    I think go hard at Fyffe. If not pick 18 and Adams would be close to getting Jaeger. Then a WA team give a player to GCS for Adams, and they get their wish of a first rounder and a decent player. Jaeger goes into our midfield.

    Mitch Brown is 100% leaving WCE for Victoria, he'd be better than his brother.

    Yeah, reckon there's more to this one and the personal insults are probably over the line.

    And like with Tom Boyd, he will only get the standard second year wage.

    Are we looking a bit foolish at the moment? We left a lot of guys out of contract and with the amount apparently on the way out, there are a few I would have liked to keep

    Of players with currency, there's only three players: Hamling, Hrovat & Stevens. Hamling had an offer and Hrovat a& Stevens apparently wanted to wait until the end of the year.

    Well Adams is under contract.

    But certainly would have liked to have kept Stevens and Hrovat. But you can't overpay for depth.

    Maybe we're yet to play our hand ala when Griffen dumped us and all seemed like doom and gloom.

    Foolish is probably overstating it but if the guys slated to be leaving do go, we're going to be pretty reliant on Webb, Dale, Hamilton and the like to really step up with not many runs in the bank. It's not the position I'd like to be in as the hunted premiers

    Marcus, we hardly knew ye ...

    How disappoointing. If a likely starting 22 spot with the reigning premiers isn't attractive enough to a professional footballer rescued from the WAFL, ship him off for the highest ransom we can muster.

    From memory he has a very close relationship with his brother, who was the victim of a coward punch and has had numerous setbacks. Not sure how anyone could begrudge Adams wanting to be back home if there are personal circumstances at play relating to his brother.

    His trade value should have only increased after his first season. If Hamling has concerns about getting game time next year, he might struggle more with Freo than with the Dogs, if Adams and Marsh find their way back home. Freo already have Sam Collins and Alex Pearce (and potentially Marsh and Adams coming back) as long term key backs and West Coke have McGovern and Barrass.

    Target their pick 7.
