Then he leaves 2 years later like Lobb. If people don’t won’t to be at the club, then I believe it’s best to get them out

Or he stays like Papley and Ryan O'keefe


Would have been a bold call though, was a RFA the year after

Would have got pick 6 the year after as compo anyway

 

[freo_leo29]

Sebba polled the last 6 games and 8 of the last 10

Gulden polled 9/10 of the last games

So less than we got, we got 6 and 19 for Neale and 30 iirc


Wonder how we get the Hogan trade done if we don't lose Neale

 

[Bender571]

Every winner has that happen. There were games Fyfe polled when shouldn’t have

Anything even close to that example though?

 

[King Tenz]

I legit thought he had 2 years left this whole time. lol wow.

We wouldn’t have paid massive overs for hogan if we’d kept Neale, which in hindsight would have been best for us.

I still to this day do not know how we were so shite in 2017-18 with Mundy, Fyfe and Neal in the midfield.

 

[Bender571]

Neale probably does deserve two Brownlows though. Cripps should have been ineligible last year when Neale came second.

 

[MadMundy]

I'm really happy for him, he's had a fantastic season and he deserves to be rewarded for it, hope he caps it off with a premiership this year.

Daicos winning would have been the worst outcome, it's bad enough hearing the commentators suck him off but if he had won the Brownlow it would have been "OH MY GOD HOW GOOD IS NICK DAICOS HE WON THE BROWNLOW AT 20 YEARS OF AGE HE'S LITERALLY THE GREATEST PLAYER OF ALL TIME"

In hindsight I'm glad Cripps won it. Probably deserves a brownlow in his career but Neale is no where near good enough to be a 3x brownlow medallist

At the same time, **** Patrick Cripps.

 

[stax on the mull]

And was robbed of a few as well. 37 touches in a win vs Gold Coast and zero votes.

Caleb got 10 in the coaches votes for that game too.

I still to this day do not know how we were so shite in 2017-18 with Mundy, Fyfe and Neal in the midfield.

We were playing Mundy forward while trying to fast track some youngsters, we also had massive injury crisis in each year, always started well but everything fell apart after it

 

[freo_leo29]

Daicos probably romps it in if he doesn't get injured tbh

Will be hard to beat next year

Give me 2015 Fyfe over that soft marshmallow.
It’s amazing how biased the media is.
There was no hype for Fyfe in a season where Fremantle were first from halfway through the season.

Idk I remember there being a lot of hype. He was the outright favourite before the season even started. He polled 45 votes in the 22 games he played in the back half of 2014 + first half of 2015.

Not the hype that Daicos was absolutely being pumped up for.

There was a lot of hype for Fyfe in 2015, he was favourite the whole year and priced under $2

 

[stax on the mull]

Couple of comparisons between the umpires and the coaches votes, which I guess is why the Brownlow is a unique award.

I mean there certainly was...but also Fyfe had been dominant for the past two years before and would've won the brownlow in 2014 if he wasn't suspended. And also he was singnificantly more experienced thatn Daicos is right now. A second year player performing at that level is gonna be a tad more exciting than a 5th year player.

Second one has a bunch of Key position players which makes sense, less likely to poll votes

Congrats Lachie...interesingly, they referred to the great man (Fyfe) as Lachie's mate.
