Ahhh good ol preseason hope! The life of a dockers supporter. Realistically we could finish anywhere from 12th -1st!
Every year we get so excited. X has put on heaps of size, Y seems so focused and driven, Z is back from injury etc and this new kid is TTHD.
Every club is commenting the same...
I agree. He’s a good solid player, but not a game breaker type. Vanilla is a good word to describe him. I never felt he made a big difference to us, and swapping him for Amiss has been a god send. Like swapping a potato for a bar of gold.
Surprised no thread on this? On one hand the reporting seems very genuine regarding genuine health issues etc. though I don’t understand what they mean by “concerns over his off-field lifestyle”. What’s happening here? Innocent issues or something more?

Oh for gods sake. The guys on several hundred grand a year. He lives in a bigger ivory tower than we’d ever dream of. Get off you horse of pity. There’s no reason he needed to smack a fella round. Could’ve been the bigger man and walked away. Once a peanut always a peanut.
You really think in a well lit area, in front of all those ppl, being filmed, if he put his hands in the air and walked away he’d be king hit? I guess we come from different worlds.
You’re right, there could be much more too it and likely there is, but Liam, putting up his fists and attacking or at least counter attacking is certainly not diffusing the situation, no matter how you want to paint it. Hands in the air, turn, walk away would all look better on camera than what...
one of the weirdest club statements i've ever seen. The bloke is filmed actively fighting - no attempt to walk away, and the club feel the need to say he and his partner are safe? hilarious
What a weird statement to say "Liam and his partner Evana are safe". What's that got to do with it? of course he's safe. What about the other bloke? is he safe too?
This would indeed suck, but still as much as I am a football and Fremantle fanatic, I just value doing other things that are free in life. If I can’t watch a game on tv I’d happily listen to it on the wireless whilst taking the family fishing or playing in the park. Paying to watch sport on tv...
haha
yeah I got over those easy because they didnt need me to pay for something that was once free.
We're a sporting nation - i dont agree with paying for something that was always free.
I'm too old fashioned and stubborn. i will absolutely not, never pay to watch the simple things that should be free - starting with sport. Just cant bring myself to do it. Id rather go without. whether it's our club, the scorchers or the Australian cricket team, we just dont watch it in our...
Been a massive fan of JT since the day we drafted him. Just love his attack on the footy.
Gee i hope he again excels this year - but he will be the hunted this year so will have to step up again, it wont just happen. A bit like for Amiss last year.
It's not going to be easy for the 2 kids but...
Meh, I dont really feel the draft mattered this year - kids we pick up arent going to help us on field for a while. As long as we bring in good people and hard workers to drive culture that's all that matters.
The win was bringing in the top up talent (Bolton) during the trade period.
This is just a classic Fremantle moment. One of those moments where we tie our own shoelaces together and wonder why we trip up.
No doubt he'll show us up now as one of those "why the hell did we let him go" players.
The way he leaps at the ball and marks it is closely reminiscent of Fyfe. I’m sure he won’t be that great but they’re things you can’t teach. Hopefully he has mongrel in him like his dad and uncle. Would love to see him on a wing or high HF
Bit harsh - I thought Logue was great when his body gave him a solid run at things. He gave us good versatility. I agree he would likely struggle for a game at times but he's no potato. He was also great for our culture at the club, which is often underrated. Thankfully the club has openly...
I really dont think it mattered who we selected this year. We're not in the phase where we'd give games to any draftee, unless they're a superstar number 1 type pick up.
Even if we selected Bo Allen or Berry, they would be in the same position of not getting a game (at least consistently)...
Crossing my fingers we're the ones to play in Bunno. Watching our purps at the redeveloped Hands Oval will be awesome. Bringing football back to the burbs and the people! As a SW resident, this will be such a great thing for the kids.
I actually really like Narkle. Have watched quite a few of his games. I think it was his first or second game for Port he came on as sub and basically won them the game. Pretty clean, tough and can kick well.
If nothing more than a depth player and someone to help Bolton settle in, I think...
I think some people need to lighten up on the fella (pardon the pun).
Part of what makes him so dominant is his build. He's never going to naturally be a ripped athlete and he looked just like this when he was winning F&B's. May not be as easy as you think for someone of his build to lose the...
