Yes, Erasmus all day every day. No brainer imo.

Yeah you take erasmus 100% johnson aint a bad second tho.
Pray the purples dont take erasmus

 

[Obeanie1]

Except they still think they can win it next year mids develop quicker talls take years

Except what?

I dont see any 18 year old helping us out much next season, only top 3 picks consistently impact in their 1st season and yes, mids not talls.

If we get close next season it wont be off an 18 year old getting drafted.

 

[Eastcoasteagle]

Amiss worries me cause he seems more like a third tall than a genuine KPF they way he plays. That said JK as forward didn't become a complete all round forward with 2014/15 in his late 20's (however, Jk's other parts of his game was still decent at that stage).

Yeah, hopefully our recruiters give him a miss.

 

[pride of the West]

Could see Clark doing well in Redden’s role after he retires.

But I think that would stall the development of Young Edwards as I see him being the favourite to to reddens place.

 

[Eastcoasteagle]

I think Erasmus plays like Le Cras, hard running half forward that's good overhead. Although his goal kicking is poor compared to Lecca. Erasmus could play off a wing.

MJ is inside midfield class, finds space in heavy traffic and has great disposal. Also spreads hard from the contest to be the next option in play, when he gets it on the outside he doesn't waste it.

We need both types of midfielder, but if we wanted an outside player I'd rather Wanganeen-Milera over Erasmus. That said, I'd rather Inside class so MJ please.

 

[WCErevival]

How is that concerning? Many years we didn't finish low enough to earn a top 10 pick. We won't get one this year either.

Going forward. You generally dont win premierships with a team full of battlers.

 

[pride of the West]

DOOMSDAY SCENARIO: West Coast fail to lure untried random depth Ruckman Jordan Sweet Potato from the Bulldogs as backup in 2022.

Why wouldn’t they wait and a year ? And the the number one ruck English

 

[Carbine Chaos]

I'd only take Sweet if he came basically for free.

 

[Dark Sharks]

I'm actually low key excited about SPS coming over now.

Not sure how the hell that happened.

That’s why we should go young mids early, mature body later (Bailey Rogers / Greg Clarke) who can fill a role immediately why still having the future covered.

 

[Obeanie1]

Why? Because English isnt a very good ruck.

This is so

Me too, bloody highlight videos.

I haven't been this excited about an underperforming Carlton first round pick since Kane Lucas. And I'm pretty sure that guy won a Brownlow. Skies the limit!

 

[bUCKET__]

I will not be able to enjoy SPS's brownlow win if we give anything more than a third rounder for him.

Anyone else quietly hoping that, for whatever reason, Brander ends up an Eagle again next year or am I the only one?

 

[Carbine Chaos]

I feel the same, mainly because I think there's a footballer in there worth a hell of a lot more than we'll get on the trade table for him.

 

[BartBart]

Not sure where this fits but given it relates to Rotham. I’m posting here.

Posted in The West - apparently betting agencies in the firing line coz Petrucelle (sp) was cut off.

Delist!

All besides Liam Ryan and Brayshaw (inside & outside lanes) ran outside their lanes.

 

[Truckosaurus]

Either he stays with us and people complain or he goes and people complain.

 

[BartBart]

Player comparison/style from limited footage I've seen. (Players we might have a shot at drafting)
*Basically who they remind me of..Some probably miles off

MJ - Mundy (esq)
JVR - Naughton (esq)
Sheldrick - Prestia (esq)
Erasmus - Fyfe (esq) (Moves like him, kicks like him. Hard to find a lot of footage)
Draper - Butters (esq)
Goater - Yeo (esq) - Not a lot of footage to work with here.

Are they all esquires?

 

[THE A5]

Is Clarke a crash and bash style of inside mid or is he like a redden like inside mid that that has split contested/uncontested possession rate? Personally don’t mind a a pure inside mid that allows us to use Yeo to use his legs speed, kicking and marking power on the outside more often.

Not me no

yep I`d take Erasmus before Johnson ..

Would love this dilemna at our pick . How long we got ? 2 minutes to decide .

 

[Royals]

if a player signs a 4 year deal for 2 million @500K per year.
and it's decided to frontload first 2 years @750k and last 2 @250k.
if player askes to be traded after 2 years does he have to give club back 500k?

 

[ArdentEagle]

Are they all esquires?

Hopefully the one we pick ends up being the next King. I suppose that'd mean picking up a tall though

 

[pride of the West]

Didn’t miss much or racially attack anyone - pretty good day at the office for Rendell.

Randell being the guy who hangs his hat on drafting Patty D at the crows one great player in 30 years well done
