Yeah, bit sad for a few of them but as you say puts us in with a really good shot at having another big year, specially looking at the losses some of the other clubs have had with the draft. Some of those blokes would have starred in the WAFL in 2015.

Just keen to see who this VFL recruit is.

Thought it would be hard for Yazza with crap like that change.org petition that is going around. I heard that the vfl recruit may have fallen through?

One could delude oneself and think that Connor Blakely's development was becuase of his involvement in the 18s carnival rather than playing in our league side.

bit confused as where and why you came out with that comment 42 .......all I'm saying is that every state had key guys out with injuries and they seem to over come these losses ok and win games during the carnival.....a tad better it seems than what WA could/did.....

BH.....I'd be interested to see which state has the most players delisted post drafting within 4 years and which state produces the most players who stay in the AFL the longest.....there will always be a bias to Vic Metro/Country players.......

I wouldn't worry about the Vic recruit you are close to signing one of the most damaging players in the WAFL from another club.

can you give us some clues without naming the person Larry?

Well, we need to replace about 70 possessions per game with Bristow, McDougall and probably Hildebrandt gone.

Wouldn't mind if it's Brendan Lee from EP, that's for sure

what petition is that DG?

I won't name him BC but I assure you he is top drawer. Mass exodus at EP this year but mostly reserves quality players.
