I want to say East Perth.

I'd like to say the Beagles. Doesn't make it right, but still, nice to say.

Souths.

We haven’t sent many players there.

Wasn't there briefly a points or bidding system for interstate draftees? I can't think how else we'd send a Victorian to South Freo post-1995.

Most of the time they had a mini draft for Eagles and Dockers interstate recruits. It was usually only open to WAFL sides that missed finals, I think.

The only other player I can think of that went to Souths was David Hynes and that was 1991.

Hadn't he played for Souths previously?

EDIT - nope, he hadn't.

Next thing you know, some troll will suggest Kane Cornes doesn't know what he's talking about. Where does it end?

Woodcock not endearing himself to Simmo or the club.

He's not wrong though

Yes.

 

[Miguel Sanchez]

No.

We’ve gotten on average 18 months older and 26 games more experienced than last week’s team.

Doesn’t exactly scream rebuilding team.

 

[UseR2006]

Our kids have also carried the bulk of the work this year so far so giving them a chop out probably isn't the worst thing for them.
Woodcock definitely living up to his last name.

 

[Keys]

So according to stickdick we’ve kept Gaff (as sub) and dropped O’Neill, Maric and Bazzo

Maric is a forward and Bazzo is a defender so Gaff isn’t keeping either of those two out of the side

Which leaves O’Neil who has barely played a decent game all year and could do with a run in the guts for the Beagles

 

[southcoast]

Big day of fixtures today. You could call it Super Sunday.

16 v 17 to start then 14 v 18.

We got the pineapple again.

Was he that bad?

Was at the game, kicking was generally poor. Can never question his commitment, but turning it over so often coming off the half back line is not ideal.

Will jump on a landmine for you but he's a dreadful kick.

Some of the footage shown was damning.
I'm starting to wonder if he's worth persevering with TBH.

Was in our top ten for disposal and kicking efficiency
