nobody in the VFL or SANFL kicked over 50 goals and Sokol was just over 50.
good luck finding someone to kick 60 and we know where he would end up anyway.

And where is that Mark????

Mo thinks this mythical 60 goal forward will end up at Subi but we already have a potential 50+ goal FF in Borchet, Sokol is imho only a rough chance to go AFL so we wont be looking for anyone in that area, only area we are lacking is a true tap ruckman.

I think McInnes would be a great get or should I say get back for Perth, once he's out of the WC regime it should free him up to play a more natural game plus he will be a leader rather than a bit player in the AFL. Should be good for 30+ goals plus share the ruckwork.

As a one point player Fraser McInnes is a good inclusion if he decides he wants to continue playing in the WAFL and decides that team to be Perth. 126 game players don't come around every day. If he can get back to his 2017/18 form then he'll be great as a second ruckman and tall option in the forward line.

Also with regards to his AFL career he's done well to be on a list for eight seasons. Was probably kept as insurance when Nic Nat injured himself.

Full Forwards are out there and not just in the second tier comps.
Just need the recruiting guys to throw the net far and wide.
Remember Brenton Cooper recruited in 1994 by Perth from the Ovens and Murray league no one had ever heard of him,topped the wafl goal kicking with 90 for the year.

SS, this is the pall that Subi has cast over the competition. Opposition fans simply assume that what Subi want, they get. And I repeat what Schofield said a few years back: that he sends his recruiters out every off-season to find the best available talent. You may say every club does or should do the same, but only Subi has the money to get 7-8 such players all at the one time. So the concern for Perth and other clubs looking to recruit is that Subi may be looking for a ruckman, forwards to replace Wheeler and Sokol and midfielders to replace De Luca and maybe Horsley. The only hope other clubs have is that you may run into points problems in terms of getting more than a couple of players in. Otherwise, clubs cannot afford to get into a bidding war with Subi. Thankfully, I doubt Subi would be interested in using 12 points on McInnes. I think our main threat comes from him staying on at the Eagles.

Spot on Ted.
Although I have softened on that idea since Wiley has headed recruiting.
I think there is a very good chance he will wear red and black.
Let's hope so.

Will test our resolve and desire.
Possibly our most important re-listing ever.

I'm going to agree with this statement. I can't think of a more important re-listing apart from Barry Cable and we all know what happened when we didn't get him back. I also think McInnes can be our 50/60 goal forward if we leave him as a forward and not use him as a back up ruck. We have other options as a second ruck.

Reckon EP might have some cash to splash.....as for Fraser being a 60 goal forward?....surely Buddy is only capable of that when he retires and comes home....
