    Prediction Changes v Hawthorn (Round 18)

    As it stands changes obviously depend on test results for Walker, Pearce and Draper. 1. If Pearce passes he is in for Draper and we finally get our 'full' strength backline (still fairly underdone). 2. If Pearce fails and Draper passes there is no change 3. If both Pearce and Drapes fails it's...

    Speculation Jake Waterman trade value?

    For each club thinking they will get him for free next year, you would have to realise 10 clubs will be chasing his signature so it's not like he becomes yours if you dont trade this year. Being a pre-agent though and the sale that should happen for the eagles, top 15 pick seems fair if he...

    Coach Justin Longmuir Pt 2

    He would be serious top priority to get on board, existing relationship with JL, still a great analyst, stays in footy but judging by his drive by on the media he might be happy sitting on the back bench while staying in Perth. Only downside would be eagle flogs telling us when we won our flags...

    Have on relatively good authority that you are correct, it was Williams it was directed at and the words were 'you've had your say'. This is coming from a reporter in the rooms. Also that currently journo's aren't 100% sure but its thought the texts were from Williams and also Barrass, still...

    Coach Justin Longmuir Pt 2

    I think if Graham was to go to West Coast we would look within and promote Mzungu to a line coach, potentially shuffling Boyd and Corey as we do it to keep it fresh for them. Would allow us to place Corbett on as a development coach and keep him in the club.

    Toast Welcome to Freo Hayden Young – Fremantle’s 1st 2019 National Draft Pick [Pick #7]

    What we are seeing here is some early days Bont type stuff, his off season should just be watching Bont tapes on repeat on his stoppage work because every other facet of his game matches what the Bont can do. Elite inside, elite outside, elite overhead and elite delivery to the forward 50. Him...

    Toast Clutch Moments

    Not to revise some painful thoughts but if you take yourself back to the Carlton game last 10 minutes, Draper faced those exact same moments getting caught out 1v1 against Curnow with the opposition coming hard and lost out. This time he stood up and asserted himself (be it against a lesser...

    And you can bank that their first is off the table of the trade and there is no way tigers are happy with their 2nd round pick in the 20s. Just can't see them managing a deal while Freo sit there with the right picks and pressing for him as well.

    Win Prizes Port, Pies & Saints 2024 Death Ride

    Dont lose the passion for the death ride team! With some rounds under the belt we can close in the parameters on these teams and it still looks good! -Saints have shown they can play Ross/Freo 2012 footy and then Ross/Freo 2016-18 in the same game of footy, right in that 7-14 bracket. -Pies...

    ...need another 3 kids, we need the best kid. A goal kicking half forward gun who plays from round 1. We need the quality over more kids to develop. *This is very much dependant on what players are actually available from the draft and I am a hard no if it's just another great midfielder. But...

    Prediction Changes: Round 4 Vs Carlton

    Think Ras gets another week in the WAFL, no point playing him sub and missing out on experience he could be getting from a full four quarters in a tough game. Let him gather more confidence in his game so when he does sub or get a call up he is overflowing with it instead of showing the...

    Welcome Welcome Josh Draper!! - 2022 Cat B Rookie List

    Cox on return takes Hughes because Draper just looks all class. He adds another really decisive and clean layer to the backline. It's scary how identical his style is to Johnson. Glad (not for the injuries) that he has a good amount of runway in the team with Cox and McDonald out. Should give...

    Some absolute wild ideas first up here gang that I just have to put down to it’s the first changes thread of the year and everyone’s still a bit giddy from the great win. Banners back?? Are you people mad? Hard no to watching him and Hughes try and kick their way through a zone, and he’s a...

    Absolutely here for this ride, really lets me tolerate a poorer year with something else to focus on not that I think it will be anything dire. Made last year much more painful that is for sure. Ready to bring the bad juju (not injuries) straight for all 3 teams. Clear ways this can happen for...

    Look this could be a bit of fan fiction playing out in my mind and hey why not reality is what you make of it and all... I think our goal posts in developing young players as fans needs to shift and align with what I believe the club is beginning to do and bring to the club culture and...

    Preview 2024 Best 22 Discussion

    This is my bet for our best 22, we have decent coverage across the pitch, great flexibility to shuffle spots, good height and speed throughout and a pretty dangerous forward set up. Depth for injuries and poor performance covering all spots as well, couple being unlucky to miss. Brodie: direct...

    Position 2024 Fantasy Forwards

    I don't think the coaches see them like for like in terms of replacement value, Switkowski is much more impact and pushing up to stoppages. As great as he is its why he is rated 'elite' for champion data because he gets into stoppages, gets more ball and tackle numbers then most small forwards...

    Position 2024 Fantasy Forwards

    I think yes he's going to be in the best 22 and rotate in that high half forward role pushing up to stoppage just like Shultz, I wouldn't be super confident he stays best 22 though. One or two off games though he will be out for Longmuir's safe card of Banfiled. Has great pressure and has looked...

    Oppo Camp Former Freo player watch

    If Henry becomes a proper inside mid for the saints I might just give up watching footy because apparently I have lost all ability to understand the game and player abilities (saying like I have that ability now...). I know Ross is a great coach, but surely no-one is great enough to turn Henry...

    Training Preseason 2024

    Also another mobile key forward in development if Corbett and Kuek go and Davies and Murphy show a bit at Peel. Swing key position players with great size and athleticism have there uses. Although I think Kuek will get another go if he gets on the park. Forward talent with plenty to work with...

    800 over 3 years without even blinking, trigger option to extend and increase two more years at a mil if he keeps himself from trouble. Everything you want a small forward to be and completely transitions us forward from SonSons retirement, worth the risk. (Very very big caveat that it would...

    That is the winning ticket for sure. Although I wouldn't be certain Treacy will want to spend his career in the 2's and i would expect he would start to look elsewhere. I don't think it would work but I definitely would still love to see if we could line up Treacy, Amiss, McDonald, Darcy and...

    Going to offer up an alternative use (that's been mentioned a bit but not in depth) of our 3 first rounders next year other then getting Logan McDonald. The likeliest event is our 3 first rounders are about 10, 15 and 17. I am very much aware of the folly of trying to guess this far ahead but...

    Between him and Gordon, gave us depressed Toffees something to cheer about! The 3rd goal though was an absolute pearler of a team goal especially with Newcastle pressing (although the game was close to wrapped up). Every player touching it in the build up.

    As an Everton fan the deduction is so unbelievably unjust it’s wild. The biggest deduction in PL history for overspending the cap on new stadium costs only, nothing beneficial on field, that benefits the PL, due to market crashes from Covid and a war between Ukraine and Russia. Bigger deduction...

    Universal Love Welcome to Freo - Heath Chapman (Pick 14 2020 National Draft)

    As i have hoped, Chapman is staying with backs which also just confirms to me that Young is spending more time in the middle, lose nothing down back and gain a heap in the middle [emoji1317]

    100%, think he is a great pick up for us especially this late of a pick. I actually really rated Shiel when he went to the bombers, bit sad his game turned to mud but that’s more on the bombers then him. Sent from my iPhone using BigFooty.com

    Toast Welcome To Freo Cooper Simpson (pick 35 2023 AFL Draft)

    I don’t want to bring the vibes down on this guy at all so please carry on and I mean this in a good way, looks very Dylan Shiel how he runs and bursts. The Gws Shiel and definitely not the Bombers Shiel [emoji23] Great point of difference for our mids who all lack great burst.
