2nds Peel Thunder 2023 Season

[Docker82]

Generally but it has happened before

and KPD's are the massive buy in the comp right now

Worst case scenario we have to take him with our first pick in the rookie draft. Can’t see teams below us drafting a 30 year old.

North with McKay and Logue out as a stopgap maybe, you'd hope not though

I did kinda forget how low we finished this year tho lol

 

[nurries]

Suck shit $ubi

 

[freo_leo29]

We will know if they want him during the free agency window well before the trade period even finishes.

Offer the contract prior to delisting, sign the deal and delist and rookie - done.

Doesn't sign it then he's probably gone already

Yeah he can go wherever he wants anyway but if he wanted to stay he could have been poached against his will

but yeah it looks unlikely tbh

 

[freo_leo29]

Great season Peel, good to send off Colyer and Wilson with a GF, unfortunately we will have to leave it at that though, its about time the Cup returns to East Freo

I haven't ever seen a player drafted interstate in a PSD or rookie draft, only mature age guys, who didn't already agree to terms with the new club.

Just extend him and then move to rookie list

Really wish Erasmus played last two weeks for Peel instead of wasted as a fourth quarter sub.
The experience playing the GF would do him a world of good

Todd Banfield springs to mind

From Lions to Richmond (or vice versa) when he was promised a contract with his club

 

[Tundrawolf]

5 - 0 in finals against $ubi.

John McCarthy is another, but also agreed to terms prior to the selection

Will the Grand Final be played at Fremantle Oval?

Optus, it got locked in as the WAFL sides decided they wanted the GF back to the week before the AFL GF

 

[E Shed]

I think we’d be crazy not to offer Hamling a contract. Main list if necessary. The guy Is a premiership level AFL defender who could play another couple of seasons if his body’s right
I thought our back 7 looked really good with him in this year.

I wouldn’t be surprised if other teams come for him & he deserves a contract. Spent 2 years in the WAFL getting his fitness back and is a total pro.

Wow, that place is gonna feel empty. Reckon they will have to give away free tickets for kids to get more people in.

Projected 30k

Think they're not opening the top? charging $40 bucks a ticket when I checked the other week

I reckon they get a decent throng of the greater Freo area in there. Neither AFL side playing finals, plenty of Freo nerds like me heading to it, should be a decent crowd

There were plenty of purple Freo nerds at Rushton Park today. I even struck up a conversation with a blue & white East Freo fan at half time. He told me he was also an Eagles member . I didn't know that combo was allowed. Confused my brain.

 

[Taylor]

I thought the Eagles fans got a Subi membership as part of their casual supporter package??

Not serious.

 

[Redgum]

Wilson was amazing today, he sure looked really quick and his kicks so penetrating. Kinda wished we just held on to him for depth,he still looks every bit an AFL quality player.

 

[Ge3ks]

Wilson was amazing today

He was. Played on Tholstrup and made him look slow. Not sure what the attraction is with Tholstrup. Looked like a Hobbit from The Shire out there. Are his disposals really good?

Jeez I thought Tholstrup looked really good.
He looked far better than the likes of Nod (who is 3 years older), good decision maker and a good all round game. I can see him going top 20 easily.
Mature body too could play R1 easily next year on the half forward flank

Would rather it there tbh. It’s what the stadium is for.
Fremantle Oval would be packed though.

Looked slow. Wilson just burned him often off half back. But it was gross day for Subiaco players anyway

I guess they will look at his combine results. He’s definitely a footballer anyway he’s got good skills and ball use. Got to remember he’s an 18 yo playing with men out there.

Can confirm not all of us
