Yeah, I'm that concerned about that older group FF2 mentioned. Griff, i think, set a great example and always put his body on the line. Out of those older guys, the football department hasn't brought in another ruckman. So they're either happy with what coming through or, given that Jansen spent time in the ruck, don't rate ruckman!

I mean, c’mon. Surely you wouldn’t want to keep bringing it up??? Move on FFS

Not sure the Sherriff is a great admirer of anything DEES.

That’s interesting FF2 as I recall Bubble O’Bill telling it the other way around that Perth approached Strnadica and EF were prepared to clear him but he didn’t want to go.

With bigger bodies in Dixon and O'Reilly to chop out for Strnadica in the ruck, I think Jansen won't be needed in the ruck. Getting Marsh will only add more versatility match day to EF talls....I guess injury wise Teakle at 200cm can always step in as well.....

DD....not sure where FF2 is getting his info from,....well known from the "inner circle" that Perth came knocking with a big offer post 2019, Strnadica said thanks but no thanks....

Didn't say my info originated from the club FF2....ultimately the only person who knows the truth to that story is Strnadica himself....as for O'Reilly, pretty sure if the kid was living on his dad's name he would still be on Freo's list....but hey as you rightly say, all up to O'Reilly and Strnadica to state their cases next season....

Footyfan2 wrote: Sorry Freeze but I’m right and you’re wrong! Our club will deny it to save face. O’Reilly will need to step up next season! Another classic example of a son living on his father’s name.

Convenient as the EFFC hasn't had to deny it because it is only you on here claiming it as the whole truth and nothing but! Sounds fractionally more plausible than your claim of having played in the 1984 grand final though.

I think thats right, DD- and wasn't it why they spoke to Leggett? For a straight swap?

According to Facebook Marsh has signed

Yep saw that too GWP....if on the money, that is a great pick up for EF, probably the best of the lot....and only 1 point....be interested to see if HT decides to don the boots for a year....
