Sorry to see him go & thanks for your part in 2 flags.

But you are the oppo now.

Great pickup in the rookie draft.
He paid us back in spades for his effort and work rate.
Sad to see a champion leave the club.

Baker was my favourite player for a while there. The eagles are getting a beauty. Mini may even make him captain next year.

While I always thought he was worth more than pick 14, what is done is done. Hopefully we will nail the player we draft for him.

Sad to see him go, what a little star. Hopefully we can pick up a future premiership hero with the pick.

Always liked Big Shorts. Not a great exit with the fan base the other week, but whatevs. Good player. Gave it his all. Premiership hero.

Good job Bakes. Thanks.

Bakes is just what the Eagles need. Some heart and soul on the field to drive their kids to be better, leading by example on field.

We've made a healthy capital profit on a rookie listed player while getting plenty of dividends along the way. A win all round as we look to the future.

All the best Bakes!

Who else have we got coming through on the big shorts front ? Dunno if we've got many baggy short wearers atm. Green ?

Fawcett runs pretty big. Maybe him.

We need to draft one.

To be fair Bakes only had big shorts because we didn’t have any shorts small enough for him.

Now there's a good question. Who in this draft has big shorts ?

This is important. Toce better get this right.

Steely Green is as tough if not tougher than Liam.

Have said that all along and that the little man has big upside. Better kick than Bakes too. Maybe a better engine as well.

Put him on the ball I reckon. Where he played at South Fremantle.
