Well...if you get all your footy info from WOOF like me (and themongrelpunt) it actually isn't too bad.
I watched the practice game on the weekend and given some of the lack of effort by the Eagles players my thoughts were that they need to make a coaching change. I pretty much never ever say that but I just can't see the point of Simpson continuing.
What should I tell her? She's going to ask.

Yeah I agree , didn’t see much urgency at all.

The only problem for Eagles is that his salary would have to come out of the footy department spend and that would inhibit them in a big way going forward.
I think they would make the change if they could because it's not really a money consideration for the club as they are one of the richest of clubs in the competition and they could afford it but because the money has to come out of the footy depart they need to lose a lot of staff.
Are they any names being mentioned in the west as a possible replacement for Simpson?

He's out of contract end of next year. The Eagles could easily pay the luxury tax for going over their soft cap if they wanted. Estimates last year is it would've cost them $7mil to sack him. That goes down as each month passes.
Dean Cox is the presumptive heir I believe.

Re: West Coast
I like Peter Sumich now. He is right and stands by it.

Re: West Coast
Had a chuckle about it.
Honestly, it goes both ways. The media shouldn’t be building him up as frequently as it seems they are. Sumich probably shouldn’t go too hard at a kid who hasn’t played a game yet (not sure he was going too hard mind you). Great to not be the #1 pick in some ways.

Remember The bulldogs copped it for not playing JUH, the media chose to leave out the facts that he couldn’t play
VFL due to covid shutting the comp down so he wasn’t playing at all.
The fact he was picked up by side that was playing finals and not a bottom side.
He was a tall skinny forward who needed to put on some weight.
Then two years later they are congratulating Bevo for not playing him early.
Your right the last thing you want as an 18 year old is being pick 1.
