In this case I think the answer is obvious. We have a list spot squeeze and I doubt we move players across the country for a 6 month spell. The player has to be an obviously better long term prospect than someone on our list (that isn't already getting delisted). It's why I think a WA player is...

Reckon we're far more likely to take no picks than 2. Not a great deal of point anyway since anybody picked is unlikely to play.

Reidy isn't doing anything up forward so he's either a liability up forward or in the ruck. Voss is more likely to contribute than Reidy.

Berry's write-up makes him sound like a Freo type given the defensive pressure. Getting up to Moraes might be a good outcome too.

Marshall would give Reidy and absolute bath. It's definitely not the game to debut a ruck. Roll him out against West Coast or something.

Looks bigger in that photo.

Knobel is obviously massive then.

He's a better kick than Langdon and he's a premiership winger so not concerned. Be great if he kicked like Mundy but at least he has penetration and hits the scoreboard.

I am entirely convinced he is the reason we didn't care that Acres left. The issue was prioritising JOM over him for 2023.

It's all speculation, but I took it as very unlikely this year but there is a reasonable chance of him moving next year.

We won't need 3 if we get him when OOC. The only reason we would need 3 now is because he is in contract. Still, that Gettable didn't sound very promising to me, especially given Cal was just responding to listener questions.

You like children being tortured?

The really frustrating part is that it could happen at any time. They are probably just close enough to the threshold now, but predicting exactly when it happens is impossible. Could be any point between now and the end of next season. I get frustrated because I constantly think we've got it...

I think if West Coast and Baker really are keen, the Eagles find a way without splitting the pick.

I've bolded the part where I think you're stuck. It doesn't matter what you or any else thinks should be the case. The facts are that the demographics have us young still (compounded by how relatively little we get out of our 29+ brigade compared to some other clubs) and we clearly need to add...

Back to back games where its in our own hands. Let's ****ing go!

He needs to just stick to that role he was a top 40 champion data player for. Work everyone else around him.

I'm quite sure they won't have and I suspect we'll be in it until late in the season. My pessimism is mostly draw related. We've probably dropped 1 too many already given who we still have to play and then comparing that against who the Bombers and GC play, it's going to be difficult. Carlton...

There is no point bringing in Ras or Brodie or anyone else to do JoM's role. He's not playing inside mid which is the only position either of those two can play effectively. 100% guaranteed they'd both get hauled over the coals here for playing **** just like JoM does. The role sucks. Brodie...

Walters into the team and Emmett can be sub. Maybe he can impact the scoreboard if he comes on late and is fresh when everyone else is tired. Used to work for Banners. I'd have Sturt in but he seems to be the mystery injury of the weekend and has been terrible as sub anyway.

If both get near us we're cooked. The only side above us that might be flaky is the Bombers. It's not that teams can't make a run, its that we're very obviously not better than any team above us.

Honestly, if Brisbane and the Crows become factors for us, we're miles off it. They are both coming from so far back now.

Once he loses mod status, I want the book thrown at Snuffaluphagus for getting our hopes up about the Pies this year.

I traded Roma to Sweet because of the "injury". What a ****ing calamity.

Well at this point its faith, because there is very little evidence to back up your belief.

We drafted a KPD with our 2nd pick last year. One that looks like he wanted to request a trade on the spot., I have no confidence at all. Trade and draft this year is going to be a crushing disappointment I feel and we'll rue it for half a decade whilst we constantly fall short because of...

I did/do if Hawkins and Cameron are at least 90% of what they were in 2022.

Possibly could have split one of those close games for sure. Personally, as nice as making up the numbers in finals is, having our pick a couple of spots higher might make getting some actual forwards a bit easier so I am ok with it. He's Schultz, he's just not any good at the part where we...

Agree on Simpson, but neither he or Baker are made for Emmett's role. They both seem way more suited to being connectors rather than pressure/crumber players. The 1st rounders need to be a draftee or trade that is an instant upgrade on Emmett else I reckon he's there round 1. He's painful to...

Do you actually believe that if we got Baker, Emmett wouldn't play?
