with pick 39 at the 2019 AFL Draft, they secured a youngster with an insatiable appetite for the contest. Warner attacks the ball and opponents with aggression and is relishing calling midfield bulls Josh Kennedy and Luke Parker

if you look at it more positively, we could probably get a beyond gun player for what we would have to pay chad anyway

yeah theyre probably not chad but if we spent that $$$ on someone that was 80% chad then its really only -20% output from a single player

not the end of the world

Realistically what gun is going to come , we havnt signed anyone of not for 11 years.

 

[McRobie]

Looking at our trade history of notable (open to interpretation) names:

Baker-14
Brockman- 44, 63
Kelly, 57, Cats F3 for 14,24,37, F1
Jetta-swap for Sinclair
Redden-17
Yeo-28
Wellingham-17

Sure some worked out better than others and some were flops but at the time of trade I don’t think anyone would argue we underpaid for any of those players.

Two well run clubs that have always traded in good faith with each other, hid picks for each other etc. There’s also plenty of alumni at both clubs Cox, Pyke, Jack etc.

Obviously it’s never ideal to lose such a high quality player IF he requested a trade, but I don’t see a situation where you’re inadequately compensated.

We think Liam Baker is worth pick 14 FFS.

Yeah it’s a fair summation.

Likely a top 3-5 pick this year and it's one of the better drafts to get a prime pick and maybe a first another year. Look will they be Chad probably not but people are worrying about this way too much, we will be fine. If it comes to it, Sheldrick more in the middle, Cleary ready to genuinely play mid, etc. That is just from within not even counting the bloke we draft at pick 5 (on a low end no way WCE go better than that)

 

[Tedeski]

Im sorry i cant be more positive for you mate

Our last memory of a contest is disgraceful. No need to apologise to anyone on the negative thoughts this club have gifted us.

 

[LukeParkerno1]

He will sign

End of February

2 years imo, and it makes sense been saying it for 6 monyths. Plays in our window then leaves when WCE are in theirs. Players don't want to play in losing sides

 

[WillHayward]

My guess is hes gone.
He will say to the club - Eagles or Freo - I dont care - just get the best trade you can.

 

[Callipygian]

I really like this portrait of Chad. I think it shows a multi-dimensional persona with some vulnerability that he rarely displays.

This portrait of JPK shows an extra dimension.
This is who we really miss.
The rest of the players on our list who dropped two chances can all chase their money for all I care.
Not up to any team greatness Josh achieved other than individual accolades.

I wish I could love this ten thousand times.

Though I must add Ted, my beloved Joey was part of the 2014 debacle

 

[RUNVS]

**** picks , don't need more kids

I think we do. We have not had a great few drafts.
