few I know mentioned they were surprised he was rated so high, said he was good but not elite.
