I don’t want to put a dampener on things,but Brandon Parfitt at 26 years of age with over 130 AFL games of AFL experience behind him,almost seems over qualified to be playing WAFL football.The only other player recruited with similar credentials that springs to mind is Andrew Krakouer,and those were the days when we didn’t have these silly extra drafts,so you want Parfitt to play well but not too well as he may be hard to keep.

Hopefully none of our Geelong quartet nominate for any drafts. I think Constable has put that cue in the rack, Simpson would never have been cut if not for injuries which we saw why, Schlensog still only 23 I think at 199cm very mobile can play multiple positions if he has a big pre season and big start could attract attention. 

That Victorian talent scout over here Michael Ablett dropped Aaron Clarke's name as one clubs could be looking at. Would just be our luck. Every WAFL club is at the mercy but probably we are the one who would be impacted the most like we saw when Jaiden Hunter got snatched in his 3rd league game just before the mid season draft. 

Booted 5 against South at Fremantle oval in front of AFL scouts. Not sure we won another game after that.

Schlensog is one player you really want to keep,he’s got the size and strength to play on the Joondalup Falcons Shrek,as well as the ability to be swung forward at centre half forward where he showed at South he can hit the scoreboard.

Yes, a very good player now surrounded by a few mates.

I watched training last night and it was great to see Simpson, Paton and John out there. Stubba looks like he's been on the man shakes. Some big bastard covered in tatts, I assume it was Jaques. Conrad Williams looks like he has a decent kick on him. Probably had more players out there training than this time last season. Q and Dellamarta running laps. 

How long has Paton been on our books?
I hope he can play.

Switched to us from WP beginning of 2023. Had a few soft tissue injuries so struggled to get on the park. I believe joined the police force this year so didn't play in 2024. A few WP supporters rated him and were disappointed to see hm go. High half forward is a position he likes to play.

Culley is training with Melbourne , they don't currently have any list spots available so be interesting to see what eventuates

It’ll probably be a case of ”We don’t have a spot for you but you need to rot in our VFL side until such time as we might want you”
