West Coast Eagles thread

Can't wait for this season to start. New Perth stadium looks great and the competitiveness of the season should be good across the board (except Nth Melb who did nothing in offseason to improve their team)
My team (Lions) finally have shown some signs of being on a build in the right direction. We finished bottom last season, but still fought out most games and showed good signs. Letting Schache go hurt a bit, but he showed no willingness to put in the hard yards and if he doesn't want to be there - see ya later. In saying that, if he can get his head right, I think he has the playing ability to be a very good player for the Bulldogs. Rayner has already signed on for another 2 years which will silence any questions of his commitment to stay and McCluggage has also resigned.

Ok that's interesting so a Midfielder hey?...how do you think he'll go?

I've seen his U18 videos on youtube, reminds me of Patrick Dangerfield.
He should be a gun.

Ok yeah and I looked at his Height too...quite tall could easily switch between Midfield and Forward...

“The most complete midfielder in the pool"

Yeah, he does look the goods. The draft pool this year was pretty even across the top 6+ picks, with Rayner not being a consensus Number 1 pick. I'm happy we got him their, as I think he suits what we need, but there will be plenty from this draft who will be solid.

Nth are in an interesting situation, where they have sort of looked at going to a full rebuild, without actually doing it 100%. Most of there aged players are now gone, so should be a fair few opportunities for the young guys. Thought they may have traded Goldstein, but maybe there wasn't the return for him they wanted. I hope they develop quickly, as I've always liked the Roos, but from the outside there does not appear to be a lot of great young players coming through

That's a really Good signing for North...

Never know with draft orders.
Dusty #3 and look at him.
Same with Dangerfield and Fyfe, they were not high picks.
And remember Tambling, Trengove, Watts.

SUPER BOWL!!
