Hewett in the rehab group already
West Coast welcomed its players back to pre-season with a brutal running test.
As around 30 players hit the track, @codeaflau had eyes on new recruits, injury concerns and some new tricks.

Essendon take Drever so the big question is what Rich do at 2 - most likely Butler or Mellody but a small chance it’s HVH. WC take whoever is leftover out of Butler and Mellody. Dees could go HVH, Harris or Tex. Syd probably bid on Matthews and take Harris if he’s there.
Looking like the top 9 picks will play out as:
1. Cochrane - Port
2. Drever - Bombers
3. Walker - Carlton
4. Butler - Tigers
5. Mellody - WC
6. Texiera - Dees
7. HVH - Tigers
8. Matthews - GWS
9. Harris - Swans

Get out of there while you still can, Chad.
A statement regarding Tom Papley.

9. Harris - Swans
A bit of discussion that the bid for Matthews could come early, which would make it hard to trade for the Giants pick 9.
Some of the intel from this includes …
- Bombers’ top open-pool choice doesn’t appear locked in. Some of the contenders set to meet key officials at the club post-exams.
- Ethan Matthews bid a decent chance to come before Sydney’s pick.
- Pies looking to move up the order, most likely for Sam Gayfer
- Harvie Cooke a first-round chance
- Dons NGA prospect Blake Justice has fans in the 20s
- Everyone is linked to St Kilda …

We play 3 top 7 teams twice next year, with two of them being top two on H&A ladder (Fremantle, Melbourne, and Sydney). Obviously Freo is unavoidable, but why don't we play North, Saints or GWS twice?

Potential plan could be:
Pick 3: Butler/Mellody
Pick 23 + F1 to get up the board: Snell/Bradley/Steed
Pick 24 for a F1
Later pick: Banfield/Lecras
"West Coast is open to trading one of its picks in the 20's (once compensation is allocated)"
"If they can turn one of them into a future 1st Round selection I think they're very open to doing that"

Well we can rule out Steed sliding to our second rounder.
The first group of prospects invited to the opening night of the draft are in 👇📩
Thirteen draftees in the initial list of invites, with a couple more likely to be added closer to the draft. afl.com.au/news/1636237/doug…

Looking unlikely we will be able to trade up to get another first rounder.
Pick swap news ahead of the Draft👇
- Brisbane is shopping pick 21. The first pick of night two is absolutely up for grabs.
- Collingwood has looked at trading up from pick 11.
- GWS unlikely to move from pick 9 before the draft.
- Port open to shuffling back picks 7 and/or 12.

I'll never forget that Owies was the reason we pulled the trigger on the Pick 3 deal with Carlton
Matt Owies will not continue at West Coast in 2027.
We thank Matt for his contribution over the past two years and wish him well for the future 💙

Huge.
Collingwood's AFLW captain Ruby Schleicher will leave the club at the end of the season, where she is expected to join West Coast on a four-year deal. She informed Magpies staff and teammates of her decision this morning. More on @AFLcomau.

Looks like we have a total of 46 list spots (Main List + Cat A). We currently have 44 contracted and only 2 spots open to use on the national draft. You’d think there’s a chance Owies, Brock or Macrae get squeezed despite being contracted.
