Sheed -> Kelly JJ -> Brockman Hutch -> Hunt If Duggan takes too long to recover from concussion, then keep JJ for 1 more, play Hunt in his role. If Kelly doesnt get up then Sheed gets 1 more. H.Edwards to stay in the side for the tall Bombers backline Oscar to the WAFL for 1 week Nothing too crazy

I disagree, makes complete sense to me. It was last minute, if we wanted a good WAFL player Trew is as good as any. Im sure if we knew we werent getting Dev a month earlier we may have had the chance to find another depth inside mid. Its really not that complex It could easily be argued an...

O'Donnell too who is a young KPD. Maybe the Dogs know hes gone and are still trying to win games? Could be just Bevo things too. They kept Sanders in the VFL for a few weeks for seemingly no reason earlier this year, might just be Bevo

We had huge question marks over half of our inside mids, the only mid not in their first 2 years on the list and not coming off an injury is Kelly. Makes complete sense to keep a depth inside mid. That spot was not meant to be Trew, it was meant to be Dev Rob. Trew was signed last minute when...

If you look at our inside mids, it makes sense to keep some depth on the list rather than just throwing a rookie spot at some random. Yeo has groin issues, Culley acl, Sheed foot issues, Reid we didnt expect to be this good, etc. Only mids we could rely on as somewhat knowns with low chance of...

Does it need to be fair? We are here to build a premiership winning list, Trew will not be part of it, and him being in the side would only get in the way of Reid and Ginbey from getting exposure

Yeo and Culley seem to have fared better than expected off injuries. Reid has come on significantly better than expected holding down one of the main midfield spots. Ginbey and Kelly are in there too. Sheed played as well as or better than trew in the WAFL, and he can play something other than...

I still don't know why people are melting over Trew not getting games over gaff or Sheed. Trew is an inside player, Sheed and Gaff can play outside roles. We have plenty of inside mids better than Trew. Trew is depth only, we are better off with Trew in an emergency than some 18 year old with...

Sheed needs to go on an outside player if theyre going to persist with this, hes not big enough to bother the bigger inside mids enough. The guys that tag/annoy inside mids are guys like Connor Nash, Blicavs, Dunkley, etc. Theyre all huge compared to Sheed. Id rather Hall came in and tagged if...

I dont think Sheed needs a huge tank to go with Sheezel, just stand in his vicinity so he cant get the uncontested marks. Sheezel isnt a power runner like Daicos, hes mostly an elite kick that North try to use a lot. Tbh id rather Culley or Ginbey do a defensive sort of role(not a tag) on LDU...

You wouldnt want Harley, he doesnt know how to tackle properly without getting suspended and cant run out games as a full time mid without getting a bit of cramp late. Wouldnt even be close to a fair trade for Baker We have a few others you might be interested in however: Andrew Gaff the...

Sheed to either tag LDU or follow Sheezel around so he cant get the little marks he always gets, tagger is more useful the worse our midfield is. When there are obvious tag targets definitely dont mind Sheed in the team as long as he is doing a job on someone

Or Geordie Payne maybe

He cant have been too bad, he was sitting next to Dowling in the debut announcement vid wasnt he

Its not that we dont want Williams, more than happy to keep him. We have way too many KPFs, and a bunch who can chop out rucking too. Bailey is clearly our first choice at the ruck/fwd, but we have other younger players who could do the role well enough, who wouldnt get games otherwise. Bailey...

He might, he probably doesnt though. He will need to average at least 100 from now on, remains to be seen if he can do that without the cheap rubbish in the backline when Mckercher comes back. Simpkin back in this week for Lazarro too might push Sheezel forward a bit more

Saved me from undoubtedly trading in Strachan next week too

lmao, surely theres nothing wrong with doing that? Just the west doing its thing

Even if they didnt openly tell Trew, being re-signed so late after the trade with Deven fell through is a pretty clear indication. His options would have been stay on the rookie list with a slight chance and get a paycheck, or go back to WAFL full time

Idk why people are surprised we kept Trew on the list while not playing him, we have almost no inside mid depth. Our inside mids include Kelly, Yeo(cooked groin), Culley(coming off an ACL), Sheed(Lol), and a bunch of 1st and 2nd year players. If we lost a couple of those older guys we are forced...

Martin has a bye next week, this is a very easy bye week. Why would that stop you? I disagree, saving 100k on Sheezel was worth just as much if not more than downgrading to a rookie who we could have 0 confidence in.

Trading out Sheezel after we first saw the role change was the correct move. We are starting to see something similar combined with a hard matchup for Martin

It was a good move though Hes down over 100k from when he shouldve been traded out, and still has a high BE. Role still highly questionable. Couldve downgraded Sheezel to a defender around 850k then upgraded Matt Roberts with over 800k to throw around. Most people waited 1 week too long to...

Trading out Sheezel a few weeks ago mightve been seen as luxury but was the correct move

Anybody considered trading Nic Martin out? Very hard matchup for distributors/half backs/wingers this week against Carlton and seems to have a slightly less fantasy friendly role since Ridley has come back. He has a high BE at 127, I think he goes sub 100 this week into his bye. Decent chance...

Jordon has gone to the half back distributors and smaller bodied mids, like Whitfield, Walsh, etc. Miers doesnt fit the MO. He will go to Holmes or Stewart for sure

Hutchy might be at the airport tomorrow at least... to pick up his parents

Briggs overtook Flynn by playing like an AA ruckman

Well he didnt mention Oscar Allen who is close to if not our best player when fit, an it wouldnt take too much for guys like Hewett or Ginbey to shoot up the ranks next year. TB, Duggan and Kelly are not that old, theyre no more likely to fall off a cliff as Baker is

Last year Flynn wasnt injured, the 2 years before that he played 14/15 games per year. Not an amazing run but not too that awful tbh. His lack of games in 8 seasons is mostly due to being behind better rucks. His first 6 seasons were stuck behind Mumford, then 2022 was spent fighting it out...
