Article in The West over here today by Paul Haselby imploring the Eagles to go after blokes like Dow, Zurhaar etc....and basically do what we did with Jack Martin....offer up nothing as a trade and walk them through to the Pre-Season Draft and get them for nothing. He was suggesting someone like Dow offers them an inside mid with some leg speed....something they're lacking at the moment. But, if he did sign a one-year extension as was reported, then they'll have to come up with something. Their second rounder will be an early one and I think they also have Port's second rounder too....both probably a bit higher than what they'd offer.

OK, so we get a few players back (McKay and Martin, and recently Stocker). We have been blooding a few kids (Carroll and Motlop) and even giving Dow a run for the first time in a long time.
*teams come out*
OUT: Carroll, Motlop, Dow, Stocker
IN: Boyd
How? Why?
Please explain.

Stocker should be playing ahead of Boyd..Cottrell probably got punished for Collingwood wingers playing so well.
Amon having a blinder vs the Tigers and might be upping his price...

Cottrell was poor and wasted half of his possessions, but Newnes wasn’t much better. O’Brien had a decent game but he also let Sidebottom get away.
I thought Stocker was OK, apart from a couple of shanked kicks, but he’s not in great form. Even so, I can’t see how Boyd offers more.

You reckon Amon was good last night EB? I though his disposal in particular was very ordinary.
2017-16th
2018-Wooden Spoon
2019-16th
2020-dare to dream? 11th is better than last I suppose
2021-Pi$$ or get off the pot
2022- Real Deal or more of the same? 0.6%
2023- "Raise the Standard" - M. Voss Another year wasted Bar Set
2024-Back to the drawing boardNo excuses, its time

Say what you like about Amon, but the one take away I could see is that he ran hard both ways.
He isnt dissimilar to Lachie O'Brien really.
