A Day at the Races
Yes and will be kept to 1400m-1600m races. Top shelf WFA races over 2000m are too much for him.

Trading pick 6
It is not the justification, as no one would take a dud in the hope you could swap him. Curtin was suggested to be as good as Reid by some pundits. Itâs more an insurance bonus if homesickness leads him to want to return to WA. If he is available at our pick I would think we probably take him and swapping him later with Reid would not enter into the drafting discussion.

Trading pick 6
Why? You get a player this year, who could get you Reid in a couple of years and even if not, is the type of player we need and you have him now. WC could rise a few spots and you donât know who is where next year and you are a year behind in development of a player. Not for me.

Harley Reid
Given that article that WC will keep 1, makes me think they are certain to trade it. IMO, the key is whether WC believe Curtin will be there at our pick 6. The Hawks and North possibly, hold the key. If WC believe they wonât take Curtin, I believe we will get 1, if we are prepared to sell the farm. TBH, I would keep 6 and 11 and take Curtin and whoever we rate at 11.

Exit interviews 2023
For those who think contracts mean you canât get delisted, James Stewart, Lachie OâBrien and Jake Pasini have all been delisted, with a year to go on their contracts. Yes they will be paid out in full, but are gone from their club. Whatâs worse in Stewartâs case at the Bombers, is that he lost his father Craig Stewart this year, in very sad circumstances. Bombers showing their true culture and I hope his team mates are furious and that the Bombers bomb again. Wonder if Michael Warner or Robbo will question the Bombersâ culture. Not holding my breath.

Trading pick 6

Harrison Petty
So Jon Ralph knows for certain, according to his article, that we held Petty âagainst his willâ and â he is desperate to go home to Adelaideâ. Well I think if that was true, Petty would have made more of a song and dance of it, causing us to give it greater attention and secondly Adelaide us not his home, though a bit closer to it. IMO, if Petty was truly desperate to go, we would have explored the options. Therefore, in summary, I disagree with the article. We will obviously try and extend Pettyâs contract and that will be interesting, to see if it happens.

The Pick 1 Thread
Always is. It appears the Roos wonât give up 2 & 3 for 1 and may have privately moved on and will use their multiple first round picks to help their rebuild. Hawks havenât got enough to do the deal. We are an option for WC, but it all depends on Curtin getting to 6. This deal is looking unlikely. I am now wondering if WC blinks and tells the Roos they will take 2 and a few later first rounders, just to try and maximise 1 and help their rebuild, which is well behind the Roosâ. I think WC needs more for 1 than one Victorian likely star, but with a highly possible go home factor. I am not convinced that is the maximum for the pick and WC needs the maximum.
