Celebrating Members' Round.

 

[ForceFan]

Excellent interview with Ian Prior covering his career and the rebuilding of WF after 2017

 

[ForceFan]

Thanks for a fantastic 2 years as Forwards Coach Jimmy Duffy
All the best for success with Ulster back home in Ireland.

 

[D-Box]

Michael Wells announced retirement.

Ian Prior not renewed (but not officially retired)

These two were announced but suspect the blood letting has started behind the scenes with announcements in the next week or two

 

[The_Brown_Hornet]

Yep and that would explain why Wells took that kick on full time. Definitely changes needed to the list.

 

[ForceFan]

Thanks Michael Wells - go well with your career as a lawyer.

 

[ForceFan]

Fantastic 10 years in Perth Ian Prior - All the best for you and family.

 

[LearningCurve]

Didn't realise that Prior had been in Perth for 10 years now. It reads like he is hoping for a gig overseas to keep playing. Michael Wells statement is very honest in the challenges that he has faced and the way he has been viewed by many but he has managed to achieve more than most so good on him.

 

[ForceFan]

Some serious celebrations with Sea of Blue on the pitch after the Brumbies game.

 

[Mr Pilfer]

Prior and Wells great leaders for the club and wish them the best but also good to see Cron making the tough calls.

Saw another post giving the impression Kaituu was going, no doubt will be a few more but need to keep the core of the group as building well with some good recruits already announced for next year.

If we could pick up a backrower (Leota), second rower (Canham/lukhan) and a couple of props from rebels that would really top it off

 

[The_Brown_Hornet]

Much as I hate to be picking over the bones of the Rebels, if any of them are going anywhere I'd like it to be Perth

I noticed that the list was short on players looking west.

 

[The_Brown_Hornet]

My mail is that there are more than a couple in the mix. We'll see I guess.

Well alreayd getting Swain, so focus should be on keeping Rodda. That will be a net gain. Leota would be a key pickup. Though I wouldn't hate.

4. Swain 5. Rodda
6. Williams 8. Ekuasi 7. Tizzano

19. Carter 20. Harris

Thanks Michael Wells - go well with your career as a lawyer.

Wells sees a lot of opportunity as a lawyer amongst Australian rugby. His retainer greater than his playing contract.
