Priority 1 - try trade in Warner and Shai Bolton this trade period using all 4 1st round picks (3 -2024 and 1-2025)
Priority 2 - if can’t get Warner in then try for shai bolton (2 picks) and baker (1 pick).
Priority 3 - Shai Bolton (2 picks) and use 1 pick on best available small forward in...
Ok…my thoughts are as follows:
(1) when Fyfe is ready to go, either play him as a midfielder or not at all. His pay is linked to his past dominance as a midfielder and he has won 2 Brownlow medals as a midfielder;
(2) Jackson has amazing mobility for a man of his size and could be developed as...
2 firsts for Jackson is plenty for an out of contract player. If we throw in a second rounder (with no additional pick back) it would be dumb. Would rather let west Coast have him than pay ridiculous overs.
Really hope Logue stays. I watch him on the podcast with David Mundy and he seems to love freo and genuinely gets along with his teammates. Love his work on-field and he always seems to give great effort. Elite athleticism as well. No way I get rid of a guy like that.
If Acres is leaving, I’d...

If Acres is leaving, I’d put Chapman on the wing. I’d then...
I was thinking that either a mid sized forward or a tall full back would be good. Will need someone to be able to replace Alex Pearce next time he gets injured.
If the game is going to be wet, I would be leaving out Tabs. I like what Tabs provides, but Logue provides a good contest and is a better defensive presence.
Too early to bring back Chapman if it’s a torn hammie.
Switta is tough and applies good pressure so I would bring him in over Tucker...
Hi All!
congrats on the win! You guys smashed em! Sorry for intrusion. My bro is a die hard bullies supporter (WA based) and am trying to get him tickets for the big dance! Me and other Bro keen to go along with him if possible. I know it’s random but is anyone able to provide us with their...
I think he was suggesting there should be no “at least”. That Naitanui when fit is undoubtedly better than both.
I think it’s a toss up between Grundy and NicNat. Each have different strengths where they are superior to the other. Gawn is awesome but just shaded IMO
My best 22, based purely on potential:
F - Henry, Hogan, Shultz
HF - Walters, Taberner, Mundy
C - Bewley, Brayshaw, Fredericks
HB - Wilson, Logue, Young
B - Ryan, Pearce, Hamling
Ruck - Serong, Lobb, Fyfe
Interchange - Hill, Acres, Aish, Cerra.
This team would be great to watch. It would...
Defenders - Glen Jakovich
Midfielders - Dustin Martin, Chris Judd, Nat Fyfe, Adam Goodes, Andrew McLeod, Brody Grundy (in my opinion the best ruckman of the last 30 years).
Forwards - Buddy Franklin, Matthew Pavlich, Eddy Betts
Please excuse the intrusion all.
I’m not surprised you guys are keen on Brad Hill.
He is an elite runner and breaks the lines better than any player at the Dockers since...well... Stephen Hill. While I reckon you guys should have a crack, it will definitely come at a high cost, especially...
I’d try and keep Lachie if possible. If he really wanted to go then I’d want us to get get 4 and 22 off Brisbane. I’d then take 4 and 5 to the draft and go for both Kings. Or King and Rankine
You may be right about a free kick not being paid by anyone else other than an umpire, but the umpire once sought instructions from Essendon player Ty Zantuk on what he wanted to do after bumping Matthew Carr
I have a question regarding the final stages of this controversial game.
After the siren sounded and Stephen Baker then kicked a point, which resulted in the game being tied, does anyone else recall the umpire then asking Stephen Baker whether he wanted to take another kick for goal?
This was...
Haha - whoops! Yeah I'd bring in Cerra or Banfield for Fyfe 2.0! McCarthy and S.Hill are talents but I omitted them as I want them to be more desperate - as I think it would bring out their best. Btw - I realise the team I've picked would not win too many games. But this is a rebuild!
Agree if he turns out like Scott it would be a win.
Not sure why the media keep comparing him to Scott. I don't see similarities myself, apart from the fact they are both around the same height, play midfield and have dark brown hair. In terms of creating space, Pendlebury has a really good...
I thought the same initially, but then I thought about some of the intangibles with Brayshaw:
(1) he genuinely wants to be at Freo
(2) he already displays genuine leadership potential
When you run a football team from the most isolated city in the world and a future leader of the club who is...
I'm a Dockers supporter (with Eagles my second favourite team) and I reckon you guys did great in the draft. Oscar Allen is going to be a star and you guys were fortunate to get him when you did. While I was surprised you didn't go for a midfielder at 13, I also really liked the selection of...
I have seen all the highlights and while I'm sure I'm in the minority, I actually think Paddy Dow has the most star power.
There is something about the way he gets in there and challenges for the ball that seem elite. Once he puts on another 10kg, if he keeps up that aggression and work-rate I...
Picks 2 and 5 should be used on players who are potential generational talents.
They should not be spent on key forwards and backs who could potentially be solid 200 game stalwarts. I'd place Naughton in this category. The kid can obviously play but I see so much more potential with the...
Will be happy with two mids. My top 5 are:
Rayner/LDU
Dow
Cerra
Stephenson
Fogarty
If we look for a tall at 5 we should consider Brander. Anything else likely to be reach.
Is everyone of the same view we should go for 2 mids?
