Freeze its not always about money. For Perth, it's 100% about on field success and a good forward with AFL experience that only costs 1 point is invaluable to the faithful that starve success. Honestly, I wouldn't except $50k for him.

Where in his playing record do you come up with classifying him as “a good forward”? I can’t be bothered but perhaps you could tell us his goal kicking average and how many times he’s kicked 4 goals in a game or more? I see him as no more than a big bodied athlete capable of taking a few big grabs but suspect in front of goals but capable back up ruckman at WAFL level. Take the cash and use it wisely to get someone of real value.

That is the daily funny?
Surely?

Yeah, we have a heap of KPP’s that have track record at WAFL Level and are 1 pointers - why would we need him?
FFS - STT and DD you are both living in dreamland if you don’t think this isn’t an outrage.

I'm pretty sure transfer fees are set- and they're quite low. So McInnis will have a designated value that West Coast will just have to pay- it'll be less than 20k I'd say

I predicted this months ago.

No shit!! We all predicted it and knew it would happen.
Get outraged and tell the WAFC!

In this case - if the WAFC has made this decision
then any delisted AFL player not originally from another WAFL club who remains in WA should , by agreement , and by the same set of principles be allocated to Perth in return
but really it is just a bad call by the WAFC

Good to see the club has been in communication with Aiden Tropicano since July in an attempt to lure him back to Lathlain. Now a North Adelaide premiership player and won their b&f this year. Essential we get him back or the equivalent to replace the retired Clint Jones. Dale Balantyne says we are also on the lookout for a key forward but no mention of an experienced ruckman.

Is Aiden really that good? I would love him back but he wasn't our answer before and he isn't our answer now.
