We payout whatever the agreed payout in the contract is, regardless of when we fire him - that's the beauty of this from the club's perspective and from JLo's perspective. The payout is no longer linked to the remainder of the contract because there is no longer any notion of the remainder of...

It's a great deal for all involved but hugely open for misinterpretation. The club haven't helped with the 2026 and beyond messaging. I'm sure they thought this would settle some of the external noise, but it's got most of the doubters in the fanbase believing he's signed some mega contract and...

Draper is the real deal. Going to be a huge asset for us.

I have a genuine love of Switkowski, my favourite Docker of the last five years, but I'm not going to try to pretend he's up there with any of the four you've listed. Frederick has the potential, but he has to get more involved in the game - he has a great highlights reel but goes missing for...

I know - but I couldn't leave out Treacy and Amiss - or Allen and Waterman.

Here we go - one of the outstanding ones - and ignoring injuries Eagles/Dockers B: Ryan - Pearce - Hough HB: Clark - McGovern - Baker C: Hewett - Young - Brayshaw HF: Bolton - Treacy - Switkowski F: Ryan - Allen - Waterman R: Darcy - Serong - Yeo I: Cox - Kelly - Jackson - Amiss I...

Guess I'll take Switta again - fourth time in five years.

As much as I agreed with you earlier, I will now take issue in part with this post. As per my post earlier, I think the one genuine reason for our implosion last year was the loss of Pearce who is anything but merely solid but unspectacular. He is, by a mile, the most underrated Freo player...

Far be it for me to side with our feline friend - but by any measure last year was a complete implosion. I was still monitoring flights and hotel prices for a qualifying final in Sydney and Geelong in Week 21. To drop to 10th (I think we sometimes overlook that we didn't even finish 9th) was a...

I'm not going to get into a pi$$ing match about who is better than who. I just know that going into this season my wish list is as follows: Freo win the flag Treacy wins the Coleman Bont wins the Brownlow It will be an absolute scandal if Bont doesn't win one and he is hands down my...

I've seen those reports on some of the click bait football sites - but the more reputable local journos have said that is wide of the mark. I'm sure City will have first refusal and a sell on clause (20% seems about standard now), but I can't recall any other situations where the buy-back clause...

To be fair, the only fans who were saying it was a good price were the Hull fans - who were clearly well placed to judge. I can't pretend to be an authority on how he played last season, but I thought he missed large chunks of the season through injury and was often played as a right sided...

Sadly I can't see us holding onto Delap after this season - but unless we agreed some dumb buy back for peanuts clause with City when we bought him then we will make a tidy profit that will fund 2-3 new players if we stay up - or an entirely new team if we're back in the Championship. Amazing...

She’s clearly a couple of inches taller than Mim.

1: Pearce - no coincidence we fell into a heap when he was out last year. Sure, Darcy and Treacy were huge misses as well at the end of the year, but we've won games with Darcy missing regularly for the last couple of years and in the games we lost in the last four weeks we did by conceding far...

Read this at least four times getting more annoyed that you'd missed putting in a Freo player - then it dawned on me about Bolton. Going to take some getting used to us having signed one of the best players in the comp!!

Lot's of comments that we're this year's Luton. I get it that we've been out of the Prem for a while - but what most don't realise is that our newish owners have over $3bn in their back pockets and selling out a 30k stadium every week gives us much more room in FFP than Luton. We will certainly...

Shaping up that we've made some excellent investments in the summer (add Jacob Greaves to this as well). Not sure about our new keeper yet - but it's not as though he had much to do today.

I read an article on a uk media website earlier (one of those that died was a young female British lawyer) that apparently there is a relationship between the harm methanol can cause and the physical size and stature of the person who consumes it. Smaller women tend to be more likely to die from...

By my estimate I think they have to screw us in 15 rookie drafts to make good the absolute buttf***ing that was Wellar for Pick 2 (Brayshaw).

Melting because we’ve lost our fourth choice ruck in a calculated list management move - when: (A) we’ve sold the farm on our top two rucks already (B) there’s a mounting bank of evidence that rucks are not that important when it comes to flag changes (Lions were imperious in the GF with Darcy...

Allow me to introduce you to this emerging player called Shai something or other...I've heard he may be good enough to probably take Banfield's spot. There's also this young lad Simpson who plays a similar role.

The SA U-18 coach likened him to Charlie Curnow and Jeremy Cameron as a mobile tall who likes to get up the ground to connect play: https://www.sen.com.au/news/2024/11/20/three-under-the-radar-sa-prospects-and-the-different-ruck-set-to-be-drafted

I’ve actually put off listening to it because I couldn’t bear it being a third poor album of theirs in a row. Having ‘discovered’ them as a 16 year old in 1991 just before Wish was released they were the soundtrack of my transition from adolescence into adult - and alongside The Chameleons are...

My sense is that because they've been sh1te off the field since inception then most people's instinctive response is to hate on the Suns. Is it the best logo and guernsey in the comp - no (best logo - Blues; best guernsey - Bombers/Tigers) Is it the worst - no (worst logo - Port/Bombers; worst...

I know complaining about the fixture is part of our DNA; but all up I'm happy with that fixture and think it's one of the best ones we've had in a long time. No trips to Butt**** Nowhere apart from Gather Round No trip to GABBA Three stretches where we stay in Perth for multiple weeks Six...

If she’s not AA we need to demand a royal commission. Absolute star and still so young.

Really good crowd building - many many more than H&A season

Good crowd building. Wind has thankfully dropped - was very strong about 90 minutes ago

Seems like I'm in the minority but I'm more than happy with what we paid. We offered 10/18, Tigers wanted 10/11 - we split the difference. With the trade valued as equivalent to Pick 4 - then to my simple brain I'm just asking myself - do I think Bolton is worth Pick 4? And the answer is...
