Pennant St Dee

On what I seen he's probably better than Kossie. But 4 years yes a lot can happen

Not one for another 4 years but Subiaco Development Squad have got an absolute gun coming through. Malachi Champion, indigenous boy from Kalgoorlie small HFF, with pace, elite by foot, awareness, poise in traffic and fantastic decision maker. Watched him in training sessions and 2 games for the development squad last week and some of the things he did made a few keen track watchers stand up. Subiaco's talent manager had a grin like a Chesire cat. Champion has played vountry footy but is about to start at Aquinas College down in Perth next year definitely one to watch

West Coasts midfield improved by moving Priddis and Mitchell in the same season they played Yeo more through the middle and were much quicker

Eagles for mine OD are the most hated. Not a fan of the manufactured franchises in GWS and GC either

Chin up sunshine, oldest trick in the agents book. Oliver is going nowhere but you keep believing

It's one thing nuffies on BF reporting it, but posters here regurgitating BF rumours puts them in the same basket

The Cripps rumour is crap and has been (as others have said) Chinese whispers gone mad. The same happens every year and yet every year most of you go into meltdown

I'd want something else in return a 2nd rounder for our 3rd

That's more to do with Ken Judge getting games into the next group over 2 years. 2002 Woosha walks into a developing midfield, which was just topped up with Judd. The list wasn't great when Malthouse left

Would love Zac Merrett in our midfield just can't see the Bombers doing it. Although you've got to give something good to get something good back. They are desperate for a big bodied mid. If I'm dealing with Freo the player I want before he hits the elite levels I think he can is Adam Cerra. Hayden Young is another in some kind of deal, his ball use and decision making is very good

I'm telling you from someone at Freo he wasn't close.

don't think so, wasn't he talked up strongly for Adelaide position last season.

Sorry he wasn't close to getting the Freo job. Longmuir, Carr and Solomon were the 3 in the running. I don't actually mind Jade as a coach

Well said Old Dee, hopefully the Covid crisis has given us all a reality check on what is important in life. It aint money or material possessions that's for sure

Freo will be hoping their latest Rising star winner ends up being a Paul Haselby and not a Rhys Palmer

How much stuff is going to get thrown around between now and trade time Daz

I'll put my hand up to getting this one wrong Mcqueen. Never thought he'd be able to totally commit to fulltime footy. Was many issues when he was at Subi, but it's a big credit to him the player he's become and a big tick to Troy Ugle who has put some strong cultural things in place at West Coast

6. Trac 5. Salem 4.Gawn 3.Clarrie 2.Hunt 1. Brown

Apparently must reach 9 wins, goes along the same source of the players sooking it up in Cairns

So they are predicting we haven't improved. I'll leave it there I understand footy and football clubs. You just continue pedalling out rumours of unrest etc and big noting yourself

And as I said it's not based on the 2020 season So again don't use it as a basis to say we haven't improved in 2020

You didn't and couldn't have, because they haven't and won't release their 2020 assessments until the season is over. You again as always were being selective. Only problem was you didn't get your years correct

So let's get this correct, Champion Data beses list ratings on the previous season. So the drop down in your view is because the list hasn't improved, because we've gone from rated 1st(based on 2018 stats) to 9th (based on 2019 stats) However the improved ladder position in 2020 is nothing to do with Goodwin but all to do with less injury

How'd coaching geniuses Pagan and Malthouse go with their rebuilds from the bottom up. It aint easy, time catches up with them all
