Charlie Dean handed No 14. 3 and 6 are vacant have we got room for more? With that huge turnout at the Claremont Great Southern clinic I’m worried we can’t compete. Reckon under the Competitive Balance policy we need a couple more.
Just watched some highlights of Charlie Dean.
He could well be the recruit of the year.
We have definitely strengthened our backline.
We have now got a first class full back.
Well done team DEES.
When we signed Schlensog I thought wow that’s CHB/FB sorted and can go forward. He’s turned out to be best value as a forward and mobile ruckman.
Last season the backline was most vulnerable especially when Johnno went down early in the season and we lost Avery in the off season. So we had to rely on a very young Scoble and Preston-Coates who did well early but got a bit exposed against the better opposition.
So Dean is clearly a strategic priority to address which will benefit Scoble enormously. Now we have Glass-McCasker and Chaplin returning we are suddenly flushed with big man depth.
WOW what a backline.
Composure: Taylor, Scoble, Dean
Reading the Play: Taylor, Scoble, Dean
Marking: Scoble, Sing, Dean
Disposal: Taylor, Scoble, Dean, Hine-Baston
Run: Hine-Baston, Taylor, Phillip
I’m getting excited by the potential of our backline.
Huge midfield (strengthened).
Targets up forward.
And new ruck laws may spring a surprise or two.
Wow, can’t wait for 2026.
Seriously, watch out South, EP and Claremont.
This could be the year. East Perth v Perth gf.
Luke Hallett from East Perth added to our list. No 34. Played colts 185cm from Boyup Brook. Looks like he played 3 games for WA in the u/18s championship this year and got a total of 26 posessions and kicked 5 goals.
On Rookie me Central says he booted 5 goals in three games and was one to watch.

Hallett is a talent

I think he is another EP player who sees the opportunity to progress at my club very limited. His big brother was injured last year and in talking to him he was not sure about returning. He would be a good utility player for you.

Can’t see why he wouldn’t be welcome at Lathlain joining his brother Grump.
