Good pick up I think mate

Update from the club's website. Young May could be a good pickup and great to see a real ruckman arrive at the club. Jury is out on Cooley given recent history but hopefully settles in ok.

Archer May 200cm Key Forward from Richmond VFL. 20yrs

Archer will provide a big target down forward, look for his clean hands and mobility. Archer will compliment Ryan Borchet and Jack Mayo and hopefully give the opposition some sleepless nights.

Jedd Edwards 200cm Ruck from East Perth FC. 25yrs

Jedd has been understudy to Scott Jones at East Perth for several years and has proven his capability when asked to shoulder the league ruck duties in Jones’s absence. We are looking to Jedd for physicality and aggression in the contest and to give our midfield first use out of stoppage.

Jack Cooley 192cm Midfield/Utility from Perth FC. 23yrs

Jack joins us from Perth FC and will add depth to our midfield brigade. Jack has the ability to play inside/outside and being 192cm can play tall whilst having good speed to break the lines. Jacks played 52 League games and averaging 21 disposals.

Is anyone going to the AGM on 4th December at 6pm? Interested to hear what the club thinks of 2024 and how our financials are travelling.

What was the financial result this year BC?

I think we had a small loss in 2023 Baz, but no idea for this year. I can't recall the last time we made a profit. Probably back when the seats deal at Subi Oval was in full swing but even that soured towards the end when we had to hand a big chunk of seats back to the WAFC as they weren't making money.

Malachi Champion missed out on the draft as well. Two subi junior footballers did get drafted. Unfortunately from Claremont. They are really heartland kids for us. Like the real Johnny Leonard. 
To rub salt into the wounds, Hamish ? Is the grandson of a subi great, who's name escapes me atm.

The Champ will go to WCE in the rookie draft unfortunately JL.

BC you'd have to have a small question mark over Cooley? He's had more clubs than Tiger Woods does he have the ticker to fit into the culture at Subiaco. 

Considering all those great players have retired from Subi's dominant years....not sure that same Subi culture exists TBH. Sokol and Kitchen were the last of it.
