If you're in Perth and keen on the AFL Draft, we're hosting a watch party during the first round at Varsity Innaloo on Nov 19 for Jumper Punches.
Should be good times.
Free event but if you pre-register (link in replies) you'll get a free beer on arrival.
Yew.
I'm still a bit puzzled about where Jack Viney fits in at West Coast next season.
In a vacuum he's a good in, but he's 32yo joining an on-ball division which already leaned heavily on Elliot Yeo (33), Tim Kelly (32) and Jack Graham (28) and is crying out for youth.
Harley's a lock to lead the CBAs but you'd want to see Willem Duursma get some serious minutes inside, plus make room pinch-hits by pick No.3 (Mellody/Butler/Teixeira).
Go into it a bit more here, along with everything else from WA footy in the past week.

I really like Finlay Yeo.
He's a Freo NGA prospect and there's not much of him, but he competes like hell and makes things happen when he gets the ball.
Will take a bit of time, but he's one of my favourite forward-half players out of this year's WA crop.
Bit more on him from the weekend's state combine jumperpunches.com/p/yeo-litt…
Start of a magnificent Bulldogs career

Tim is a 29yo Paediatric Emergency Doctor. He knows there are more important things than football.
But when he pictures Freo lifting the cup, he can't help but begin to cry.
Another excellent contribution to Jumper Punches.

I’ve reached the age where almost every platform is serving me content about hip mobility.
You best believe I’m watching all of them.
Not sure Tom Morris makes the Dogs’ 23 tbh but all for getting creative at the trade table.

Port Adelaide receive:
Pick 5 (compensation)

Wrap of everything you need to know in WA footy from the weekend.
Unicorns, an Ella masterclass, Freo’s W injury woes and the two best young WAFL defenders go at it.

Articulating the unique experience of supporting Fremantle was beyond me, so I reached out to @mimibirch to do it instead.
This is brilliant.
