I went though our list last night I came up with the following list of players that I would shed in the next few weeks.

Now there are a couple on here that may be unlucky because they are out of contract.

In no particular order

Jetta, Nicholson, Gillies, Tynan, Davis, Sellar and the following retirees in Roden, J Mac and Davey.

Nine in total.

If there was a chance I would trade out any of Jamar, Tappscott, Bail, Blease, Byrnes Pedersen and Strauss.

Unfortunately there is probably only Jamar that would attract interest and then not much in value for the MFC.

What is everyone's opinion.

IMO I wouldn't delist someone like Tynan who is still young and developing, same for Taggert.

Flash, Joel Mac and Rodan have retired.

I would delist/trade Jetta, Gillies, Byrnes, Bail, Sellar if you keep Pedersen, Tapscott, Nicholson, Jamar and Strauss.

I would keep Blease and develop him. I would give Davis another year unless you were offered a trade.

That is 12 players, that is a big turnover on the senior list.

Rookies Magner and Couch are probably also gone.

I seriously doubt it would be 12 Redleg, like you I think that is too many in one hit.

To get rid of 12 you have to find 12 that are better 6 to 8 maybe achievable but I doubt 12.

think Byrnes is contracted for 14 Red

I will pay him out.

lol

think Byrnes is contracted for 14 Red

I think he was suggesting a possible trade bb

But seriously who would be interested?

We have seven I would like to trade but I doubt there would be more than one taker.

Jamar might get a little interest but that is about it.

Byrnes off the list, is a non negotiable for me.

Now for more good News the Mighty Falcons are playing for a spot in the WAFL Grand final on Sunday.

I am hoping for more good wins for the red and blue war machine.

Amen to that TBF

Are you going?

PS The mighty Norwood Redlegs are on top by two games and percentage with one game to go.

Looking good.

I am not sure if I can get there this week end as the wife away at her gold mine so may not head home this week end.

But will watch it on TV if I can.

I remember driving for 24 hours to see them win the 1995 Flag (previous win was 1975) and they were the underdogs. How great is a Grand Final win especial when it takes a few years to achieve!

The Falcons finished second but one win more then the second and four teams.

Claremont has always been our boggy team (Jessie Hogan is from Claremont).

Is it too much to ask for a real coach at the MFC and a Flag in the WAFL all in the same year?

I tend to always support any team that has Blue and Red regardless of the sport.

Then I say "C'mon the CARDIES!"

(until 1981 the West Perth FC was called the Cardinals then changed their name to Falcons)

The venom against us by the other clubs in respect to the PP is just amazing.

Brad Scott could barely control himself.

Eddie said we need to get rid of it and just have an equal competition. You are 100% right Eddie. From now on every team gets 2 friday nights. Pies have to play at Skilled stadium every year. Pies play in Perth twice each year and no more 18 games at the G. Pies play at 4.40 against an interstate side on mother's day.

Yeah Eddie lets make it a fair competition.

He from Collingwood do we care what those guys say?

I have little time for that Club ever since they carried on little spoilt children after a GF loss to the Brisbane Bears and would not let a player attend their Fairest & Best Awards Night because he want to go home to his family.

But the day they beat us by 80 points and then their thugs, I mean Supporters, beat up the father of one of our young players, now that will live in my memory forever.

Class Act Eddie, now go and FO and tell someone who cares what you think, because none of us in MFC do!

Think I will sent a picture of our Premiership Cup to Eddie for an Xmas Present in a few years time.

They are the worst Club Ever and I want Roos to give us a team that will Smash them in every game we play them.

I was so pumped after watching this.

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
