Don't get me wrong getting Yeo would be good for depth, the thing your forgetting is 2013 wasn't the end of the West Coast football club. Our list over 2 years has grown and if you blanked out this season its a way better list than Freo's as we were being touted as flag favorites back in the preseason. Yes it derailed with injuries and yes when we did get our players back the gameplan seemed to be based around the old forward flood, how ever we have better forwards in Kennedy-Darling-LeCras, better backs with Glass-Mckenzie-Hurn, better ruck combo with Cox-Naitanui its just our midfield group which unfortunately needs correcting and with a fit Wellingham in there we are looking very good indeed.



2 things I will say....

1. I cant deny Cox and the Fijian Bloke is a good ruckman. My only concern is who will partner up with Nic Nat when Cox Retires? The reason I said that is Because Sandilands has been shot with injury in the last 3 years. Which is why Zac Clarke, Jono Griffin and Jack Hannath are on our list.

2. As for Wellingham, He is a handy player and West coast would look more better with him in the squad than without him.

As for Yeo, I hope freo get him... I would want him now since Mitchie has left.

Lycett is our Cox replacement, he is well ahead of Cox at the same time in their careers and plays with a similar style (we also have Sinclair on the list who performed well when called upon).

They are turning on their own over in Brissy land with their EGM coming up
 
Took this
Yeo, 19, is likely to be swapped to West Coast for a second round draft pick.

He is understood to have already been offered a handsome three-year deal with the Eagles.

Wow really? Sounds like a bit of sour grapes to me.

Yeah everyone just seemed pissed which as expected. Rockliff should not have made the tweet. Especially as Longer is still a fair chance to stay(nominated the hawks as his preferred club but they got McEvoy). Things could be a bit awkward between those guys if he does indeed stay. Should have at least waited until the trades had been finalised.
 
The Yeo deal will happen , Freo are just playing the game, typical arseholes to lift his price.
Brissy are shopping him round , but that's to spook us .
Don't loose your cool Vozzo, he only wants to come to West coast so play your cards right.

If we can get away with keeping our second rounder it will be the trade of the year :)

What did Rockliff actually say?
 
What did Rockliff actually say?

Someone about young players who have played only a handful of games being able to nominate a club or something along those lines.

Then every way commenting on it and it just got blown out of proportion. Rockliff is a future captain but he shouldn't be commenting stuff like that, at least until the have actually been officially traded. Even more so when one of two of them could very well end up staying at the club.
 
Am I the only one who won't be devo if we hand over our 2nd pick which will now be pushing closer to pick 30?

If we do the deal with the Pies for pick 27 and pick 10, then I wouldn't hate on giving up 27. However, not too interested in giving up 24 and then not having any pick to 40/41 from what I understand of this draft (flat top 20/25, but drops off fast after that).
