The following players are WA born and bred and wanting to return home/change clubs or both:
Leuenburger
L.Jetta
C.McCarthy
H.Bennell
For the Docker's to take that next step while we still have Sandi, Johnno and Mundy running around Bond needs to secure three of those four.
We have salary cap space with the likely retirements of Pav and AA Luke and trade bait like Clarke, Sheridan et al to utilise. I don't care if McCarthy or Bennell costs us our next 2 first round picks, swap Clarke for one of them , throw enough money at Leuenburger to get him home. We need elite talent to compliment the elite players and give young blokes like Langdon, Grey, A.Pearce & Weller a solid run.
If Bond fails to execute his designated role - then get someone in who can.
If we had one, two or even all three of Yeo, Wellingham or Cripps out there tonight it would have made a difference - but the only blokes who we seem to bring over are by and large crabs or injury-riddled. Think Anthony, Gumbleton & Sylvia.
So as we sit here contemplating the best chance we've ever had to win a flag disappear, those w#nkers up the road are likely to get there before us. As soon as next weekend, even.
Gutted is not the word for how I feel now - hung, drawn and quartered is closer.
