a lot of players play a fair amount of ressies footy before they cement their spot in the league team but how many are going to stick around if there is little chance of pinching a spot when the afl boys are taking their opportunities?

McKenna, winton, bristow etc... have all made the right move

If there is any better indication of how desperate some Peel/East Perth local players are to leave, they're even buying themselves out of contracts. Like in the old days when you could buy yourself out of the British Army.

interesting that one of the players you are talking about played 3 league games at east perth in 2014 and went to the swannies last year and played 2 league games and 20 reserves game. Considering the injury to Josh Smith and Mcinnes he most probably would have played more footy if he stayed put .Nearly all the players who have left East Perth to play with g7 are playing regular reserves footy. They might be desperate to play league footy but they have to have some ability.

out of interest what ep players that have left and are playing in the elsewhere in the wafl
