It was in the West online that Randall was going to Perth

Interesting the way Woodcock worded it KC. Randall and Thorne linked to Perth but neither of those signings has been made official. Sounds like he knows something.

Sounds like Randall could be like for like with Cooley on field and off. 

Knowing what we do now, I think most East Perth supporters would have preferred Cooley.

I certainly understand your frustration OTO, we lost two key position players Avery and Hunter who was taken in the MSD last year after we helped rehab him from several injuries. Delisted and chose to go to Claremont.

Do you think there is some other reason he wanted to leave? Hard to figure players out these days.

Who knows what goes on in the minds of some people, DD? If I knew, I could be rich.
 

Let's hope Stone can handle Randall better than German obviously handled Cooley.
I was disappointed in the outcome of German.
We all had such high hopes with his appointment.
Obviously, he didn't change with the times.

My twopenith  worth is that I got the impression he thought we could do the bail out for the drugs crap and then did not like being third fiddle to Crowden and Schumaker. At Perth his place in the hierarchy will be perhaps a little higher. He was an ok bloke but not one of 'boys'. 

Not sure he will be too high in the order.
With Constable, Simpson, Parfitt and Byrne probably higher in the pecking order.

Tyrone Thorne confirmed. Now on our list.

205cm ruckman Kalin Lane has been delisted by Brisbane and will return to Claremont in 2025.

Needless to say Claremont will have a very formidable ruck combination with state ruckman Oliver Eastland. Probably next best EF with Blakiston and Strnadica returning.

SF have Jimmy Miller and Hamish Free returning.
