Should not be a priority, especially with Jack Viney joining us in 2013. We need skillful outside mids who will spread, run and carry.

Hayes, Sewell, Black ... you are dreaming.

I think you'd call that a nightmare

Did anyone see how easily Collingwood won the centre square and the stoppages. (" We need skillful outside mids who will spread, run and carry" WTF)

We need tough footballers, skilled, tacklers and good muscle. Not outside runners. Gysberts and Strauss will provide that when fit/ Nicholson, Bail, Blease are the outside runnders.... of yes and Morton.

Maybe swap Cale Morton for Koby Stevens.

Get on board, we need inside mids ... yes we get Viney but need more. We cannot rely on Nathan Jones all the time.

Gysberts is not an outside runner, he is an inside mid with a footballers mentality (knows how to get the ball) not an athletes. He may not have the body yet but that's what he was recruited for. We need good decision makers and that is one of the big negs on Stevens.

Stevens is an average midfielder who can't get a game. He will not solve any of our problems, and we shouldn't bother going after him unless we get him for nothing eg 3rd round pick. We need classy star midfielders, of which he is neither.

How many times did Jones win the contested ball and either have no help or no runners to handball to? We have Jones,Magner,Beamer and Couch and they all can't play in the same midfield at the same time. We need running options for the inside mids we already have.

My call was to consider trading Cale Morton for Koby Stevens. Vote now?

(ps. again for those with poor eyesight ... did anyone see the stoppages and clearances agst the Pies. Stop the theory, check the facts)

Saw their run and spread, saw them intercept from our poor decisions. So we need someone who is reputed to be slow and a poor decision maker, how does that work?

This is not a Cale vote and I don't want to get into the merits but he is worth a lot more than a straight swap for Stevens.

Think the weagles hate the Mortons

Pretty sure there's a bit of bad blood from when Mitch left (?!)

The Mortons father gave west coast a bake for not treating mitch morton like chris judd, hence why they wanted him out quick smart.

Great idea. West Coast would be mad to reject.

Its a win win - Morton for Stevens. Neither are getting a game, and other more. Mrton would be better in the free space of Subiaco, and Stevens would welcome the warrior style of Neeld.

Posted

Have a look at WAFL R14 Mark of the Day Subiaco v East Fremantle... fyi Koby Stevens.

I have seen him play and he is the type to get into our team. Physically ready. Gets the footy. Good endurance. Clearances. Tackles very well. Not the quickest jet but capable.

    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.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    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.
