If this rumour turns out to be true, and I'm skeptical about it at the moment, it seems to be an odd move from an Eagles perspective.  He might have had an inconsistent season, but Kennedy is approaching 30 and they don't have a great deal else in terms of key forwards coming through the ranks.

Obviously this rumour would also make some Dees fans nervous, as the Eagles being willing to entertain trade offers for Darling might suggest they believe they are in the box seat to lure Hogan west.

So am I, but after Franklin and Tom Boyd nothing would surprise me any more, I would forget Lamb and make a play for Darling if rumours are correct

Rory Lobb is getting talked about a lot.

Aaron Black from North on the move?

Mason Shaw had a good year in the WAFL,

There could be a few other options that they may also be looking at and after Darling's last two finals, I'm not surprised they're looking to move him on.

All fair points there AAC.  I hadn't put a great deal of thought into it, and obviously missed a number of players that they could also pursue that aren't named 'Hogan'.

I'd certainly take a look at him, but I'm not sure if we could come up with a trade that the Eagles would find satisfactory.

Er....Hogan if he decides to go.....for Darling and Lamb and a pick? or whatever is a good deal for us

Well of course, if Hogan decided to go, then I'd certainly look at Darling and their first round pick.  I'd even try and see if we could squeeze someone better than Lamb out of them to go with the deal as well.

Lots of water to go under the bridge yet and, as AAC pointed out, there are plenty of KPP's that may want to head home to Perth during this off season.

WC have pick 12. So it would be Hogan for pick 12 + Darling and Lamb.

I still think thats unders for Hogan. Call me stubbon but id have McGovern instead of Darling.

I'd have McGovern, Darling, Kennedy, Gaff, Shuey et al.........my personal favourite would be to see Luke Parker, after he picks up his Premiership medal next weekend, that he fancies a change and would like a trade to Melbourne........and then I wake up unfortunately

Surely Rory Lobb wouldn't entertain leaving the Giants after missing out on a GF berth by a solitary goal?

He's had a great year there.

Definitely...

It might also be why the Eagles would move Darling. McGovern is a natural at CHF...

I thought Kennedy's (WCE) performance last  night was very creditable. Never saw him not finish his beer after each time they went to them.

This is the problem I have with managers these days, starting to go the way of European soccer, the player might not consider it but a manager might have his ear bent and he only sees the dollar signs, and convinces the player,  no manager becomes a manager for altruistic reasons

Duggan , McGovern and Pick 12 for Hogan. No less

Duggan is average and doesn't add much at all to that deal for me. Would still rather we hold onto Hoges.

McGovern WILL NOT BE LEAVING WCE.

THIS IS NOT THE [censored] HOGAN thread.

What type of player is Lamb?

His decision making is quite woolly.

He's always bleating to the umps.

And there are those persistent rumours about his consumption of grass.

Apparently he responds very well to a roasting.

Cam Macarthy has 72% goal kicking accuracy in his 2015 season (36g14b). I'd definitely make a play for him if I were WCE.

    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
