Ouch.....sorry KCEF.....we should of palmed off BOB when we had the chance last year......looks like its gonna be an interesting year to say the least.....BOB is a huge loss....

unfortunely I have to agree I can't see us making the finals it
won't be Wiley's fault but the recruiting committee's

Surely the Senior coach is part of that committee!

Wiley got Watson over.

FFS boys, if we're 0/5 or 3/10, then it's time to throw the towel in and start planning for 2018. Till then, I won't give up hope. We won't finish bottom.

kyle westwood now staying at baldivas

Time for the likes of Fletcher and Stokes to take this golden opporktunity of playing regular league footy....be interesting to see if Symonds can stay focused and fit.

Fletcher hasn't come on, has he? Showed some promise in a couple of his League games but went nowhere last year. Hopefully Stokes has bulked up a little. Symonds has a heap of talent- but when was the last time he played??

KCEF....TBH mate Stokes for me would be better suited as 3rd tall either up back or front...Bristow played out of his skin last year, with Watson as a backup....Fletcher got lost in that queue....surely Wiley must see that Watson needs to be a permanent key forward and let Symonds and say a Fletcher ruck.....disappointing Westwood has headed back to Baldivis, but hey that is how the dice rolls....Michael Cronan was an U/18 state ruck 2 years back, maybe he will better for the run in the reserves last year...tho is skinny!

Obviously the likes of Mirco are young, Howson injury prone, but touch wood they can play and help Watson......but yeah are lotta of planets are gonna have to align for EF to push for finals, Luke Strnadica would of been handy up front that is for sure!

I think I read on here that Hawksley was a recruit for old easts? Just read an article in Bunburys south west times that he is lining up for HBL. Shame for you guys, a really good player who left peel due to the alignment.

Hawksley came down to EF for some pre season prior to xmas Singha, along with Thornton, both decided country footy was a better option....more pay, less committment, why not eh?....the WAFL aint the be all these days....pity too.
