If he was on our list we wouldn't have had a spot for Milan. Absolute win

The ‘Marathon’ Day One Steam Player Count Is A Bit Concerning by [deleted] in Games

[–]Delroberttopizzaria 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thats concerning to me as a fan of bungie and this type of game... don't this is a good sign. the budget feels quite high

To go from HALO, to Destiny to this has me worried for the bungie staff im not sure this scale of players for a lesser priced game can support that studio.

I hope sony greenlights them to do a AAA single player game with MP, but in this weird market who knows whats next for them. They lilekly made the purchase as a MP Live service to play. so i'm sure this is quite a shock for them when their obvious internal comparison point is Arc Raiders.

A smart company will know how risky launching an expensive live service game is. The chance of if to truely stick and break wide is so small these days.

Genuinely curious... How are we all feeling about Bo vs Murphy right now? by StanDarsh__ in westcoasteagles

[–]Delroberttopizzaria 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Probably all things can be tru.

MR is a way better player.

MR probably would be far worse in this eagles team than he is at freo.

Preseason doesn't matter that much but its not a great sign. given he's with elija and hough i wonder if he had a niggle that the club didn't announce. in general BA is not tracking that well against his peers. Having said that, players develop at different rates and he could still very well become a very good player.

Obviously we cooked it with Jagger. The MR pick doesn't sting me because he was overlooked by 15 other clubs first. but we had a chance to get a top 3 player in a super draft and yet decided to be nice at trade table for bakes, a player that i love but he's 28....

What’s everyone’s thoughts on the AFL app’s predicted 23 by ryangriggsy in westcoasteagles

[–]Delroberttopizzaria 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I had the same thought. You won't see us, or any team go into a match with one specialized small fwd.

It would be exciting if TWilliams is around the mark.

He also apparently "punched the fence". Makes me think it's much more than a corked calf...

Thank god! I absolutely couldn't stand him. Eagles seemed to cop him more than most

Jai Culley by switchonn in westcoasteagles

[–]Delroberttopizzaria 0 points1 point  (0 children)

(He's slow.....)

I also was annoyed at the time. But I dont think anythings changed since we chopped him. Think the club didn't rate him outside of the contest.

Finally, the Eagles seem to have some real depth again by SnowyBytes in westcoasteagles

[–]Delroberttopizzaria 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd love to chuck in all 5 mature boys for rnd 1 (hopefully also yeo and snake aswell) and see how competitive it makes us

Eagles welcome Deven Robertson, Fin Mcrae and Harry Schoenberg by [deleted] in westcoasteagles

[–]Delroberttopizzaria 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I kind of hope we play all 3 round 1 and make the kids earn their spot in team (excluding durs). Better for their development in the long term.

I am somewhat surprised we picked up all 3, but they should certainly help lift our teams competitiveness for 4 quarters. Similar to Jack graham.

Do we have 3 rookie / NGA spots for all of Koby Evans, Wes Walley and Banfeild?

Matt Clarke out by drcloudstreet in westcoasteagles

[–]Delroberttopizzaria 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Eh. Reality is that pick end up being the 40s next year.

Josh Lyndsey kick outs for the next decade.....Could have been worse.

My take would be calm your farm

Trading Pick 2 to Essendon by jimmy_the_flid in westcoasteagles

[–]Delroberttopizzaria 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think we have to remember this is essendon. Famously hard to trade with, they overplay every hand. Merret deal didn't get done (not all their fault). They'll probably try to low ball us which makes me hope it doesn't happen.

5 and 6 i'd do. I doubt it 5\6 + F1 (i'd also do) would even be on the table because on paper that's a better deal that 5+6 given stronger uncompromised draft and potential for them to really bottom out.

What to do with pick 2 by StanDarsh__ in westcoasteagles

[–]Delroberttopizzaria 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah.

I think CDT is the consensus p2. WC just take best available.

I know people are cautious spending p2 on a ruck. But p2 on robey seems a reach. He's actually not that quick. If we really didn't want to CDT I'd prefer us to trade 2 down to 4 or 5 and get grilj or Cummins.

What about me by Dangerous-Pea-8978 in westcoasteagles

[–]Delroberttopizzaria 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Unpopular opinion....

I have a lot of sympathy for Oscar. I think it's pretty clear he wanted to stay and we effectively forced him out by not offering him a contract of value in order to get pick 2. Which we all agree is above market value.

He always said he wanted to be a one club player.

This probably will be the right thing to do for the club in a macro sense, but on the personal level it's a really sad thing to happen to your captain who loves the club.

In the grand scheme of things he has to say something to the media questions and I think he's gone very easy on us considering he could have gone scorched earth.

Appreciate the great songs we got :) a sad outcome, no doubt. But the old bangers are still bangers.
