Eagles are going to struggle to keep gaff and McGovern with the money other clubs are throwing around.

Gov will end up at Freo, they’ve got a stack of money in the war chest and they’ll offer him 5 or 6 years.

No Freo
Only reason you would go to Freo is because your guaranteed to have September off
Both McGovern and Gaff have said that team success is important and to be 100% honest with Rolph Lyon as Freo coach they wont have any success any time soon.
McGovern wants a longer contact than 5 years that's the only sticking point with him staying with the Eagles. My gut feel is Eagles will give in and offer him the 6 that he wants.
Gaff I think will leave as he has been offered $800 - 900 at Melbourne clubs and he isn't on that much at the Eagles and rumour is the Eagles don't want to offer than much.
As for this week I think theres going to be a few upsets
Collingwood
Richmond
Brissy - Think this will be close and they will pip them
Carlton
Essendon - As long as they tackle like last week
Eagles
Melbourne
North Melboune

I would be happy to see Freo
I would be happy to see Freo goto the trade period and throw big money and long contract offers at the big key forwards / key position and rucks on the market. Mcgovern, lynch, lobb, or hogan (i these last two have another year on their contracts).
Our defence has taken shape with many years in front of them to develop into one of the competitions best.
Our mids are already at that level and the youngsters coming through will only compliment that. I reckon before season end we might see blakely move in there and fyfe go forward.
What we desperately need is one ir two quality tall forwards. Taberner looks like he is ready to step up and his injury was really unfortunate timing. We need another to take the focus off mccarthy. Watch for apeness and darcy to come back in two play those ruck / key forward roles.
A big forward capable of clunking some marks will straighten up the midfield delivery.
I dont think freo are that far off getting the team right, then its just a matter of implementing the game plan week in week out anywhere in australia.
Fish! HARD!

Piggy is correct, why would
Piggy is correct, why would you leave a club on the verge of a premiership, if Gaff wants to go then good on him for filling his pockets you'd then have to wonder what he's been playing for all these years.

Verge of a premiership?
The only just made the 8 last year , most people had them in the bottom 4 this year whichi thought was generass....
Rumour has it Mcglover wants to goto Hawthorn to be closer to his brother, Sicily will tuck the young Eagle under his wing and show him how a contest mark is taken....
Gaff.... 8-900k? Tell him he's dreaming, you ask that sort of money you need to be a game breaker! The Ty Vickery type.....
Lynch will end up at the Hawks, its the destinaton club...
As for this week
Pies
Freo
Eagles
Dons
Syd
Geel
Rich
Melb - If you are a betting man throw your house on the Dees...... They'll smack Adelaide i reckon

Perfectly put Boon. Gaff is an A grader but there are many more like him in the league who do a solid job week in week out but aren't game breakers. If Cripps wants to come back to WA as is being reported then Gaff + our first pick might just get it done.

Ha ha, very funny Boony
Jetta and Masticate wouldn't be automatic picks for the 22 each week ., though they are in this week, which improves the Hawk's chances .
Keep writing us off you lot. The Eagles will keep getting the job done each week, though free kick Hawthorn will be a good test this week.
Good luck with the fishing too. Hope to see a good trip report.

I'm off to the game on Sunday and can't fathom how the betting odds are at 1.92 each. I would of thought that the Roos would be clear cut favourites.

Dont judge freo at optus
Dont judge freo at optus stadium as you would judge them at adelaide oval, scg or in canberra. Freo worst result at optus is an 8 point loss to the eagles.
They are a completely different team at home. If it were north vs the eagles at optus would north start favourites?
Also think about the weather forecast. The roos have got a very tall forward line. That may haunt them in the wind and rain. Expect a very low scoring game.
