Pennant St Dee

Thank you Adam for your service and all the best on and off field in the future

He does but an average defender can nullify a great forward when delivery is regularly on top of his head

I see Bo as a flight risk so I would pass on him

It’s all about the ball movement, as Chaser said Carey at his peak would struggle in our F50

This is my thoughts too along with no key forwards being available. Jeffo has improved through the season although my basis on that is from minimal viewing of the VFL from afar and some track watchers who talk sense. Kentfield is one I back based on coaching him and against him. I know his drive and desire and believe given a clean run at it he will do whatever it takes to seize the opportunity. Has a lot of natural hardness in him. Beyond all of the above speed on the ball from D50 turnover and quicker ball movement overall will allow for greater separation and more dangerous F50 entries

That’s a kiss of death within itself

Can’t see Draper getting past the Crows

I loved him last season wasn’t a good championship for him this year, but there can be many factors for that, which aren’t long term concerns

He’s an ultimate professional in preparation and discipline to get the best out of himself, in a similar fashion to Woey Snr and the Pendlebury types. Comes from good stock Grandfather George Hampson is a legend in WAFL and uncle Damian was drafted by Carlton in the 90s

I have no idea but he’s rising and due diligence being done by a few clubs and several keen. We have interviewed him recently

Wouldn’t be so certain on that, a lot of interest in the last few weeks with Hamish Davis from a range of clubs, I consider him to be a bit of a bolter who may continue on the upward trend given the amount of attention attracted and follow up interviews with him, clubs are having

It’s been in meltdown all morning as news broke overnight about the trade.

Hugh Boxshall, big bodied inside mid won the 2km time trial at the WA Combine with a 6.08, will attract some interest with a late/rookie pick

We have been watching him through the year, he has plenty of upside as he’s fairly new to KPD, 2023 got moved there at WAFL was previously played in Ruck by especially at PSA level with Christchurch. WAFL Colts grand final from this year is worth a watch for his 1v1 work. Younger brother Elijah also a very good KPD who will likely play as an underager in next years national championship

Yes we interviewed him earlier in the year and not sure if we did again during the combine. Angove didn’t have as good a season this year as his underage year. Injured in preseason which caused some interruption. He has very good lateral movement, acceleration, vision and can impact the scoreboard.

And that was also a poor decision, probably why De Goey has also failed to reach his potential. And don’t think for a second the decision may yet come back to bite us.

Yet had we made him continue to do a block of pre season training and made a statement after the Lorne incident with a multiple game ban as other clubs did with Stevie J, Heath Shaw and Michael Walters in the past we may well have 1. Got his fitness at a level which would have lasted for the remainder of the season 2. Set a standard and message to the playing group that poor behaviour would not be tolerated 3. Made a decision which didn’t cause division within the playing group over preferential treatment 4. Long term view but we may not be in the current situation had we chosen action as opposed to talking tough

That is the biggest issue and enough for someone to be moved on Conditions not being put in place on the contract and the length

You nailed it pretty much

They have Charlie Banfield next year as FS and likely younger brother Harper in 26. They will also be across Harley Reid and whether he chooses to commit further

I think he might, I’d have money on them taking Draper at 3

I don’t see a Fyfe in Allan, Davis’s end of season form was better in the seniors. If they don’t think Allan is worth 3 they won’t take him, just like they didn’t take Curtin early last season despite wanting him

I’d still want a good pick to go with it.

I’m hearing West Coast very keen on Bo Allan, that being the case I would anticipate a pick swap somewhere as Bo definitely isn’t pick 3

Geelong don’t have the collateral to obtain Oliver, so they can like all they want and be in his ear as much as they like
