Oh Pennant Almighty you suggest these options for having an opinion that differs to yours? Get over yourself man.

Michie went for pick 54 last year, what is so insane about Smith for 53 this year?

Michie was traded from Freo for 54 > big difference!

The difference is Michie can play and was a standout at WAFL level in a very poor side, he was out of contract and wanted to head home for more opportunities. Smith is not leaving WA by choice

Ash Smith can not play and is out of his depth at WAFL level, when he first came over to WA he looked a likely type but his footy has been going backwards since about 2011/12

Seen him play many times for Perth and then this year with East Perth under the Meth Coast alignment, he murders the ball gets a bit of the pill due to his superior AFL fitness but turns it over by poor disposal or by making horrible decisions.

Your opinion does differ from mine and I may be wrong in my assumption but I'm going to hazard a guess that barring TV you would not have seen much of Ash Smith

Obviously he was traded, doesn't change anything in the post.

Michie's not scared of contact nor does he turn it over at will. Smith played a good season, got a contract and hasn't played well since for 2 if not 3 years.

Thanks for that jabberwocky. Goodyear looks the type of player you would never get tyred of watching.

Heard his stats were rubbery.

This list for the most-part is incredibly slow. Smith has pace and uses it, that's what attracted my interest. Along with considerable years in the system retaining his spot at WCE.

Obviously it's very easy to pick faults in a player that's just been delisted. I'm sure you would've also had a lot of negative output on Matty Spangher when he was delisted.

I'm tyred about all this discussion!

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    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.

Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
