Chris Mayne no longer on senior list?
EFFC colts coach apparently
Fair enough for Mayney. All the best for him. I think EF were a fair way down the list in Colts - it will be a good challenge
EFFC only called for applications on 13/10/2022.
So I wouldn’t have thought Mayne has been appointed yet.
If he is good luck to him would have liked to see him pull the boots on for 1 more year.
I think he will be good in a development role.
Boys I was taking the mick…rather hoping Jon Griffin gets the EF colts job…but as DF rightly said, the job has only been recently advertised…quite surprised Mayne didn’t get the Perth colts gig. …There are a couple of other colts gigs free though…the Subi one would be pretty attractive, they have some very talented kids coming through…I think their futures have been unbeaten for the last 2-3 years…that’s pretty impressive.

Retired
Crowden and Griffin off Dockers’ list, Waterman off Essendon’s list, Stack off Richmond, Narkle off Geelong.
There are others around. I hope we are on the front foot and being very pro-active. The snail does not often beat the hare.
Confirmed losses so far: Ainsworth, Fisher, McInnes, Mayne. Likely losses: Busher, Smith, Giblett. Philip had a very strong performance in the draft combine, so there’s some chance we won’t see him or Connor McDonald. Jayden Hunter not back on the list either. Gains so far: nil.
Early days, I know, but we need some good news and soon. I reckon we have to throw the kitchen sink at Waterman and Crowden.
Also must try and hang onto Giblett and the Bush.
Ted, that is a lot of exits from the core of our list that must be remedied. A huge task.
Perhaps early days yet for any positive news but I am assuming that the club is not sitting on it’s hands but is out there and not being beaten to the punch by other clubs. If not extract the digit.
I expect that there should be some news, good or bad, before the end of this month.
I see the Eagles are showing interest in Baxter Philip from your club. I have to admit that I know nothing about him, but seems like he’s agile and pretty fast. Can he play footy?
He is very clean with great foot skills and a long kick. However, he has a very light frame, at only 61kg, and that was apparent in the two league games he played for Perth. It’s that situation all WAFL fans go through: you want your players to fulfil their ambitions, but you also want them to play good footy for your club. Hopefully the AFL clubs will think that Philip will benefit from another year to bulk up a bit. However, the Eagles might decide he can do that in their reserves team.
Thanks for the reply Ted. I hope for his sake he stays with you for another year. Putting him in the WCER is not what a young kid needs. TBH, the eagles ressies are going nowhere, so you don’t want the lad continually playing in a losing team and getting the feeling that losing is a norm.
Have heard a rumour going around that Darren Rumble could be a line coach under German.
Anyone else hear anything of the sort?

Correct. Not the only $ legend joining the Demons coaching panel either.
Any news on players yet Dazz. I note that EF and CL have been very active already. I hope that we are not being left behind.
Your people should be asking Zac Langdon what his plans are Smokey.

Well, if they have not spoken with him then they should have. We are just not getting any news atm.
I know that we are going to have a new coaching regime and early days as yet but it is frustrating. I would expect some positive news on all fronts over the next couple of weeks.
If Langdon is available, no doubt your lot would be all over him.
Under the circumstances, I’d be surprised if they did chase him smokes. But do I sense a bit of rancour in that comment?

No rancour at all Shark. If you have read my earlier posts I did note that the Sharks and Claremont seem to be on the front foot already re recruiting for 2023 whereas, whilst I hope the Demons are not sitting on their hands waiting for things to happen.
There is not much info emanating from our club atm.
