Pennant St Dee

Yet they have the last 3 years

You can’t win, those calling for Oliver to be there to make a statement are the same who say words and statements in pre season means little, it’s all about peering on game day and in particular at the pointy end of the season

You’ll find that would be very much tongue in cheek, well at least from Scotty Cummings. Our boys played together when the family moved back to Perth in 2022 and they speak fondly of Melbourne. They loved their time there and love getting back over there.

Welcome aboard Caleb, here’s to a long and fruitful career

Welcome aboard Koltyn, looking forward to watching you in the red and blue

Yep agree he’s going to be a gun and whilst I don’t think they’re as bad as many think I’m also aware their potential to move up the ladder slightly next season is based on getting good seasons out of McGovern, Yeo, Darling, Barrass and Allen. 3 of those have one good season left in them. I really rate Hewitt and Ginbey is a really good culture maker with Long showing snippets of talent, but they really need to increase the amount of good quality young players coming through

Curtin did his hammy in the Colts GF and played out the game, but he ain’t one of us so we welcome Caleb and Koltyn

Ffs it’s been widely reported he wanted to be with family and there was logistical issues with family members travelling over from regional WA. We’re in the beginning of our harvest in WA which also would have played a part, but let’s let MFCSS override several legitimate reasons

They get Scott Welch’s boy via FS next season. Looks fairly handy so wonder will they look at packaging some first rounders next year for a top pick before Welsh gets nominated or to target a ready made player like Petty

I suspect Clarko’s pitch is for an Eagles pick swap

Not this close to the draft, Twomey is usually pretty accurate with his top 10

As per Stiff Arms reply 8hrs

My thoughts exactly re Petty

You need to go via Perth to get to Esperance

My thoughts are we’d have to get their F2 back. For this deal to happen you’d imagine Hawks have decided on Curtin over Watson and it will happen on the night if North take Duursma after Mckercher

It says he flew to Perth, before catching a light plane to Esperance

I don’t need to watch Tomlinson, I know plenty about Curtin, spent a lot of time working with him so I’ll back that.

Nigel Satyerley and property development will be their retention strategy as it was for Judd and Simpson

Raw as a forward played there before the national championship this year in tandem with SVR. Could play there but not something he’s familiar with prior to this year

Standard is okay, but salary cap kills it a little much bigger dollars in country footy Tim Kelly probably the last mature recruit to really make an impact. Jack Buller taken in this year’s mid season draft played 1 game with Sydney before getting injured

They will probably have Elijah Scoble Kaleb Dempster-Park and Jake Watson from their Colts side also coming into contention for the senior side

There’s already Levi Ashcroft and one the Camporeale boys who will compromise the top end of next years draft

Not quite sure what you’re talking about with regard to Tholstrup making Curtin look second rate. I was at this game and Subi in general made Claremont look second rate during this game and it was only accurate kicking by Claremont in the 3rd which let them stay close. They were smashed in the middle by the Hickmott boys and took the ball forward at will. Curtin played on Luker Kentfield that day and Tholstrup played mostly as a forward with occasional time on the ball. I rate them both but they were hardly matched up against each other during this game. There’s a big difference between being involved in a contest and having to move off a player to close down a free hit up opponent

They’ve recruited quite well this off season DD, my best mate is a long suffering Perth fan always spend a few games during the season with him sharing a few frothies in the Pig Pen

Not sure Tapscott came in off a full season at senior level
