I agree we are a couple of Midfielders short if we sign Beechy, as well as a quality Key Position Player.

Any recruiting announcements now that the drafts are over?

by bundy Fri Dec 01, 2017 3:19 pm

Can someone let us know if we are going to retain the services of one Johnathan Beech or will it be that we will let a star slip through our fingers.Will be very disturbing if we do!!!!!

Welcome to the forum, hotdip.

I hope we can make you more optimistic, but tthat's a decision to be made by Jono.

If jonno doesn't play with westies I will be pissed of

by bundy Fri Dec 01, 2017 6:32 pm

I hope not another Eagleton

by Wolf Pack Fri Dec 01, 2017 7:03 pm

Money ( or lack of it) a sticking point......

Think it might be bundy

Are the recruiting committee still looking to get a couple of A grade midfielders as well as Beech.
Are we still compromised with a lower salary cap than 5 other clubs.
If we are still under like last year is this going on next year as well.
Are the two midfielders we have got A graders and did they cost us anything. Shocked

Zac Milbank tweeted this rumour today. Either very true or Zac reads this site.

Great news. I think everyone is relieved that he has signed. I didn’t think he would

by RODH2 Wed Dec 06, 2017 2:41 pm

Great news about Jonathon Beech, and what a fantastic effort by Westie's recruiting team in a tough environment out there. Congratulations to all concerned!! Very Happy

by Oldfella Wed Dec 06, 2017 3:03 pm

Fantastic result for the club and supporters.

Much respect to johno as it would have been an extremely difficult decision to make

Well done to the recruiting negotiator part of the recruitment committee.

Another fail for the sanfl board and senior executives plan to screw over south, glenelg and westies

by Oldfella Wed Dec 06, 2017 3:19 pm

Strongly suggest supporter look up andrew marks latest radio interview on facebook.

As allways andrew spoke well and identified the difficulties not only for the club but the player involved

Also a bit on overall recruiting

Well worth a listen imo

by Lachlan Wed Dec 06, 2017 3:39 pm

Fantastic news Beechy has signed. He is a star of the SANFL.
Well done to the Recruting committee on a job well done.

by Second Team Wed Dec 06, 2017 3:48 pm

Well done with Beechy. Time to move on and get two A grade midfielders.

Well done Beechy. Now playing with the Club that loves his footy.

by Mypaspective Wed Dec 06, 2017 4:39 pm

I don’t think so ST. That’s it I think.

Salary Cap now full.

by Second Team Wed Dec 06, 2017 5:32 pm

How can it be full? We lose 4 A graders and get in Beech. Parrella will be our ruckman but surely he cost us nothing. Hupfeld, Eastman and Kirk look like they are trying to get an A grade game at a league club. Do you think that any of these besides Beech and Parrella are in our best 21? Shocked

by Mypaspective Wed Dec 06, 2017 6:21 pm

Perhaps Lee should answer that ST but I don’t think there is any doubt it is full now.

Remember we r on a further restricted cap again so it makes it very hard to keep everyone happy & meet the requirements of SANFL.

by BloodsFireUp Wed Dec 06, 2017 9:53 pm

Sensational news - welcome back Beechy!!
Congrats to the recruiting team.
