OA can play CHF as he is a long accurate kick. Better than Waterman. He’s also very smart. Him to defence is just silly.
Waterman can play FF as he will run the key defender into the ground.
I don’t agree that our defence will be worse than last year.
As Stallon says we will have a much better balanced midfield with Baker, Graham Long and Hewett all coming in.Hopefully sides won’t be able to just waltz out of the middle.
Sure we will miss Barass’s marking but I for one won’t miss his style of play.
Maric adds class to the defence,Bo sounds like he will be first up of the newbies.Ginbey is a monster.
With the new setup Duggan is released to the midfield and I for one won’t miss his disposal out of the backline.His grit is covered.
So Barass and Duggan out and Maric,HEd and Bo in. Win for me.
Just as a curio and with our transition out of defensive kickouts could we play AReid as a wingman? Oooooh don’t start frothing at the mouth.
There is precedence for moving tall player into areas of need.He would certainly give us an outlet.

Young Eagles camp in Pinjarra
The West Coast Eagles young guns strengthen team bonds on their pre-season campwww.westcoasteagles.com.au
All except for Harley (and injury) it seems, pretty disappointing if that’s the case.
I assume this was done pre-Christmas when Harley was on light duties cos if it wasn't then what the f*ck...and even if he was on light duties he still should've gone for the team bonding. Does he hang out with anyone outside the club? Honest to God question.

Would’ve been done before the senior players came back to training on the 25/11
My best guess is the first week the 1st-4th years returned as there was no training session on the Friday (15/11) so I’m presuming it was then
Harley was concussed at training on the 13/11 which would explain why he wasn’t there
Johnston the only other player not in the group photo - not sure when exactly he hurt his elbow but that might be why he wasn’t there either
The email stats
Three months out from the 2025 season, our first to fourth year players took part in a pre-season camp in Pinjarra before they went on Christmas break.
The three-day camp consisted of team bonding exercises while putting their fitness to the test with a range of physical challenges.

This is some good shit. Nothing like some team Bond to bring the younger guys together. Club is essentially in their hands now.
Never, ever ever ever can we be a club that lets blokes knockout a player and not do sh!t about it like we did with Elijah/JDG.
McQualter clearly saw the footage of how nobody reacted to DeGoey cleaning up Hewett and said "**** that, 3 days of team-building boys.".

I think if we wanted, we could use Allen and Flynn as the outlets, leaving Waterman and 1 small forward closer to goal. Get Allen right up the ground.
Waterman would burn whichever KPD hes on running back to goal, hes a good chance to just outmark them anyway.
Basically just try to leave an open forward line
Johnston was in the video lumbering around with a Jerry can looking like his arm was gonna fall off, wonder if that’s what stuffed his elbow

tbh never looks like he's super good mates with any of his team mates, a bit worrying if u ask me
He's close mates with Chesser and usually hangs out with him, which he's said on a number of occasions.
The good news is he is no longer a mummy's boy or home sick. He went to qld during his break.
That has been replaced by being obsessed with yas if you follow his insta.
I mean he booted his own best friend gilbee from his home to live with yas. He doesn't hate wce players he just loves yas

It doesn’t help that oppo lay into him every game and other than Yeo no one does anything to help him out.
Wouldn’t be surprise or blame him if he thinks a lot of his team mates are limp dicks, he’d be right.
Our best bet is to weed out the precious ones and get this new batch to play with some aggression and come on fast if you ask me.

His sister lives in Brisbane supposedly, so makes sense they probably did a family trip up here.
