Darling has had 8, less than both Amiss and Treacy.

[sumavich]

Amiss really should have 20 with the bullshit that has been levelled at him

 

[Bigger]

Isn't it nice to see the Weavils all up and about? Almost like they're relevant.

comes to mind. But once oppositions start taking note and putting together strategies to negate their influence they can drop off. Umpires also begin to take note of those who play for frees like Jack Ginnivan. Anyway, we were talking about Harley Reid right? I don't know why those two other players came to mind.

 

[Paracleet]

Bursting to an opposition board to argue they should retract their statements that Walters stages for kicks is exactly the sane sensible reasonable hill I would die on. Go to it Duckergod.

 

[ilikepotatoes]

I couldn't understand how Hipwood got done for a dangerous tackle but King didn't.

Yet how the hell did Harrison Jones get a game for a perfect tackle incorrectly not called holding the ball and King gets nothing?

 

[Ge3ks]

That I do agree with. That dude is getting $2m offers from Victoria.

Eagles need Yeo money to pay Reid.

Adelaide Crows offer almost $3 million three-year deal in bidding war for West Coast veteran Elliot Yeo​

Mon, 20 May 2024 4:44
Out-of-contract Waalitj Marawar (West Coast) star Elliot Yeo is set to become the centre of a bidding war, with multiple AFL clubs hunting his signature.
Adelaide have been the most aggressive in pursuit of the two-time All-Australian, tabling an offer believed to be around $2.7 million spread over three years — front-ended with a massive $1.3 million-dollar first season.
Discussions with the Eagles on a new deal have failed to progress, with the offers believed to be for just two years and far less money than the opposition clubs are offering.

Eagles star offered monster deal by rivals as clubs circle

Maybe, Reid could always go on the MinRes payroll, off balance sheet of course

MinRes have a debt to equity ratio of like 2 to 1 or something. Hardly fiduciary responsibility that idea! It's one thing as a private company vanity paying footy players outside the cap. It's quite another to as a PLC where just one suspicious Freo supporting auditor might bring you down.

Waterman has 4 frees for the season.

Waterman Away games: Frees For: 1 Frees Against: 2 vs Home games: FF: 3 vs FA: 1 ... your rebuttal is actually further evidence supporting my claim.

And 5 Contested Marks Away vs 18 at Perth Stadium.

 

[Paracleet]

I am actually surprised how good Waterman's contested marking has been in one on one tussles on the goaline when he is behind. Not a situation the leagues fullbacks are going stand for very long I'd have thought.

 

[Madas]

Eagles will be playing finals next year..as long as Mcfat stays fit.

This is clearly Waterman’s season to savour. I would imagine it’ll be the same usual bs next year. History shows even ave Fwds can produce a marvellous season then go missing.

Yeh I reckon he’s peaking and when Allen come back it will take a while to gel if ever

 

[Madas]

They will still be hitting the draft hard, too, but my point was that they have ways to finagle their salary cap. Seems they will be able to rebuild and top up at the same time.

Finagle

1. obtain by dishonest or devious means.
   "Ted attended all the football games he could finagle tickets for"
   • act in a dishonest or devious manner.
     "they wrangled and finagled over the fine points"

 

[Joose]

Quite happy to see the Eagles win a few.

a. Stops all this nonsense about a priority draft pick
b. Takes the media spotlight off Freo. We do best when flying under the radar I reckon.

Apart from that I am not too fussed about them TBH. Just another club.

 

[FreoGirl]

Waterman has 4 frees for the season.

can I please buy your grand final package?

 

[Van_Dyke]

Snuffaluphagus this is your time to shine.

'We're up against it': Hardwick hits back at Vic clubs' travel claims

Gold Coast coach Damien Hardwick has joined his WA counterparts on the toll taken by constant travel

www.afl.com.au

Interesting Hardwick is bemoaning the scenario now, he wasn't complaining in 2019 when Richmond through the latter stages of the AFL season thru the finals played the MCG about 10 times in a row. Welcome to our world sunshine.

Like I said days earlier, Hollywood Magpies haven't travelled off the MCG since Round 4 (including a 'bye' because of dumb-bolt Opening Round, Round 0....whatever). The equalisation thing is busted, complete myth.......

It is because Victorian people need to get out of the bubble before they realise just how bad it is.

I like how he stood up for WA clubs, really I do.

But he's pretending that the Northern teams don't get their arses wiped by the AFL which I don't like

Just on a Reid sidenote, next time someone goes in to tackle him, they're ready for the fend off (or knee buckle) and instead punch him forcefully in his armpit. Would hurt.
