TOPIC:

Dazzler, initially a one year loan.
But hopefully from acorns grows large oaks.
Maybe need to coax him with a coaching role.

Be a great pick up for Perth and exactly what they need. A big target up forward to provide a contest and can pinch in the Ruck. Or would he be the #1 Ruck?

Excellent news for Perth and the real comp - also hope PFC can put a long term deal together that will keep him at Lathlain for years

Good question. Be interesting to see how he does get used.

There will be a few Eagles top-up players potentially looking for a new club. The WAFL, you would hope, would allow some points concessions, even if temporarily. I understand we were in the frame to sign Brady Grey. It might be worth pursuing him again, he would be a good replacement for Leggett. And there is no way we should give Leggett a permit to play amateurs.

I'm pretty sure Leggett has already been given a permit to play at North Fremantle for 2020.

You may be right KCEF. I thought he had been given a permit to train only. Even that was overly generous on our part, but we may have granted that in the hope that he may relent and play for Perth. If it is clear he is not going to, we should withdraw any permit that has been issued. (if that can be done) Why would we help Leggett get match fitness and touch for EF benefit? God knows we owe no courtesy to either party.

Fraser would be one more piece of the jigsaw in place. Would solve a problem or two.

I’m not getting to excited,yes it will be great to have him but it could only be for 8 games then next season back to our neighbours.

Yes 30+ only on loan for 2020.A good sales strategy is always to allow a test drive.
I would be more positive, and try and find away to get him to want to stay.
As I said maybe a coaching role.
That may also provide a salary package opportunity.
I see him as prospect for 5-6 years service at least.
